15.0 g of Fe and 25.0 g of sand are added to 250.0 g of water. a. Determine the percent mass of Fe, sand, and water in the mixtu
lana [24]

Answer:

A. percentage mass of iron = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand  = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 86.205%

B. (Iron + sand + water) -------> ( iron + sand) ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand

Explanation:

A. Percentage mass of the mixtures:

Total mass of mixture = (15.0 + 25.0 + 250.0) g =290.0 g

percentage mass of iron = 15/290 * 100% = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand = 25/290 * 100% = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 250/290 * 100% = 86.205%

B. Flow chart of separation procedure

(Iron + sand + water) -------> separation by filtration using filter paper and funnel to remove water --------> ( iron + sand) -----------> separation using magnet to remove iron ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand by magnetization of iron will have the highest amount of error because during the process, some iron particles may not readily be attracted to the magnet as they may have become interlaced in-between sand grains. Also, some sand particle may also be attracted to the magnet as they are are borne on iron particles.

What is the concentration of H3O+ ions in saliva if [OH-] = 4.22 x 10-10 M? Provide the pH and the classification of this sample
OLEGan [10]

pH=4.625

The classification of this sample of saliva : acid

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The water equilibrium constant (Kw) is the product of concentration

the ions:

Kw = [H₃O⁺] [OH⁻]

Kw value at 25° C = 10⁻¹⁴

It is known [OH-] =  4.22 x 10⁻¹⁰ M

then the concentration of H₃O⁺:

\tt 10^{-14}=4.22\times 10^{-10}\times [H_3O^+]\\\\(H_3O^+]=\dfrac{10^{-14}}{4.22\times 10^{-10}}=2.37\times 10^{-5}

pH=-log[H₃O⁺]\tt pH=5-log~2.37=4.625

Saliva⇒acid(pH<7)

Identify the base-conjugate acid pair in this balanced equation:
Elan Coil [88]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

NH3/NH4+

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

From the equation;

NH3(aq)+HNO3(aq)→NH4+(aq)+NO3−(aq)  

NH3 is the base; while NH4+ is the conjugate acid  

HNO3 is the acid; while NO3- is the conjugate base  

  • The conjugate base of a Brønsted-Lowry acid is species that is formed after an acid donates a proton while the conjugate acid of a Brønsted-Lowry base is the species formed after a base accepts a proton.
