What is the molarity of a 250ml KCl solution made by diluting 175mL of a 3.00 M solution?
Crank

Answer:

2.1 M

Explanation:

The dilution equation is M_{s} V_{s}  = M_{d} V_{d}.

M_{s} = the molarity of the sock solution

V_{s} = the volume of the sock solution

M_{d} = the molarity of the diluted solution

V_{d} = the volume of the diluted solution

The stock solution would be what is doing the diluting, so "175 mL of a 3.00 M solution". So M_{s} = 3.00 M. Then: Converting 175 mL to liters: 175 mL * \frac{1 L}{1000mL} = 0.175 L (This is V_{s})

And converting 250 mL KCl to liters: 250 mL * \frac{1 L}{1000mL} = 0.250 L (This will be V_{d})

Then, we plug in our given into the dilution equation, resulting in:

3.00 M * 0.175 L = M_{d} * 0.250 L (divide both sides by 0.250 L, in order to get M_{d} by itself)

\frac{3.00 M * 0.175 L}{0.250 L} = M_{d}

M_{d} = 2.1 M

So, the molarity of 250 mL KCl made by diluting 175 mL of a 3.0 M solution would be 2.1 M (mol/L).

Hopefully this helped you understand the topic a little bit better. I just finished molarity and dilutions in Chemistry last week. Good luck!

Which material property is most directly related to the x-axis value at the x-intercept of the interatomic force versus distance
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mechanical properties of a material affect how it behaves as it is loaded. The elastic modulus of the material affects how much it deflects under a load, and the strength of the material determines the stresses that it can withstand before it fails

The metal which is actually oxidized/reduced in a lithium ion battery is: a. Cobalt b. Lithium c. Manganese d. Zinc
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

b. Lithium

Explanation:

<u>Lithium-ion batteries (LIB) is a rechargeable battery</u>. It was first proposed by M stanley  Whittingham in 1970s. These kind of batteries are commonly used in electrical vehicles and portable electronics. It also have military , naval and aerospace applications.

<u> In LIB, the lithium ions move from the negatively charged electrode to the positively charged electrode during the discharge process and move in the reverse direction when the during the charging process.</u> The battery uses an intercalated lithium compound is used to form anode and graphite is used to form cathode.

<u>Thus, Lithium is oxidized/reduced in a lithium ion battery.</u>
