The metric system is based on what number?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dmitriy789 [7]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

10

Explanation:

The prefixes attached to metric units carry the same meaning for all base units. The metric system is based upon powers of ten, which is convenient because: A measurement in the metric system that is represented by a rational number remains a rational number after metric unit conversion.

If 200. mL of water is added to 300. mL of an aqueous solution that is 0.725 M in potassium sulfate, what is the concentration o
madreJ [45]

Answer:

0.435 M

Explanation:

In case of dilution , the following formula can be used -

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

where ,

M₁ = initial concentration ,

V₁ = initial volume ,

M₂ = final concentration , i.e. , concentration after dilution ,

V₂ = final volume .

from , the question ,

M₁ =  0.725 M

V₁ = 300 mL

M₂ = ?

V₂ = 300 mL + 200 mL = 500 mL

Since, the final volume of solution would be the summation of the initial and final volume.

Using the above formula , the molarity of the final solution after dilution , can be calculated as ,

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

0.725 M *  300 mL = M₂ * 500mL

M₂ = 0.435 M

Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is prepared commercially from elemental sulfur using the contact process. In a typical sequence of reactio
Elan Coil [88]
I believe the end result is still 83 moles since there is never an amount of sulfur atoms added to the initial amount, but rather oxygen and water is repeatedly added to it. To find it's weight, first find the molar mass of H2SO4:

H2 + S + O4 = 2.00 + 32.1 + 64.0 = 98.1 g/mol

and mass = (98.1 g/mol)(83 mol) = 8142.3 g

rounded to 8.1 x 10^3 g assuming 100% yield?

4. Write the chemical formula for each of the following:
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Calcium oxide: CaO

Copper (II) nitrate: Cu(NO₃)₂

Ammonium chloride: NH₄Cl

Magnesium sulfate: MgSO₄

Copper (I) oxide: Cu₂O

Calcium chloride: CaCl₂

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according the IUPAC rules for naming this inorganic salts, whereas calcium, copper (II), ammonium, magnesium and copper (I) are the cations and oxide, nitrate, chloride and sulfate are the anions, we proceed as follows:

Calcium oxide: CaO

Copper (II) nitrate: Cu(NO₃)₂

Ammonium chloride: NH₄Cl

Magnesium sulfate: MgSO₄

Copper (I) oxide: Cu₂O

Calcium chloride: CaCl₂

Best regards!
