To convert measurements in the metric system you can move the decimal point left or right why does this work?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Because when you move the decimal point once, it it equal to 10 and to convert in the metric system, you must multiply or divide by 10. For example, when converting 4 centimeters to millimeters, you can multiply by 10 to get 40 millimeters or you can move the decimal point to the right and add another 0 to get 40.

A person suffering from hyponatremia has a sodium ion concentration in the blood of 0.116 M and a total blood volume of 4.7 L .
klemol [59]

Explanation:

Normal moles of Na^{+} = volume × normal concentration

                              = 4.7 × 0.139 = 0.6533 mol

Moles of Na^{+} in hyponatremia blood = volume × hyponatremia concentration

                              = 4.7 × 0.116 = 0.5452 mol

Moles of NaCl to be added = moles of extra Na^{+} needed

                            = 0.6533 mol - 0.5452 mol = 0.1081 mol

Mass of NaCl = moles × molar mass of NaCl

                        = 0.1081 mol × 58.443

                        = 6.317g

                        = 6.32 g (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that mass of sodium chloride would need to be added to the blood is 6.32 g.

The normal boiling point of a substance is defined to be the temperature at which the liquid phase of the substance is in equili
boyakko [2]

Answer:

ΔSv = 0.1075 KJ/mol.K

Explanation:

Binary solution:

∴ a: solvent

∴ b: solute

in equilibrium:

  • μ*(g) = μ(l) = μ* +RTLnXa....chemical potential (μ)

⇒ Ln (1 - Xb) = ΔG/RT

∴ ΔG = ΔHv - TΔSv

⇒ Ln(1 -Xb) = ΔHv/RT - ΔSv/R

∴ Xb → 0:

⇒ Ln(1) = ΔHv/RT - ΔSv/R

∴ T = T*b....normal boiling point

⇒ 0 = ΔHv/RT*b - ΔSv/R

⇒ ΔSv = (R)(ΔHv/RT*b)

⇒ ΔSv = ΔHv/T*b

∴ T*b = 80°C ≅ 353 K

⇒ ΔSv = (38 KJ/mol)/(353 K)

⇒ ΔSv = 0.1075 KJ/mol.K

A + B = AB
Ahat [919]

The greatest amount of AB would be produced if the equilibrium constant of the reaction is equal to 1.0 \;X \;10^5. Hence, option D is correct.

<h3>What is an equilibrium constant?</h3>

A number that expresses the relationship between the amounts of products and reactants present at equilibrium in a reversible chemical reaction at a given temperature.

The equilibrium constant expression is a mathematical relationship that shows how the concentrations of the products vary with the concentration of the reactants.

If the value of K is greater than 1, the products in the reaction are favoured. If the value of K is less than 1, the reactants in the reaction are favoured.

Hence, option D is correct.
