Three solutions contain a certain acid. The first contains 10% acid, the second 30%, and the third 50%. A chemist wishes to use

all three solutions to obtain a 50-liter mixture containing 32% acid. If the chemist wants to use twice as much of the 50% solution as of the 30% solution, how many liters of each solution should be used?

Answer:

To prepare 50L of 32% solution you need: 11L of 30% solution, 22L of 50% solution and 17L of 10% solution.

Explanation:

A 32% solution of acid means 32L of acid per 100L of solution. As the chemist wants to make a solution using twice as much of the 50% solution as of the 30% solution it is possible to write:

2x*50% + x*30% + y*10% = 50L*32%

<em>130x + 10y = 1600 </em><em>(1)</em>

<em>-Where x are volume of 30% solution, 2x volume of 50% solution and y volume of 10% solution-</em>

Also, it is possible to write a formula using the total volume (50L), thus:

<em>2x + x +y = 50L</em>

<em>3x + y = 50L </em><em>(2)</em>

If you replace (2) in (1):

130x + 10(50-3x) = 1600

100x + 500 = 1600

100x = 1100

<em>x = 11L -Volume of 30% solution-</em>

2x = 22L -Volume of 50% solution-

50L - 22L - 11L = 17 L -Volume of 10% solution-

I hope it helps!

Mars2501 [29]

The fact that CO2 is released from oceans due to further rise in temperature is an example of a negative feedback.

A negative feedback is one in which the process that produces the feedback is interrupted. That is, the process is stopped as a result of the feedback received.

In this case, CO2  which leads to global warming dissolves in the ocean which serves a large sink for the gas. However, as the increase in ocean temperatures causes decrease in solubility of CO2, more CO2 is released leading to further temperature rise. This is an example of a negative feedback loop.

what mass of carbon dioxide gas would be produced if 10g of calcium carbonate reacted with an excess of hydrochloric acid?
LuckyWell [14K]
Answer is: 4,4 grams <span>of carbon dioxide gas would be produced.
</span>Chemical reaction: CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + CO₂ + H₂O.
m(CaCO₃) = 10 g.
n(CaCO₃) = 10 g ÷ 100 g/mol.
n(CaCO₃) = 0,1 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(CaCO₃) : n(CO₂) = 1 : 1.
n(CO₂) = 0,1 mol.
m(CO₂) = n(CO₂) · M(CO₂).
m(CO₂) = 0,1 mol· 44 g/mol.
m(CO₂) = 4,4 g.

How many molecules are in 4.50 moles of H2O?
alisha [4.7K]
C can be the only correct answer - 6.023 x 10^23 is the amount of molecules in a mol of an element. 4.5 x 6.023 x 10^23 can not equal anything but C.

4.5 x 6.023 x 10^23 = 2.71035 x 10^24
