Answer:

The mass of oxygen needed to be pumped in the aquarium is 10 g

Explanation:

Here the value of the degree of solubility of oxygen in water is sought

The solubility of oxygen in fresh water is approximately 1.22 × 10⁻³ mol·dm⁻³ which is equivalent to approximately 40 mg/L

The volume of water the aquarium holds = 250 L

The mass of oxygen required = The solubility of oxygen in water × (The volume of water in the aquarium)

Therefore, the mass of oxygen needed to be pumped in the aquarium = 40 mg/L × 250 L = 10,000 mg

1,000 mg = 1 g

∴ 10,000 mg = 10 g

The mass of oxygen needed to be pumped in the aquarium = 10,000 mg = 10 g.

What is the overall effect of adding a solute to a Solution
user100 [1]

Answer:

By adding the solute in to solution boiling point is increased while freezing point is decreased.

Explanation:

When solute in added into the solvent the boiling point of solvent increases for example,

Water is boiled at 100 °C, when sodium chloride is added its boiling point increased. Ions of salt interact with solvent and prevent the water molecules to escape from the surface and form gas molecules. In order to make it boiled solution must be heated above 100  °C.

But there is different case with freezing point. Freezing point is the state in which substance converted into the solid. At given temperature when solute is added into the solvent it prevent the formation of solid. It required time to decrease the temperature first and as the temperature is decreases solid is formed.

What is an example of entropy from everyday life?
Lorico [155]
One of the greatest examples of entropy working in everyday life is the fact that a messy room is the norm. So if you clean your room it will likely become messy over a period of time, and work will have to be put in to make it orderly again.
