1.64 + 4.66 = 6.3
1.64/6.3 = 0.2603174603 = 26%

Answer : The percentage of salt in the mixture is 73.65 %

Explanation : Given,

Mass of salt = 1.64 lb

Mass of water = 4.66 lb

First we have to calculate the mass of mixture.

Mass of mixture = Mass of salt + Mass of water

Mass of mixture = 1.64 + 4.66 = 6.3 lb

Now we have to calculate the percentage of salt in the mixture.

Formula used :

\% \text{ of salt}=\frac{\text{Mass of salt}}{\text{Mass of mixture}}\times 100

Now put all the given vales in this formula, we get:

\% \text{ of salt}=\frac{4.64lb}{6.3lb}\times 100=73.65\%

Therefore, the percentage of salt in the mixture is 73.65 %

The weak acid HZ has a Ka of 2.55x10⁻⁴.(a) Calculate the pH of 0.075 M HZ.
Dima020 [189]

<u>2.37</u> is the pH of 0.075 M HZ.

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

The term pH, which originally stood for "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen"), is used in chemistry to describe how acidic or basic an aqueous solution is. Lower pH values are summarized for acidic solutions (solutions with higher H+ ion concentrations) than for basic or alkaline solutions.

The pH scale is inversely indicates to the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution and is logarithmic.

⇒pH = -log(a_{H+})

Acidic solutions are those with a pH below 7, and basic solutions are those with a pH above 7, at a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F). At this temperature, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral (e.g. pure water). The pH neutrality relies on temperature, falling below 7 if the temperature rises above 25 °C.

How many total atoms are in 0.680 g of P₂O5?
Ludmilka [50]

Answer: 2.88×10^{24}atoms P_{2}O_{5}

Explanation: First, using stoichiometry, we must convert this from grams to moles, then from moles to atoms.

1. For the first step, we should also look at the periodic table to find the molar mass of the compound, then use that as the denominator.

0.680g P_{2} O_{5} *\frac{1molP_{2} O_{5} }{141.948gP_{2} O_{5} } =4.79mol P_{2} O_{5}

2. Now that it is converted to moles, we must convert it to atoms by multiplying it by Avogadro's number.

4.79molP_{2} O_{5} *\frac{6.022X10^{23} }{1mol} =2.88*10^{24}

With this information, we know that there are 2.88X10^{24} total atoms in 0.680 grams P_{2} O_{5}.

I hope this helps! Pls give brainliest!! :)

The atmosphere is about 21% oxygen. At a pressure of 749 torr, what is the partial pressure of O2?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

157.29 Torr

Explanation:

This question may be solved by the mole fraction.

Mole fraction → Moles of gas / Total moles = Partial pressure of gas / Total pressure

If the atmosphere is about 21% you assume that the mole fraction is 0.21 so:

0.21 = Partial pressure of gas / Total pressure

0.21 = Partial pressure of gas / 749 Torr

Partial pressure of the gas = 749 Torr . 0.21 →  157.29 Torr
