It's essentially another word for concentration, of the acid. e.g. "the molarity of the acid is 3moldm^-3"

<span>Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. For example, we are given a solution of 2M NaOH this describes a solution that has 2 moles of NaOH per 1 L volume of the solution. Acids and bases can be measured through the concentrations of H+ and OH- ions in units of molarity. Hope this helps.</span>

The respiration rate of a goldfish is measured. The goldfish is then placed in cold water and the respiration rate is measured a

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Temperature of the water

Explanation:

In every study, there must be independent and dependent variables. An independent variable is the variable that is changed in order to obtain a response. In this case, the temperature of the water is being changed, the response in this experiment is the respiration rate of the goldfish.

Thus the respiration rate of the goldfish is the dependent variable because it is controlled by the temperature of the water and changes accordingly.

Summarily, the independent variable is the temperature of the water while the dependent variable is the respiration rate of the goldfish.

Zn +

saul85 [17]

Answer:

1. Theoretical yield = 2.03g

2. Actual yield 1.89g

Explanation:

Let us write a balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Zn + 2HCI —> ZnCl2 + H2

Molar Mass of HCl = 1 +35.5 = 36.5g/mol

Mass of HCl from the balanced equation = 2 x 36.5 = 73g

Molar Mass of H2 = 2x1 = 2g/mol

1. From the equation,

73g of HCl produced 2g of H2.

Therefore, 74g of HCl will produce = (74 x 2)/73 = 2.03g

Therefore, theoretical yield = 2.03g

2. %yield = 93%

Theoretical yield = 2.03g

Actual yield =?

%yield = Actual yield /Theoretical yield x100

Actual yield = %yield x theoretical yield

Actual yield = 93% x 2.03 = (93/100)x2.03 = 1.89g

Actual yield =1.89g

what is meant by a calibration curve for a colored substance being studied with a spectrophotometer? How is a calibration curve

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The concentration of the analyte is determined by fitting the absorbance or transmittance obtained by spectrophotometric analysis of the unknown solution into the calibration curve.

Explanation:

In a calibration curve, the instrumental response (absorbance or transmittance), is plotted against the concentration of the analyte (the substance to be measured). The analyst is expected to prepare a series of standard solutions of the analyte within a range of solution concentrations close to the expected concentration of analyte in the unknown solution. The method of least squares may be used to determine the best fit of the line, thus, the concentration of the analyte. This method is only used for the determination of the concentration of coloured substances (spectrophotometry).
