K ---> 38.7 g / 39.1 g/mol = 0.99
N ---> 13.9 g / 14.0 g/mol = 0.99
O ---> 47.4 g / 16.0 g/mol = 2.96

Divide by smallest:

K ---> 0.99 / 0.99 = 1
N ---> 0.99 / 0.99 = 1
O ---> 2.96 / 0.99 = 3

Answer:

solution:-a homogenous mixture of two or more substances in relative amounts that can be varied continuously up to what is called the limit of solubility.

solute:-is a substance, usually a solid, that is dissolved in a solution, which is usually a liquid.

solvent:-substance, ordinarily a liquid, in which other materials dissolve to form a solution.

polar molecule:-is a molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative.

Nonpolar molecules occur when electrons are shared equal between atoms of a diatomic molecule or when polar bonds in a larger molecule cancel each other out.

concentration refers to the amount of a substance in a defined space.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

0.295 L

Explanation:

It seems your question lacks the final concentration value. But an internet search tells me this might be the complete question:

" A chemist must dilute 47.2 mL of 150. mM aqueous sodium nitrate solution until the concentration falls to 24.0 mM. He'll do this by adding distilled water to the solution until it reaches a certain final volume. Calculate this final volume, in liters. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. "

Keep in mind that if your value is different, the answer will be different as well. However the methodology will remain the same.

To solve this problem we can<u> use the formula</u> C₁V₁=C₂V₂

Where the subscript 1 refers to the concentrated solution and the subscript 2 to the diluted one.

  • 47.2 mL * 150 mM = 24.0 mM * V₂
  • V₂ = 295 mL

And <u>converting into L </u>becomes:

  • 295 mL * \frac{1 L}{1000mL} = 0.295 L

In laboratory experiment, a NOVDEC Student was
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

i. Molar mass of glucose = 180 g/mol

ii. Amount of glucose = 0.5 mole

Explanation:

<em>The volume of the glucose solution to be prepared</em> = 500 cm^3

<em>Molarity of the glucose solution to be prepared</em> = 1 M

i. Molar mass of glucose (C_1_2H_6O_6) = (6 × 12) + (12 × 1) + (6 × 16) = 180 g/mol

ii.<em> mole = molarity x volume</em>. Hence;

amount (in moles) of the glucose solution to be prepared

                 = 1 x 500/1000 = 0.5 mole
