Explanation:
Ionic equation
NaCl(aq) --> Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Na2SO4(aq) --> 2Na+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)
In NaCl solution, 1 mole of Na+ is dissociated in 1 liter of solution while in Na2SO4, 2 moles of Na+ is dissociated in 1 liter of solution.
Molecular weight of NA2SO4 = (23*2) + 32 + (16*4)
= 142 g/mol
Molecular weight of NaCl = 23 + 35.5
= 58.5 g/mol
Masses
% Mass of NA+ in Na2SO4 = mass of Na+/total mass of Na2SO4 * 100
= 46/142 * 100
= 32.4%
% Mass of NA+ in NaCl = mass of Na+/total mass of NaCl * 100
= 23/58.5 * 100
= 39.3%
Therefore, the % mass of Na+ in NaCl and Na2SO4 are different so it cannot be used.
Answer:
Explanation:
The crabs cannot see the plankton they eat near the ocean floor. For the crabs to see the plankton, some color of visible light would need to reach the plankton so that it can be reflected into the crabs' eyes.
The answer is 1.5*10^-12 square meters. For a detailed calculation, please refer to the attachment.
