In class, students were given the following problem: "Aluminum satellite dishes resist corrosion because aluminum reacts with ox

ygen gas to form a coating of aluminum oxide (Al2O3). What is the mass of Al2O3?"
a) Sally solved the problem by first finding the molar mass of aluminum oxide. She calculated the molar mass of Al2O3 as 43.0 g/mol. This is not the correct molar mass however. What did sally do wrong?

b) After finding the molar mass of Al2O3, Jacob set up the following conversion. (I'll add a pic)

Is this the correct set up for the problem?

Hello! 

the correct setup is shown at bottom of your question

we get

total moles*(1/102.0 g/mol)= total grams Al2O3

hope this helps. any questions please ask. thank you kindly

Does adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent, a lesser extent, or a greater e
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water <em><u>to the same extent</u></em>  by adding 1 mol of C_06H_{12}O_6 to 1 kg of water.

Explanation:

1) Moles of NaCl ,n_1=1 mol

Mass of water = m= 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol

Vapor pressure of the solution = p

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = p_o=17.5 Torr

Mole fraction of solute(NaCl)= \chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}

p=17.19 Torr

The vapor pressure for the NaCl solution at 17.19 Torr.

2) Moles of sucrose ,n_1=1mol

Mass of water = m  = 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol

Vapor pressure of the solution = p'

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = p_o=17.5 Torr

Mole fraction of solute ( glucose)= \chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}

p'=17.19 Torr

The vapor pressure for the glucose solution at 17.19 Torr.

p = p' = 17.19 Torr

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent  by adding 1 mol of C_06H_{12}O_6 to 1 kg of water.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Part A: 36 MBq; Part B: 18 MBq

Explanation:

The half-life is the time it takes for half the substance to disappear.

The activity decreases by half every half-life

A =Ao(½)^n, where n is the number of half-lives.

Part A

3.0 da = 1 half-life

A =  Ao(½) = ½ × 72 MBq = 36 MBq

Part B

6.0 da = 2 half-lives

A = Ao(½)^2 = ¼ × 72 MBq = 18 MBq

Meteorologists use weather balloons to carry weather instruments high into the atmosphere. When it is first released at Earth’s
ahrayia [7]

<span>The balloons volume as it rises increases because at higher altitude external pressure is lower, so the air molecules inside the balloons tends to expand more to attain mechanical equilibrium, where the external pressure and internal pressure are equal. Unlike when the balloon is on the ground, external pressure is great so the gas molecule cannot push the walls of the balloon so it is like underinflated.</span>

what does a large positive standard cell potential imply about the spontenty of the redox reaction occuring in teh cell
marta [7]

Answer : E cell standard is the potential difference between the two electrodes under standard conditions. Overall tendency for the redox reaction to occur spontaneously. A large positive E cell means the reaction is more spontaneous, and a negative E cell indicates a non spontaneous reaction.
