What is the molarity of a solution which contains 0.80 mol of HCl in 250mL of<br> solution?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

3.2M HCl Solution

Explanation:

Molarity = moles of solute / volume of solution expressed in liters

moles of solute = 0.80 moles HCl

volume of solution = 250 ml = 0.250 Liter

Molarity (M) = 0.80 moles HCl / 0.250 Liters = 3.2M HCl Solution

Why do we sometimes use roman numerals in naming ionic compounds?
Blababa [14]
Roman numerals are used in naming ionic compounds when the metal cation forms more than one ion. The metals that form more than one ion are the transition metals, although not all of them do this.

A gas at STP occupies 22.4 L if the temperature is changed to 260 K and the pressures changed it to 0.50 ATM what will the new v
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The new volume will be 42, 7 L.

Explanation:

We use the gas formula, which results from the combination of the Boyle, Charles and Gay-Lussac laws. According to which at a constant mass, temperature, pressure and volume vary, keeping constant PV / T. The conditions STP are: 1 atm of pressure and 273 K of temperature.

P1xV1/T1 =P2xV2/T2

1 atmx 22,4 L/273K = 0,5atmx V2/260K

V2=((1 atmx 22,4 L/273K )x 260K)/0,5 atm= 42, 67L
