what is the percent by mass of a solution that contains 30 grams of potassium nitrite in 0.5 kilograms of water?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Makovka662 [10]3 years ago
5 0

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>

Caleb has a 860-kilogram car sitting in his back yard, gathering rust.
emmasim [6.3K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

A. 860 kg

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To answer the question we need to understand that;

  • Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object.
  • Weight, on the other hand, refers to the gravitational pull of an object to a given surface.
  • Mass is measured using a spring balance.

We also need to know that;

  • The mass of an object remains constant every where irrespective of the gravitational acceleration.
  • Therefore, an object on the surface of the earth would have the same mass as on the surface of the moon.
  • In this case; the mass of the car remains the same on the outer space as on the back yard.
