As part of your job you are asked to make 1 liter of a 0.5 molar sucrose solution. how much sucrose (c12h22o11) do you need? use

kakasveta [241]

Answer:- 171 g

Solution:- It asks to calculate the grams of sucrose required to make 1 L of 0.5 Molar solution of it.

We know that molarity is moles of solute per liter of solution.

If molarity and volume is given then, moles of solute is molarity times volume in liters.

moles of solute = molarity* liters of solution

moles of solute = 0.5*1 = 0.5 moles

To convert the moles to grams we multiply the moles by molar mass.

Molar mass of sucrose = 12(12) + 22(1) + 11(16)

= 144 + 22 + 176

= 342 grams per mol

grams of sucrose required = moles * molar mass

grams of sucrose required = 0.5*342 = 171 g

So, 171 g of sucrose are required to make 1 L of 0.5 molar solution.

What name should be used for the ionic compound Ga(SO)? Gallium(III) sulfide gallium(III) sulfate gallium(III) trisulfide galliu

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: The name given to $Ga(SO_4)_3$ is Gallium (III) sulfate.

Explanation: This is an ionic compound because in aqueous solution it dissociates into its respective ions.

Naming of Ionic compounds.

Name the cation first and then write its oxidation number in roman numerical.
Then name the anion or polyatomic ions without writing any prefix of the number of atoms present in it.
The name of the anion should have a suffix '-ide' like for chlorine, the name will be chloride etc..
For polyatomic ions, the suffix used will be '-ate' like for $SO_4^{2-}$ the name will be sulfate etc..

Name of the given ionic compound is Gallium (III) Sulfate.

A brown dye has a percent composition of 62.41% C, 5.24% H, and 32.36% N by mass with a molar mass of 346.40 g/mol. Determine th

Fiesta28 [93]

The molecular formula : C₁₈H₁₈N₈

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

62.41% C, 5.24% H, and 32.36% N

Required

The molecular formula

Solution

mol ratio

C : 62.41/12.0096 = 5.1967

H : 5.24/1.00784 = 5.1992

N : 32.36/14.0067 = 2.310

Divide by 2.310(smallest)

C : 5.1967/2.31=2.25

H : 5.1992/2.31 = 2.25

N : 2.31/2.31 = 1

Multiplied by 4

C : H : N = 9 : 9 : 4

The empirical formula : C₉H₉N₄

(C₉H₉N₄)n=346.40 g/mol

(12.0096 x 9 + 1.00784 x 9 + 14.0067 x 4)n=346.4

(108.0864+9.07056+56.0268)n=346.4

(173.184)n=346.4

n=2

Consider the reaction 5Br−(aq)+BrO−3(aq)+6H+(aq)→3Br2(aq)+3H2O(l) The average rate of consumption of Br− is 1.20×10−4 M/s over t

dexar [7]

Answer:

0.720 M/s

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

5Br⁻(aq) + BrO⁻₃(aq) + 6H⁺(aq) → 3 Br₂(aq) + 3H₂O(l)

The molar ratio of Br⁻ to Br₂ is 5:3, that is, when 5 moles of Br⁻ are consumed, 3 moles of Br₂ are produced. If the average rate of consumption of Br⁻ is 1.20 × 10⁻⁴ M/s, the average rate of formation of Br₂ is:

$\frac{1.20molBr^{-}}{L.s} .\frac{3molBr_{2}}{5molBr^{-}} =\frac{0.720molBr_{2}}{L.s}$
