So my chem experiment asks us: What is the molarity of a 6.0 ppm solution (it's a 6.0 ppm chlorophyll solution, hexane is the so

lvent)
Now, I've found a few ways to solve for it but they both give me different values. If it's possible, could you just tell me which is right.
#1 Way: 6parts/1million --> 0.006g/L --> take 0.006g convert w/ molar mass chlorophyll (1 mole/ 893.49 g) --> 6.71524 *10^(-6) moles
put 6.71524 *10^(-6) over 1L --> 6.71524 *10^(-6) M
0R 6parts/1million --> 6g/1000,000g --> take 6g convert w/ molar mass chlorophyll (1 mole/ 893.49 g) --> 6.71524 *10^(-3) moles
use hexane's density to convert 1000,000g to (mL first then) L (density: 1mL/0.6548g) --> 1527.18388 L
put 6.71524 *10^(-3) moles over 1527.18388 L --> 4.397*10^(-6) M
OR 6parts/1million -->6g/1000,000g take 6g convert w/ molar mass chlorophyll (1 mole/ 893.49 g) --> 6.71524 *10^(-3) moles
put 6.71524 *10^(-3) moles over 1000,000 --> 6.71524 *10^(-9) M
I think the second one is the right one but I'm not sure. Could you please help me? Thanks!

The second approach is correct. The other two approaches are not correct because they are incomplete; first approach would have been right IF the 6.0 ppm was MEASURED in hexane. Third approach cannot be right since it calculates moles and grams but not L.

Answer:

The first option is correct.

Explanation:

Concentration of chlorophyll is the ppm = 6.0 ppm

(1 ppm = 1 mg/kg)

6.0 ppm = 6.0 mg/kg

Mass of chlorophyll = 6.0 mg= 0.006 g (1 mg = 0.001 g)

Moles of chlorophyll =\frac{0.006 g}{893.49 g/mol}=6.71524\times 10^{-6} mol

volume of the solution = 1 L

Concentration(c) = \frac{n}{V(L)}

Where : n = moles of the compound

V = Volume of the solution

Concentration of the chlorophyll :

\frac{6.71524\times 10^{-6} mol}{1 L}=6.71524\times 10^{-6} M

Why does mantle rock begin to sink back towards the lower mantle from the area closest to the crust?
Delvig [45]

Answer: Convection Currents

Explanation: The mantle rock is solid and denser because it is cooler. This means it will sink closer to lower mantle as warmer, lense dense rock/magma moves upwards.

At what time will the pressure of SO₂Cl₂ decline to 0.50 its initial value? Express your answer using two significant figures.
QveST [7]

Answer: The time is 0.69/k seconds

Explanation:

The following integrated first order rate law

ln[SO₂Cl₂] - ln[SO₂Cl₂]₀ = - k×t

where

[SO₂Cl₂] concentration at time t,

[SO₂Cl₂]₀ initial concentration,

k rate constant

Therefore, the time elapsed after a certain concentration variation is given by:

t=\frac{ln[SO_{2}Cl_{2}]_{0} - ln[SO_{2}Cl_{2}]}{k}=\frac{ln\frac{[SO_{2}Cl_{2}]_{0}}{[SO_{2}Cl_{2}]} }{k}

We could assume that SO₂Cl₂ behaves as a ideal gas mixture so partial pressure is proportional to concentration:

p_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}V = n_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}RT

[SO_{2}Cl_{2}]= \frac{n_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}}{V}}=\frac{p_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}}{RT}}

In conclusion,

t = ln( p(SO₂Cl₂)₀/p(SO₂Cl₂) )/k

t=\frac{ln\frac{p_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}_{0}}{p_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}} }{k}

for

p_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}=0.5p_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}_{0}

t=\frac{ln\frac{p_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})}_{0}}{0.5p_{(SO_{2}Cl_{2})_{0}}} }{k}

t=\frac{ln\frac{1}{0.5} }{k}

t=\frac{ln(2)}{k}

t=\frac{0.69}{k}}
