Sodium carbonate (NaCO3) is sometimes used as a water-softening agent. Suppose that a worker prepares a 0.730 M solution of NaCO

3 and water. The volume of the solution is 1.421 liters. What is the mass of solute in the solution?

The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of a substance divided by the volume in liters prepared.

molarity=\frac{n}{V}, where n is number of moles and V is the volume in liters.

In order to calculate the mass of solute we need to convert the volume and molarity to moles

1.421 L solution \times\frac{0.0730 moles}{1 Lsolution}= 1.037 mol NaCO_3

Now that we have moles we use the relative formula mass of NaCO₃, We have 1 Na atom, 1 C atom and 3 O atoms, thus

M_r= (1\times 22.99) + (1\times 12.00) + (3\times 16.00)= 82.99g/mol

1.037 \times\frac{82.99g}{mol} = 86.1g

Answer is: the mass of solute in the solution is 110 grams.

c(Na₂CO₃) = 0.730 M; molarity of sodium carbonate solution.

V(Na₂CO₃) = 1.421 L; volume of solution.

n(Na₂CO₃) = c(Na₂CO₃) · V(Na₂CO₃).

n(Na₂CO₃) = 0.73 mol/L · 1.421 L.

n(Na₂CO₃) = 1.037 mol; amount of solute.

M(Na₂CO₃) = 106 g/mol; molar mass of sodium carbonate.

m(Na₂CO₃) = n(Na₂CO₃) · M(Na₂CO₃).

m(Na₂CO₃) = 1.037 mol · 106 g/mol.

m(Na₂CO₃) = 110 g; mass of sodium carbonate.

If 100.0 grams of na3n decompose to form sodium and nitrogen, how many moles of sodium are formed? write and balance equation be
Yakvenalex [24]
The balanced equation is:
2Na_3N-\ \textgreater \ 6Na + N_2

Then proceed with the following equations.


100g Na_3N*(\frac{1molNa_3N}{82.98gNa_3N})*(\frac {6mol Na}{2molNa_3N})*(\frac {22.99gNa}{1molNa})=83.12gNa

The answer is 83.12gNa.

What do you think might be different between fat molecules and carbohydrate and protein molecules?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Long answer

Proteins are the building blocks of the body, each and every organ muscle and skin and cells are made of proteins. They can also be used for providing energy to the body in a state where other energy sources aren't available.

Fats are stored energy blocks which can be used by the body at its own convenience whenever there is a deficit of energy in the body. They can also be directly burnt to give energy in cases where energy needs of the body are not met by dietary intake

Carbohydrates are the most convenient and preferable source of energy in the body and are easily converted to give out immidiate energy to the body, excess carbohydrates can be converted into fats and stored for later usage as and when required by the body.

Proteins, fats and carbohydrates have many secondary functions and roles in the human body. If you are keen to know anything more specific feel free to ask.

<h3>Short answer :</h3>

Fats are used for energy after they are broken into fatty acids. Protein can also be used for energy, but the first job is to help with making hormones, muscle, and other proteins.
