Answer:

0.0084

Explanation:

The mole fraction of BaCl₂ (X) is calculated as follows:

X = moles BaCl₂/total moles of solution

Given:

moles of BaCl₂ = 0.400 moles

mass of water = 850.0 g

We have to convert the mass of water to moles, by using the molecular weight of water (Mw):

Mw of water (H₂O) = (2 x 1 g/mol)+ 16 g/mol = 18 g/mol

moles of water = mass of water/Mw of water = 850.0 g/(18 g/mol) = 47.2 mol

The total moles of the solution is given by the addition of the moles of solute (BaCl₂) and the moles of solvent (water):

total moles of solution = moles of BaCl₂ + moles of water = 0.400 + 47.2 mol = 47.6 mol

Finally, we calculate the mole fraction:

X = 0.400 mol/47.6 mol = 0.0084

What is the molar mass of a gas if a flask with a volume of 3. 16 l contains 9. 33 grams of the gas at 32. 0°c and 1. 00 atm?

Serhud [2]

The molar mass of a gas if a flask with a volume of 3. 16 L contains 9. 33 grams of the gas at 32. 0°C and 1. 00 atm is 1.17g/mol

Calculation ,

In this question we have to fist find the number of moles of gas by using ideal gas equation and from the help of number of moles we can determine molar mass.

According to ideal gas equation which is also known as ideal law ,

PV = nRT ...( i )

where P is the pressure of the gas = 1 atm

V is the volume of the gas in the flask with volume = 3. 16 L

R is the universal gas constant = 0.082 atm L/K mol

T is the temperature = 32. 0°C = 32 + 273 = 305 K

n is the number of moles = ?

Putting the value of Pressure P , volume V , temperature T , number of moles n and universal gas constant R in the equation (i) we get ,

1 atm ×3. 16 L = n× 0.082 atm L/K mol ×305 K

n = 1 atm ×3. 16 L / 0.082 atm L/K mol × 305 K = 0.126 mole

number of mole of a gas = 0.126 mole = given mass/ molar mass

molar mass = number of moles × Given mass = 0.126 × 9. 33 = 1.17g/mol

How many molecules are there in a 1.43 mole sample of H2O2?

SIZIF [17.4K]

One mole of hydrogen peroxide contains 6.02 x 10^23 molecules of hydrogen peroxide. And each molecule contains 4 atoms, so the answer is 4 x 6.02 x 10^23.

Answer:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$ of particles and weighs equal to its molecular mass.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}$

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given molecules}}{\text {Avogadros number}}$

a. moles in 14.08 g of $C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}$ = $\frac{14.08g}{342.3g/mol}=0.04113moles$

molecules in 14.08 g of $C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}$ = $0.04113\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=0.2477\times 10^{23}$

b. moles in 17.75 g of NaCl = $\frac{17.75g}{58.5g/mol}=0.3034moles$

molecules in 17.75 g of $NaCl$ = $0.3034\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=1.827\times 10^{23}$

formula units 17.75 g of $NaCl$ = $0.3034\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=1.827\times 10^{23}$

c. moles in 20.06 g of $CuSO_4.5H_2O$ = $\frac{20.06g}{249.68g/mol}=0.08034moles$

formula units in 20.06 g of $CuSO_4.5H_2O$ = $0.08034\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=0.4839\times 10^{23}$
