Answer:

O: 4.2 × 10⁴ g

C: 1.2 × 10⁴ g

H: 6.4 × 10³ g

N: 1.9 × 10³ g

Ca: 1.0 × 10³ g

P: 7.7 × 10² g

Other elements: 7.7 × 10² g

Explanation:

Natural abundances of elements in the human body (in percent by mass)

  • oxygen (O), 65%
  • carbon (C), 18%
  • hydrogen (H), 10%
  • nitrogen (N), 3.0%
  • calcium (Ca), 1.6%
  • phosphorus (P), 1.2%
  • all other elements, 1.2%

The mass of a body is 64 kg = 64 × 10³ g = 6.4 × 10⁴ g. We can calculate the mass of each element by <em>multiplying the body weight by the mass percent of each element</em>.

O: 6.4 × 10⁴ g × 65% = 4.2 × 10⁴ g

C: 6.4 × 10⁴ g × 18% = 1.2 × 10⁴ g

H: 6.4 × 10⁴ g × 10% = 6.4 × 10³ g

N: 6.4 × 10⁴ g × 3.0% = 1.9 × 10³ g

Ca: 6.4 × 10⁴ g × 1.6% = 1.0 × 10³ g

P: 6.4 × 10⁴ g × 1.2% = 7.7 × 10² g

Other elements: 6.4 × 10⁴ g × 1.2% = 7.7 × 10² g

It is given that the person weighs 62 kg = 62,000 g

Natural abundances in mass percent are:

O = 65%

C = 18%

H = 10%

N = 3.0%

Ca = 1.6%

P = 1.2%

Corresponding weights of the elements are:

O = 65/100 * 62000 g = 40.30 * 10^3 g

C = 18/100 * 62000 g = 11.16 * 10^3 g

H = 10/100 * 62000 g = 62.00 * 10^2 g

N = 3.0/100 * 62000 g = 18.60 * 10^2 g

Ca = 1.6/100 * 62000 g = 9.92 * 10^2 g

P = 1.2/100 * 62000 g = 7.44 * 10^2 g

A solution is prepared by dissolving 33.0 milligrams of sodium chloride in 1000. L of water. Assume a final volume of 1000. lite
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

a. Molarity of NaCl solution = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

b. molarity of Na⁺ = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

c. molarity of Cl⁻ = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

d. Osmolarity = 1.128 osmol

e. mass percent of NaCl = 3.30 * 10⁻⁶ %

f. parts per million NaCl = 0.033 ppm NaCl

g. parts per billion of NaCl = 33 ppb of NaCl

h. From the values obtained from e, f and g, the most convenient to use and understand is parts per billion as it has less of a fractional part to deal with especially since the solute concentration is very small.

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution = number of moles of solute (moles)/volume of solution (L)

where number of moles of solute = mass of solute (g)/molar mass of solute (g/mol)

a. Molarity of NaCl:

molar mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mol, mass of NaCl = 33.0/1000) g = 0.033g

number of moles of NaCl = 0.033/58.5 = 0.000564 moles

Molarity of NaCl solution = 0.000564/1000 = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

b. Equation for the dissociation of NaCl in solution: NaCl ----> Na⁺ + Cl⁻

From the above equation I mole of NaCl dissociates to give 1 mole of Na⁺ ions,

Therefore molarity of Na⁺ = 1 * 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

c. From the above equation I mole of NaCl dissociates to give 1 mole of Cl⁻ ions,

therefore molarity of Cl⁻ = 1 * 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L = 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L

d. From the above equation, dissociation of NaCl in water produces 1 mol Na⁺ and 1 mole Cl⁻.

Total number of particles produced = 2

Osmolarity of solution = number of particles * molarity of siolution

Osmolarity = 2 * 5.64 * 10⁻⁷ mol/L = 1.128 osmol

e. mass of percent of NaCl = {mass of NaCl (g)/ mass of solution (g)} * 100

density of water = 1 Kg/L

mass of water = 1 Kg/L * 1000 L = 1000 kg

1Kg = 1000 g

Therefore mass of solution in g = 1000 * 1000 = 1 * 10⁶ g

mass percent of NaCl = (0.033/1 * 10⁶) * 100 = 3.30 * 10⁻⁶ %

f. Parts per million of NaCl:

parts per million = 1 mg of solute/L of solution

One thousandth of a gram is one milligram and 1000 ml is one liter, so that 1 ppm = 1 mg per liter = mg/Liter.

Since the density of water is 1kg/L = 1,000,000 mg/L

1mg/L = 1mg/1,000,000mg or one part in one million.

parts per million NaCl = 33.0/1000 L = 0.033 ppm NaCl

g. Parts per billion = 1 µg/L of solution

1 g = 1000 µg

therefore, 33.0 mg = 33.0 * 1000 µg = 3.30 * 10⁴ µg

parts per billion of NaCl = 3.30 * 10⁴ µg/1000 L = 33 ppb of NaCl

h. From the values obtained from e, f and g, the most convenient to use and understand is parts per billion as it has less of a fractional part to deal with especially since the solute concentration is very small.

Sodas are made fizzy by the carbon dioxide ( CO ) dissolved in the liquid. An amount of carbon 2 dioxide equal to about 8.0 L of
eduard

Answer:

A) The number of moles of Carbon dioxide in 2.0 L bottle of soda = 0.325 mole

B) The mass of Carbon dioxide in 2.0 L bottle of soda = 14.3 g

Explanation:

Complete Question

Soda are made fizzy by the carbon dioxide (CO₂) dissolved int he liquid. An amount of carbon dioxide equal to about 8.0 L of carbon dioxide gas at atmospheric pressure and 300.0 K can be dissolved can be dissolved in a 2-L bottle of soda. The molar mass of CO₂ IS 44 g/mol.

A) How many moles of carbon dioxode are in the 2-L? (1L = 0.001 m³)

B) What is the mass of the carbon dioxide in the 2-L bottle of soda?

Solution

Assuming that CO₂ is an ideal gas.

A) The amount of carbon dioxide in 2.0 L of soda bottle is equal to the amount of Carbon dioxide in about 8.0 L of carbon dioxide gas at atmospheric pressure and 300.0 K

From the ideal gas equation, we know that

PV = nRT

P = pressure of the gas = atmospheric pressure = 101,325 Pa

V = volume of the gas = 8.0 L = 0.008 m³

n = number of moles of the ideal gas = ?

R = molar gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = absolute temperature of the gas in Kelvin = 300 K

101325 × 0.008 = n × 8.314 × 300

n = (101325×0.008) ÷ (8.314 × 300)

n = 0.324993986 = 0.325 mole of Carbon dioxide.

B) The mass of Carbon dioxide in 2.0 L bottle of soda

Mass = (Number of moles) × (Molar mass)

= 0.325 × 44.0

= 14.3 g

Answer:

When nitric acid combine with sodium hydroxide the salt formed is called sodium nitrate. option B

Explanation:

It is the strong acid strong base reaction. When acid and base react with each other salt and water are formed.

In given reaction  nitric acid combine with sodium hydroxide base and form sodium nitrate salt and water.

Chemical equation:

HNO₃(aq) + NaOH(aq)       →      NaNO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

Ionic equation:

H⁺NO₃⁻(aq) + Na⁺OH⁻(aq)       →      Na⁺NO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l)

Net ionic equation:

H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)   →   H₂O(l)

The Na⁺(aq) and NO₃⁻(aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The water can not be splitted into ions because it is present in liquid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.
