Explanation:

A. % (m/m)

Mass of KNO3 solution = mass of water + mass of dry KNO3

%(m/m) = (mass of KNO3/total mass of KNO3 solution) * 100

= (3.26/15.78) * 100

= 20.66 %

B. %(m/v)

%(m/v) = (mass of dry KNO3/volume of KNO3 solution) * 100

= 3.26/15 * 100

= 21.73 %

C. molarity

Molar mass of KNO3 = 39 + 14 + (3*16)

= 101 g/mol

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 3.26/101

= 0.0323 mol.

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of the solute per unit volume of solution.

Molarity = 0.0323/0.015

= 2.15 M.

Answer:

a) 20.65%

b) 21.73%

c) 2.15 M

Explanation:

The mass conservation law in preparation or dilution of solutions, explains that the number of moles/mass of solute does not change after adding more solvent to dilute or removing more solvent to concentrate the solution.

The total volume of solution = 15.0 mL = 0.015 L

The total weight of solution = 15.78 g

The weight of the solute = 3.26 g.

The number of moles of KNO₃ = mass/molar mass of KNO₃

Molar mass of KNO₃ = 101.10 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.26/101.1 = 0.0322 mole

a) The weight percent in (%m/m) = 3.26/15.78 = 0.2065 = 20.65%.

b) The weight percent in (%mass/volume) = 3.26/15.0 = 0.2173 = 21.73%.

c) Molarity (mol/volume in L) = 0.0322/0.015= 2.15 M

oxygen is a common oxidizing agent in nature. what change in the oxidation number of oxygen must occur if it is to be an oxidizi
Minchanka [31]

Answer is: the oxidation number of oxygen must decrease.

Oxidizing agent is element (substance) that gain electrons in chemical reaction.

For example, balanced chemical reaction: C + O₂ → CO₂.

Oxygen change oxidation number from 0 to oxidation number -2 (reduction) and carbon change from 0 to +4 (oxidation)

The frequency of stretching vibrations is correlated to the strength and stiffness of the bond between two atoms. This can be th
Leona [35]

Answer:

a > c > b

Explanation:

As higher is the strength and stiffness of the bond between two atoms, more stable it is, and more difficult is to these bonds vibrate. So, the stretching vibration decreases when the strength and stiffness increases.

As more bonds are done between the atoms, more strength, and stiffness they have. So, the order of increase is:

simple bond > double bond > triple bond

And the increased frequency of vibration is:

triple bond > double bond > simple bond

An alkane is a hydrocarbon that has only simple bonds between carbons, an alkene is a hydrocarbon with one double bond between carbon, and an alkyne is a hydrocarbon with one triple bond. So, the increase in vibration of them is:

alkyne (a) > alkene (c) > alkane (b)

In a room full of air, the air is mainly composed of Nitrogen and Oxygen molecules (both at room temperature). Find (to two sign
zloy xaker [14]

Explanation:

Expression for the v_{rms} speed is as follows.

            v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}

where,   v_{rms} = root mean square speed

                     k = Boltzmann constant

                    T = temperature

                    M = molecular mass

As the molecular weight of oxygen is 0.031 kg/mol and R = 8.314 J/mol K. Hence, we will calculate the value of v_{rms} as follows.

               v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}

                            = \sqrt{\frac{3 \times 8.314 J/mol K \times 309.02 K}{0.031 kg/mol}}

                            = 498.5 m/s

Hence, v_{rms} for oxygen atom is 498.5 m/s.

For nitrogen atom, the molecular weight is 0.028 kg/mol. Hence, we will calculate its v_{rms} speed as follows.

                v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}

                              = \sqrt{\frac{3 \times 8.314 J/mol K \times 309.92 K}{0.028 kg/mol}}

                              = 524.5 m/s

Therefore, v_{rms} speed for nitrogen is 524.5 m/s.

<h3>What is gamma radiation?</h3>

Gamma radiation (gamma rays) refers to the part of the electromagnetic spectrum with the most energy and shortest wavelength. Astrophysicists define gamma radiation as any radiation with an energy above 100 keV. Physicists define gamma radiation as high-energy photons released by nuclear decay.

Using the broader definition of gamma radiation, gamma rays are released by sources including gamma decay, lightning, solar flares, matter-antimatter annihilation, the interaction between cosmic rays and matter, and many astronomical sources. Gamma radiation was discovered by Paul Villard in 1900.

Gamma radiation is used to study the universe, treat gemstones, scan containers, sterilize foods and equipment, diagnose medical conditions, and treat some forms of cancer.
