A 4.00 gram sample of a solution of sodium chloride in water was heated until all the water had evaporated. The sodium chloride

that remained weighed 1.22 grams. Calculate the percentage of water in the original 4.00 grams of solution.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass percent of water in the original sample is 69.5 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of NaCl remained after heating = 1.22 grams

Mass of the sample = 4.00 grams

Mass of water evaporated = Mass of sample - Mass of NaCl remained

Mass of water evaporated = (4.00 - 1.22) g = 2.78 grams

To calculate the mass percentage of water in the sample, we use the equation:

\text{Mass percent of water}=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{\text{Mass of sample}}\times 100

Mass of water = 2.78 g

Mass of sample = 4.00 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass percent of water}=\frac{2.78g}{4.00g}\times 100=69.5\%

Hence, the mass percent of water in the original sample is 69.5 %

Why is the atmospheric pressure lower on a high mountain peak than at sea level
Elenna [48]
The earths gravity attracts the molecules and collects the most near the surface. They all have weight and therefore have more pressure at the surface, as well. As you go higher, the attraction becomes less and these molecules some times fly off into space. This layer of equilibrium has the least of weight or pressure. 

The various pressures are measured by precision instruments called barometers or pressure sensors and expressed in inches of mercury or millibars. <span>Air has a weight too, although not very much, If you "pile" the air mile high, the bottom pressure is heavier because of all the air sitting on top of it, therefore the pressure decreases with altitude, because there is less air "piled up" </span>
<span>An analogy would be the same with water.</span>

Planes have these instruments that tells the crew the altitude above sea level they are at when flying.

Use the drop-down menus to classify each of the following as an addition, substitution, elimination, or
OLga [1]

Answer:

CH3CHO+H2O → CH3OCH3 - addition

CH,CICH CI + Zn → C2H4 + ZnCl2 - elimination

CH3CH3Br + OH – CH3CH3OH + Br - substitution

2CH2COOH >>(CH3CO)20 + H20 - condensation

Explanation:

An addition reaction is a reaction in which a specie is added across the double bond as we can see in CH3CHO+H2O → CH3OCH3.

In an elimination reaction, a small molecule is lost from a saturated compound to form the corresponding unsaturated compound as in CH,CICH CI + Zn → C2H4 + ZnCl2

In a substitution reaction, a chemical moiety replaces another in a molecule as in; CH3CH3Br + OH – CH3CH3OH + Br .

A condensation reaction is in which two molecules are joined together to form a bigger molecule as in; 2CH2COOH >>(CH3CO)20 + H20.

Explain how the following experimental errors affect the final calculation of the kilocalories per gram for a food item. Be spec
Ainat [17]

Answer:

a) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less because the mass was reduced

b)the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less since

c) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less since the reaction will eventually go to completion

d) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be more.

Explanation:

a) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less because the mass was reduced from 110.3 to 101.3g

b)the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less since some marshmallow fell off before the reaction

c) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less since the reaction will eventually go to completion

d) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be more since the thermometer that got stuck will add to the value of final kilocalories per gram

Covalent solutes are considered non-electrolytes. What does this mean for the conductivity of the solution? A) Non-electrolytes
iogann1982 [59]

Electrolytes are those which dissociates in solution and produces ions.

Ions can carry current,so Electrolytes conduct electiricity.

And non electrolytes are those which do not dissociate in solution and doesnt produce ions.

Since non electrolytes do not produce ions they cannot conduct electricity.

<u>Hence the right option is:</u>

B) Non-electrolytes dissolve and do not dissociate in water providing no charged ions to conduct electricity.
