I would personally convert the 12 mg to g so I could see what I was working with. So 12 mg to grams is 0.012 g...

so 1 tablet is 0.012g. the patient needs 0.024 g. 

so 0.024g/0.012g = 2 tablets or 0.012g X 2 is 0.024 g

hope this helps :)

Answer : The number of tablets given should be, 0.5

Explanation :

We are given :

Mass of sulfa drug for a patient = 0.024 g

Total mass of tablets = 12 mg = 12\times 10^{-3}g=0.012g

(Conversion factor: 1 g = 1000 mg)

To calculate the number of tablets, we divide the total mass of tablets to the mass of sulfa drug for a patient.

n=\frac{\text{Total mass of tablets}}{\text{Mass of sulfa drug for a patient}}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

n=\frac{0.012g}{0.024g}\\\\n=0.5

Hence, the number of tablets given should be, 0.5

Answer:

67.1%

Explanation:

Based on the chemical equation, if we determine the moles of sodium carbonate, we can find the moles of NaHCO₃ that reacted and its mass, thus:

<em>Moles Na₂CO₃ - 105.99g/mol-:</em>

6.35g * (1mol / 105.99g) = 0.0599 moles of Na₂CO₃ are produced.

As 1 mole of sodium carbonate is produced when 2 moles of NaHCO₃ reacted, moles of NaHCO₃ that reacted are:

0.0599 moles of Na₂CO₃ * (2 moles NaHCO₃ / 1 mole Na₂CO₃) = 0.1198 moles of NaHCO₃

And the mass of NaHCO₃ in the sample (Molar mass: 84g/mol):

0.1198 moles of NaHCO₃ * (84g / mol) = 10.06g of NaHCO₃ were in the original sample.

And percent of NaHCO₃ in the sample is:

10.06g NaHCO₃ / 15g Sample * 100 =

A 2.17 gm sample barium reacted completely with water what is the equation for the reaction how many milliliters of dry H2 evole
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

400 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of barium = 2.17 g

Pressure = 748 mmHg (748/760 = 0.98 atm)

Temperature = 21 °C ( 273+ 21 = 294k)

Milliliters of H₂ evolved = ?

Solution:

chemical equation:

Ba + 2H₂O →  Ba(OH)₂ + H₂

Number of moles of barium:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.17 g / 137.327 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.016 mol

Now we  will compare the moles of barium with H₂.

                       Ba        :       H₂

                         1         :         1

                  0.016        :     0.016

Milliliters of H₂:

PV = nRT

V = nRT/P

V = 0.016 mol ×  0.0821 atm. mol⁻¹.k⁻¹.L×294 k/0.98 atm

V = 0.39 atm. L/0.98 atm

V = 0.4 L

L to mL

0.4 × 1000 = 400 mL
