Answer:

There are approximately 0.271\; \rm mol of formula units in that \rm 15.2\; g of \rm KOH (the solute of this solution.)

Explanation:

A solution includes two substances: the solute and the solvent. Note the solution here contains significantly more water than \rm KOH. Hence, assume that water is the solvent (as it is in many other solutions.)

The (molar) formula mass of \rm KOH is necessary for finding the number of moles of

  • One \rm K atom,
  • One \rm O atom, and
  • One \rm  H atom.

The formula mass of \rm KOH will thus be the sum of:

  • The mass of one mole of \rm K atoms,
  • The mass of one mole of \rm O atoms, and
  • The mass of one mole of \rm H atoms.

On the other hand, the mass (in grams) of one mole of atoms of an element is (numerically) the same as its relative atomic mass. The relative atomic mass data can be found on most modern periodic tables.

Relative atomic mass data from a modern periodic table:

  • \rm K: 39.098.
  • \rm O: 15.999.
  • \rm H: 1.008.

For example, the relative atomic mass of \rm K (potassium, atomic number 19) is 39.098 (3 sig. fig.) Hence, the mass of one mole of

The formula mass of \rm KOH is the sum of these three masses:

\begin{aligned}& M(\mathrm{KOH}) \\ &\approx 39.098 + 15.999 + 1.008 \\ &= 56.105\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

The number of moles of \rm KOH formula units in this 15.2\; \rm g sample would be:

\begin{aligned}n &= \frac{m(\mathrm{KOH})}{M(\mathrm{KOH})} \\ &\approx \frac{15.2\; \rm g}{56.105\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 0.271\; \rm mol \end{aligned}.

What is the rate of chemical reaction?​
babymother [125]

Explanation:

The rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time. Reaction rates can vary dramatically.

Gamma rays contain much more energy (most penetrating) than radio waves because they have a greater frequencies.
Radio waves are the electromagnetic waves with the longest wavelengths (1dm to 100 km), lowest frequencies (3kHz to 3GHz) and lowest energy (124 peV to <span>12,4 μeV).
</span>Gamma rays are the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths (1 pm), highest frequencies (300 EHz) and highest energy (1,24 Me<span>V</span>).
