A balloon contains 11.1 g of nitrogen monoxide gas (NO). how many molecules are in the balloon?
grandymaker [24]

The number of molecules that are in balloon are = 2.227 x10^23 molecules

<h3> calculation</h3>

calculate the number of moles of NO

moles = mass/molar mass

molar mass  of NO = 14+ 16 = 30 g/mol

moles is therefore=  11.1 g/30g/mol= 0.37 moles

by use of Avogadro's constant that is

                                     1 mole= 6.02 x10^23  molecules

                                          0.37 =? molecules

=(6.02 x10^23 x  0.37 moles)/ 1mole=2.227 x10^23 molecules

Consider a mixture of NaCl and NaNO3 that is 31.8% Na by mass. Calculate the percentage by mass of NaCl in the mixture.
lutik1710 [3]

<u>Answer:</u> The percentage by mass of NaCl in the mixture is 38.5 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass percentage of element in compound, we use the equation:

\text{Mass percent of element}=\frac{\text{Mass of element}}{\text{Mass of compound}}\times 100      .......(1)

  • <u>For NaCl:</u>

Mass of sodium element = 23 g

Mass of NaCl = 58.5 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Mass percent of sodium element}=\frac{23g}{58.5g}\times 100=39.32\%

Mass fraction of sodium metal in NaCl = 0.3932

  • <u>For NaNO_3 :</u>

Mass of sodium element = 23 g

Mass of NaNO_3 = 85 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Mass percent of sodium element}=\frac{23g}{85g}\times 100=27.1\%

Mass fraction of sodium metal in sodium nitrate = 0.271

Let us assume the mass fraction of NaCl in the mixture is 'x'

So, the mass fraction of NaNO_3 in the mixture will be '(1-x)'

We are given:

Percent by mass of Na in the mixture = 31.8 %

Mass fraction of Na in the mixture = 0.318

Evaluating the mass fraction of NaCl in the mixture:

[(x\times 0.3932)+((1-x)\times 0.271)]=0.318

x = 0.385

Percent by mass of NaCl in the mixture will be = (0.385\times 100)=38.5\%

Hence, the percentage by mass of NaCl in the mixture is 38.5 %

What is the pH of a 1 ´ 10-5 M KOH solution?
melisa1 [442]
KOH -------------> K⁺   +  OH⁻

pOH = - log [ OH⁻ ]

pOH = - log [ 1 x 10⁻⁵ ]

pOH =  5

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 5 = 14

pH = 14 - 5

pH = 9

hope this helps!
