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

A 5.00 gram sample of an oxide of lead PbxOy contains 4.33g of lead. Determine the simplest formula for the compound.
Valentin [98]
PbO2

You have to take the mass of lead in the problem, and divide by the molar mass.
When you do the same with oxygen, you get a number about twice as large as when you divide the mass of lead by the molar mass of lead. This means that the simplest formula  would be PbO2

El plomo y el yodo forman dos compuestos. En uno, el porcentaje de en masa de plomo es del 44,94% y en el otro es de 62,02%. Cal
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

0.8162 gramos de plomo por gramo de yodo

1.633 gramos de plomo por gramo de yodo

Explanation:

Asumiendo una base de 100 gramos para cada compuesto:

Primer compuesto:

Gramos plomo: 44.94g

Gramos de yodo: 100-44.94g = 55.06g

Así, la masa de plomo por gramos de yodo para el primer compuesto es:

44.94g plomo / 55.06g Yodo =

<em>0.8162 gramos de plomo por gramo de yodo</em>

<em></em>

Segundo compuesto:

Gramos plomo: 62.02g

Gramos de yodo: 100-62.02g = 37.98g

La masa de plomo por gramos de yodo para el segundo compuesto es:

62.02g plomo / 37.98g Yodo =

<em>1.633 gramos de plomo por gramo de yodo</em>
