Answer:

0.6257 M is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid.

Explanation:

Mass percentage of oxalic acid = 5.50%

This means that in 100 grams of solution there are 5.50 grams of oxalic acid.

Mass of solution , m = 100

Volume of the solution = V

Density of the solution = d = 1.024 g/mL

$V=\frac{m}{d}=\frac{100 g}{1.024 g/mL}=97.66mL$

V = 97.66 mL = 0.09766 L

(1 mL = 0.001 L)

Moles of oxalic acid = $\frac{5.50 g}{90 g/mol}=0.06111 mol$

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in L}}$

The molarity of the solution :

$=\frac{0.06111 mol}{0.09766 L}=0.6257M$

0.6257 M is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid.

We want to calculate the concentrations of all species in a 0.58 M Na 2 SO 3 (sodium sulfite) solution. The ionization constants

NeX [460]

Explanation:

Reaction equation is as follows.

$Na_{2}SO_{3}(s) \rightarrow 2Na^{+}(aq) + SO^{2-}_{3}(aq)$

Here, 1 mole of $Na_{2}SO_{3}$ produces 2 moles of cations.

$[Na^{+}] = 2[Na_{2}SO_{3}] = 2 \times 0.58$

= 1.16 M

$[SO^{2-}_{3}] = [Na_{2}SO_{3}]$ = 0.58 M

The sulphite anion will act as a base and react with $H_{2}O$ to form $HSO^{-}_{3}$ and $OH^{-}$ .

As, $K_{b} = \frac{K_{w}}{K_{a_{2}}}$

= $\frac{10^{-14}}{6.3 \times 10^{-8}}$

= $1.59 \times 10^{-7}$

According to the ICE table for the given reaction,

$SO^{2-}_{3} + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons HSO^{-}_{3} + OH^{-}$

Initial: 0.58 0 0

Change: -x +x +x

Equilibrium: 0.58 - x x x

So,

$K_{b} = \frac{[HSO^{-}_{3}][OH^{-}]}{[SO^{2-}_{3}]}$

$1.59 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.58 - x}$

$x^{2} = 1.59 \times 10^{-7} \times (0.58 - x)$

x = 0.0003 M

So, x = $[HSO^{-}_{3}] = [OH^{-}]$ = 0.0003 M

$[SO^{2-}_{3}]$ = 0.58 - 0.0003

= 0.579 M

Now, we will use $[HSO^{-}_{3}]$ = 0.0003 M

The reaction will be as follows.

$HSO^{2-}_{3} + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H_{2}SO_{3} + OH^{-}$

Initial: 0.0003

Equilibrium: 0.0003 - x x x

$K_{b} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.0003 - x}$

$K_{b} = \frac{K_{w}}{K_{a_{1}}}$

= $\frac{10^{-14}}{1.4 \times 10^{-2}}$

= $7.14 \times 10^{-13}$

Therefore, $7.14 \times 10^{-13} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.0003 - x}$

As, x <<<< 0.0003. So, we can neglect x.

Therefore, $x^{2} = 7.14 \times 10^{-13} \times 0.0003$

= $0.00214 \times 10^{-13}$

x = $0.0146 \times 10^{-6}$

x = $[OH^{-}] = [H_{2}SO_{3}]$ = $1.46 \times 10^{-8}$

$[H^{+}] = \frac{10^{-14}}{[OH^{-}]}$

= $\frac{10^{-14}}{0.0003}$

= $3.33 \times 10^{-11}$ M

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of spectator ion is $3.33 \times 10^{-11}$ M.

The molar mass of vitamin A (C20H30O).

vivado [14]

Molar mass of C: 12.011 g/mol
The equation says C20, which means there are 20 carbon atoms in each molecule of Vitamin A. So, we multiply 12.011 by 20 to get 240.22 g/mol carbon.

Molar mass of H: 1.0079 g/mol
The equation says C30, which means there are 30 hydrogen atoms in each molecule of Vitamin A. So, we multiply 1.0079 by 30 to get 30.237 g/mol hydrogen.

Molar mass of O: 15.999 g/mol
The equation says O without a number, which means there is only one oxygen atom in each molecule of Vitamin A. So, we leave O at 15.999 g/mol.

Then, just add it up:
240.22 g/mol C + 30.237 g/mol H + 15.999 g/mol O = 286.456 g/mol C20H30O

So, the molar mass of Vitamin A, C20H30O, is approximately 286.5 g/mol.
