Answer:
(1) 0.0016 mol/L
Explanation:
Let the concentration of alcohol after 3.5 hours be y M
The reaction follows a first-order
Rate = ky^0 = change in concentration/time
k = 6.4×10^-5 mol/L.min
Initial concentration = 0.015 M
Concentration after 3.5 hours = y M
Time = 3.5 hours = 3.5×60 = 210 min
6.4×10^-5y^0 = 0.015-y/210
y^0 = 1
0.015-y = 6.4×10^-5 × 210
0.015-y = 0.01344
y = 0.015 - 0.01344 = 0.00156 = 0.0016 mol/L (to 4 decimal places)
<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of zinc oxalate is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

We are given:
Moles of zinc oxalate =
(Conversion factor:
)
Volume of solution = 450 mL
Putting values in above equation, we get:

In case of multiplication and division, the number of significant digits is taken from the value which has least precise significant digits. Here, the least precise number of significant digits are 2.
Hence, the concentration of zinc oxalate is 
It will always produce a near-exact measurement
