Calcium is a nontoxic metal that is used in supplements to maintain strong bones. Under high pressure conditions, over about 320

,000 atm, it has a simple cubic unit cell. How many atoms of Ca are present in each unit cell?

4 0

Explanation:

It is known that in a simple cubic unit cell the atoms are only present at the corner of the unit cell. This means that there are in total 8 atoms present in a simple cubic unit cell.

Therefore, in one simple cubic unit cell sharing of one atom is only \frac{1}{8}.

Hence, the total number of atoms in a unit cell will be as follows.

            8 \times \frac{1}{8} = 1

Thus, we can conclude that there is 1 calcium atom present in each unit cell.

What is the molarity of a NaOH solution if 28.2 mL of a 0.355 M H2SO4 solution is required to neutralize a 25.0-mL sample of the
Verdich [7]

Answer:

[NaOH} = 0.4 M

Explanation:

In a reaction of neutralization, we determine the equivalence point of the titration. In this case, we have a strong base and a strong acid.

(H₂SO₄, is considered strong, but the first deprotonation is weak)

2NaOH  +  H₂SO₄  →  Na₂SO₄  + 2H₂O

As we have 2 protons in the acid, we need 2 OH⁻ from the base to form 2 molecules of water.

In the equivalence point we know mmoles of base = mmoles of acid

Let's finish the excersise with the formula

25 mL . M NaOH = 28.2 mL  .  0.355M

M NaOH = (28.2 mL  .  0.355M) / 25 mL → 0.400

Calculate the mass of 0.00456 moles of (NH4)2SO4
Anna [14]
To find the mass you need to find the weight of a mol of the molecules by adding up the atomic mass.

N =  14.007 g/mol
H = 1.008 g/mol
S = 32.065 g/mol
O = 16 g/mol

2(14.007) + 8(1.008) + 32.065 + 4(16) = 132.143 g/mol

Now you know how much an entire mol weight you multiply it by how much you actually have 

0.00456 * 132.143 = 0.603 g
