Answer : The molarity of the new solution is, 4.069 M

Solution : Given,

Molarity of KOH solution = 4 M

Volume of KOH solution = 2.5 L

Volume of water added = 1.8 L

First we have to calculate the volume of new solution.

Volume of new solution = volume of KOH solution + volume of water added

Volume of new solution = 2.5 L + 1.8 L = 4.3 L

Now we have to calculate the molarity of the new solution.

Formula used :

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

where,

$M_1$ = molarity of KOH solution

$M_2$ = molarity of new solution

$V_1$ = volume of KOH solution

$V_2$ = volume of new solution

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the molarity of the new solution.

$(7M)\times (2.5L)=M_2\times (4.3L)$

$M_2=4.069M$

Therefore, the molarity of the new solution is, 4.069 M

Explain how Beer’s law can be applied in food, drug or medical testing

KonstantinChe [14]

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

<em><u>Beer's Law is described as if a light passes from a solution, the concentration of the solution is directly proportional to the absorbance of light by that solution.</u></em>

Every element has a definite of absorbance of light.

In the testing of food, drugs or in medical testing, the light is passed from the sample.

Them transmitted light from these samples are measured. The difference between target light amount and transmitted light is the amount of absorbed light.

From this absorbed light value, we can identify an element in sample and its quantity.

Spectrophometry is based on this law.

Which of the following changes will decrease the total amount of gaseous solute able to be dissolved in a liter of liquid water?

Scrat [10]

A gaseous solute will <span> be able to be dissolve in a liter of liquid water by increasing the pressure of the gas. an example of this situation is the increase in solubility of carbon dioxide in sea water which turns it into an acidic environment for marines as pressure increases.</span>

ella [17]

Answer:

3.8x10⁻⁵ M

Explanation:

By the reaction given, the stoichiometry between FeCl3 and AgNO3 and AgCl is 1:3:3. The molar mass of AgCl is 143.32 g/mol, so the number of moles that was formed is:

n = mass/molar mass

n = 0.0036g/143.32g/mol

n = 2.51x10⁻⁵ mol

Thus, the number of moles of FeCl3 that had precipitated was:

1 mol of FeCl3 ------------ 3 moles of AgCl

x -------------2.51x10⁻⁵ mol

By a simple direct three rule:

x = 8.37x10⁻⁶ mol

The precipitation is a reversible reaction, and, for the AgCl, is has an equilibrium constant Kps = 1.8x10⁻¹⁰, then, the solubility, S, (the maximum concentration of the ions that will not precipitate) can be calculated:

S² = Kps

S = √1.8x10⁻¹⁰

S = 1.34x10⁻⁵ mol/L

The volume of the sample was 250 mL = 0.250 L, so the number of moles of Cl⁻ that was not precipitated is:

n = 1.34x10⁻⁵ mol/L*0.250 L

n = 3.35x10⁻⁶ mol

Because of the stoichiometry:

1 mol of FeCl3 ------ 3 moles of Cl-

y ------ 3.35x10⁻⁶ mol

By a simple direct three rule:

y = 1.12x10⁻⁶ mol of FeCl3

The total number of moles of FeCl3 is then:

n = x + y

n = 9.5x10⁻⁵ mol

The concentration is the number of moles dived by the volume:

9.5x10⁻⁵ /0.250 = 3.8x10⁻⁵ M
