This graduated cylinder has numbers representing milliliters. A student says that the volume of the liquid inside is 21.8 millil

iters. What best explains why the student is wrong? 21.8 is at the top of the meniscus, but volume should be measured in the middle of the meniscus. 21.8 is at the top of the meniscus, but volume should be measured at the bottom of the meniscus. Since the lines are only marked with whole numbers, the student must round to a whole number. Since the whole numbers represent milliliters, the student must use a unit smaller than milliliters.

Explanation:

The answer for this question depends on the type of meniscus in the cylinder. If it is an upright meniscus like in water, the reading should be taken at the bottom of the meniscus. However if it is an inverted meniscus like in mercury, the reading should be taken at the top of the meniscus.

(Can you check and see if there's any pictures or information that is missing?)

Can Magnesium hydroxide be used as the base for this titration? Why or why not? 5. Describe the procedure that you will follow t
kvasek [131]

Explanation:

A.

Yes

B.

2KHP + Mg(OH)2 = 2KOH + Mg(HP)2

KHP is an acidic salt which reacts with Mg(OH)2 which is a base via double displacement/decomposition reaction.

C.

• One approach is to prepare the solution volumetrically using KHP crystals.

• Preparing 1 liter of 0.1 M KHP you would add 0.1 moles of KHP

Molar mass of KHP(C8H5KO4)

= (12*8) + (5*1) + 39 + (16*4)

= 204 g/mol

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 20.4/204

= 0.1 mol.

• This is added to a 1 liter volumetric flask, add deionized water until near the fill line, stopper and mix

D.

Number of moles = molar concentration * volume

= 0.025 * 0.100

= 0.0025 mol

Equation for the reaction:

Ba(OH)2 + 2KHP --> Ba(KP)2 + 2H2O

1 mole of Ba(OH)2 reacted with 2 moles of KHP. By stoichiometry,

Number of moles of Ba(OH)2 = 0.0025/2

= 0.00125 mol.

Molarity = number of moles/volume

= 0.00125/0.01

= 0.125 M of Ba(OH)2.

How many ug of nickel (Ni) are required to make 25.00 nanoliters of a 1.25 mol/L solution? Be sure to report your answer to the
devlian [24]

volume of Ni = 25 nL = 25 x 10⁻⁹ L

mol Ni = 25 x 10⁻⁹ L x 1.25 mol/L = 3.125 x 10⁻⁸

mass = mol x Ar Ni

mass = 3.125 x 10⁻⁸ x 59 g/mol

mass = 1.84 x 10⁻⁶ g = 1.84 μg

Why are ionic compounds solids
enot [183]

Answer: The crystal structure of ionic compounds is strong and rigid. It takes a lot of energy to break all those ionic bonds. As a result, ionic compounds are solids with high melting and boiling points.
