Answer:

to keep the surfer from slipping off the board

Explanation:

Surfboard wax (also known as surfwax) is a formulation of natural and/or synthetic wax for application to the deck of a surfboard, bodyboard, or skimboard, to keep the surfer from slipping off the board when paddling out or riding a wave. It is also used to increase grip on the paddle of a surf kayak or dragon boat.

If is found that 24.68 mL of .1165 M NaOH is needed to titrate .2931 g of an unknown acid to the phenolphthalein end point. Calc
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: The equivalent mass of the acid is 83.16 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Moles of solute}={\text{Molarity of the solution}}\times{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}  

Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.1165 M

Volume of NaOH solution = 24.68 mL = 0.02468 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of} NaOH={0.1165M}\times{0.02468L}=2.875\times 10^{-3}moles=2.875\times 10^{-3}geq    

( as acidity of NaOH is 1)

For end point:  gram equivalents of acid =  gram equivalents of base = 2.875\times 10^{-3}

Mass of acid=gram equivalents\times {\text {Equivalent mass}}

0.2391=2.875\times 10^{-3}\times {\text {Equivalent mass}}

{\text {Equivalent mass}}=83.16g

Thus equivalent mass of the acid is 83.16 grams

Calculate the number of carbon atoms contained in 5.6 g of C2H4
miss Akunina [59]

Molecular mass of C₂H₄ is,

M = 2×12 + 4×1 g/mol

M = 28 g/mol

Moles of C₂H₄ in 5.6 g of C₂H₄ :

n = 5.6/28 mol

n = 0.2 mol

Now, 1 mol of C₂H₄ contains 2 moles of carbon.

So, number of moles of carbon are :

n = 0.4 mol

We know, 1 mol of any atom contains 6.022 × 10²³ atoms.

So, number of carbon atoms are :

N = 0.4 \times 6.022\times 10^{23} \\\\N = 2.409 \times 10^{23}

Hence, this is the required solution.
