Answer:

Explanation:

a) for 1.000 g X: 0.1621 g Y

ratio of mass of element Y = 2.100g : 0.1621g

= 1 : 0.07

b) 1.000 g X: 0.7391 g Y

ratio of mass of element Y = 2.100g : 0.7391g

= 1: 0.35 , = 20:7

c) 1.000 g X: 0.2579 g Y

ratio of mass of element Y = 2.100g : 0.2579g

= 1 : 0.12

d) 1.000 g X: 0.2376 g Y

ratio of mass of element Y = 2.100g : 0.2376g

= 1: 0.11

e) 1.000 g X: 0.2733 g Y

ratio of mass of element Y = 2.100g : 0.2733g

= 1 : 0.13

From the values obtained , the closest that is in compliance with the law f multiple proportions is option B

Answer:

a. 1.000 g X: 0.1621 g Y.

Explanation:

The law of multiple proportions states that If two elements A and B form more than one compound, then the ratios of the masses of the second element, B which combine with a fixed mass of the first element, A will always be ratios of small whole numbers.

Comparing Compound A; 1.000 g of X : 2.100 with the options given,

a. 0.1621 g of Y : 1.000 g of X

= 2.100 : 0.1621

= 12.96 : 1

= 13 : 1.

b. 0.7391 g of Y : 1.000 g of X

ratio = 2.100 : 0.7391

= 2.84 : 1.

c. 0.2579 of Y : 1.000 g of X

= 2.100 : 0.2579

= 8.143 : 1

d. 0.2376 g of Y : 1000 g of X

= 2.100 : 0.2376

= 8.384 : 1

e. 0.2733 g of Y : 1000 g of X

= 2.100 : 0.2733

= 7.684 : 1

2.5 moles of sodium chloride is dissolved to make 0.050 liters of solution
Hitman42 [59]

The answer is:

the molarity = 50 moles/liters

The explanation:

when the molarity is = the number of moles / volume per liters.

and when the number of moles =2.5 moles

and the volume per liters = 0.05 L

so by substitution:

the molarity = 2.5moles/0.05L

                    = 50 moles /L
