A scientist compares two samples of white powder. one powder was present at the beginning of an experiment. the other powder was

present at the end. she wants to determine whether a chemical reaction has occurred. she finds that neither sample bubbles or dissolves in water. she measures the mass and volume of the solids. sample one has a volume of 45 cm3 and a mass of 0.5
g. sample two has a volume of 65 cm3 and a mass of 1.3
g. what should the scientist conclude?

Answer. Chemical reaction had occurred and both the powders are different substances.

Explanation:

As density is an intensive property of the substance.Which means that  different substance have different densities.

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Density of powder 1, d_1=\frac{0.5g}{45cm^3}=0.11g/cm^3

Density of powder 2, d_2=\frac{1.3g}{65cm^3}=0.02g/cm^3

On comparing both the densities of the powders we can say that both the substances are different. So we can conclude that the chemical reaction had occurred.

I think that the scientist should conclude that there was no chemical reaction. There were no clear evidences that a reaction had occurred. The variation in the volume and the mass was not an indication whether a reaction happened. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

In which of the titrations described below will the first (or only) equivalence point be reached upon the addition of 25.0 mL of
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

1, 3, and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We must calculate the volume of NaOH needed for each titration.

<em>1) HCl </em>

HCl + NaOH ⟶ NaCl + H₂O

n(HCl)       = 25.0 mL × (0.100 mmol/1mL) = 2.50 mmol

n(NaOH)  = 2.50 mmol HCl × (1 mmol NaOH/1 mmol HCl

= 2.50 mmol NaOH

V(NaOH) = 2.50 mmol × (1 mL/0.100 mmol) = 25.0 mL

<em>2) H₂C₂O₄ </em>

H₂C₂O₄ + NaOH ⟶ NaHC₂O₄

n(H₂C₂O₄) = 50.0 mL × (0.100 mmol/1mL) = 5.00 mmol

n(NaOH)    = 5.00 mmol H₂C₂O₄ × (1 mmol NaOH/1 mmol H₂C₂O₄)

= 5.00 mmol NaOH

V(NaOH)   = 5.00 mmol × (1 mL/0.100 mmol) = 50.0 mL

<em>3) HC₂H₃O₂ </em>

HC₂H₃O₂ + NaOH ⟶ NaC₂H₃O₂ + H₂O

n(HC₂H₃O₂) = 25.0 mL × (0.100 mmol/1mL) = 2.50 mmol

n(NaOH) = 2.50 mmol HCl × (1 mmol NaOH/1 mmol HCl)

= 2.50 mmol NaOH

V(NaOH) = 2.50 mmol × (1 mL/0.100 mmol) = 25.0 mL

<em>4) HBr </em>

HBr + NaOH ⟶ NaBr + H₂O

n(HBr) = 25.0 mL × (0.100 mmol/1mL) =2.50 mmol

n(NaOH) = 2.50 mmol HCl × (1 mmol NaOH/1 mmol HCl)

= 2.50 mmol NaOH

V(NaOH) = 2.50 mmol × (1 mL/0.100 mmol) = 25.0 mL

Titrations 1, 3, and 4 reach the first or only equivalence point  at 25.0 mL NaOH.

At the Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide gas in water is . Calculate the mass in grams of gas that can be dissolved in of
Dvinal [7]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

At 25°C Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide gas in water is 0.031 M/atm . Calculate the mass in grams of gas that can be dissolved in 425. mL of water at 25°C and at a partial pressure of 2.92 atm. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of carbon dioxide that can be dissolved is 1.7 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

C_{CO_2}=K_H\times p_{CO_2}

where,

K_H = Henry's constant = 0.031M/atm

C_{CO_2} = molar solubility of carbon dioxide gas

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas = 2.92 atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

C_{CO_2}=0.031M/atm\times 2.92 atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=0.0905M

To calculate the mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

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

Given mass of carbon dioxide = ? g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molarity of solution = 0.0905mol/L

Volume of solution = 425 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0905mol/L=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}\times 1000}{44g/mol\times 425}\\\\\text{Mass of solute}=\frac{44\times 425\times 0.0905}{1000}=1.7g

Hence, the mass of carbon dioxide that can be dissolved is 1.7 grams
