Answer:

Specififc rotation [∝] = 0.5° mL/g.dm

Explanation:

Given that:

mass = 400 mg

volume = 10 mL

For a solution,

The Concentration = mass/volume

Concentration = 400/10

Concentration = 40 g/mL

The path length l = 20 cm = 2 dm

Observed rotation [∝] = + 40°

Specififc rotation [∝] = ∝/l × c

where;

l = path length

c = concentration

Specififc rotation [∝] = (40 / 2 × 40)

Specififc rotation [∝] = 0.5° mL/g.dm

BartSMP [9]

Not sure what you are asking. I have two possible answers though...

It could either be more negatively charged, or valence electrons.

The more away from the nucleus a electron is, the more negatively charged it is.

The electrons on the outermost electron shell is valence electrons.

Again, I don't know what you were asking, but one of these answers may be correct.

A gas occupies 200ml at a temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and 76mmHg pressure. Find the volume at -3degree Celsius with the pr
sergey [27]

Answer:

184.62 ml

Explanation:

Let p_1, v_1, and T_1 be the initial and p_2, v_2, and T_2 be the final pressure, volume, and temperature of the gas respectively.

Given that the pressure remains constant, so

p_1=p_2 ...(i)

v_1 = 200 ml

T_1= 26 ^{\circ}C = 273+26 =299 K

T_2= 3 ^{\circ}C = 273+3 =276 K

From the ideal gas equation, pv=mRT

Where p is the pressure, v is the volume, T is the temperature in Kelvin, m is the mass of air in kg, R is the specific gas constant.

For the initial condition,

p_1v_1=mRT_1 \\\\mR= \frac{p_1v_1}{T_1}\cdots(ii)

For the final condition,

p_2v_2=mRT_2 \\\\mR= \frac{p_2v_2}{T_2}\cdots(iii)

Equating equation (i), and (ii)

\frac{p_1v_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2v_2}{T_2}

\frac{v_1}{T_1}=\frac{v_2}{T_2}  [from equation (i)]

v_2=\frac{T_2}{T_1} \times v_1

Putting all the given values, we have

v_2=\frac{276}{299} \times 200 = 184.62 \; ml

Hence, the volume of the gas at 3 degrees Celsius is 184.62 ml.

How many moles of HNO3 are present if 4.90×10−2 mol of Ba(OH)2 was needed to neutralize the acid solution?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

0.098 moles

Explanation:

Let y represent the number of moles present

1 mole of Ba(OH)₂ contains 2 moles of OH- ions.

Hence, 0.049 moles of Ba(OH)2 contains y moles of OH- ions.

To get the y moles, we then do cross multiplication

1 mole *  y mole = 2 moles * 0.049 mole

y mole = 2 * 0.049 / 1

y mole =  0.098 moles of OH- ions.

1 mole of OH- can neutralize 1 mole of H+

Therefore, 0.098 moles of HNO₃ are present.
