What is the mole fraction of solute and the molal concentration for an aqueous solution that is 20.0% NaOH by mass?

Let's assume we have 100 grams of this solution, and therefore 20.0 grams of NaOH, and 80.0 grams of water.

NaOH has a molar mass of 40.00 grams/mole, so we can convert NaOH to moles: (20.0 grams of NaOH) * (1 mole NaOH/40.00 grams NaOH) = 0.500 moles NaOH.

Next, we have a molar mass of water of 18.02 g/mol, so we can convert water to moles:

80.0 grams H2O * (1 mole H2O/18.02 grams) = 4.44 moles H2O
The mole fraction of NaOH is the moles of NaOH over the total moles of all parts of the solution. Therefore:

(0.500 moles NaOH)/(0.500 moles + 4.44 moles) = 0.101
0.101 = mole fraction of solute

The molal concentration is defined as the number of moles of solute over the number of kilograms of solvent (water).
We have 0.500 moles of NaOH, and 0.0800 kg of water, so it becomes:
(0.500 moles NaOH)/(0.0800 kg H2O solvent) = 6.25 molal solution

Dr. Khan works for the marketing department of a company that manufactures mechanical toy dogs. Dr. Khan has been asked to assess the effectiveness of a new advertising campaign that is designed to be most persuasive to people with a certain personality profile. She brought four groups of participants to the lab to watch the video advertisements and to measure the likelihood that they would purchase the toy, both before and after watching the ad. The results of Dr. Khan’s study are presented below.

Part A

Explain how each of the following concepts applies to Dr. Khan’s research.

Survey

Dependent variable

Big Five theory of personality

Part B

Explain the limitations of Dr. Khan’s study based on the research method used.

Explain what Dr. Khan’s research hypothesis most likely was.

Part C

Use the graph to answer the following questions.

A 5.00-cm cube of magnesium has a mass of 217.501 g. What is the density of magnesiummetal?
Doss [256]

Answer:

d = 43.5 g/cm³

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of magnesium cube = 217.501 g

Volume of magnesium cube = 5.00 cm³

Density of magnesium cube = ?

Solution:

Formula:

d = m/v

d = density

m = mass

v = volume

by putting values,

d = 217.501 g/ 5.00 cm³

d = 43.5 g/cm³

The density of solid Cr is 7.15 g/cm3. How many atoms are present per cubic centimeter of Cr?
Masja [62]
To calculate the number of atoms of Cr, we first find the number of moles per unit of cubic centimeter of Cr. Then, use avogadros number for the number of atoms. Calculations are as follows:

1 cm^3 (7.15 g/cm^3) (1 mol / 51.996 g Cr) = 0.14 mol Cr

0.14 mol Cr ( 6.022 x 10^23 atoms Cr / 1 mol Cr ) = 8.28 x 10^22 atoms Cr
