Answer:

[CH₃COOH] = 17.4 M

Explanation:

Acetic acid → CH₃COOH

Molar mass → 60 g/mol

99.5% is percent by mass concentration. It means that 99.5 grams of solute are contained in 100g of solution.

Density → 1.05 g/mL. This data is always referred to solution, not solute!.

We determine solution's volume:

1.05 g/mL = 100 g / V → V = 100 g /1.05 g/mL → 95.2 mL

Now we know, that 99.5 g of acetic acid are contained in 95.2 mL

Let's convert to mmoles → 99.5 g / 60 g/mol = 1.66 moles

We convert solution's volume to L → 95.2 mL . 1L / 1000 mL = 0.0952 L

M (mol/L) = 1.66 mol / 0.0952 L = 17.4 M

When zn(oh)2(s) was added to 1.00 l of a basic solution, 1.09×10−2 mol of the solid dissolved. what is the concentration of oh−
uysha [10]
The concentration of the basic solution is determined by:

N = (number of moles / volume of solution) 

number of moles = 1.09 x 10^-2 mol
volume of solution = 1 liter
N of basic solution = 1.09 x 10^-2 mol / 1 liter
N = 1.09 x 10^-2 mol/L

The initial concentration of Zn (OH)2 is 0; the basic solution is 1.09x10^-2 M, then the concentration of OH in the final solution is 1.09x10^-2 M

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The author is probably reminding us that knowing the origins of words helps us to remember what they mean.

If "verde" means "green", the "verd" in "verdigris" probably means that verdigris is green.

However, the "verd" in verdigris domes from other languages.

It was originally Latin "viride aeris" (green brass).

In old French it became "verte de Grèce" (green of Greece). The modern French spelling is "vert-de-gris" (green of grey).

The English word "verdigris" comes from the French words.
