Answer:

Explanation:

To start with, the mass of a substance is centered on the amount of particles contained in it.

Mass of a substance measure is the same anywhere it is taken.

In chemistry, the concept of mole is used to find the exact estimate of  the number of entities in a sample.

A mole of substance is quantity that is used to express the number of particles contained in it.

  1 mole of any substance contains the Avogadro's number of particles.

This amount of particles is given as 6.02 x 10²³; the particles can be protons, neutrons, electrons e.t.c.

To find the number of moles;

        Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

       Through this, we clearly ascertain the number of entities in a sample given the mass.

A bottle of wine contains 9.81 grams of C2H5OH, dissolved in 87.5 grams of water. The final volume of the solution is 100.0 mL.
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

[EtOH] = 2.2M and Wt% EtOH = 10.1% (w/w)

Explanation:

1. Molarity = moles solute / Volume solution in Liters

=> moles solute = mass solute / formula weight of solute = 9.8g/46g·mol⁻¹ = 0.213mol EtOH

=> volume of solution (assuming density of final solution is 1.0g/ml) ...

volume solution =  9.81gEtOH + 87.5gH₂O = 97.31g solution x 1g/ml = 97.31ml = 0.09731 Liter solution

Concentration (Molarity) = moles/Liters = 0.213mol/0.09731L = 2.2M in EtOH

2. Weight Percent EtOH in solution (assuming density of final solution is 1.0g/ml)

From part 1 => [EtOH] = 2.2M in EtOH = 2.2moles EtOH/1.0L soln

= {(2.2mol)(46g/mol)]/1000g soln] x 100% = 10.1% (w/w) in EtOH.

Calculate the molar mass of cacl2
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 110.98 \ g/mol}}

Explanation:

The molar mass is the mass of a substance in grams per mole.

To find it, add the mass of each element in the compound. These masses can be found on the Periodic Table.

The compound given is:

CaCl_2

The compound has 1 Ca (calcium) and 2 Cl (chlorine).

 

Mass of Calcium

  • The molar mass of calcium is 40.08 g/mol
  • There is only one atom of Calcium in CaCl₂, so the number above is what we will use.

Mass of Chlorine

  • The molar mass of chlorine is 35.45 g/mol
  • There are two atoms of chlorine in CaCl₂, therefore we need to multiply the molar mass by 2.
  • 35.45 * 2= 70.9 g/mol

Molar Mass of CaCl₂

  • Now, to find the molar mass, add the molar mass of 1 calcium and 2 chlorine.
  • 40.08 g/mol + 70.9 g/mol =110.98 g/mol

The molar mass of CaCl₂ is <u>110.98 grams per mole. </u>
