Answer:

The option a termed as precipitation reaction is incorrectly labelled. 

Explanation:

The chemical reactions are classified based on the reactants used and products formed in a reaction. They are decomposition reaction, single displacement reaction, double displacement reaction, acid-base neutralisation reaction, precipitation reaction, combustion reaction, redox reaction and organic reaction.

Among these, the given options are labelled as precipitation and combustion reaction. The one which is labelled as combustion reaction is correct because combustion reactions occur in the presence of oxygen only and the products of combustion reaction should include water, oxygen or carbon and heat.

The other option which is labelled as precipitation reaction is incorrect because precipitation reaction occurs when an ionic substance will come out of a solution due to heating it or stirring it making the solubility of the ionic substance in a solution zero such that it will come out as solid and form a layer at the bottom of the solution.

But in this case all the products are in aqueous state, there is absence of any ionic substance in solid state, so the option which is labelled as precipitation reaction is incorrectly labelled.

An aqueous KNO3 solution is made using 72.5 g of KNO3 diluted to a total solution volume of 2.00 L. Calculate the molarity, mola

Sonja [21]

Answer:

The molarity is 0.359 $\frac{moles}{L}$

The molality is 0.354 $\frac{moles}{kg}$

The mass percent of the solution es 3.45%

Explanation:

Molarity is a unit of concentration that indicates the amount of moles of solute that appear dissolved in each liter of the mixture. It is determined by:

$Molarity (M)=\frac{number of moles of solute}{volume}$

Being:

K: 39 g/mole
N: 14 g/mole
O: 16 g/mole

The molar mass of KNO₃ is:

KNO₃= 39 g/mole + 14 g/mole + 3*16 g/mole= 101 g/mole

You can apply the following rule of three: if 101 grams of KNO₃ are present in 1 mole, 72.5 grams in how many moles are present?

$moles of KNO_{3}=\frac{72.5 grams*1 mole}{101 grams}$

moles of KNO₃= 0.718

So you have:

moles of KNO₃= 0.718
volume= 2 L

Applying this quantity in the definition of molarity:

$molarity=\frac{0.718 moles}{2 L}$

Molarity= 0.359 $\frac{moles}{L}$

The molarity is 0.359 $\frac{moles}{L}$

Molality is a way of measuring the concentration of solute in solvent and indicates the amount of moles of solute in each kilogram of solvent.

Then the molality is calculated by:

$Molality=\frac{moles of solute}{mass of solvent in kilograms}$

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress in a given space. That is, it is the amount of mass per unit volume. So, if the density of 1.05 g / mL for the solution indicates that in 1 mL of solution there are 1.05 grams of solution, in 2000 mL (where 2L = 2000 mL, because 1 L = 1000mL) how much mass is there?

$mass=\frac{2000 mL*1.05 grams}{1 mL}$

mass= 2100 grams

Since mass solution = mass water + mass KNO₃

then mass water = mass solution - mass KNO₃

Being mass solution 2100 grams and mass KNO₃ 72.5 grams, and replacing you get: mass water= 2100 grams - 72.5 grams

mass water= 2,027.5 grams

Then, being:

moles of KNO₃= 0.718
mass of solvent in kilograms= 2.0275 kg (being 2,027.5 grams= 2.0275 kilograms because 1,000 grams= 1 kilogram)

Replacing in the definition of molality:

$molality=\frac{0.718 moles}{2.0275 kg}$

molality= 0.354 $\frac{moles}{kg}$

The molality is 0.354 $\frac{moles}{kg}$

The mass percent of a solution is the number of grams of solute per 100 grams of solution. Then the mass percent is the mass of the element or solute divided by the mass of the compound or solute and the result of which is multiplied by 100 to give a percentage.

$mass percent=\frac{mass of solute}{mass of solution} *100$

So, in this case:

$mass percent=\frac{72.5 grams}{2100 grams} *100$

mass percent= 3.45 % KNO₃ by mass

The mass percent of the solution es 3.45%
