Answer:

The percentage of ethylene glycol that is fatal is 0.15 %

Explanation:

If the toxic quantity of ethylene glycol in a 1kg or 1000 g body weight is 1.5 g then the percentage of ethylene glycol that is fatal is

$\frac{1.5}{1000}$ ˣ 100 = 0.15%

Hence, the percentage of ethylene glycol that is toxic for any body weight is 0.15%. This percentage is very important in various aspects of science including drug discovery and food production/processing

Cobalt III hydroxide and nitric acid react according to the following balanced equation:

kati45 [8]

The mass of cobalt (III) needed is
m = 5.2 L (0.42 mol/L) ( 93 g/mol)
m = 97.65 g

The volume of nitric acid needed is
V = 5.2 L (0.42 mol/L) (3 mol / 1 mol) (1000 mL/1.6 mol)
V = 1968.75 mL

The moles of water produced is
n = 5.2 L (0.42 mol/L) (3 mol / 1 mol)
n = 3.15 moles

Calculate the number of moles of KOH in 6.70 mL of a 0.480 M KOH solution. (Enter your answer in scientific notation.)

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

3.2×10^-3 mol

Explanation:

The equation for molarity is M= n/L. Where "M" is Molarity, "n" is the number of moles of solute, and "L" is the total liters in solution.

The question gives you the volume in mL, so to convert "mL" to "L" you need to divide by 1000. (6.70mL/ 1000L)= 0.0067L.

Now you can plug the numbers into the equation. 0.480M= n/ 0.0067L), multiply (0.480M×0.0067L)= 0.003216 mol. The scientific notation is 3.2×10^-3, 10^-3 because you move the decimal back three times and 3.2 because there are 2 sig figs.
