Answer: 770 g water are needed to dissolve 27.8 g of ammonium nitrate NH_4NO_3 in order to prepare a 0.452 m solution

Explanation:

Molality : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present per kg of solvent

Formula used :

Molality=\frac{n\times 1000}{W_s}

where,

n= moles of solute

Moles of NH_4NO_3=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{27.8g}{80.0g/mol}=0.348moles  

W_s = weight of the solvent in g = ?

0.452=\frac{0.348\times 1000}{W_s}

W_s=770g

Thus 770 g water are needed to dissolve 27.8 g of ammonium nitrate NH_4NO_3 in order to prepare a 0.452 m solution

Sterling silver contains silver and copper metals. if a sterling silver chain contains 17.6g of silver and 2.40g of copper, what
Bogdan [553]

Answer:-  0.88

Solution:- Masses of silver and copper metals are given and we are asked to calculate the percentage of silver in the alloy.

mass percent of Ag = (\frac{mass of Ag}{mass of alloy})*100

Mass of Ag = 17.6 g

mass of Cu = 2.40 g

mass of alloy = 17.6 g + 2.40 g = 20.0 g

Let's plug in the values in the formula:

mass percentage of Ag = (\frac{17.6}{20.0})*100

mass percentage of Ag = 88%

So, the mass percentage of silver in sterling silver is 88% and in decimal form it is 0.88.

melisa1 [442]

Answer : The chemical symbol for the element that results from this process is, (Ar) for argon.

Explanation :

Electron capture : In this decay process, a parent nuclei absorbs an electron and gets converted into a neutron. Simply, a proton and an electron combines together to form a neutron. Mass number does not change in this process.

_Z^A\textrm{X}+_{-1}^0\textrm{e}\rightarrow _{Z-1}^A\textrm{Y}

The equation for the given reaction is,

_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}+_{-1}^0\textrm{e}\rightarrow _{18}^{40}\textrm{Ar}

Thus, the chemical symbol for the element that results from this process is, argon (Ar).

prisoha [69]
Pure substances are further broken down into elements and compounds. Mixture are physically combined structures that can be separated into their original components. A chemical substance is composed of one type of atom or molecule.

"acid is responsible for the odor in rancid butter. a solution of 0.25 m butyric acid has a ph of 2.71. what is the ka for"
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:- The Ka for the acid is 1.53*10^-^5 .

Solution:- In general, monoprotic acid could be represented by HA. The dissociation equation for the ionization of HA is written as:

HA(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq) + A^-(aq)

Now, we make the ice table for this equation as:

HA(aq)\rightarrow H^+(aq) + A^-(aq)

I 0.25 0 0

C -X +X +X

E (0.25 - X) X X

where, I stands for initial concentration, C stands for change in concentration and E stands for equilibrium concentration.

X is the change in concentration and from ice table it's same as the concentration of hydrogen ion that is calculated from given pH.

Ka = [H^+][A^-]\frac{1}{HA}

Where, Ka is the acid ionization constant. Let's plug in the values.

Ka = \frac{X^2}{0.25-X}

Let's calculate the value of X first using the equation:

pH = -log[H^+][/tex]

on taking antilog ob above equation we get:

[H^+]=10^-^p^H

[H^+]=10^-^2^.^7^1

[H^+] = 0.00195

So, X = 0.001195

Let's plug in this value of X in the equation:-

Ka=\frac{(0.00195)^2}{0.25-0.00195}

Ka=1.53*10^-^5

So, the value of Ka for butyric acid is 1.53*10^-^5 .
