<u>Answer:</u> The number of formula units in the given amount of NaCl are 1.1\times 10^{18}

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass of NaCl = 0.11 mg = 1.1\times 10^{-4}g      (Conversion factor:  1 g = 1000 mg)

Molar mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of NaCl}=\frac{1.1\times 10^{-4}g}{58.5g/mol}=1.88\times 10^{-6}mol

According to mole concept:

1 mole of a compound contains 6.022\times 10^{23} number of formula units

So, 1.88\times 10^{-6}mol moles of NaCl will contain = (1.88\times 10^{-6}\times 6.022\times 10^{23})=1.1\times 10^{18} number of formula units

Hence, the number of formula units in the given amount of NaCl are 1.1\times 10^{18}

lozanna [386]

Answer:

1.52 L

Explanation:

P1V1T2=V2P2T1

V2=V1T2/T1

Fill in with given values then solve

We can check this by knowing that V and T at constant P have a proportional relationship. Hence, this is correct.

What is the [H+] of a solution with a pH of 3? Use a scientific calculator.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

1 x 10⁻³.

Explanation:

∵ pH = - log[H⁺]

3 = - log[H⁺].

log[H⁺] = -3.

∴ [H⁺] = 1 x 10⁻³.
