Answer:

a) 37.04%  b) 37.04%  c) 9.63%

Explanation:

The theoretical percent recovery (Tr), is the total percentage of each compound in the sample. Depending on the technique used to recovery the compounds, the percent recovery will be less than the theoretical, because no technique is 100% efficient.

So, to calculate the theoretical, it will be the mass of the compound divided by the mass of the sample multiplied by 100%.

a) Tr = (250 mg)/(675 mg) * 100%

Tr = 37.04%

b) Tr = (250 mg)/(675 mg) * 100%

Tr = 37.04%

c) Tr = (65 mg)/(675 mg) * 100%

Tr = 9.63%

What is the mass (in grams) of 9.79 × 1024 molecules of methanol (CH3OH)?
nevsk [136]
We will use this formlula: Mass in grams = Number of moles x Molecular mass of 1 mole.

Since, we know the avagadro number is 6.02 x 10²³, we only have two unknown values left which are the molecular mass of CH3OH and its mole.

Molecular Mass: C = 12, H= 1, O = 16, since we have C=12, H4 = 4, O = 16, we will add them up: 12 + 4 + 16 =32

We know that one mole of anything = 6.02 x 10²³.
So we will use this formula to find the mole of methanol: Number of moles = Number of molecules / Avagadro number

Number of moles of CH3OH = (9.79 x 10^24)/6.02 x 10²³) =  16.263 moles.

Now we know that the molecular mass = 32 and the mole is = 16.263.

Now we can find its mass by using this formula: <span>Mass in grams = Number of moles x Molecular mass of 1 mole.
</span>
Mass in grams = 16.263 x 32 = 520g

What is the molarity of a 9.13 L soda that contains 13.83 of sugar?
choli [55]

Answer:

1.52 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is calculated as follows:

Molarity = number of moles (n) ÷ volume (V)

Based on the information given in this question,

Volume of soda (V) = 9.13 L

number of moles = 13.83 mol

Molarity = 13.83 ÷ 9.13

Molarity = 1.52 M
