How do you find the amount of moles is .032 grams of water and whats the answer
masha68 [24]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.0018 \ mol \ H_2 O }}

Explanation:

First, we need to find the molecular mass of water (H₂O).

H₂O has:

  • 2 Hydrogen atoms (subscript of 2)
  • 1 Oxygen atom (implied subscript of 1)

Use the Periodic Table to find the mass of hydrogen and oxygen. Then, multiply by the number of atoms of the element.

  • Hydrogen: 1.0079 g/mol
  • Oxygen: 15.9994 g/mol

There are 2 hydrogen atoms, so multiply the mass by 2.

  • 2 Hydrogen: (1.0079 g/mol)(2)= 2.0158 g/mol

Now, find the mass of H₂O. Add the mass of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.

  • 2.0158 g/mol + 15.9994 g/mol = 18.0152 g/mol

Next, find the amount of moles using the molecular mass we just calculated. Set up a ratio.

0.032 \ g  \ H_2 O* \frac{ 1 \ mol \ H_2 O}{18.0152 \ g \ H_2 O}

Multiply. The grams of H₂O will cancel out.

0.032 * \frac{1 \ mol \ H_2 O}{18.0152 }

\frac{0.032 *1 \ mol \ H_2 O}{18.0152 }

0.00177627781 \ mol \ H_2 O

The original measurement given had two significant figures (3,2). We must round to have 2 significant figures. All the zeroes before the 1 are not significant. So, round to the ten thousandth.

The 7 in the hundred thousandth place tells us to round up.

0.0018 \ mol \ H_2 O

There are about <u>0.0018 moles in 0.032 grams.</u>

A sample of black coffee was measured to have [h3o+] = 7.94 × 10−6. what is true about this solution?
Sveta_85 [38]
Being given the hydronium (or simply the hydrogen) ion concentration (molarity), one of the easiest properties of the solution to determine is its pH. The pH of a solution indicates the acidity (or basicity) of a given solution. The typical pH range of solutions is from 1 to 14, with 7 being neutral, 1 to 6 being acidic, and 8 to 14 being basic. 

To determine the pH of a solution, the negative log (-log) of the hydronium/hydrogen ion concentration (molarity) of the solution is calculated. Thus (assuming that the given hydrogen ion concentration is in molarity (mol/L)),

             pH = -log(H^{+})          or          -log(H_{3} O^{+}
             pH = -log (<span>7.94 × 10−6 mol/L) 
             pH = 5.13

Because the pH is less than 7 (within the range 1 to 6), then the black coffee solution is acidic. </span>

Iron has a density of 7.86 g/cm3. Calculate the volume (in dL) of a piece of iron having a mass of 4.07 kg . Note that the densi
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The volume of the piece of iron is 5.18dL.

Explanation:

The density (ρ) is equal to the mass (m) divided the volume (V).

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

If we rearrange it, we have:

V=\frac{m}{\rho }

To express the volume in dL we will need the following relations:

  • 1 dL = 0.1 L
  • 1 kg = 10³ g
  • 1 cm³ = 1 mL
  • 1mL = 10⁻³L

Then,

\rho = \frac{7.86g}{cm^{3} } .\frac{1cm^{3} }{1mL} .\frac{1mL}{10^{-3}L } .\frac{1kg}{10^{3}g } =7.86kg/L

Finally,

V=\frac{m}{\rho }=\frac{4.07kg}{7.86 kg/L} =0.518L.\frac{1dL}{0.1L} =5.18dL
