A chemist adds of a sodium thiosulfate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of sodium thiosulfate the chemi

schepotkina [342]

This is a incomplete question.The complete question is:

A chemist adds 180.0 ml of a 1.77 mol/L of sodium thiosulfate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of sodium thiosulfate the chemist has added to the flask. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: 50.4 g

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Moles of solute}={\text{Molarity of the solution}}\times{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .....(1)

Molarity of sodium thiosulfate solution = 1.77 M

Volume of sodium thiosulfate solution = 180.0 mL = 0.1800 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of sodium thiosulfate}={1.77}\times{0.1800}=0.319moles$

Mass of sodium thiosulfate = $moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.319moles\times 158.11g/mol=50.4g$

Thus 50.4 g of sodium thiosulfate the chemist has added to the flask.

The boiling point elevation of an aqueous sucrose solution is found to be 0.39°C.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

130.4 grams of sucrose, would be needed to dissolve in 500 g of water.

Explanation:

Colligative property of boiling point elevation:

ΔT = Kb . m . i

In this case, i = 1 (sucrose is non electrolytic)

ΔT = Kb . m

0.39°C = 0.512°C/m . m

0.39°C /0.512 m/°C = m

0.762 m (molality means that this moles, are in 1kg of solvent)

If in 1kg of solvent, we have 0.712 moles of sucrose, in 500 g, which is the half, we should have, the hallf of moles, 0.381 moles

Molar mass sucrose = 342.30 g/m

Molar mass . moles = mass

342.30 g/m . 0.381 m = 130.4 g

The acceleration of a sprinter is 10 m/s2. The force exerted on the starting blocks is 650 N. What is the mass of the sprinter?

jek_recluse [69]

The relation between force, mass of an object and its acceleration is given by following equation

F = mass of object X acceleration

The unit of Force is Newton (N)

unit of acceleration is ms⁻²

unit of mass if Kg

[all these are SI units]

Mass of object = $\frac{Force}{acceleration}$

mass of sprinter = $\frac{650}{10}=65kg$
