Answer:

The correct answer is 49.994 ml (≅ 50 ml)

Explanation:

From the definition of molarity, we know that in a 0.38 M solution there are 0.38 mol of magnesium nitrate hexahydrate per liter of solution:

0.38 M= 0.38 mol / L

The first step to solve the problem is to convert the moles of solute to mass (in grams) by using the molecular weight of Mg(NO₃)₂.6H₂O.

Molecular weight of Mg(NO₃)₂.6H₂O= 256.41 g/mol (from the molar mass of the elements).

mass of Mg(NO₃)₂.6H₂O = 0.38 mol x 256.41 g/mol= 97.43 g

So, there are 97.43 g of Mg(NO₃)₂.6H₂O in 1 L of solution (1 L= 1000 ml). We need to know in <u>how many ml of this solution a mass of 4.871 g is contained</u>, so we write the relations and calculate x (in ml):

97.43 g Mg(NO₃)₂.6H₂O --------------------  1000 ml (= 1 L)

4.871 g Mg(NO₃)₂.6H₂O --------------------- x

x= 4.871 g x 1000 ml / 97.43 g= 49.994 ml

Answer:

50 mL

Explanation:

Given data

  • Molar concentration (M): 0.38 M
  • Mass of solute: 4.871 g
  • Molar mass of the solute: 256.41 g/mol

We can find the required volume using the following expression.

M = mass of solute / molar mass of solute × liters of solution

liters of solution = mass of solute / molar mass of solute × M

liters of solution = 4.871 g / 256.41 g/mol × 0.38 mol/L

liters of solution = 0.050 L = 50 mL

Ethylene produced by fermentation has a specific gravity of 0.787 at 25 degree Celsius. What is the volume of 125g of ethanol at
WITCHER [35]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of given amount of ethanol at this temperature is 159.44 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

Specific gravity is given by the formula:

\text{Specific gravity}=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{\text{Density of water}}

We are given:

Density of water = 0.997 g/mL

Specific gravity of ethanol = 0.787

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.787=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{0.997g/mL}\\\\\text{Density of a substance}=(0.787\times 0.997g/mL)=0.784g/mL

Density is defined as the ratio of mass and volume of a substance.

\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}} ......(1)

Given values:

Mass of ethanol = 125 g

Density of ethanol = 0.784 g/mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Volume of ethanol}=\frac{125g}{0.784g/mL}=159.44mL

Hence, the volume of given amount of ethanol at this temperature is 159.44 mL
