Unfortunately the data provided doesn't include the DENSITY of the ammonium chloride solution and molarity is defined as moles per volume. So without the density, the calculation of the molarity is impossible. But fortunately, there are tables available that do provide the required density and for a 20% solution by weight, the density of the solution is 1.057 g/ml.  
So 1 liter of solution will mass 1057 grams and the mass of ammonium chloride will be 0.2 * 1057 g = 211.4 g. The number of moles will then be 211.4 g / 53.5 g/mol = 3.951401869 mol. Rounding to 3 significant digits gives a molarity of 3.95.  
Now assuming that your teacher wants you to assume that the solution masses 1.00 g/ml, then the mass of ammonium chloride will only be 200g, and that is only (200/53.5) = 3.74 moles.   
So in conclusion, the expected answer is 3.74 M, although the correct answer using missing information is 3.95 M.

Answer:

4.67~m

Explanation:

If we have a 20% by <u>weight solution</u> indicates that in <u>100 g of solution we have 20 g</u> of NH_4Cl. So, in the 100 g of solution we will have 80 g of H_2O (100-20= 80). If we remember the <u>molality equation</u>:

m=\frac{mol~of~solute}{Kg~of~solvent}

On this case the <u>solute</u> is NH_4Cl, so we have to convert from g to mol using the <u>molar mass</u>:

20g~NH_4Cl\frac{1~mol~NH_4Cl}{53.5g~NH_4Cl}

0.373mol~NH_4Cl

Then we have to calculate the <u>Kg of solvent</u> (H_2O), so:

80~g~H_2O\frac{1~Kg~H_2O}{1000~g~H_2O}

0.08~Kg~H_2O

Finally, we have to <u>divide</u> these two values:

m=\frac{0.373mol~NH_4C}{0.08~Kg~H_2O}

4.67~m

1) A toy car with a mass of 2.35 kg is pushed with a force of 21.6 N. What is the acceleration of the car?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The acceleration of the car is 9,19 m/s2

Explanation:

We use the formula: F=m x a---> a=F/m

a=21,6N/ 2,35kg       1N is 1kgxm/s2

a=21,6 kg x m/s2 x 2,35 kg

a=9,191489362  m/s2

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Mark has a speed of 6 MPS (Miles Per Hour)

Explanation:

It took mark 2 hours to ride his bike to his grandma's house, which was 12 miles away. I divided 2 by 12 and got 6. Remember this: mph = miles away ÷ time.

g A gas is compressed in a cylinder from a volume of 20.0 L to 2.0 L by a constant pressure of 10.0 atm. Calculate the amount of
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The amount of work done on the system is 18234 J and the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.

Explanation:

Thermodynamic work is called the transfer of energy between the system and the environment by methods that do not depend on the difference in temperatures between the two. When a system is compressed or expanded, a thermodynamic work is produced which is called pressure-volume work (p - v).

The pressure-volume work done by a system that compresses or expands at constant pressure is given by the expression:

W system= -p*∆V

Where:

  • W system: Work exchanged by the system with the environment. Its unit of measure in the International System is the joule (J)
  • p: Pressure. Its unit of measurement in the International System is the pascal (Pa)
  • ∆V: Volume variation (∆V = Vf - Vi). Its unit of measurement in the International System is cubic meter (m³)

In this case:

  • p= 10 atm= 1.013*10⁶ Pa (being 1 atm= 101325 Pa)
  • ΔV= 2 L- 20 L= -18 L= -0.018 m³ (being 1 L=0.001 m³)

Replacing:

W system= -1.013*10⁶ Pa* (-0.018 m³)

Solving:

W system= 18234 J

<u><em>The amount of work done on the system is 18234 J and the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.</em></u>
