The formula that we will be using is:

total salt / total solution = .10
Let a be the ml of the first solution

And let b be the ml of the second solution
.25a + .05b / a + b = .10
Also:

a + b = 1400

a = 1400 - b
So substitute:
.25 x (1400 - b) + .05b / 1400 = .10

350 - .25b + 0.05b/ 1400 = .10

350 - .2b / 1400 = .10
350 - .2b = .10 x 1400

.2b = 350 - 140

.2b = 210

b = 1050

a = 1400 - b

a = 1400 - 1050

= 350 mL

How much excess reactant remains from the reaction of 8.3 g of sodium and 4.5 g of chlorine?
Orlov [11]
Sodium:
moles = mass/RFM = 8.3/23 = 0.3608..

Chlorine:
moles = mass/RFM = 4.5/71 = 0.06

Ratio of Na to Cl is 2:1
So 0.06 x 2 = 0.12

So we know that the Na is in excess

Now we have to figure out by how much:

Mass = moles x RFM = 0.12 x RFM of 2NaCl = 0.12 x 58.5 = 7.4 (roughly)

Now to figure out by how much do 8.3 + 4.5 = 12.7 and do 12.7 - 7.4 = 5.3 (roughly)

So your answer is A

What is the electronic structure of an atom with a proton number 11 and mass number 23
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1

Explanation:

electron configuration of an element gives description of the distribution of electron in it's orbital of the atom, the superscript symbolize number of electron been hold by them.

The element here is sodium, which is a alkali metal

mass number =23

Number of proton= 11

electron must be seen in thelowest-energy subshell that is available in the the 3s orbital,

Hence, the electronic configuration is

1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1

What is the mass in grams of 5.25 x 1024 molecules of NaOH?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer: The mass is 348.8g

Explanation:

We begin by using Avogadro's number to convert the number of molecules of  Sodium Hydroxide to moles.

6.02 x 10∧23 molecules of NaOH -------> 1 mole of NaOH

∴ 5.25 x 10∧24 molecules of NaOH -------> 1/ 6.02 x 10∧23 x 5.25 x 10∧24 =

                                                                    8.72moles.

Having found the number of moles, we then move from moles to gram by using the molar mass of NaOH (i.e the mass of 1 mole of NaOH).

1 mole of NaOH is equivalent to 40g (Molar Mass)

8.72 moles of NaOH would be equivalent to; 40/ 1  x 8.72 = 348.8g

The mass in 5.25 x 10∧24molecules of NaOH is 348.8g
