Answer:
0.03682 mL of mercury
Explanation:
We know the density of the mercury which is 13.58 g/mL
density = mass / volume
volume = mass / density
Now we can calculate the volume of 0.5 g of mercury:
volume = 0.5 / 13.58 = 0.03682 mL of mercury
Answer:
2 sig figs.
Explanation:
Sig Fig Rules:
Any non-zero digit is a significant figure.
Any zeros between 2 non-zero digits are significant figures.
Trailing zeros after the decimal are significant figures.
Answer:
The percent by mass of copper in the mixture was 32%
Explanation:
The ammount of HNO₃ used is:
mol HNO₃ = volume * concentration
mol HNO₃ = 0.015 l * 15.8 mol/l
mol HNO₃ = 0.237 mol
According to the reaction, 4 mol HNO₃ will react with 1 mol Cu and produce 1 mol Cu²⁺. Since we have 0.237 mol HNO₃, the amount of Cu that could react would be (0.237 mol HNO₃ * 1 mol Cu / 4 mol HNO₃) 0.06 mol. This reaction would produce 0.060 mol Cu²⁺, however, only 0.010 mol Cu²⁺ were obtained, indicating that only 0.010 mol Cu were present in the mixture. This means that the acid was in excess, so we can assume that all copper present in the mixture has reacted.
Since 0.010 mol of Cu²⁺ were produced, the amount of Cu was 0.01 mol.
1 mol of Cu has a mass of 63.5 g, then 0.01 mol has a mass of:
0.01 mol Cu * 63.5 g / 1 mol = 0.635 g.
Since this amount was present in 2.00 g mixture, the amount of copper in 100 g of the mixture will be:
100 g(mixture) * 0.635 g Cu / 2 g(mixture) = 32 g
Then, the percent by mass of Cu (which is the mass of Cu in 100 g mixture) is 32%
Environmental contingency plan is important to lessen or even prevent casualties or damage to infrastructures when unexpected environmental disasters happen. This is a common management strategy to lessen the costs of the company in the future. More importantly, it is used for safety purposes.
