The  moles  of  potassium  that  you  would    need  to  prepare  1200 g  of  5% potassium   sulfate solution  is    1.538 moles

calculation
  calculate  the mass  potassium using  the below formula

%M/M =  mass  of the  solute(potassium)/mass of the  solvent (potassium  sulfate solution)

let  the  mass  of  potassium be represented by  Y

then  convert %  into fraction  = 5/100

5/100 =  Y/1200
cross  multiplication
100y =  6000
divide  both side by 100

Y=  60 g

moles of potassium =mass/molar  mass

= 60/39=1.538

1. An acetic acid solution that is 60.0% HC2H302 (by mass) contains
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

A solution of acetic acid that is 60.0% HC₂H₃O₂ (by mass) indicates that it contains 60.0 g of acetic acid and 100.0 g of water.

Explanation:

A percentage is a way of expressing an amount as a fraction of 100. The mass percentage corresponds to physical units of the solutions and they allow to establish more precisely the concentration of the solutions and express them in terms of percentages.

Mass percentage indicates the amount in grams of solute per 100 grams of solution.

So a solution of acetic acid that is 60.0% HC₂H₃O₂ (by mass) indicates that it contains 60.0 g of acetic acid and 100.0 g of water.

gladu [14]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • A pure substance that contains more than one atom is called a compound.

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

  • Compounds are formed by combination of atoms by a fixed ratio. They have their own characteristic features.
  • Pure substances are further broken down into elements and compounds. A compound can be destroyed by chemical means. It might be broken down into simpler compounds, into its elements or a combination of the two.

<u><em>Example </em></u>

  • H2SO4 which  is formed by combination of three different atoms like H, S and O.

Sodium azide decomposes rapidly to produce nitrogen gas.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

156 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

2 NaN₃(s) → 2 Na(s) + 3 N₂ (g)

We can find the moles of N₂  using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

1.50 atm × 60.0 L = n × (0.08206 atm.L/mol.K) × 305 K

n = 3.60 mol

The molar ratio of N₂ to NaN₃ is 3:2. The moles of NaN₃ are:

3.60 mol N₂ × (2 mol NaN₃ / 3 mol N₂) = 2.40 mol NaN₃

The molar mass of NaN₃ is 65.01 g/mol. The mass of NaN₃ is:

2.40 mol × 65.01 g/mol = 156 g
