What is the mole fraction of NaOH in an aqueous solution that contains 15% NaOH by mass?

Chemistry

zhenek [66]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

0.074

Explanation:

15% means that in 100 g of solution 15 g sodium hydroxide is present.

Mass of water = 100 - 15 = 85 g

Number of moles of sodium hydroxide:

Number of moles = 15 g/40 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.375 mol

Number of moles of water:

Number of moles = 85 g/18 g/mol

Number of moles = 4.7 mol

Moles fraction of NaOH:

moles of NaOH/ moles of solvent + moles of solute

0.375 mol/ 0.375 mol+4.7mol

0.375 mol / 5.075 mol

0.074

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

0.23 moles of ammonia

Required

The volume of a sample

Solution

Assumed on STP

Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure). At STP, Vm is 22.4 liters / mol.

So for 0.23 moles :

= 0.23 x 22.4 L

= 5.152 L

What is common to all elements in the same group in the periodic table?
Dmitry [639]
<span>C is the correct answer. Elements in the periodic table are grouped based on having similar properties. For example, the noble gases are all non-reactive and non-metallic. The electronic structure of an atom is the way the electrons are arranged within it, and this affects where they are located in the periodic table. The number of electrons in an element is the same as its group number in the periodic table (with the exception of Group 0).</span>
