A student wants to make a 0.150 M aqueous solution of silver (I) nitrate but only has 11.27 g of AgNO3. What volume of the 0.150

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

442.3 mL

Explanation:

Remember that Molarity is a measure of concentration in Chemistry and it's defined as the number of moles of the substance divided by liters of the solution:

$M=\frac{Moles of substance X}{Volume of the solution}$

Then, you can express 11.27 g of AgNO3 as moles of AgNO3 using the molar mass of the compound:

$11.27 g AgNO_{3} *\frac{1 mole AgNO_{3}}{169.87 g AgNO_{3}} = 0.06634 moles AgNO_{3}$

Then you can solve for the volume of the solution:

$Volume of the solution=\frac{Moles of AgNO_{3}}{M} =\frac{0.06634 mol AgNO_{3}}{0.150 M} =0.4423 L = 442.3 mL$

Hope it helps!

The painkiller, Advil® contains the active ingredient ibuprofen (IB), which has a pKb of

denis23 [38]

This problem is providing the basic dissociation constant of ibuprofen (IB) as 5.20, its pH as 8.20 and is requiring the equilibrium concentration of the aforementioned drug by giving the chemical equation at equilibrium it takes place. The obtained result turned out to be D) 4.0 × 10−7 M, according to the following work:

First of all, we set up an equilibrium expression for the given chemical equation at equilibrium, in which water is omitted for it is liquid and just aqueous species are allowed to be included:

$Kb=\frac{[IBH^+][OH^-]}{[IB]}$

Next, we calculate the concentration of hydroxide ions and the Kb due to the fact that both the pH and pKb were given:

$pOH=14-8.20=5.80$

$[OH^-]=10^{-5.8}=1.585x10^{-6}M$

$Kb=10^{-5.20}=6.31x10^{-6}$

Then, since the concentration of these ions equal that of the conjugated acid of the ibuprofen (IBH⁺), we can plug in these and the Kb to obtain:

$6.31x10^{-6}=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{[IB]}$
