A quantity of NaCl was dissolved in 100 cm of solution to obtain

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

2.93g

Explanation:first, let us calculate the number of mole of NaCl present in the solution. This is illustrated below:

Molarity = 0.5M

Volume = 100cm^3 = 100/1000 = 0.1L

Mole =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of NaCl = 0.5 x 0.1 = 0.05mole

Now we can obtain the mass of NaCl as follows:

Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Mole of NaCl = 0.05mol

Mass of NaCl =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of NaCl = 0.05 x 58.5

Mass of NaCl = 2.93g

A lead–tin alloy of composition 30 wt% Sn–70 wt% Pb is slowly heated from a temperature of 150°C (300°F).(a) At what temperature

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

a) 231.9 °C

b) 100% Sn

c) 327.5 °C

d) 100% Pb

Explanation:

This is a mixture of two solids with different fusion point:

$Tf_{Pb}=327.5 C$

$Tf_{Sn}=231.9 C$

Given that Sn has a lower fusion temperature it will start to melt first at that temperature.

So the first liquid phase forms at 231.9 °C and because Pb starts melting at a higher temperature, that phase's composition will be 100% Sn.

The mixture will be completely melted when you are a the higher melting temperature of all components (in this case Pb), so it will all in liquid phase at 327.5 °C.

At that temperature all Sn was already in liquid state and, therefore, the last solid's composition will be 100% Pb.
