Answer:

  • <em>The maximum amount of copper allowed in 100 g of water is </em><u><em>0.00013 g</em></u>

Explanation:

To find the maximum amount of copper (in grams) allowed in 100 g of water use the maximum amount ratio (1.3 mg / kg)  and set a proportion with the unknown amount of copper (x) and the amount of water (100 g):

First, convert 100 g of water to kg: 100 g × 1 kg / 1000 g = 0.1 kg.

Now, set the proportion:

  • 1.3 mg Cu / 1 Kg H₂O = x / 0.1 kg H₂O

Solve for x:

  • x = 0.1 kg H₂O × 1.3 mg Cu / 1 kg H₂O = 0.13 mg Cu

Convert mg to grams:

  • 0.13 mg × 1 g / 1,000 mg = 0.00013 g

Answer: 0.00013 g of copper.

Which postmortem parameter reaches a maximum at 12 hours and is gone within 36 to 48 hours?1.rigor mortis2.cloudiness of the eye
Olenka [21]
The cloudiness of the eyes increases to a maximum and then decreases. This is because initially, after death, all the muscles relax, dilating the pupil. Some time later, rigor mortis sets in, contracting the pupil. Thus, the cloudiness fades.

The freezing point of a nonelectrolyte solution containing 30.0 g of a solute dissolved in 250.0 g of water is observed to be -2
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Molar mass of solute is 89.28 g/m

Explanation:

Colligative property of freezing point depression to solve this:

ΔT = Kf . m . i

i = number of particles, dissolved in solution. In this case, it is a nonelectrolyte, so i = 1.

m = molalilty (mol of solute/1kg of solvent

ΔT = T° freeze pure solvent - T° freeze solution

0°C - (-2.50°C) = 1.86 °C/m . m

2.50°C / 1.86 m/°C = m

1.34 mol solute/kg solvent = m

This means, that in 1000 g of solvent, we have 1.34 moles but we have 250 g of solvent, so let's make a rule of three.

1000 g ____ 1.34 moles

250 g _____(2.50 . 1.34) / 1000 = 0.336 moles

To find the molar mass, we divide mass / moles

30 g/ 0.336 moles = 89.28 g/m
