The molarity of KOH is 0.98 M.

<u>Explanation:</u>

KOH + HBr →KBr + H₂O

As per the above reaction, equal moles of KBr and HBr reacts to form 1 mole of KBr and 1 mole of water. We have to find the molarity of KOH by using the law of Volumetric analysis using the equation as,

V1M1 = V2M2

Here V1 and M1 are the volume and molarity of HBr.

V2 and M2 are the volume and molarity of KOH .

We can find the molarity of KOH as,

$$ M2= \frac{V1\times M1}{V2}$

Plugin the values as,

$$ M2 = \frac{15.40 ml \times 1.4 M}{22.10 ml}$

= 0.98 M

So the molarity of KOH is 0.98 M.

The molar mass of I2 is 253.80 g/mol, and the molar mass of NI3 is 394.71 g/mol. How many moles of I2 will form 3.58 g of NI3?

Nat2105 [25]

To answer the problem above first we need to find the difference of molar mass of NI3 from I2, 394.71 g/mol - 253.80 g/mol = 140.91 g/mol. Knowing the molar mass of the difference of NI3 from I2, in equation mass (g) / moles (mol) = molar mass, then we substitute. 3.58g / moles = 140.91 g/mol.
moles = 3.58 / 140.91 = 0.025 moles.

If the caterpillar keeps moving at the same speed, how long will it take to travel 6cm?

Solnce55 [7]

It will take 15 s to travel 6 cm

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

distance versus time graph

Required

time travel

Solution

Caterpillar motion is a straight motion with a constant speed, so that the graph between distance and time forms a diagonal line

If we look at the graph, we can determine the time taken when the distance reaches 6 cm (y axis) by drawing a line to the diagonal line and cutting the x-axis as time, and we get 15 s

Or we can also use the formula for motion at constant speed:

d = v x t

With v at point 2,5 of 2/5 m / s, so the time taken:

$\tt t=\dfrac{d}{v}=\dfrac{6}{2/5}=15~s$
