A compound made of two elements, iridium (Ir) and oxygen (O), was produced in a lab by heating iridium while exposed to air. The

1) Compund Ir (x) O(y)

2) Mass of iridium = mass of crucible and iridium - mass of crucible = 39.52 g - 38.26 g = 1.26 g

3) Mass of iridium oxide = mass of crucible and iridium oxide - mass of crucible = 39.73g - 38.26g = 1.47g

4) Mass of oxygen = mass of iridum oxide - mass of iridium = 1.47g - 1.26g = 0.21g

5) Convert grams to moles

moles of iridium = mass of iridium / molar mass of iridium = 1.26 g / 192.17 g/mol = 0.00656 moles

moles of oxygen = mass of oxygen / molar mass of oxygen = 0.21 g / 15.999 g/mol = 0.0131

6) Find the proportion of moles

Divide by the least of the number of moles, i.e. 0.00656

Ir: 0.00656 / 0.00656 = 1

O: 0.0131 / 0.00656 = 2

=> Empirical formula = Ir O2 (where 2 is the superscript for O)

Answer: Ir O2

A strontium hydroxide solution is prepared by dissolving 10.60 gg of Sr(OH)2Sr(OH)2 in water to make 47.00 mLmL of solution.What
NeTakaya

Answer:

Approximately 1.854\; \rm mol\cdot L^{-1}.

Explanation:

Note that both figures in the question come with four significant figures. Therefore, the answer should also be rounded to four significant figures. Intermediate results should have more significant figures than that.

<h3>Formula mass of strontium hydroxide</h3>

Look up the relative atomic mass of \rm Sr, \rm O, and \rm H on a modern periodic table. Keep at least four significant figures in each of these atomic mass data.

  • \rm Sr: 87.62.
  • \rm O: 15.999.
  • \rm H: 1.008.

Calculate the formula mass of \rm Sr(OH)_2:

M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) = 87.62 + 2\times (15.999 + 1.008) = 121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}.

<h3>Number of moles of strontium hydroxide in the solution</h3>

M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) =121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} means that each mole of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units have a mass of 121.634\; \rm g.

The question states that there are 10.60\; \rm g of \rm Sr(OH)_2 in this solution.

How many moles of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units would that be?

\begin{aligned}n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{m\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{M\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}\\ &= \frac{10.60\; \rm g}{121.634\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol\end{aligned}.

<h3>Molarity of this strontium hydroxide solution</h3>

There are 8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol of \rm Sr(OH)_2 formula units in this 47\; \rm mL solution. Convert the unit of volume to liter:

V = 47\; \rm mL = 0.047\; \rm L.

The molarity of a solution measures its molar concentration. For this solution:

\begin{aligned}c\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right) &= \frac{n\left(\rm Sr(OH)_2\right)}{V}\\ &= \frac{8.71467\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol}{0.047\; \rm L} \approx 1.854\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}\end{aligned}.

(Rounded to four significant figures.)

You were making a cream based sauce for your pasta and decided to add some freshly canned tomatoes to the sauce. It tasted fine,
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer & explanation:

Canned fruits and vegetables generally have a high acidity and salinity content, in order to prevent the product from spoiling, in addition to enhancing its flavor.

The cream-based sauce started to curdle due to the acidity present in the canned tomatoes.

By lowering the pH of dairy products, a protein in them called casein begins to clot. It is this clotting of the casein that causes the cream-based sauce to curdle.
