A sulfuric acid solution containing 571.3 g of h2so4 per liter of aqueous solution has a density of 1.329 g/cm3. Part a calculat
loris [4]

Mass percentage of a solution is the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of solute H2SO4 = 571.3 g

Volume of the solution = 1 lit = 1000 ml

Density of solution = 1.329 g/cm3 = 1.329 g/ml

Calculations:

Mass of the given volume of solution = 1.329 g * 1000 ml/1 ml = 1329 g

Therefore we have:

571.3 g of H2SO4 in 1329 g of the solution

Hence, the amount of H2SO4 in 100 g of solution= 571.3 *100/1329 = 42.987

Mass percentage of H2SO4 (%w/w) is 42.99 %

In an isolated system, mass can neither be<br> created or destroyed.<br> ube<br> FALSE<br> TRUE
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

Hope it helps

Part 1: Name the type of chemical reaction that occurs when calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) reacts with nitric acid (HNO3).
liberstina [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> Neutralization reaction

<u>For 2: </u>Zinc is more reactive than lead and less reactive than calcium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>For (1):</u>

When a base reacts with an acid to form a salt and water molecule, it is known as a neutralization reaction. The general equation follows:

HX+BOH\rightarrow BX+H_2O

The chemical equation for the reaction of calcium hydroxide and nitric acid follows:

Ca(OH)_2(aq)+2HNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)+2H_2O(l)

  • <u>For (2):</u>

A single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its salt solution. The general chemical equation follows:

A+BX\rightarrow AX+B

where,

Metal A is more reactive than metal B

The reactivity of metals is judged by the reactivity series where a metal lying above in the series is more reactive than the metal lying below it.

From the reactivity series below,

Zinc lies above in the series than lead thus is more reactive and will easily replace lead from its aqueous solution.

While zinc lies below in the series than calcium thus is less reactive and will not easily replace calcium from its aqueous solution.

Zn(s)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow Zn(NO_3)_2(aq)+Pb(s)

Zn(s)+CaCl_2(aq)\rightarrow \text{No reaction}

2. A solvent used in cleaning is found to contain only the elements carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine. When a
KIM [24]

mass of C = 0.238 g

mass of H =0.00989 g

mass of Cl = 1.05 g

Explanation:

Determine the masses of carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine in the original sample of the solvent.

First we need to calculate the molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O)

molar mass of CO₂ = molar mass of C × 1 + molar mass of O × 2

molar mass of CO₂ = 12 × 1 + 16 × 2 = 44 g/mole

molar mass of H₂O = molar mass of H × 2 + molar mass of O × 1

molar mass of H₂O = 1 × 2 + 16 × 1 = 18 g/mole

Now, to find the mass of carbon and hydrogen in the original sample of solvent, we devise the following reasoning:

if              44 g of CO₂ contains 12 g of C

then   0.872 g of CO₂ contains X g of C

X = (0.872 × 12) / 44 = 0.238 g of C

if               18 g of H₂O contains 2 g of H

then   0.089 g of H₂O contains Y g of H

Y = (0.089 × 2) / 18 = 0.00989 g of H

And now, we can find the mass of chlorine:

mass of sample = mass of C + mass of H + mass of Cl

mass of Cl = mass of sample - mass of C - mass of H

mass of Cl = 1.30 - 0.238 - 0.00989

mass of Cl = 1.05 g
