How do you know if a chemical reaction is balanced ?

1 answer:

Hey there!

We know that a chemical reaction is balanced when there is the same amount of each element on both sides of the equation.

According to the law of conservation of mass, matter cannot be created or destroyed, so we must have the same amount of each element on each side of a chemical equation.

We count the amount of each element on each side, and the products should have the same number as the reactants.

Hope this helps!

Wastewater discharged into a stream by a sugar refinery contains 3.40 g of sucrose (C12H22O11) per liter. A government-industry

Ipatiy [6.2K]

<u>Answer:</u> The pressure that must be applied to the apparatus is 0.239 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the osmotic pressure, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

$\pi=iMRT$

or,

$\pi=i\times \frac{m_{solute}}{M_{solute}\times V_{solution}\text{ (in L)}}}\times RT$

where,

$\pi$ = osmotic pressure of the solution

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

$m_{solute}$ = mass of sucrose = 3.40 g

$M_{solute}$ = molar mass of sucrose = 342.3 g/mol

$V_{solution}$ = Volume of solution = 1 L

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the solution = $20^oC=[20+273]K=293K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\pi =1\times \frac{3.40g}{342.3g/mol\times 1}\times 0.0821\text{ L. atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 293K\\\\\pi =0.239atm$

Hence, the pressure that must be applied to the apparatus is 0.239 atm
