A 51.24-g sample of Ba(OH)2 is dissolved in enough water to make 1.20 liters of solution. How many mL of this solution must be d

g100num [7]

Answer:

0.40 L

Explanation:

Calculation of the moles of $Ba(OH)_2$ as:-

Mass = 51.24 g

Molar mass of $Ba(OH)_2$ = 171.34 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{51.24\ g}{171.34\ g/mol}$

$Moles= 0.2991\ mol$

Volume = 1.20 L

The expression for the molarity is:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

$Molarity=\frac{0.2991\ mol}{1.20\ L}=0.24925\ M$

Thus,

Considering

$Molarity_{working\ solution}\times Volume_{working\ solution}=Molarity_{stock\ solution}\times Volume_{stock\ solution}$

Given that:

$Molarity_{working\ solution}=0.100\ M$

$Volume_{working\ solution}=1\ L$

$Volume_{stock\ solution}=?$

$Molarity_{stock\ solution}=0.24925\ M$

So,

$0.100\ M\times 1\ L=0.24925\ M\times Volume_{stock\ solution}$

$Volume_{stock\ solution}=\frac{0.100\times 1}{0.24925}\ L=0.40\ L$

<u>The volume of 0.24925M stock solution added = 0.40 L </u>

15 grams of sodium reacts with a certain amount of chlorine to yield 37 grams of sodium chloride, as shown below.

ale4655 [162]

Answer: 22g of chlorine would be needed to carry out this synthesis reaction

Explanation:

A synthesis reaction is one in which two or more than two elements combine together to forma single product.

$Na+Cl\rightarrow NaCl$

The atoms present in the reactants are found on the product side. According to the law of conservation of mass, the number of atoms on both sides of the arrow must be same as the total mass must be conserved.

15 grams of sodium reacts with 22 grams of chlorine to yield 37 grams of sodium chloride. Thus 22g of chlorine would be needed to carry out this synthesis reaction.

Leonard designed a parallel circuit to light two light bulbs. But his circuit doesn’t work. Which two items in the circuit must

klasskru [66]

Answer : When a parallel circuit is built the voltage across each of the components remains the same, also the total current passed is the equal to sum of the currents passing through each components in the circuits.

When 2 or more components are tried to be connected in parallel they maintain the same potential difference (in voltage) across their ends of the circuit.

The potential differences across the components are the observed to be same in magnitude, and they have identical polarities between them.

Then, this same voltage is applicable to all circuit components connected in parallel.

So, if each bulb is wired to the battery in a separate loop, the bulbs will be in parallel series.
