Answer:

Explanation:

In an aqueous solution of potassium sulfate (K₂SO₄), the solute is K₂SO₄ and the solvent is water. The percentage by mass describes the grams of solute there are dissolved per 100 grams of solution. It can be calculated as:

mass percentage = (mass of solute/total mass of solution) x 100%

For example, in an aqueous solution which is 2% by mass of K₂SO₄, there are 2 grams of K₂SO₄ per 100 g of solution.

Which substance is a binary acid

elena-s [515]

It is known that acids compounds contains hydrogen and produces hydrogen ion in water. A binary acid however is an acid that have two elements, one of the element has a hydrogen attached to it. Examples of binary acids are hydrogen fluoride (HF), hydrogen bromide (HBr) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). In naming a binary acid, it has two rules; one, as pure compounds and two, as acid solutions. For pure compounds, start with the name ‘hydrogen’ and end the anion name with ‘-ide’. For acidic compounds, start with ‘hydro-‘, end the anion with ‘-ic’ and add ‘acid’.

The concentration of oxalate ion (C2O42-) in a sample can be determined by titration with a solution of permanganate ion (MnO4-)

zmey [24]

Answer:

0.3152 M

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

2MnO₄⁻ + 5C₂O₄⁻² + 16H⁺ → 2Mn⁺² + 8H₂O + 10CO₂

First we calculate the MnO₄⁻ moles used up in the titration, by multiplying the volume times the concentration:

21.93 mL * 0.1725 M = 3.783 mmol MnO₄⁻

Then we convert MnO₄⁻ moles to C₂O₄⁻² moles:

3.783 mmoles MnO₄⁻ * $\frac{5mmolC_2O_4}{2mmolMnO_4}$ = 9.457 mmol C₂O₄⁻²

Finally we calculate the oxalate ion concentration, by dividing the moles by the volume:

9.457 mmol C₂O₄⁻² / 30.00 mL = 0.3152 M
