Answer:

Concentration of KOH = 1.154 M

Explanation:

H_2C_2O_4(aq) + 2KOH(aq) \rightarrow K_2C_2O_4(aq) + 2H_2O(l)

In the above reaction, 1 mole of oxalic acid reacts with 2 moles of KOH.

Mass of oxalic acid = 0.604 g

Mole = \frac{Mass\; in\;g}{Molecular\;mass}

Molecular mass of oxalic acid = 90.03 g/mol

Mole = \frac{0.604}{90.03}=0.0067\;mol

1 mol of oxalic acid reacts with 2 moles of KOH

0.0067 mol of oxalic acid reacts with 0.0067\times 2 = 0.0134 mol\; of\;KOH

Volume of the solution = 27.02 mL = 0.0272 L

Molarity=\frac{Mole}{Volume\;in\;L}

No. of mole of KOH = 0.0134 mol

Molarity=\frac{0.0134}{0.0272}=1.154\;M

Concentration of KOH = 1.154 M

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

0.35 atm

Explanation:

It seems the question is incomplete. But an internet search shows me these values for the question:

" At a certain temperature the vapor pressure of pure thiophene (C₄H₄S) is measured to be 0.60 atm. Suppose a solution is prepared by mixing 137. g of thiophene and 111. g of heptane (C₇H₁₆). Calculate the partial pressure of thiophene vapor above this solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. Note for advanced students: you may assume the solution is ideal."

Keep in mind that if the values in your question are different, your answer will be different too. <em>However the methodology will remain the same.</em>

First we <u>calculate the moles of thiophene and heptane</u>, using their molar mass:

  • 137 g thiophene ÷ 84.14 g/mol = 1.63 moles thiophene
  • 111 g heptane ÷ 100 g/mol = 1.11 moles heptane

Total number of moles = 1.63 + 1.11 = 2.74 moles

The<u> mole fraction of thiophene</u> is:

  • 1.63 / 2.74 = 0.59

Finally, the <u>partial pressure of thiophene vapor is</u>:

Partial pressure = Mole Fraction * Vapor pressure of Pure Thiophene

  • Partial Pressure = 0.59 * 0.60 atm
  • Pp = 0.35 atm

What does a chemist do​
Mama L [17]
A chemist (from Greek chēm (ía) alchemy; replacing chemist from Medieval Latin alchimista[1]) is a scientist trained in the study of chemistry. Chemists study the composition of matter and its properties. Chemists carefully describe the properties they study in terms of quantities, with detail on the level of molecules and their component atoms. Chemists carefully measure substance proportions, reaction rates, and other chemical properties. The word 'chemist' is also used to address Pharmacists in Commonwealth English.

Explain how the Law of Conservation of Mass is demonstrated In photosynthesis and cellular Respiration chemical equations. (Less
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Explanation:

  • According to the law of conservation of mass, In a chemical reaction, mass is neither created nor destroyed. In other words, the total mass for the reactants needs to equal the total mass of the products.
  • <u><em>In photosynthesis the reactants are 6 carbon dioxide, 6 water and sunlight. The mass of these reactants adds to equal the mass of the products, which are 1 glucose and 6 oxygen. </em></u>
  • <u><em>Cellular respiration on the other hand uses glucose and oxygen gas to produce water, carbon dioxide, and a usable form of energy known as ATP.</em></u>
  • Cellular respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis, such that the products of photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration also obeys the law of conservation of mass.
