Describe a Mesosaurus.

1 answer:

5 0

Mesosaurus lived in freshwater lakes and ponds. Elongated and slim, it measured about 3.3 feet long. The skull and tail were both long and narrow, and the animal probably undulated through the water as it fed on small crustaceans and other prey with its jaws, which were full of long, thin, pointed teeth.

At the Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide gas in water is . Calculate the mass in grams of gas that can be dissolved in of

Dvinal [7]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

At 25°C Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide gas in water is 0.031 M/atm . Calculate the mass in grams of gas that can be dissolved in 425. mL of water at 25°C and at a partial pressure of 2.92 atm. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of carbon dioxide that can be dissolved is 1.7 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{CO_2}=K_H\times p_{CO_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $0.031M/atm$

$C_{CO_2}$ = molar solubility of carbon dioxide gas

$p_{CO_2}$ = partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas = 2.92 atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{CO_2}=0.031M/atm\times 2.92 atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=0.0905M$

To calculate the mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Given mass of carbon dioxide = ? g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molarity of solution = $0.0905mol/L$

Volume of solution = 425 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0905mol/L=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}\times 1000}{44g/mol\times 425}\\\\\text{Mass of solute}=\frac{44\times 425\times 0.0905}{1000}=1.7g$

Hence, the mass of carbon dioxide that can be dissolved is 1.7 grams

Anybody know the answer to this

An atom's mass is determined by its protons and neutrons.

An atom's charge is determined by its number of protons minus it number of electrons.

Atoms become cations, or positively charged when they lose an electron, and since electrons have a negative charge, they become anions, or negatively charged.

Water is a universal solvent.

Carbohydrates (carbs) are used by the body for energy.

Steroids and triglycerides are lipids.

Proteins that catalyze chemical reactions are called enzymes.
