Answer:

Mixture

Explanation:

Mixture -

It refers to the composition of various substance in random proportion , where the mixture formed may or may not have uniform composition , and the various components does not lose their identity and there is no chemical change observed , is referred to as mixture.

For example ,

The mixture of sand and chalk powder , where both the substances mix together to form a mixture , but still retain their property.

Hence , from the given statement of the question,

The correct term is mixture.

There are some data that suggest that zinc lozenges can significantly shorten the duration of a cold. If the solubility of zinc

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$K_{sp}$ of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ is 0.0513

Explanation:

Solubility equilibrium of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ :

$Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}\rightleftharpoons Zn^{2+}+2CH_{3}COO^{-}$

Solubility product of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ ( $K_{sp}$ ) is written as- $K_{sp}=[Zn^{2+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]^{2}$

Where $[Zn^{2+}]$ and $[CH_{3}COO^{-}]$ represents equilibrium concentration (in molarity) of $Zn^{2+}$ and $CH_{3}COO^{-}$ respectively.

Molar mass of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ = 183.48 g/mol

So, solubility of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ = $\frac{43.0}{183.48}M$ = 0.234M

1 mol of $Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}$ gives 1 mol of $Zn^{2+}$ and 2 moles of $CH_{3}COO^{-}$ upon dissociation.

so, $[Zn^{2+}]$ = 0.234 M and $[CH_{3}COO^{-}]$ = $(2\times 0.234)M=0.468M$

so, $K_{sp}=(0.234)\times (0.468)^{2}=0.0513$

Calculate the percent of each component in the mixture. Show your calculations. Circle final answers.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete; as the mixtures are not given.

However, I'll give a general explanation on how to go about it and I'll also give an example.

The percentage of a component in a mixture is calculated as:

$\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%$

Where

E = Amount of element/component

T = Amount of all elements/components

Take for instance:

In $(Ca(OH)_2)$

The amount of all elements is: (i.e formula mass of $(Ca(OH)_2)$ )

$T = 1 * Ca + 2 * H + 2 * O$

$T = 1 * 40 + 2 * 1 + 2 * 16$

$T = 74$

The amount of calcium is: (i.e formula mass of calcium)

$E = 1 * Ca$

$E = 1 * 40$

$E = 40$

So, the percentage component of calcium is:

$\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{40}{74} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{4000}{74}\%$

$\%C_E = 54.05\%$

The amount of hydrogen is:

$E = 2 * H$

$E = 2 * 1$

$E = 2$

So, the percentage component of hydrogen is:

$\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{2}{74} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{200}{74}\%$

$\%C_E = 2.70\%$

Similarly, for oxygen:

The amount of oxygen is:

$E = 2 * O$

$E = 2 * 16$

$E = 32$

So, the percentage component of oxygen is:

$\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{32}{74} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{3200}{74}\%$

$\%C_E = 43.24\%$

Naturally occurring silicon has an atomic mass of 28.086 and consists of three isotopes. The major isotope is 28Si, natural abun

Elden [556K]

Answer:

29Si has a natural abundance of 4.68%.

30Si has a relative atomic mass of 29.99288 and a natural abundance of 3.09%.

Explanation:

The atomic mass of silicon is given by:

Si=Si²⁸×A₁+Si²⁹×A₂+Si³⁰×A₃

Where:

Si: atomic mass of silicon (28.086)

Si²⁸: relative atomic mass of 28Si (27.97693)

A₁: natural abundance of 28Si (92.23%)

Si²⁹: relative atomic mass of 29Si (28.97649)

A₂: natural abundance of 29Si

Si³⁰: relative atomic mass of 30Si

A₃: natural abundance of 30Si

We also know that 30Si natural abundance is in the ratio of 0.6592 to that of 29Si.

We have to set up a system of three equations in three unknowns:

Si=Si²⁸×A₁+Si²⁹×A₂+Si³⁰×A₃

A₃=0.6592×A₂

A₁+A₂+A₃=1

First, we find substitute the value of A₃ in the third equation and solv teh value of A₂:

A₁+A₂+0.6592×A₂=1

A₁+1.6592×A₂=1

1.6592×A₂=1-A₁

A₂= $\frac{1-A₁}{1.6592}=\frac{1-0.9223}{1.6592}$ =0.0468

Then, we find the value of A₃:

A₃=0.6592×A₂

A₃=0.6592×0.0468=0.0309

Finally, we find the value of Si³⁰ in the first equation:

Si=Si²⁸×A₁+Si²⁹×A₂+Si³⁰×A₃

28.086=27.97693×0.9223+28.97649×0.0468+Si³⁰×0.0309

28.086=27.15922+Si³⁰×0.0309

28.086-27.15922=Si³⁰×0.0309

$\frac{0.92678}{0.0309}$ =Si³⁰

Si³⁰=29.99288
