A person's blood alcohol (C2H5OH) level can be determined by titrating a sample of blood plasma with a potassium dichromate solu

tion. The balanced equation is 16H (aq) 2Cr2O72−(aq) C2H5OH(aq) → 4Cr3 (aq) 2CO2(g) 11H2O(l) If 35.46 mL of 0.05961 M Cr2O72− is required to titrate 26.60 g of plasma, what is the mass percent of alcohol in the blood?

Answer:

0.18 %

Explanation:

Considering:

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Or,

Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Given :

For Cr_2O_7^{2-} :

Molarity = 0.05961 M

Volume = 35.46 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 35.46×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of Cr_2O_7^{2-} :

Moles=0.05961 \times {35.46\times 10^{-3}}\ moles

Moles of Cr_2O_7^{2-}  = 0.002114 moles

According to the given reaction:

16H^+_{(aq)}+2Cr_2O_7^{2-}_{(aq)}+C_2H_5OH_{(aq)}\rightarrow 4Cr^{3+}_{(aq)}+2CO_2_{(g)}+11H_2O_{(l)}

2 moles of Cr_2O_7^{2-} react with 1 mole of alcohol

Thus,

0.002114 moles  of Cr_2O_7^{2-} react with 1/2*0.002114 mole of alcohol

Moles of alcohol = 0.001057 moles

Molar mass of ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 0.001057 * 46.07 g = 0.048696 g

Mass of plasma = 26.60 g

Mass Percent is the percentage by the mass of compound present in the mixture.

Mass\ \%=\frac{Mass_{ethanol}}{Total\ mass\ of\ plasma}\times 100

Mass\ \%=\frac{0.048696}{26.60}\times 100=0.18\ \%

Iodine 131, cesium 137, and strontium 90 are all considered isotopes. What are isotopes?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Isotopes are variants of an element, where the number of neutrons is different but its number of protons stay the same.

Explanation:

If the number of protons had changed then it would just be a different element.

Electron number changing simply adds charge to the atom, and doesn't change it or anything.

Can someone help me with this please

Answer: B. 1:2

Explanation: Beryllium and chlorine forms a binary ionic compound. Ionic compound is formed when a metal loses its electrons to a receiving non metal. Beryllium (metal) has two valence electrons while chlorine (nonmetal) has seven valence electrons, and so a beryllium atom has to give out its two valence electrons to attain a duplet stable structure while a chlorine atom will gain one electron to attain its stable octet structure. In the reaction between beryllium and chlorine, two atoms of chlorine have to accept the two electrons from one beryllium atom to attain their stable octet structure.

The formula of the compound formed is BeCl2.

4.81*10^24 atoms of lithium
enyata [817]

Answer:

Mass = 55.52 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Li = 4.81×10²⁴ atom

Number of grams = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

For Li:

4.81×10²⁴ atom × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atom

8 moles

Mass in gram:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 8 mol × 6.94 g/mol

Mass = 55.52 g
