Sodium dodecanoate is soluble in water even though it contains a large hydrophobic segment. How does this molecule interact with

its surroundings to facilitate solubility?

Answer:

Sodium laurate, also known as sodium dodecanoate, is a soap. It is the salt of lauric acid. It is an amphiphilic organic molecule which is composed of a hydrophilic head (polar ) and a hydrophobic tail (non-polar fatty acid).

In a aqueous solution, it leads to the formation of a micelle. The hydrophilic head of the molecule interacts with the surrounding polar solvent molecules. Thereby, making the micelle soluble in the solution. Whereas, the hydrophobic tails present in the core of micelle, interacts with the non-polar oil particles.

1. NA = Sodium, NA was the chemicals symbols for the element would be NA because in Latin it is natrium for natron in which is sodium in English, Sodium was created by Humphry Davy in the year of 1807. Element name Sodium, Chemical symbol NA atomic number, 11 Atomic mass 23.

2. AG = Sliver, AG was the chemicals symbols for the element would be AG because in Latin it is argentum in which in English means bright and also sliver.  Element name Sliver Chemical symbol AG atomic number, 47 Atomic mass 108.

A solution was prepared by mixing 50.00 ml of 0.100 M of HNO3 and 100.00 ml of 0.200 M HNO3. Calculate the molarity of the final
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The molarity of this final solution is 0.167 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of a 0.100 M HNO3 solution = 50.0 mL

Volume of a 0.200 M HNO3 = 100.0 mL

Step 2: Calculate moles

The final molarity must lie between 0.1M and 0.2M  

Moles = molarity * volume

Moles HNO3 in 50mL of a 0.100M solution = 0.05 L *0.100 M = 0.005 mol

Moles HNO3 in 100mL of a 0.200M solution = 0.100 L*0.200 = 0.020mol

total moles = 0.005+0.020 = 0.025 moles in 150mL solution = 0.150L

Step 3: Calculate molarity of final solution

Molarity = mol / volume

Molarity 0.025 moles /0.150  L

Molarity = 0.167M

The molarity of this final solution is 0.167 M
