Answer: The weight/weight % or percent by mass of the solute is 5.41 %.

Explanation:

Mass of the sodium sulfate,w = 9.74 g

Volume of the water = 165 mL

Density of the water = 1 g/mL

Density=1 g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{\text{Volume of water}}

Mass of the water =1 g/mL\times 165 mL=165 g

Mass of the solution, W:

Mass of solute + Mass of solvent =9.47 g + 165 g=174.47 g

w/w\%=\frac{w\times 100}{W}=\frac{9.45 g\times 100}{174.47 g}=5.41 \%

The weight/weight % or percent by mass of the solute is 5.41 %.

How many grams of water can be formed when 80 grams of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) reacts with an excess of sulfuric acid, H2SO4, in
podryga [215]

Answer:

36g of H2O.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction:

2NaOH + H2SO4 —> Na2SO4 + 2H2O

Next, we shall determine the mass of NaOH that reacted and the mass of H2O produced from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40g/mol

Mass of NaOH from the balanced equation = 2 x 40 = 80g

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 2 x 18 = 36g.

From the balanced equation above, we can see evidently that:

80g of NaOH reacted to produce 36g of H2O.

The lung capacity of the blue whale is 4900 L . Convert this volume into gallons
adell [148]
1 liter = 2.11 pints
8 pints = 1 gallon

4900 L * (2.11 pints/1 L) * (1 gallon/8 pints) = 1292.375 gallons

4900 has 2 significant figures, so our final answer should have two. Your final answer is 1300 gallons.

Balance the following chemical reaction: _NaOH + _H2SO4 ----->_Na2SO4 +_H20
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Sodium Hydroxide + Sulfuric Acid = Sodium Sulfate + Water

2NaOH + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2H2O

Explanation:

To balance a chemical equation, enter an equation of a chemical reaction and press the Balance button. The balanced equation will appear above.

Use uppercase for the first character in the element and lowercase for the second character. Examples: Fe, Au, Co, Br, C, O, N, F.

Ionic charges are not yet supported and will be ignored.

Replace immutable groups in compounds to avoid ambiguity. For example, C6H5C2H5 + O2 = C6H5OH + CO2 + H2O will not be balanced, but XC2H5 + O2 = XOH + CO2 + H2O will.

Compound states [like (s) (aq) or (g)] are not required.

You can use parenthesis () or brackets [].
