Answer:

3.88g/mL

Explanation:

Density could be understood as the mass of a compound when it occupies 1mL.

To find the mass in 1mL we need to determine the volume that the piece occupies:

Based on Archimedes' principle, the volume of water displaced is equal to volume of the aluminium piece, that is:

54.4mL - 41.8mL = 12.6mL

As the piece has as mass 48.9g, the density is:

48.9g / 12.6mL =

A student dissolved 1.805g of a monoacidic weak base in 55mL of water. Calculate the equilibrium pH for the weak monoacidic base
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

11.39

Explanation:

Given that:

pK_{b}=4.82

K_{b}=10^{-4.82}=1.5136\times 10^{-5}

Given that:

Mass = 1.805 g

Molar mass = 82.0343 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{1.805\ g}{82.0343\ g/mol}

Moles= 0.022\ moles

Given Volume = 55 mL = 0.055 L ( 1 mL = 0.001 L)

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Molarity=\frac{0.022}{0.055}

Concentration = 0.4 M

Consider the ICE take for the dissociation of the base as:

                                  B +   H₂O    ⇄     BH⁺ +        OH⁻

At t=0                        0.4                          -              -

At t =equilibrium     (0.4-x)                        x           x            

The expression for dissociation constant is:

K_{b}=\frac {\left [ BH^{+} \right ]\left [ {OH}^- \right ]}{[B]}

1.5136\times 10^{-5}=\frac {x^2}{0.4-x}

x is very small, so (0.4 - x) ≅ 0.4

Solving for x, we get:

x = 2.4606×10⁻³  M

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(2.4606×10⁻³) = 2.61

<u>pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 2.61 = 11.39</u>

Would Li CO2 and LiOH produce the same colors? Explain your thinking.
saul85 [17]

Answer:

Lithium hydroxide is a base.

Carbon dioxide is the anhydride of the carbonic acid, H₂CO₃.

Therefore, the reaction awaited is a typical neutralization reaction with the formation of a salt and water.

2LiOH + CO₂ → Li₂CO₃ + H₂O

So, 2*20 = 40 moles of LiOH react with 20 moles of CO₂.

Molar Mass of LiOH = 23.95 g/mol

So, 40 * 23.95 = 958 g

What is the molar mass of a gas if 0.281 g of the gas occupies a volume of 125 ml at a temperature 126 °c and a pressure of 777
AleksAgata [21]
<em>Answer :</em> 72.05 g/mol
<span>
<em>Explanation : </em>

Let's </span>assume that the given gas is an ideal gas. Then we can use ideal gas equation,<span>
PV = nRT<span>
</span>
Where, 
P = Pressure of the gas (Pa)
V = volume of the gas (m³)
n = number of moles (mol)
R = Universal gas constant (8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻¹)<span>
T = temperature in Kelvin (K)
<span>
The given data for the gas </span></span>is,<span>
P = 777 torr = 103591 Pa
V = </span>125 mL = 125 x 10⁻⁶ m³<span>
T = (</span>126 + 273<span>) = 399 K
R = 8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻¹<span>
n = ?

By applying the formula,
103591 Pa x  </span>125 x 10⁻⁶ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 399 K<span>
                                          n = 3.90 x 10</span>⁻³<span> mol

</span>Moles (mol) = mass (g) / molar mass (g/mol)<span>

Mass of the gas = </span><span>0.281 g
</span>Moles of the gas = 3.90 x 10⁻³ mol
<span>Hence,
   molar mass of the gas = mass / moles
                                          = 0.281 g / </span>3.90 x 10⁻³ mol
<span>                                          = 72.05 g/mol
