Given the balanced equation:

Vikki [24]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a more reactive element or atom replaces a less reactive atom then this type of reaction is known as single displacement reaction.

In the given reaction, potassium iodide reacts with fluorine and results in the formation of potassium fluoride and iodine.

Here, fluorine being more reactive displaces iodine from potassium iodide.

Therefore, it is a single replacement or displacement reaction.

The density of a 3.37M MgCl2 (FW = 95.21) is 1.25 g/mL. Calulate the molality, mass/mass percent, and mass/volume percent. So fa

Dafna1 [17]

Answer : The molality, mass/mass percent, and mass/volume percent are, 0.0381 mole/Kg, 25.67 % and 32.086 % respectively.

Solution : Given,

Density of solution = 1.25 g/ml

Molar mass of $MgCl_2$ (solute) = 95.21 g/mole

3.37 M magnesium chloride means that 3.37 gram of magnesium chloride is present in 1 liter of solution.

The volume of solution = 1 L = 1000 ml

Mass of $MgCl_2$ (solute) = 3.37 g

First we have to calculate the mass of solute.

$\text{Mass of }MgCl_2=\text{Moles of }MgCl_2\times \text{Molar mass of }MgCl_2$

$\text{Mass of }MgCl_2=3.37mole\times 95.21g/mole=320.86g$

Now we have to calculate the mass of solution.

$\text{Mass of solution}=\text{Density of solution}\times \text{Volume of solution}=1.25g/ml\times 1000ml=1250g$

Mass of solvent = Mass of solution - Mass of solute = 1250 - 320.86 = 929.14 g

Now we have to calculate the molality of the solution.

$Molality=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent}}=\frac{3.37g\times 1000}{95.21g/mole\times 929.14g}=0.0381mole/Kg$

The molality of the solution is, 0.0381 mole/Kg.

Now we have to calculate the mass/mass percent.

$\text{Mass by mass percent}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100=\frac{320.86}{1250}\times 100=25.67\%$

The mass/mass percent is, 25.67 %

Now we have to calculate the mass/volume percent.

$\text{Mass by volume percent}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution}}\times 100=\frac{320.86}{1000}\times 100=32.086\%$

The mass/volume percent is, 32.086 %

Therefore, the molality, mass/mass percent, and mass/volume percent are, 0.0381 mole/Kg, 25.67 % and 32.086 % respectively.
