The solubility of oxygen gas in water at 40 ∘c is 1.0 mmol/l of solution. What is this concentration in units of mole fraction?

juin [17]

The formula for mole fraction is:

$mole fraction of solute = \frac{number of moles of solute}{total number of moles of solution}$ -(1)

The solubility of oxygen gas = 1.0 mmol/L (given)

1.0 mmol/L means 1.0 mmol are present in 1 L.

Converting mmol to mol:

$1.00 mmol\times \frac{1 mol}{1000 mmol} = 0.001 mol$

So, moles of oxygen = 0.001 mol

For moles of water:

1 L of water = 1000 mL of water

Since, the density of water is 1.0 g/mL.

$Density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

$Mass = 1.0 g/ml\times 1000 mL = 1000 g$

So, the mass of water is 1000 g.

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol.

Number of moles of water = $\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol} = 55.55 mol$

Substituting the values in formula (1):

$mole fraction = \frac{0.001}{55.55+0.001}$

$mole fraction = 1.8\times 10^{-5}$

Hence, the mole fraction is $1.8\times 10^{-5}$ .

A chemical reaction takes place inside a flask submerged in a water bath. The water bath contains 8.10kg of water at 33.9 degree

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The new temperature of the water bath 32.0°C.

Explanation:

Mass of water in water bath ,m= 8.10 kg = 8100 g ( 1kg = 1000g)

Initial temperature of the water = $T_1=33.9^oC=33.9+273K=306.9 K$

Final temperature of the water = $T_2$

Specific heat capacity of water under these conditions = c = 4.18 J/gK

Amount of energy lost by water = -Q = -69.0 kJ = -69.0 × 1000 J

( 1kJ=1000 J)

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)$

$-69.0\times 1000 J=8100 g\times 4.18 J/g K\times (T_2-306.9 K)$

$-69,000.0 J=8100 g\times 4.18 J/g K\times (T_2-306.9 K)$

$T_2=304.86 K=304.86 -273^oC=31.86^oC\approx 32.0^oC$

The new temperature of the water bath 32.0°C.

Given the law of conservation of energy, what happens when a 200°C iron bar is placed in thermal contact with a 30°C block of wo

kozerog [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is A Energy leaves the iron bar and enters the wood until the temperature are equal.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy or the first law thermodynamics energy neither be created nor destroyed, energy is transferred from one form to another form.

Here iron bar is placed in wood block energy is transferred from iron bar to wood until the temperatures are equal.
