Answer: The mass of arsenic found in the sample is 0.25 mg

Explanation:

ppm is the amount of solute (in milligrams) present in kilogram of a solvent. It is also known as parts-per million.

To calculate the ppm of oxygen in sea water, we use the equation:

$\text{ppm}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 10^6$

Both the masses are in grams.

We are given:

Concentration of arsenic = 5 ppm

Mass of sample = 50 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$5=\frac{\text{Mass of arsenic}}{50g}\times 10^6\\\\\text{Mass of arsenic}=\frac{5\times 50}{10^6}=0.00025g=0.25mg$

Conversion factor used: 1 g = 1000 mg

Hence, the mass of arsenic found in the sample is 0.25 mg

Gelneren [198K]

Answer: Ammonium, when heated with aqueous base, will give off NH3 (ammonia) gas, (and depending, water vapor). This will leave the Cr2O3(s). From then on,

it is just adding or subtraction of gases or water vapor. You probably heard “Loss of electrons is Oxidation”, “Gain of Electrons is reduction”. That should help.

Explanation: This isn’t an explanation but an interesting point; Acid-Base and RedOx reactions are useful to the most complex of any Chemistry. Get this down, and Organic Chemistry will be much easier.

3.65 gram of hcl is dissolved in 180 gram of water. Find the total number of molecules of hydrogen

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

$Molec_{\ H_{tot}}=1.206x10^{25}molec$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, taking into account that HCl has one molecule of hydrogen per mole of compound which weights 36.45 g/mol, we compute the number of molecules of hydrogen in hydrochloric acid by considering the given mass and the Avogadro's number:

$molec_{\ H}=3.65gHCl*\frac{1molHCl}{36.45gHCl} *\frac{1molH}{1molHCl}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molec_\ H}{1molH} =6.03x10^{22}molec$

Now, from the 180 g of water, we see two hydrogen molecules per molecule of water, thus, by also using the Avogadro's number we compute the molecules of hydrogen in water:

$molec_{\ H}=180gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18gH_2O} *\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molec_\ H}{1molH} =1.20x10^{25}molec$

Thus, the total number of molecules turns out:

$Molec_{\ H_{tot}}=6.03x10^{22}+1.20x10^{25}\\\\Molec_{\ H_{tot}}=1.206x10^{25}molec$

Regards.

Express each of the following answers in the IUPAC format. Do not include any capitals or spaces in your name. Separate multiple

lorasvet [3.4K]

The full question is shown in the image attached

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In naming an alkane, the first thing we do is to obtain the parent chain by counting the number of carbon atoms in the chain.

When we obtain that, then we identify the substituents and number them in such a way that they have the lowest numbers. The compounds shown have the following names according to the order in which the structures appear in the image attached;

1. 2-methyl propane

2. 2,4-dimethyl heptane

3. 2,2,3,3-tetramethyl butane

4. 5-ethyl-2,4-dimethyl octane

How long would it take for 1.50 mol of water at 100.0 âc to be converted completely into steam if heat were added at a constant

defon

To convert boiling water to steam, that would involve heat of vaporization. The heat of vaporization for water at atmospheric conditions is: ΔHvap = 2260 J/g.

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Q = mΔHvap = (1.50 mol water)(18 g/mol)(2260 J/g) = 61,020 J

Time = Q/Rate = (61,020 J)(1 s/20 J) = 3051 seconds

In order to express the answer in three significant units, let's convert that to minutes.
Time = 3051 s * 1min/30 s = 102 min
