What is the concentration (in M) of a 225ml potassium sulfate solution that contains 4.15g of potassium?

Chemistry

The concentration of solution in M or mol/L can be calculated using the following formula:

C=\frac{n}{V} .... (1)

Here, n is number of moles and V is volume of solution in L.

The molecular formula of potassium sulfate is K_{2}SO_{4} thus, there are 2 moles of potassium in 1 mol of potassium sulfate.

1 mol of potassium will be there in 0.5 mol of potassium sulfate.

Mass of potassium is 4.15 g, molar mass is 39.1 g/mol.

Number of moles can be calculated as follows:

n=\frac{m}{M}

Here, m is mass and M is molar mass

Putting the values,

n=\frac{(4.15 g}{(39.1 g/mol}=0.1061 mol

Thus, number of moles of  K_{2}SO_{4} will be 0.1061\times 0.5=0.053 mol.

The volume of solution is 225 mL, converting this into L,

1 mL=10^{-3}L

Thus,

225 mL=0.225 L

Putting the values in equation (1),

C=\frac{(0.053 mol}{0.225 L}=0.236 M

Therefore, concentration of potassium sulfate solution is 0.236 M.

In the operation of the Heat Transfer Service Unit, one of the variables you can control is the rate of cooling water flowing ag
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

A. The rate of heat transfer through the material would increase.

Explanation:

To calculate the heat transfer in a heat exchanger you decide that there is not heat leakage to the surroundings, that means that  magnitude of the two transfer rates will be equal. Any heat lost by the hot fluid, is gained by the cold fluid. The equation that describes this is Q = m×Cp×dT

Where:

heat = mass flow ×specific heat capacity × temperature difference

So if we increase the rate of flow of cooling water and the other variables that ypu can control remain the same, the result is that the rate of heat transfer through the material would increase, as it is stated in option a.

1. How are electromagnets similar to other magnets?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:a As the name suggests, a permanent magnet is 'permanent'. ... An electromagnet is made from a coil of wire which acts as a magnet when an electric current passes through it. Often an electromagnet is wrapped around a core of ferromagnetic material like steel, which enhances the magnetic field produced by the coil.... hope these helps chu :/

What is the significance of enzymes in maintaining homeostasis in living organisms ?
GalinKa [24]
 Enzymes are needed for metabolic pathways in the body, respiration, digestion and other important life processes. When enzymes function properly, homeostasis is maintained. However, if an enzyme is lacking or has an incorrect shape due to genetic mutation, this can lead to disease within an organism.
