Vinegar is a dilute solution ethanoic acid in water (see the question above for the structure of ethanoic acid). In order to tes

t the strength of a vinegar, a 10.00 gram sample was titrated with sodium hydroxide (0.1001 mole/kg of solution). The mass of the. burette before the titration is 131.44 g and upon reaching the endpoint the burette weighted 48.11 g. How many moles of acetic acid are in the sample?

Answer:

Explanation:

Below is the equation of the chemical reaction:

CH3COOH (aq) + NaOH (aq) ----------> CH3COONa (aq) + H2O (l)

The mole ratio of acid and base in the balanced equation is:

Ma = 1, Mb = 1

Cb = 0.1001 mole/Kg

Ca = ???

Va = 10 grams

Vb = 131.44 - 48.11 = 83.33 grams

From the acid-base mole ration formula

\frac{Ma}{Mb} = \frac{Ca x Va }{Cb * Vb}

\frac{1}{1} = \frac{Ca x 10 }{0.1001 * 83.33}

Ca = \frac{0.1001 x 83.33}{10.00} = 0.8341333 mole/kg

The number of moles of acetic acid in the sample = 0.8341333  * \frac{10}{1000}  = 0.008341333 moles

Therefore 0.008341333 moles of acetic acid are in the sample.

Answer:

Part A: 36 MBq; Part B: 18 MBq

Explanation:

The half-life is the time it takes for half the substance to disappear.

The activity decreases by half every half-life

A =Ao(½)^n, where n is the number of half-lives.

Part A

3.0 da = 1 half-life

A =  Ao(½) = ½ × 72 MBq = 36 MBq

Part B

6.0 da = 2 half-lives

A = Ao(½)^2 = ¼ × 72 MBq = 18 MBq

What mass (in grams) of silver contains the same number of atoms as 5.59 grams of sulfur?
Amanda [17]

Answer:

18.84 g of silver.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number atoms present in 5.59 g of sulphur. This can be obtained as follow:

From Avogadro's hypothesis,

1 mole of sulphur contains 6.02×10²³ atoms.

1 mole of sulphur = 32 g

Thus,

32 g of sulphur contains 6.02×10²³ atoms.

Therefore, 5.59 g of sulphur will contain = (5.59 × 6.02×10²³) / 32 = 1.05×10²³ atoms.

From the calculations made above, 5.59 g of sulphur contains 1.05×10²³ atoms.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of silver that contains 1.05×10²³ atoms.

This is illustrated below:

1 mole of silver = 6.02×10²³ atoms.

1 mole of silver = 108 g

108 g of silver contains 6.02×10²³ atoms.

Therefore, Xg of silver will contain 1.05×10²³ atoms i.e

Xg of silver = (108 × 1.05×10²³)/6.02×10²³

Xg of silver = 18.84 g

Thus, 18.84 g of silver contains the same number of atoms (i.e 1.05×10²³ atoms) as 5.59 g of sulfur
