<span>Mass percentage is one way of representing the concentration of an element in a compound or a component in a mixture. Mass percentage is calculated as the mass of a component divided by the total mass of the mixture. We calculate as follows:

Percent O2 = 100 - 35 = 65%
Mass of oxygen = 5.5 x 0.65 = 3.575 g O2</span>

The osmotic pressure of a saturated solution of strontium sulfate at 25 ∘C∘C is 21 torrtorr. Part A What is the solubility produ
USPshnik [31]

Answer

solubility product = 3.18x 10^-7

Explanation:

We were given the pressure in torr then we need to convert to atm for consistency, ten we have

21torr/760= 0.0276315789 atm

21 Torr = .0276315789 atm

P = i M S T

M = P / iRT

Where p is osmotic pressure

T= temperature= 25C+ 273= 298K

for XY vanthoff factor i = 2

S = 0.0821 L-atm / mol K

M = .0276315789 atm / (2)(0.0821 L atm / K mole)(298 K)

M = 0.000564698046 mol/liters

solubility= 0.000564698046 mol/liters

Ksp = [X+][Y-]

Ksp = X^2

Ksp = [Sr^+2] * [SO4^-2]

Ksp = X^2

Ksp = (0.000564698046)^2

Ksp = 3.18883883 × 10-7

Ksp = 3.18x 10^-7

solubility product = 3.18x 10^-7

Therefore, the solubility product of this salt at 25 ∘C∘C is 3.18x 10^-7

Air containing 0.04% carbon dioxide is pumped into a room whose volume is 6000 ft3. The air is pumped in at a rate of 2000 ft3/m
koban [17]

Here is the full question:

Air containing 0.04% carbon dioxide is pumped into a room whose volume is 6000 ft3. The air is pumped in at a rate of 2000 ft3/min, and the circulated air is then pumped out at the same rate. If there is an initial concentration of 0.2% carbon dioxide, determine the subsequent amount in the room at any time.

What is the concentration at 10 minutes? (Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

0.046 %

Explanation:

The rate-in;

R_{in} = \frac{0.04}{100}*2000

R_{in} = 0.8

The rate-out

R_{out} = \frac{A}{6000}*2000

R_{out} = \frac{A}{3}

We can say that:

\frac{dA}{dt}= 0.8-\frac{A}{3}

where;

A(0)= 0.2% × 6000

A(0)= 0.002 × 6000

A(0)= 12

\frac{dA}{dt} +\frac{A}{3} =0.8

Integration of the above linear equation =

e^{\int\limits \frac {1}{3}dt } = e^{\frac{1}{3}t

so we have:

e^{\frac{1}{3}t}\frac{dA}{dt}} +\frac{1}{3}e^{\frac{1}{3}t}A = 0.8e^{\frac{1}{3}t

\frac{d}{dt}[e^{\frac{1}{3}t}A] = 0.8e^{\frac{1}{3}t

Ae^{\frac{1}{3}t} =2.4e\frac{1}{3}t +C

∴ A(t) = 2.4 +Ce^{-\frac{1}{3}t

Since A(0) = 12

Then;

12 =2.4 + Ce^{-\frac{1}{3}}(0)

C= 12-2.4

C =9.6

Hence;

A(t) = 2.4 +9.6e^{-\frac{t}{3}}

A(0) = 2.4 +9.6e^{-\frac{10}{3}}

A(t) = 2.74

∴ the concentration at 10 minutes is ;

=  \frac{2.74}{6000}*100%

= 0.0456667 %

= 0.046% to three decimal places

Which statement is true in comparison to a weak acid, a strong acid
Allushta [10]

Answer: Strong acid vs weak acid

Strong acids and strong bases refer to species that completely dissociate to form ions in solution.

Explanation: By contrast, weak acids and bases ionize only partially, and the ionization reaction is reversible. Thus, weak acid and base solutions contain multiple charged and uncharged species in dynamic equilibrium.
