Answer:

4 liters

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) M = 0.5 M

Note: since the question is about volume (liters) and moles of solute, the correct unit for the concentration of the hydroxide solution is M (upper case) which is the unit for molarity. Lower case m is used for molality, and you cannot calculate the volume of the solution unless you know some other data, e.g. density of the solution.

b) n = 2

c) V (in liters) = ?

2) Formula:

Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution:

M = n / V (in liters)

3) Solution:

a) Clear V from the formula: V (in liters) = M / n

b) Substitute: V (in liters) = 2 moles / 0.5M = 4 liters ← answer

I believe sam's response is correct.
When human is riding a moving target with constant speed over a period of time, we tend to have a visual acceleration perception due to our optical movement.
This make people such as Carrie believes that the carousel horses are accelerating while it actually stayed at constant pace.

SYNTHESIS OFCARBONATECTIONLABORATORY SIMULATIONLab Data- X99.00.10CollectedVolume sodium carbonate (mL)Molarity sodium carbonate

evablogger [386]

Answer:

$\begin{gathered} \text{Limiting Reagent = Sodium Carbonate} \\ \text{Percent Yield = 98\%} \end{gathered}$

Explanation:

The chemical reaction talks about the synthesis of calcium carbonate

It is from the reaction between sodium carbonate and calcium chloride

Let us write the equation of reaction as follows:

$Na_2CO_{3(aq)}+CaCl_{2(aq)}\text{ }\rightarrow2NaCl_{(s)\text{ }}+CaCO_{3(aq)}$

Firstly, we want to get the expected mass of calcium carbonate

This speaks about getting the theoretical yield based on the equation of reaction

From the data collected, 90 ml of 0.20 M (mol/L) of sodium carbonate gave calcium carbonate

We need to get the actual number of moles of sodium carbonate that reacted

We can get this by multiplying the volume by the molarity (kindly note that we have to convert the volume to Liters by dividing by 1000)

Thus, we have it as:

$\frac{90}{1000}\times\text{ 0.1 = 0.009 moles}$

Hence, we see that 0.009 moles of sodium carbonate reacted theoretically

Since 1 mole of sodium carbonate gave 1 mole calcium carbonate, it is expected that 0.009 mole of sodium carbonate will give 0.009mole of calcium carbonate

What we have to do now is to get the theoretical grams of calcium carbonate produced

That would be the product of the number of moles of calcium carbonate and its molar mass

The molar mass of calcium carbonate is 100 g/mol

The theoretical yield (expected mass) is thus:

$100\text{ g/ mol }\times\text{ 0.009mol = 0.9 g}$

Finally, we proceed to get the percentage yield which is calculated using the formula below:

$\text{Percent Yield = }\frac{Actual\text{ yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times\text{ 100 \%}$

The actual yield is the observed mass which is given as 0.88 g

The percent yield is thus:

$\frac{0.88}{0.9}\times\text{ 100 = }98\text{ \%}$

What is the polarity of black pepper

leva [86]

Answer:

Polarity in chemistry referred to physical properties of compounds related to solubility, melting and boiling properties.

Polarity of black pepper can be seen when black pepper is sprinkled on water. The balck pepper float on water and get displaced if touched.

It means black pepper is non-polar and have no difference in electronegativity between bonded atoms. Black pepper is so light in weight and non-polar, the surface tension of water keep it floating in the water.
