<u>We are given:</u>

251 mL sample of 0.45M HCl added to 455 mL distilled water

<u>Whack a mole! (finding the number of moles):</u>

We know that in order to find molarity, we use the formula:

Molarity = number of moles / Volume (in L)

so, number of moles is:

Number of moles = Molarity * Volume(in L)

now let's plug the values for the HCl solution to find the number of moles

Number of moles = 0.45M * 0.251 L

Number of moles = 0.113 moles

<u>Time to concentrate (finding the final concentration):</u>

Total final volume = 251 mL + 455 mL = 706 mL = 0.706 L

Number of moles of HCl = 0.113 moles

Molarity = Number of moles / Volume (in L)

Molarity = 0.113 / 0.706

Molarity = 0.16 M

___________________________________________________________

<u>BONUS METHOD TIME!!!</u>

We know the relation:

M1 * V1 = M2 * V2

where M1 and M2 are the initial and final molarities and V1 and V2 are initial and final volumes respectively

notice that I didn't mention that the volume has to be in Liters, that's because of the units being concerned with both sides of the equation, say I have the volume in mL and want to convert both these volumes to L, I would divide both sides by 1000, which would NOT change the overall value

Now, plugging values in this equation

(0.45) * (251) = (251 + 455)* (M2)

112.95 = (706)(M2)

M2 = 112.97/706                                [dividing both sides by 706]

M2 = 0.16 Molar

You are asked to prepare a solution that is 2% by weight ethanol in water. Note that the molecular weight of ethanol is 46.07 g/
Serga [27]

Answer:

0.4429 m

Explanation:

Given that mass % of the ethanol in water = 2%

This means that 2 g of ethanol present in 100 g of ethanol solution.

Molality is defined as the moles of the solute present in 1 kilogram of the solvent.

Given that:

Mass of CH_3CH_2OH = 2 g

Molar mass of CH_3CH_2OH = 46.07 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

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

Thus,

Moles= \frac{2\ g}{46.07\ g/mol}

Moles\ of\ CH_3CH_2OH= 0.0434\ moles

Mass of water = 100 - 2  g = 98 g = 0.098 kg ( 1 g = 0.001 kg )

So, molality is:

m=\frac {0.0434\ moles}{0.098\ kg}

<u>Molality = 0.4429 m</u>

Suppose you will fill a glass with ice cubes. When the ice cubes melt, is the glass still full
goblinko [34]
No. It will not still be full. The reason being is because when it melts, it's almost the same thing as compacting things down into another object (container). Therefore, you will have some room left i the glass. Like, if your trashcan was over-flowing, and you push it down to compact it so you can add more trash. So when the ice melts, it will not be full.
