What is the percentage strength (w/w) of a solution made by dissolving 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 ml of water?

Percent strength (% w/w) of a solution is defined as the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of the solute, potassium chloride = 62.5 g

Volume of water (solution) = 187.5 ml

We know that the density of water = 1 g/ml

Therefore, the mass corresponding to the given volume of water

= 187.5 ml * 1 g/1 ml = 187.5 g

We have a solution of 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 g water

Therefore, amount of solute in 100 g of water= 62.5 * 100/187.5 = 33.33

The percentage strength = 33.33 %

Which one of the following descriptions relating to nuclear reactions is correct?
monitta

Answer: option D - The total number of nucleons changes.

Explanation:

Nuclear Reaction is best described as a process such as the fission of an atomic nucleus, or the fusion of one or more atomic nuclei and / or subatomic particles in which the NUMBER of PROTONS and / or NEUTRONS in a nucleus CHANGES; the reaction products may contain a different element or a different isotope of the same element.

Note that the NUCLEONS refers to ONE of the subatomic particles of the atomic nucleus, i.e. a PROTON or a NEUTRON.

So, in a Nuclear reaction, the total number of nucleons changes.

After mixing the solutions in a separatory funnel, the stopper should be ________and the liquid should be ________and the layers
sdas [7]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The separation technique is used for separating immiscible liquids.

When separating, the stopper has to be removed when draining the lower layer so as to prevent a vacuum. If vacuum is allowed, the draining rate will reduce and stop.

The liquid should be mixed by shaking the funnel and then opening the stopcock so as the vent out gases.

When near interface between the layers, you should set your eye level so that you do not drain up to the second layer.

After completely draining the first layer, the second layer should be collected in a new flask.

After mixing the solutions in a separatory funnel, the stopper should be removed and the liquid should be mixed thoroughly and the layers allowed to separate. When you get close to the interface between the layers, get eye level with the funnel and slow the draining until the first layer is collected. Switch to a new flask to collect the second layer.

Plz someone help, really struggling
frez [133]

Answer:

22.9 Liters CO(g) needed

Explanation:

2CO(g)     +   O₂(g)    =>    2CO₂(g)

? Liters          32.65g

                 = 32.65g/32g/mol

                 =   1.02 moles O₂

Rxn ratio for CO to O₂ = 2 mole CO(g) to 1 mole O₂(g)

∴moles CO(g) needed = 2 x 1.02 moles CO(g) = 2.04 moles CO(g)

Conditions of standard equation* is STP (0°C & 1atm) => 1 mole any gas occupies 22.4 Liters.

∴Volume of CO(g) = 1.02mole x 22.4Liters/mole = 22.9 Liters CO(g) needed

___________________

*Standard Equation => molecular rxn balanced to smallest whole number ratio coefficients is assumed to be at STP conditions (0°C & 1atm).

Two equilibrium reactions of nitrogen with oxygen, with their corresponding equilibrium constants (Kc) at a certain temperature,
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Kc = 1.54e - 31 / 2.61e - 24

Explanation:

1 )   N_{2}(gas) + O_{2}(gas)\rightarrow 2NO(gas)  ; Kc = 1.54e - 31

2)   N_{2}(gas) + 1/2O_{2}(gas)\rightarrow N_{2}O(gas)  ; Kc = 2.16e - 24

   upon reversing  ( 2 )  equation

     N_{2}O(gas)\rightarrow N_{2}(gas) + 1/2O_{2}(gas)   Kc = 1/2.16e - 24  

    now adding 1 and reversed equation (2)

       N_{2}(gas) + O_{2}(gas)\rightarrow 2NO(gas)

      N_{2}O(gas)\rightarrow N_{2}(gas) + 1/2O_{2}(gas)

   we get ,

                  N_{2}O(gas) + 1/2O_{2}(gas)\rightarrow 2NO(gas)  Kc = 1.54e-31 × 1/2.61e - 24

       equilibrium constant of equation (3) is -

            Kc = 1.54e - 31 / 2.61e - 24
