The statement that the friend made is not true. most of the mass of the plant is from carbon. the carbon comes from carbon dioxide which is used during photosynthesis. the left over carbon from photosynthesis is used to to help the plant gain mass. there is a process for this which is called cellular respiration

Determine the number of milliliters of 0.00300 M phosphoric acid required to neutralize 40.00 mL of 0.00150 M calcium hydroxide.
a_sh-v [17]

The volume of H₃PO₄ : 13.33 ml

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

0.003 M  Phosphoric acid-H₃PO₄

40 ml of 0.00150 M Calcium hydroxide-Ca(OH)₂

Required

Volume of H₃PO₄

Solution

Acid-base titration formula  

Ma. Va. na = Mb. Vb. nb  

Ma, Mb = acid base concentration  

Va, Vb = acid base volume  

na, nb = acid base valence  (amount of H⁺/OH⁻)

H₃PO₄⇒3H⁺ + PO₄³⁻ ⇒ 3 H⁺ = valence = 3

Ca(OH)₂⇒Ca²⁺ + 2OH⁻⇒ 2 OH⁻ = valence = 2

Input the value :

a = H₃PO₄, b = Ca(OH)₂

0.003 x Va x 3 = 0.0015 x 40 x 2

Va = 13.33 ml

How many moles of water are in 1.23x10^18 water molecules
Harlamova29_29 [7]

By 1.23 x 1024 you mean 10 to the power of 24 molecules? If so all you need to do is divide the number of molecules you have by Avagadros number, 6.022 x 10^23. This will give you the mols of water, or the mols of anything, since there is always 6.022 x 10^23 molecules in 1 mol of substance.


1.23x10^24 atoms/6.022x10^23 atom/mol = 2.04 mol H20

Calculate the volume of 1M NaOH required to neutralize 200 cc of 2M HCI. What mass of sodium
Nezavi [6.7K]

NaOH+HCl-> NaCl+H2O

1 mole of NaOH

1 mole of HCl.

To calculate volume of NaOH

CaVa/CbVb= Na/Nb

Where Ca=2M

Cb=1M

Va=200cm³

Vb=xcm³

Substitute into the equation.

2×200/1×Vb=1/1

400/Vb=1/1

Cross multiply

Vb×1=400×1

Vb=400cm³

To calculate the mass of sodium chloride, NaCl from the neutralization rxn.

Mole of NaCl=1

Molar mass of NaCl= 23+35.5=58.5

Mass=xgrammes.

Mass of NaCl=Number of moles × Molar mass.

Substitute

Mass of NaCl= 1×58.5

=58.5g

This is what I could come up with.
