What is the molariity of a 50.0 mL aqueous solution containing 10.0 grams of hydrogen peroxide, H2O2?
daser333 [38]

Answer:

6 mol/L

Explanation:

You should know or have the equation to solve for Molarity which is;

M = n/v          (M: Molarity) (n: moles of solute) (v: Liters of solute)

You can start off differently but I would start by converting the mL to L. This is your "v" value.

50.0 mL/ 1000 mL = <em>0.05 L</em>

Now, you have to convert grams to moles in order to solve for molarity (M).

1.) On the periodic table find the molecular weights of H and O.

H= 1.01 g/mol         O= 16.00 g/mol

2.) Multiply them and then add them together to have their combined molecular weights. (You have to multiply by 2 because of their equation; H2O2).

2(1.01) + 2(16.00)= 34.02 g/mol

3.) Now, you're going to use the "picket fence method" or whichever your teacher taught you to convert from grams to moles. This will be your "n" value. (I cannot show it on here without it looking weird, so my sincere apologies.)

10.0 g/ 34.02 g = <em>0.2939 mol</em>

<em />

4.)You are now going to plug in your answers into the equation for Molarity.

M= 0.2939 mol / 0.05 L = <em>5.878 mol/L</em>

5.) I am sure your professor might be a stickler so for sig figs sake when you multiply or divide use the smallest amount of sig figs you see which is 1. Round 5.878 to 6 mol/L

Sorry this explanation is very long let me know if you need a better more written out explanation.

* Need ASAP * Explain the relationship between percent composition, Empirical formula, and molecular formula.
sweet-ann [11.9K]

By dividing the percentage composition with the molar mass of that element we will get the empirical formula. Then using that empirical formula and formula mass we can find the molecular formula.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical properties of any substance are defined obviously by the different types and relative amounts of atoms constituting its primary entities (in case of covalent compounds the primary entities are molecules and ions in the event of ionic compounds).

A percent composition of any compound gives the mass percent of each element present in the compound; in addition to that frequently it is determined experimentally and utilized to derive an empirical formula of any compound. An empirical formula mass of any covalent compound could be comparable with the molar or molecular mass of a compound to acquire a molecular formula.

. In terms of potential energy, state why atoms tend to bond in nature?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. The type of chemical bond maximizes the stability of the atoms that form it. ... Covalent bonds form when sharing atoms results in the highest stability. Other types of bonds besides ionic and covalent chemical bonds exist, too.
