What amounts do you compare when measuring concentration

Chemistry
1 answer:
ozzi3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  • <em>When measuring concentration you compare </em><u>the amount of solute to the amount of solvent or solution.</u>

Explanation:

The <em>concentration</em> is a measure of how much solute is present in certain amount of solvent or solution. There are many quantitative expressions for the concentration. Some of those expressions are: percentage, molarity, molality, molar fraction, among others.

This table shows the expressions for some concentration measures, showing the amounts compared.

<u>Concentration</u>                         <u>amounts compared in form of ratio</u>

Percentage, mass/mass         (mass of solute / mass of solution) × 100  

Percentage, vol./vol.                (vol. of solue / vol. of solution) × 100

Molarity                                     (moles of solute / liters of solution)

Molality                                      (moles of solute / Kg of solvent)

1- Which process are fast in carbon cycle?
g100num [7]

Answer:

During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide and sunlight to create fuel—glucose and other sugars—for building plant structures. This process forms the foundation of the fast (biological) carbon cycle.

The Slow Carbon Cycle. ... Atmospheric carbon combines with water to form a weak acid—carbonic acid—that falls to the surface in rain. The acid dissolves rocks—a process called chemical weathering—and releases calcium, magnesium, potassium, or sodium ions.

A radioactive isotope of potassium (k) has a half-life of 20 minutes. if a 43 gram sample of this isotope is allowed to decay fo
Ksenya-84 [330]

Hello!

The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.

We have the following data:

mo (initial mass) = 43 g

m (final mass after time T) = ? (in g)

x (number of periods elapsed) = ?

P (Half-life) = 20 minutes

T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 80 minutes

Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:

T = x*P

80 = x*20

80 = 20\:x

20\:x = 80

x = \dfrac{80}{20}

\boxed{x = 4}

Now, let's find the final mass (m) of this isotope after the elapsed time, let's see:

m =  \dfrac{m_o}{2^x}

m =  \dfrac{43}{2^{4}}

m = \dfrac{43}{16}

\boxed{\boxed{m = 2.6875\:g}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)

Why do metals bend and not break?
Nookie1986 [14]
Metals are malleable - they can be bent and shaped. This is because they consist of layers of atoms. These layers can slide over one another when the metal is bent, hammered or pressed.
