(i) We start by calculating the mass of sugar in the solution:

mass of sugar = concentration × solution mass

mass of sugar = 2.5/100 × 500 = 12.5 g

Then now we can calculate the amount of water:

solution mass = mass of sugar + mass of water

mass of water = solution mass - mass of sugar

mass of water = 500 - 12.5 = 487.5 g

(ii) We use the following reasoning:

If 500 g solution contains 12.5 g sugar

Then X g solution contains 75 g sugar

X=(500×75)/12.5 = 3000 g solution

Now to get the amount of solution in liters we use density (we assume that is equal to 1):

Density = mass / volume

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 3000 / 1 = 3000 liters of sugar solution

What is the nuclear binding energy of an atom that has a mass defect of 5.0446

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Option C: 4.54 x $10^{11}$ KJ/mol of nuclei

Note: Here in this question option C is not correctly put. It is 4.54 x $10^{11}$ rather than 4.54 x $10^{-123}$ .

Explanation:

If mass defect is known, then nuclear binding energy can easily be calculated, here's how:

First step is to convert that mass defect into kg.

Mass defect = 5.0446 amu

Mass defect = 5.0466 x 1.6606 x $10^{-27}$

Because 1 amu = 1.6606 x $10^{-27}$ Kg.

Mass defect = 8.383 x $10^{-27}$ kg.

Now, we need to find out it's energy equivalent by using following equation:

Using the equation E = mc²:

where c= 3.00 x $10^{8}$ m/s²

E = (8.383 x $10^{-27}$ ) x (3.00 x $10^{8}$ )²

E = 7.54 x $10^{-10}$ J this energy is in Joules but nuclear binding energy is usually expressed in KJ/mol of nuclei. Let's convert it:

(7.54 x $10^{-10}$ Joule/nucleus)x(1 kJ/1000 Joule)x(6.022 x $10^{23}$ nuclei/mol) =

4.54 x $10^{11}$ kJ/mol of nuclei .

E = 4.54 x $10^{11}$ kJ/mol of nuclei . So, this is the nuclear binding energy of that atom, which is option C.

Note: Here in this question option C is not correctly put. It is 4.54 x $10^{11}$ rather than 4.54 x $10^{-123}$

Burning Mg in the air and reacting with O2 forming a white powder of MnO

So the equation is going to be:
Mn + O2 ⇒ MnO (this equation is not conserved)

to make it equilibrium:
1- First we should put 2Mno to equal the O2 on both sides.
So it will be:
Mg + O2⇒ 2MgO
2- Second we should put 2Mn to equal the Mn on both sides.
2Mg + O2⇒ 2MgO (this equation is conserved)
After putting the physical states the final equilibrium equation is going to be:

2Mg(s) + O2(g)⇒ 2MgO(s)

Why is an electron ejected when green light hits the metal?

Roman55 [17]

Explanation:

If a large photon strikes the surface, that has enough strength to take out an electrode, which will then travel to the positive side since it is negative. Current is flowing at this stage. Since the reduced photons will be unable to distinguish between atoms, no power can pass.
