Answer:

5.3%

Explanation:

Let the volume be 1 L

volume , V = 1 L

use:

number of mol,

n = Molarity * Volume

= 0.8846*1

= 0.8846 mol

Molar mass of CH3COOH,

MM = 2*MM(C) + 4*MM(H) + 2*MM(O)

= 2*12.01 + 4*1.008 + 2*16.0

= 60.052 g/mol

use:

mass of CH3COOH,

m = number of mol * molar mass

= 0.8846 mol * 60.05 g/mol

= 53.12 g

volume of solution = 1 L = 1000 mL

density of solution = 1.00 g/mL

Use:

mass of solution = density * volume

= 1.00 g/mL * 1000 mL

= 1000 g

Now use:

mass % of acetic acid = mass of acetic acid * 100 / mass of solution

= 53.12 * 100 / 1000

= 5.312 %

≅ 5.3%

How many moles of aluminum oxide will be formed from 17 moles of aluminum reaction?
Ainat [17]

Answer:

8.5 moles of Al₂O₃ will formed

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Al = 17 mol

Number of moles of Al₂O₃ formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

4Al  +  3O₂     →     2Al₂O₃

Now we will compare the moles of Al₂O₃  with Al.

                  Al            :            Al₂O₃      

                   4            :              2

                   17           :            2/4×17 = 8.5 mol

8.5 moles of Al₂O₃ will formed.

1. john needs to create a buffered solution at a ph of 3.5 for his biomedical laboratory
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Use a ratio of 0.44 mol lactate to 1 mol of lactic acid  

Explanation:

John could prepare a lactate buffer.

He can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to find the acid/base ratio for the buffer.

\text{pH} = \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log\dfrac{\text{[A$^{-}$]}}{\text{[HA]}}\\\\3.5 = 3.86 + \log\dfrac{\text{[A$^{-}$]}}{\text{[HA]}}\\\\\log\dfrac{\text{[A$^{-}$]}}{\text{[HA]}} = 3.5 - 3.86 = -0.36\\\\\dfrac{\text{[A$^{-}$]}}{\text{[HA]}} = 10^{-0.36} = \mathbf{0.44}

He should use a ratio of 0.44 mol lactate to 1 mol of lactic acid.

For example, he could mix equal volumes of 0.044 mol·L⁻¹ lactate and 0.1 mol·L⁻¹ lactic acid.
