Answer:

5.66 %.

Explanation:

<em>mass percent is the ratio of the mass of the solute to the mass of the solution multiplied by 100.</em>

<em />

<em>mass % = (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100.</em>

<em></em>

mass of potassium nitrite = 30.0 g,

mass of the solution = mass of water + mass of potassium nitrite = 500.0 g + 30.0 g = 530.0 g.

<em>∴ mass % = (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100</em> = (30.0 g/530.0 g) x 100 = <em>5.66 %.</em>

A certain crunch cereal contains 11.0 grams of sugar(sucrose, C12H22O11) per serving size of 60.0 gram. How many
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

51.859 grams

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of sugar in the crunch cereal per serving= 11.0 grams

Mass of cereal served per serving = 60.0 grams

Molar mass of the sugar (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) = ( 12 × 12 + 22 × 1 + 16 × 11 ) = 342 grams

Number of moles of sugar per serving = Mass / Molar mass

= 11.0 / 342

= 0.03216 moles

Now,

0.03216 moles sugar requires 60 grams cereal

for 0.0278 moles of sugar, cereal required = (60 / 0.03216) × 0.0278

or

for 0.0278 moles of sugar, cereal required = 51.859 grams

An unknown metal is dropped into 127 grams of water. The temperature of the water has been raised from 25OC to 28OC. Using the s
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

he amount of heat gained by the water is 1.59 kJ    

Explanation:

Relation between heat energy, specific heat and temperature change is as follows

Q = mCΔT

where,    Q or q = heat energy

             m = mass

             C = specific heat  =4.186J/g°C

ΔT = (28°C - 25°C) = 3°C

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Q = mCΔT

= 127 × 4.186 × 3

= 1594.86 J or 1.59 kJ    

Therefore, we can conclude that the amount of heat gained by the water is 1.59 kJ

Unsaturated compounds are_<br> very reactive<br> unreactive<br> single bonded<br> alkanes
dsp73

Answer:

very reactive

Explanation:

The alkenes and alkynes are very reactive organic compound at their double and triple bonds participating in an extensive range of reactions which can be nucleophilc, addition , free radical reactions just to mention a few.

The reason for this reactivity is the high density of electrons due to the double and triple bonds responsible for the "unsaturation"

Olin [163]

Answer:A) After the values are added, we determine how many significant figures are involved by looking at the decimal places of the original values. 52.13 had only 2 digits past the decimal point so the answer can only contain 2 significant numbers after the decimal point which would be 53.88 g
