7 0

1%

Explanation:

The crust is the thinnest layer of the earth accounting for only 1% total volume of the planets.

Compositionally, the earth is divided into three layers which are the crust, mantle and the core.

  • The crust is the outermost layer of the earth. It rich in silicate minerals. The rocks are classified into igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
  • The mantle takes up about 84% of the total volume of the earth. It is located in between the crust and the core. It is predominantly made up of ferro-magnesian silicate minerals.
  • The cores accounts for slightly 15% of the volume of the earth. It is the center of our geoid shaped earth. It is rich in iron and nickel metals.

What is the molality of sodium chloride in solution that is 13.0% by mass sodium chloride and that has a density of 1.10 g/ml?
8090 [49]
Answer is: molality od sodium chloride is 2,55 mol/kg.
V(solution) = 100 ml.
m(solution) = d(solution) · V(solution).
m(solution) = 1,10 g/ml · 100 ml.
m(solution) = 110 g.
ω(NaCl) = 13,0% = 0,13.
m(NaCl) = ω(NaCl) · m(solution).
m(NaCl) = 0,13 · 110 g.
m(NaCl) = 14,3 g.
n(NaCl) = m(NaCl) ÷ M(NaCl).
n(NaCl) = 14,3 g ÷ 58,5 g/mol.
n(NaCl) = 0,244 mol.
m(H₂O) = 110 g - 14,3 g.
m(H₂O) = 95,7 g = 0,0957 kg.
b(NaCl) = n(NaCl) ÷ m(H₂O).
b(NaCl) = 0,244 mol ÷ 0,0957 kg.
b(NaCl) = 2,55 mol/kg.
