If 25.8 grams of BaO dissolve in enough water to make a 212-gram solution, what is the percent by mass of the solution?

2 answers:

5 0

The answer is A. 12.2% BaO

Below is the solution as to how the answer was generated:

Let:

25.8g = mass of solute

212g = mass solution

Equation:

% = (mass of solute / mass solution) x 100

Substitute the given values to the equation:

% = (25.8 / 212) x 100

% = 0.122 x 100

= 12.2%

Correct Answer: Option A i.e. 12.2 % BaO 
.....................................................................................................................................

Reason: percent by mass is mathematically expressed as:
% by mass = $\frac{\text{Weight of solute (g)}}{\text{Weight of solution (g)}}$ X 100

Given: weight of solute (BaO) = 25.8 g weight of solution = 212 g

∴, % by mass of the solution = $\frac{25.8X100}{212}$ 
= 12.2 %

Thus, percent by mass of BaO in solution is 12.2 %

Select the correct electron configuration for Vanadium. (Atomic Number 23) 1s22s62p33s 23p44s23d5 1s22s22p63s 23p84s23d1 1s22s22

True [87]

The correct electronic configuration of vanadium 23 is

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^3

This electronic configuration is correct because it obeys the Aufbau principle which state that electrons fill the atomic orbital of the lowest energy before occupying the higher level. S orbital can occupy a total of 2 electrons, p orbital can occupy a total of 6 electrons while d orbital can occupy a total of 10 electrons. in the electronic configuration above an s orbital is filled before p orbital while the p orbital is filled before the d orbital .

When 1.104 grams of iron metal are mixed with 26.023 grams of hydrochloric acid in a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature ris

Alika [10]

Answer:

a) An exothermic reaction, will release heat. No heat will be absorbed.

b) 903.71 J of heat released

c) reaction is exothermic and ∆H will be negative.

d) ΔHreaction = 818.6 J/g

e) ΔHreaction = 45.6 kJ/mol

f) ΔHreaction = 91.2 kJ

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of iron = 1.104 grams

Mass of hydrochloric acid = 26.023 grams

Initial temperature = 25.2°C

Final temperature = 33.5 °C

Temperature change = 8.3 °C

Step 2: The balanced equation

2Fe(s)+6HCl(aq) → 2FeCl3 (aq)+3H2 (g)

(A) Determine the amount of heat (in J) absorbed by the reaction mixture.

Since we have a rise of temperature, this means the reaction is exothermic.

An exothermic reaction, will release heat. No heat will be absorbed.

(B) How much heat (in J) was released by the reaction that occurred?

q = mC∆T

with q = heat released (in J)

with m = the mass (in grams)

with c = the specific heat capacity (in J/g°C)

with ∆T = The change in temperature (in °C)

q = (26.023g)*(4.184 J/g°C)*(8.3 °C) = 903.71 J of heat released

(C) Is this reaction exothermic or endothermic? Is ΔHreaction positive or negative?

Since we have a rise of temperature, this means the reaction is exothermic.

There is heat released so ∆H will be negative.

(D) Under constant pressure conditions (as used in this experiment), the heat released by the reaction equals the reaction enthalpy, qreleased = ΔHreaction. Determine ΔHreaction in Joules per gram of metal used (J/g).

ΔHreaction = 903.71 J/1.104 g = 818.6 J/g

(E) Determine ΔHreaction in kilojoules per mole of metal used (kJ/mol)

Number of moles of iron =1.104 grams / 55.845 g/mol = 0.0198 moles

ΔHreaction = 903.71 J / 0.0198 moles = 45641.9 J/mol = 45.6 kJ/mol

(F) Determine ΔHreaction in kilojoules per mole for the balanced reaction equation provided

Since we have 2moles of Fe in the balanced reaction;

ΔHreaction = 45.6 kJ/mol * 2 mol = 91.2 kJ

A geologist finds an area with a lot of slate, a type of metamorphic rock, on the surface of the land. What might this indicate

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Explanation:

Two things that can be deduced by this finding would be that the location was most likely a very muddy area with lots of clay minerals, as well as having lots of crustal movements. This is because slate is created when crustal movement buries clay minerals and other materials in the crust of the Earth. This is later melted and squeezed together from the sheer heat that is applied being so far underground. Therefore, creating what we now know as Slate.
