Answer:

Explanation: Specific gravity is a dimensionless quantity; that is, it is not expressed in units. To find the sp gr of a solid or liquid, you must know its density in kilograms per meter cubed (kg/m3) or in grams per centimeter cubed (g/cm3). Then, divide this density by the density of pure water in the same units.

What is the concentration of a 1:10 dilution of a 2.5 M solution of NaCl? How would you prepare exactly 100 ml of such a solutio

Marina CMI [18]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of the solution is 0.25 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let the volume of solution of 2.5 M NaCl be 10 mL

We are given:

Dilution ratio = 1 : 10

So, the solution prepared will have a volume of = $\frac{10}{1}\times 1000=100mL$

To calculate the molarity of the diluted solution, we use the equation:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

where,

$M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the molarity and volume of the concentrated NaCl solution

$M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the molarity and volume of diluted NaCl solution

We are given:

$M_1=2.5M\\V_1=10mL\\M_2=?M\\V_2=100mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$2.5\times 10=M_2\times 100\\\\M_2=\frac{2.5\times 10}{100}=0.25M$

Hence, the concentration of the solution is 0.25 M

Calculate the Density of the substances below to determine if they will float or sink in water.

Reil [10]

Explanation:

If the density of the object is more than that of water, it will sink. Otherwise it will float. The density of water is 1 g/mL.

Substance 1,

Mass, m = 450 g, Volume, V = 90 mL

Density = mass/volume

So,

$d_1=\dfrac{450}{90}\\\\=5\ g/mL$

It will sink.

Substance 2,

Mass, m = 35 g, Volume, V = 70 mL

Density = mass/volume

So,

$d_2=\dfrac{35}{70}\\\\=0.5\ g/mL$

It will float.

Substance 3,

Mass, m = 24 g, Volume, V = 12 mL

Density = mass/volume

So,

$d_3=\dfrac{24}{12}\\\\=2\ g/mL$

It will sink.

Explain how the random motion of molecules produces a concentration gradient and a net movement of solute

mixer [17]

Random motion of molecules produces a concentration gradient and a net movement of solute as random movement of molecules causes diffusion that causes movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentration . No ATP is required in this process. This causes movement of solute molecules and causes concentration gradient.
