For which of the following activities might you want to hire a chemist?
Answer: D. testing a rock sample for gold content
Which of the following procedures involves a physical change in one of the substances?
Answer: C. separating a salt solution by evaporating the water
Answer:
A. percentage mass of iron = 5.17%
percentage mass of sand = 8.62%
percentage mass of water = 86.205%
B. (Iron + sand + water) -------> ( iron + sand) ------> sand
C. The step of separation of iron and sand
Explanation:
A. Percentage mass of the mixtures:
Total mass of mixture = (15.0 + 25.0 + 250.0) g =290.0 g
percentage mass of iron = 15/290 * 100% = 5.17%
percentage mass of sand = 25/290 * 100% = 8.62%
percentage mass of water = 250/290 * 100% = 86.205%
B. Flow chart of separation procedure
(Iron + sand + water) -------> separation by filtration using filter paper and funnel to remove water --------> ( iron + sand) -----------> separation using magnet to remove iron ------> sand
C. The step of separation of iron and sand by magnetization of iron will have the highest amount of error because during the process, some iron particles may not readily be attracted to the magnet as they may have become interlaced in-between sand grains. Also, some sand particle may also be attracted to the magnet as they are are borne on iron particles.

Answer:
The molarity (M) of the following solutions are :
A. M = 0.88 M
B. M = 0.76 M
Explanation:
A. Molarity (M) of 19.2 g of Al(OH)3 dissolved in water to make 280 mL of solution.
Molar mass of Al(OH)3 = Mass of Al + 3(mass of O + mass of H)
= 27 + 3(16 + 1)
= 27 + 3(17) = 27 + 51
= 78 g/mole
= 78 g/mole
Given mass= 19.2 g/mole


Moles = 0.246

Volume = 280 mL = 0.280 L

Molarity = 0.879 M
Molarity = 0.88 M
B .The molarity (M) of a 2.6 L solution made with 235.9 g of KBr
Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mole
Given mass = 235.9 g

Moles = 1.98
Volume = 2.6 L


Molarity = 0.762 M
Molarity = 0.76 M
