What volume of solution must be added to 4.0 mol of NaCl to make a 1.2 M solution?

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 3.3 \ liters}}}$

Explanation:

Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter.

$molarity=\frac{moles \ of \ solute}{liters \ of \ solution}}$

The solution has a molarity of 1.2 M or 1.2 moles per liter. There are 4.0 moles of NaCl, the solute. We don't know the liters of solution, so we can use x.

molarity= 1.2 mol/L
moles of solute= 4.0 mol
liters of solution =x

Substitute the values into the formula.

$1.2 \ mol/L = \frac{4.0 \ mol}{x}$

Since we are solving for x, we must isolate the variable. Begin by cross multiply (multiply the 1st numerator and 2nd denominator, then the 1st denominator and 2nd numerator.

$\frac {1.2 \ mol/L}{1}=\frac{ 4.0 \ mol}{x}$

$4.0 \ mol *1=1.2 \ mol/L *x$

$4.0 \ mol = 1.2 \ mol/L *x$

x is being multiplied by 1.2 moles per liter. The inverse of multiplication is division, so divide both sides by 1.2 mol/L

$\frac{4.0 \ mol}{1.2 \ mol/L} = \frac{1.2 \ mol/L *x}{1.2 \ mol/L}$

$\frac{4.0 \ mol}{1.2 \ mol/L}=x$

The units of moles (mol) will cancel.

$\frac{4.0 }{1.2 } \ L =x$

$3.33333333 \ L=x$

The original measurements both have 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, this is the tenths place.

The 3 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 3 in the tenths place.

$3.3 \ L\approx x$

Approximately <u>3.3 liters of solution</u> are needed to make a 1.2 M solution with 4.0 moles of sodium chloride.

Write a structural formula for 1-pentanol, the alcohol derived from pentane, by making a substitution on one of the carbon atoms

DedPeter [7]

To yield an alcohol from an alkane, one reaction could be from alkyl halide through hydrolysis reaction. The alkyl halide should be pentyl chloride. When you add water to it, the OH⁻ ion will replace Cl to make 1-pentanol, while the Cl⁻ ion binds with H⁺ to form HCl. The main product is pentanol, while the by-product is HCl.

What is the percentage strength (w/w) of a solution made by dissolving 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 ml of water?

kiruha [24]

Percent strength (% w/w) of a solution is defined as the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of the solute, potassium chloride = 62.5 g

Volume of water (solution) = 187.5 ml

We know that the density of water = 1 g/ml

Therefore, the mass corresponding to the given volume of water

= 187.5 ml * 1 g/1 ml = 187.5 g

We have a solution of 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 g water

Therefore, amount of solute in 100 g of water= 62.5 * 100/187.5 = 33.33

The percentage strength = 33.33 %
