Answer: The molar mass of the given compound is $1.11\times 10^2 g/mol$

Explanation:

In molecular formula of $CaCl_2$ there are two chlorine atoms and one calcium atom.

The atomic mass of the calcium = 40.07 g/mol

The atomic mass of chlorine = 35.5 g/mol

Molar mass of the guven compound is :

$40.07 g/mol + 2\times 35.5 g/mol=111.07 g/mol\approx 1.11\times 10^2 g/mol$

The molar mass of the given compound is $1.11\times 10^2 g/mol$

When iridium-192 is used in cancer treatment, a small cylindrical piece of 192ir, 0.6 mm in diameter and 3.5 mm long, is surgica

Ivan

Iridium-192 is used in cancer treatment, a small cylindrical piece of 192 Ir, 0.6 mm in diameter (0.3mm radius) and 3.5 mm long, is surgically inserted into the tumor. if the density of iridium is 22.42 g/cm3, how many iridium atoms are present in the sample?

Let us start by computing for the volume of the cylinder. V = π(r^2)*h where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder, respectively. Let's convert all given dimensions to cm first. Radius = 0.03 cm, height is 0.35cm long.

V = π * (0.03cm)^2 * 0.35 cm = 9.896*10^-4 cm^3

Now we have the volume of 192-Ir, let's use the density provided to get it's mass, and once we have the mass let's use the molar mass to get the amount of moles. After getting the amount of moles, we use Avogadro's number to convert moles into number of atoms. See the calculation below and see if all units "cancel":

9.896*10^-4 cm^3 * (22.42 g/cm3) * (1 mole / 191.963 g) * (6.022x10^23 atoms /mole)

= 6.96 x 10^19 atoms of Ir-122 are present.

What are the limitations of litmus paper and Phenolphthalein indicators? Name to other indicators that can be used that do not h

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Here's what I find.

Explanation:

An indicator is usually is a weak acid in which the acid and base forms have different colours. Most indicators change colour over a narrow pH range.

(a) Litmus

Litmus is red in acid (< pH 5) and blue in base (> pH 8).

This is a rather wide pH range, so litmus is not much good in titrations.

However, the range is which it changes colour includes pH 7 (neutral), so it is good for distinguishing between acids and bases.

(b) Phenolphthalein

Phenolphthalein is colourless in acid (< pH 8.3) and red in base (> pH 10).

This is a narrow pH range, so phenolphthalein is good for titrating acids with strong bases..

However, it can't distinguish between acids and weakly basic solutions.

It would be colourless in a strongly acid solution with pH =1 and in a basic solution with pH = 8.

(c) Other indicators

Other acid-base indicators have the general limitations as phenolphthalein. Most of them have a small pH range, so they are useful in acid-base titrations.

The only one that could serve as a general acid-base indicator is bromothymol blue, which has a pH range of 6.0 to 7.6.

Carbon burns in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide. Which chemical equation describes this reaction?

Phoenix [80]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that for writing a chemical reaction equation, reactants are written on left hand side whereas products are written on right hand side.

And in between reactants and products a forward arrow is placed pointing towards the products.

Therefore, the reaction for carbon burns in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide will be written as follows.

$Carbon + Oxygen \rightarrow Carbon dioxide$

Here, carbon and oxygen atoms are the reactants whereas carbon dioxide is the product.
