Answer:

The sample is fool's gold

Explanation:

Density is defined as the ratio between mass in grams and volume in mililiters.

A sample of pure gold has a density of 19.3g/mL.

Using Archimedes' principle, the volume of the sample is:

52.2mL - 47.5mL = 4.7mL

As the mass of the sample is 23.5g, the density is:

23.5g / 4.7mL = 5g/mL

The denisty of the sample is very different to density of pure gold, that means:

<em>the sample is fool's gold</em>

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 122g of MgSO4 n 3.5L of solution?​
Semmy [17]

Answer:

0.29mol/L or 0.29moldm⁻³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of MgSO₄ = 122g

Volume of solution = 3.5L

Molarity is simply the concentration of substances in a solution.

Molarity = number of moles/ Volume

>>>>To calculate the Molarity of MgSO₄ we find the number of moles using the mass of MgSO₄ given.

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of MgSO₄:

Atomic masses: Mg = 24g

S = 32g

O = 16g

Molar mass of MgSO₄ = [24 + 32 + (16x4)]g/mol

= (24 + 32 + 64)g/mol

= 120g/mol

Number of moles = 122/120 = 1.02mol

>>>> From the given number of moles we can evaluate the Molarity using this equation:

Molarity = number of moles/ Volume

Molarity of MgSO₄ = 1.02mol/3.5L

= 0.29mol/L

IL = 1dm³

The Molarity of MgSO₄ = 0.29moldm⁻³

Q: A 25.5 mL aliquot of HCl (aq) of unknown concentration was titrated with 0.113 M NaOH (aq). It took 51.2 mL of the base to re
blondinia [14]
M ( HCl ) = ?

V ( HCl ) = 25.5 mL in liters : 25.5 / 1000 => 0.0255 L

M ( NaOH ) = 0.113 M

V ( NaOH ) = 51.2 mL / 1000 => 0.0512 L

number of moles NaOH:

n = M x V

n = 0.113 x <span> 0.0512 => 0.0057856 moles of NaOH

mole ratio:

</span><span>HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O
</span><span>
1 mole HCl -------------- 1 mole NaOH
( moles HCl ) ----------- </span><span> 0.0057856 moles NaOH
</span>
(moles HCl ) = <span> 0.0057856 x 1 / 1
</span>
= <span> 0.0057856 moles of HCl
</span>
M ( HCl ) = n / V

M =  0.0057856 / <span>0.0255
</span>
= 0.227 M

Answer A

hope this helps!
