Calculate the concentration of the following solution in mol/dm3 0.1 moles of NaCl in 200 cm3
taurus [48]
1 cm ^{3} = 0.001 dm ^{3}. Therefore 200 cm ^{3} = 0.2 dm ^{3}. Molarity = \frac{number of moles of NaCl}{volume of the solution} =  \frac{0.1}{0.2} = 0.5 mol/dm^{3}. Hope this helps.

Will bromine react with sodium and why?
Archy [21]

<span><span>When you write down the electronic configuration of bromine and sodium, you get this

Na:
Br: </span></span>

<span><span />So here we the know the valence electrons for each;</span>

<span><span>Na:  (2e)
Br:  (7e, you don't count for the d orbitals)

Then, once you know this, you can deduce how many bonds each can do and you discover that bromine can do one bond since he has one electron missing in his p orbital, but that weirdly, since the s orbital of sodium is full and thus, should not make any bond.

However, it is possible for sodium to come in an excited state in wich he will have sent one of its electrons on an higher shell to have this valence configuration:</span></span>

<span><span /></span><span><span>

</span>where here now it has two lonely valence electrons, one on the s and the other on the p, so that it can do a total of two bonds.</span><span>That's why bromine and sodium can form </span>

What volume of oxygen (in L) is produced
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

12.36 L.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 147.1 g of lead(II) nitrate, Pb(NO₃)₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 207.2 + 2[14.01 + (16×3)]

= 207.2 + 2[14.01 + 48]

= 207.2 + 2[62.01]

= 207.2 + 124.02

= 331.22 g/mol

Mass of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 147.1 g

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ =?

Mole = mass / Molar mass

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 147.1 / 331.22

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 1.104 moles.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of oxygen gas, O₂, produce from the reaction. This can be obtained as follow:

2Pb(NO₃)₂ —> 2PbO + 4NO₂ + O₂

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ decomposed to produce 1 mole of O₂.

Therefore, 1.104 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ will decompose to produce = (1.104 × 1)/2 = 0.552 mole of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the volume occupied by 0.552 mole of oxygen gas, O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of O₂ occupied 22.4 L at STP.

Therefore, 0.552 mole of O₂ will occupy = 0.552 × 22.4 = 12.36 L at STP.

Thus, the volume of oxygen gas, O₂ produced is 12.36 L.
