Answer:

Mass of solution=100g

mass of salt=20g

so; mass of solute=80g

percentage composition =(mass of salt/total

mass) ×100

=  \frac{20}{100}  \times 100 \\  = 20\%

glad to help you

hope it helps

The percent composition by mass of a 100g salt solution which contains 20g salt is \bold{16.6\%}

<u>Solution:</u>  

Percent composition is calculated as, weight of the solute divided by amount of solute added to 100 g is solution multiplied by 100.

\Rightarrow \frac{\text {weight of solute}(g)}{\text {weight of solute}(g)+\text {weight of solution(g)}} \times 100

Given, 100 g of salt solution with 20 g of salt  

Weight of the solute and solvent is 20 + 100 g = 120 g  

percent composition=\frac{20}{120} \times 100=\frac{200}{12}=16.6

\therefore \text { percent composition } =16.6 \%

Explain three factors that can affect the size of a line in a spectrum.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:For atoms and molecules, the width of spectral lines is governed mainly by the broadening of the energy levels of the atoms or molecules during interactions with surrounding particles and by the broadening of the spectral lines as a result of the Doppler effect.

This question deals with waste disposal in the Solutions and Spectroscopy experiment. What should be done to waste solutions con
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

b. It should be dumped in a beaker labeled "waste copper" on one's bench during the experiment.

d. It should be disposed of in the bottle for waste copper ion when work is completed.

Explanation:

Solutions containing copper ion should never be disposed of by dumping them in a sink or in common trash cans, because this will cause pollution in rivers, lakes and seas, being a contaminating agent to both human beings and animals. They should be placed in appropriate compatible containers that can be hermetically sealed. The sealed containers must be labeled with the name and class of hazardous substance they contain and the date they were generated.

It never should be returned to the bottle containing the solution, since it can contaminate the solution of the bottle.

In the Solutions and Spectroscopy experiments there is always wastes.
