A geochemist in the field takes a 46.0 mL sample of water from a rock pool lined with crystals of a certain mineral compound X.

He notes the temperature of the pool, 21·C, and caps the sample carefully. Back in the lab, the geochemist filters the sample and then evaporates all the water under vacuum. Crystals of X are left behind. The researcher washes, dries and weighs the crystals. They weigh 0.87 g. yes x10 1 Using only the information above, can you calculate the solubility of X in water at 21.° C?

Answer:

The solubility of the mineral compound X in the water sample is 0.0189 g/mL.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

The volume of water sample = 46.0 mL.

The weight of the mineral compound X after evaporation, drying, and washing = 0.87 g.

Step 2: Calculate the solubility of X in water

46.00 mL of water sample contains 0.87 g of the mineral compound X.

To calulate how many grams of the mineral compound  1.0 mL  of water sample contains:

0.87 g/46.0 mL = 0.0189 g.

This means the solubility of the mineral compound X in the water sample is 0.0189 g/mL.

Chose the element pairings that are likely to react with each other<br> Na and K or Na and Br
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Na k

Explanation:

because na is a metal and potassium is also a metal and both are active metal so is less likely to react as no bond is formed between them

Which option states the principle behind the law of conservation of mass and the law of conservation of energy?
jeka94

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that matter can never be created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.

The law of conservation of energy posits that energy cannot be created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.

These laws are the basic laws of existence. Although the laws have been adjusted, they still form the basic principle behind several scientific laws and are responsible for a whole lot of scientific advancements.

While the first law focuses on matter and the content of matter in a body, the second law basically focuses on energy. The second law serves to support the inter convertibility behind the several forms or types of energy.

For example, to do many useful work at home, it is found that energy is converted from its electric form to say heat in an electric iron to press our clothes.

Also, the first law is a fundamental principle useful in the balancing of our chemical equations.

Potassium has three naturally occurring isotopes. According to one source of data, Potassium-39 (mass 38.9637 amu) makes up 93.2
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Average atomic mass of potassium based on these relative abundances

= 39.0944

Explanation:

The atomic mass of this element will be equal to the sum of product of its three isotopic masses and its fractional abundance

For isotope I -

Mass of Potassium-39 =  38.9637 amu

Fractional abundance of Potassium-39 = 93.26 %

Mass of Potassium-40 = 39.9640 amu

Fractional abundance of Potassium-40 = 0.01 %

Mass of Potassium-41 = 40.9618 amu

Fractional abundance of Potassium-41 =  6.73%

Average atomic mass of potassium based on these relative abundances

= (38.9636 * 0.9326)+ (39.9640*0.0001) + (40.9618 * 0.0673)\\= 36.3374 + 0.0003 + 2.7567\\= 39.0944
