Answer: 7.6% KCl

Explanation: Mass of solute is given as 13.6 grams and the mass of solution is 180 grams. The question asks to calculate the solution concentration, expressed as a percent by mass.

The formula for percent by mass is:

% by mass = \frac{solute}{solution}*100

Let's plug in the values in the formula and do the calculations.

% by mass = \frac{13.6g}{180g}*100  = 7.6%

So, the correct choice is C) 7.6% KCl.

What reagent is <br>used to test for starch<br>​
Elodia [21]

Answer:

iodine

Explanation:

In the presence of starch, iodine turns a blue/black colour. It is possible to distinguish starch from glucose (and other carbohydrates) using this iodine solution test. For example, if iodine is added to a peeled potato then it will turn black. Benedict's reagent can be used to test for glucose.

Nuetrik [128]

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

<em>Step 1</em>. Write the <em>condensed structural  formula</em> for 2,3-dimethylbutane.

(CH_3)_2CHCH(CH_3)_2

<em>Step 2</em>. Write the <em>molecular formula</em>.

C_6H_14

<em>Step 3</em>. Write the <em>unbalanced chemical equation</em>.

C_6H_14 + O_2 → CO_2 + H_2O

<em>Step 4</em>. Pick the <em>most complicated-looking formula</em> (C_6H_14) and balance its atoms (C and H).

<em>1</em>C_6H_14 + O_2 → <em>6</em>CO_2 + <em>7</em>H_2O

<em>Step 5</em>. Balance the <em>remaining atoms</em> (O).

1C_6H_14 + (<em>19/2</em>)O_2 → 6CO_2 + 7H_2O

Oops! <em>Fractional coefficients</em>!

<em>Step 6</em>. <em>Multiply all coefficients by a number</em> (2) to give integer coeficients..

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

Which answer choice lists the number and type of elements in a compound in the way that is close to their actual arrangement?
alexandr1967 [171]

The chemical formula of a compound express the atoms by which the molecule is formed and the ratio of the atoms in which they are combined.

The space filling model of a compound describe the electron density in the compound of each atom.

The ball and stick arrangement of a compound describe the way in which the molecules are present in three dimensions.

The structural formula state the number of atoms present in the molecule, the type of element or atom present in the molecule and the way in which they are arranged closely which is the bond.

Thus only the structural formula only will cover all the options as stated.

Liula [17]

The question is incomplete, here is a complete question.

An arctic weather balloon is filled with 27.8 L of helium gas inside a prep shed. The temperature inside the shed is 13 ⁰C. The balloon is then taken outside, where the temperature is -9 ⁰C. Calculate the new volume of the balloon. You may assume the pressure on the balloon stays constant at exactly 1 atm. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer : The new volume of the balloon is 25.7 L

Explanation :

Charles's Law : It is defined as the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

V\propto T

or,

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

where,

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 27.8 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 13^oC=273+13=286K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = -9^oC=273+(-9)=264K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{27.8L}{286K}=\frac{V_2}{264K}

V_2=25.7L

Therefore, the new volume of the balloon is 25.7 L
