An organic solvent has a density of 1.31 g/mL. What volume is occupied by 57.5 g of the liquid?
Burka [1]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 43.89 mL</h3>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density} \\

From the question

mass = 57.5 g

density = 1.31 g/mL

We have

volume =  \frac{57.5}{1.31}  \\  = 43.89312977...

We have the final answer as

<h3>43.89 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

PLA is a bioplastic that is biodegradable. Explain how is is created and why it is biodegradable.
Ratling [72]

Explanation:

<h3>PLA is a polyester produced by fermentation under controlled conditions of a carbohydrate source like corn starch or sugarcane. ... The starch is then mixed with acid or enzymes and heated. This process “breaks” starch into dextrose (D-glucose), or corn sugar.</h3>

<h3>PLA is a polymer made from high levels of polylactic acid molecules. </h3><h3>For PLA to biodegrade, you must break up the polymer by adding </h3><h3>water to it (a process known as hydrolyzing). Heat and moisture are required for hydrolyzing to occur.</h3>

<h3>PLA consists of renewable raw materials and is biodegradable in industrial composting plants. </h3><h3>However, due to the lack of infrastructure, it is difficult to </h3><h3>compost PLA industrially or to</h3><h3> recycle it.</h3>

Given pH = 3.50 Find: [H3O+] and [OH-] Is this acidic, basic or neutral?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

           pH = 3.50

Unknown:

    concentration of [H₃0⁺] = ?

    concentration of [OH⁻] = ?

Solution:

In order to find the unknown, we use some simple expressions which best explains the pH scale and the equilibrium systems of aqueous solutions.

         pH = -log₁₀[H₃O⁺]

         [H₃O⁺] = inverse log₁₀ (-pH) = 10^{-pH} = 10^{-3.5}

          [H₃O⁺] = 3.2 x 10⁻⁴moldm⁻³

       

For the  [OH⁻]:

       we use : pOH = -log₁₀ [OH⁻]

     Recall: pOH + pH = 14

                  pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 3.5 = 10.5

  Now we plug the value of pOH into pOH = -log₁₀ [OH⁻]

                                   [OH⁻] = 10^{-pOH}

                        [OH⁻] = 10^{-10.5} = 3.2 x 10⁻¹¹moldm⁻³

The solution is acidic as the concentration of H₃0⁺ is more than that of the OH⁻ ions.
