Answer:

a) 0,2% w/v

b) r=500

c) 0,0182 M

d) 0,0145 m

e) 0,0137 equivalents

Explanation:

a) % w/v means mass of solute in grams per 100 mililiter of solution. Thus:

%w/v= \frac{1,000 g CaCl2}{500mL}×100 = 0,2%w/v

b) Ratio strength is a way to express concentration.  For w/v is in 1g of solute <em>r</em> mililiters of solution have. Thus, r = 500 because we have in the first 1 g of CaCl₂ in 500 mL of solution.

c) Molarity is moles of solute per liter of solution, thus:

1,000 g of CaCl₂ × \frac{1mol}{110g} = 9,09×10⁻³ moles of CaCl₂

500 mL of solution  × \frac{1L}{1000mL} = 0,500 L of solution

M = \frac{9,09x10^{-3} moles }{0,500 L} = 0,0182 M

d) Molality is moles of solute per kg of solution.

Specific gravity is the ratio between density of the solution and density of a reference substance (Usually water). With a specific gravity of 0,8:

kg of solution = 0,500 L of solution × \frac{0,8 kg}{1L} =<em> </em><em>0,625 kg of solution</em>

m = \frac{9,09x10^{-3}moles }{0,625 kg} = 0,0145 m

e)  In a salt, equivalents are the number of moles ables to replace one mole of charge. In CaCl₂ is ¹/₂ because with  ¹/₂ moles of CaCl₂ it is possible to replace 1 mole of charges. Thus, in 1,5 L there are:

1,5 L ×\frac{0,0182 CaCl2 moles}{1L} × \frac{1equivalent}{2 moles} = 0,0137 equivalents

I hope it helps!

A chemist found that 4.69 g of sulfur combined with fluorine to produce 15.81 g of a gas. what is the empirical formula of the g
timofeeve [1]
Mass of sulfur combined - 4.69 g
Mass of gas produced is 15.81 g, therefore mass of fluorine is (15.81-4.69) = 11.12 g
Number of sulfur moles - 4.69 g/32 g/mol = 0.15 mol
Number of fluorine moles - 11.12 g/ 19 g/mol = 0.585 mol
divide both by least number of moles 
S - 0.15/0.15 = 1
F - 0.585/0.15 = 3.9 rounded off is 4
ratio of S to F = 1:4Therefore formula of the gas is SF₄

Why does water flow decrease in your shower when someone flushes the toilet ​
Rashid [163]

Answer:

A toilet requires a large amount of cold water to flush. So, when the toilet flushes while you're in the shower, it's stealing from your shower's cold water supply. When the pressure-balancing valve senses the drop in cold water pressure, it responds by restricting the hot water pressure.

The density of lead is 11.4g/cm3. What volume, in ft3, would be occupied by 10.0 g of lead?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Density (D) of lead = 11.4 g/cm³

Mass (m) of lead = 10 g

Volume (V) of lead =.?

Density (D) = mass (m) / Volume (V)

D = m/V

11.4 = 10 / V

Cross multiply

11.4 × V = 10

Divide both side by 11.4

V = 10 / 11.4

V = 0.877 cm³

Finally, we shall convert 0.877 cm³ to ft³. This can be obtained as follow:

1 cm³ = 3.531×10¯⁵ ft³

Therefore,

0.877 cm³ = 0.877 cm³ × 3.531×10¯⁵ ft³ /1 cm³

0.877 cm³ = 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³

Thus, 0.877 cm³ is equivalent to 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.

Therefore, the volume of the lead in ft³ is 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.

Which of the following Period 4 elements has the most metallic characteristics?
stealth61 [152]
The scale of most metal characteristics goes from the bottom left-hand corner.

The least metallic is the top right-hand.

So then that means that

Calcium-YES, second column
Germanium-No, to far, in the middle
Arsenic-Non-metal,
Bromine, same for this

Calcium
