A 0.75M solution of CH3OH is prepared in 0.500 kg of water. How many moles of CH3OH are needed?

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

We need 0.375 mol of CH3OH to prepare the solution

Explanation:

For the problem they give us the following data:

Solution concentration 0,75 M

Mass of Solvent is 0,5Kg

knowing that the density of water is 1g / mL, we find the volume of water:

$d = \frac{g}{mL} \\\\ V= \frac{g}{d} = \frac{500g}{1 \frac{g}{mL} } = 500mL = 0,5 L$

Now, find moles of $CH_{3} OH$ are needed using the molarity equation:

$M = \frac{ moles }{ V (L)} \\\\\\molesCH_{3}OH = M . V(L) = 0,75 M . 0,5 L\\\\molesCH_{3}OH = 0,375 mol$

therefore the solution is prepared using 0.5 L of H2O and 0.375 moles of CH3OH, resulting in a concentration of 0,75M

Answer:

N - 1s²2s²2p³

Explanation:

Nitrogen is located in the p-block of the periodic table (groups 13-18) and is on the 2nd period.

The 2nd period tells us the principal energy level (a quantum number) is n = 2. Therefore, it must have already filled up the 1s sublevel.

The groups 13-18 on period 2 tells us that the 2s sublevel is also filled.

Nitrogen is located in Group 15. That means that there are 3 electrons that have filled the 2p sublevel, out of a possible 6.

Therefore, our electron configuration is 1s²2s²2p³

2p³ (Shorthand Config)

[He] 2s²2p³ (Noble Gas Config)

A 0.100 M solution of bromoacetic acid (BrCH2COOH) is 13.2% ionized. Calculate [H+]? Calculate BrCH2COO^ - ? Calculate BrCH2COOH

Natali [406]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of hydrogen ion and bromoacetate ion is 0.0132 M and 0.0132 M resepectively and that of bromoacetic acid is 0.0868 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Molarity of bromoacetic acid = 0.100 M

Percent of ionization = 13.2 %

The chemical equation for the ionization of bromoacetic acid follows:

$BrCH_2COOH\rightarrow BrCH_2COO^-+H^+$

1 mole of bromoacetic acid produces 1 mole of bromoacetate ion and 1 mole of hydrogen ion

Molarity of hydrogen ion = 13.2 % of 0.100 = $\frac{13.2}{100}\times 0.100=0.0132M$

Molarity of bromoacetate ion = molarity of hydrogen ion = 0.0132 M

Molarity of bromoacetic acid = Molarity of solution - Molarity of ionized substance

Molarity of bromoacetic acid = 0.100 - 0.0132 = 0.0868 M

Hence, the concentration of hydrogen ion and bromoacetate ion is 0.0132 M and 0.0132 M resepectively and that of bromoacetic acid is 0.0868 M
