Answer : The concentration of solution is, 8.53 M.

Explanation :

As we are given, 45.0 mass % solution of ethanol in water that means 45.0 g of ethanol present in 100 g of solution.

First we have to calculate the volume of solution.

$\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solution}}{\text{Density of solution}}$

$\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{100g}{0.873g/mL}=114.5mL$

Now we have to calculate the molarity of solution.

Mass of $C_2H_5OH$ = 45.0 g

Volume of solution = 114.5 mL

Molar mass of $C_2H_5OH$ = 46.07 g/mole

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of volume of solution.

Formula used :

$\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Mass of }C_2H_5OH\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of }C_2H_5OH\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

$\text{Molarity}=\frac{45.0g\times 1000}{46.07g/mole\times 114.5mL}=8.53mole/L=8.53M$

Therefore, the concentration of solution is, 8.53 M.

1. What amount of ammonia (in moles) is produced by the reaction of 4.00 mol H2 with 3.00 mol Nz?

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

<h2>Answer: 6 moles</h2>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

3 H₂ + N₂ → 2 NH₃

↓ ↓

4 mol 3 mol

Since the moles of N₂ is the smaller of the two reactants, then N₂ is the limiting factor (the reactant that will decide how much ammonia is produced since it has the smaller amount of moles). ∴ we have to use it in calculating the number of moles of ammonia

The mole ratio of N₂ to NH₃ based on the balanced equation is 1 to 2.

∴ the moles of NH₃ = moles of N₂ × 2

= 3 moles × 2

= 6 moles

1. An electric power plant uses energy from burning coal to generate steam at 450 °C. The plant is cooled by 20 °C water

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

Efficiency of the electric power plant is $e=1-\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$

Here Temperature of hot source $T_{1} = 450^{o}C=450+273=723 K$

and Temperature of sink $T_{1} = 20^{o}C=20+273=293 K$

Hence the efficiency is $e=1-\frac{293}{723}=0.5947=59.47%$

Now another formula for thermal efficiency Is

$e_{therm}=\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

Here QI is the of heat taken from source 100 MJ ; Q2 of heat transferred to the sink (river) to be found

W is the of work done and W = QI -Q2

Hence From $e_{therm}=\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{2}}{Q_{1}}=\frac{W}{Q_{1}}$

$W=e(Q_{1})=(0.5947)(100)=59.47MJ$

Hence the of heat transferred to the river Is $Q_{2} -W = (100 -59.47=40.53$

Which formula can be used to calculate the theoretical yield?

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Option C, (Actual yield ÷ percent yield) × 100

Explanation:

Theoretical yield is defined as the total amount of product formed for given reactants in a chemical reaction. It is an ideal case which assumes no exceptions or wastage.

The mathematical relation between the actual yield, percent yield and theoretical yield is as follows -

$P.Y. = \frac{M_{A.Y.}}{M_{T.Y.}} * 100$

Where

P.Y. represents the percent yield a

M A.Y. represents the mass obtained from actual yield

M T.Y. represents the mass obtained from theoretical yield

Hence, if we rearrange the formula, we get -

$M_{T.Y.} = \frac{M_{A.Y.}}{P.Y.} * 100$

Hence, option C is correct
