If we add 20g of salt to 150g of water, what is the concentration by mass of the solution?

Chemistry

Answer:

11.76% by weight in salt

Explanation:

concentration = mass of solute / mass of solute + mass of solvent

mass of solute = 20 grams

mass of solvent = 150 grams

mass of solute + mass of solvent = 20g + 150g = 170g

concentration (weight %) =  (20g / 170g)100% = 11.76% by weight in salt.

A 10 gram sample of H20 is sealed in a 1350 ml flask at 27°C. Given the fact that water has a vapor pressure of 26.7 mmHg at thi
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

9.9652g of water

Explanation:

The establishment of the liquid-vapor equilibrium occurs when the vapour of water is equal to vapour pressurem 26.7 mmHg. Using gas law it is possible to know how many moles exert that pressure, thus:

n = PV / RT

Where P is pressure 26,7 mmHg (0.0351atm), V is volume (1.350L), R is gas constant (0.082 atmL/molK) and T is temperature (27°C + 273,15 = 300.15K)

Replacing:

n = 0.0351atm×1.350L / 0.082atmL/molK×300.15K

n = 1.93x10⁻³ moles of water are in gaseous phase. In grams:

1.93x10⁻³ moles × (18.01g / 1mol) = <u><em>0.0348g of water</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

As the initial mass of water was 10g, the mass of water that remains in liquid phase is:

10g - 0.0348g = <em>9.9652g of water</em>

<em />

When magnesium metal is heated in air it begins to release large amounts of heat and light. What kind of a reaction is this an e
Salsk061 [2.6K]
It is called exothermic reaction because it releases heat and light and it is called combustion reaction because it is reacting and is being oxidised by O2 to MgO. It can also be called as oxidation reaction since Mg is oxidised to MgO.

Calculate the mass of ethyl alcohol required to prepare 540 grams of C4H6, if the reaction follows the scheme:
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Explanation:

2C₂H₅OH    =   C₄H₆  +  2H₂O  +  H₂

2 mole               1 mole

molecular weight of ethyl alcohol

mol weight of C₂H₅OH = 46 gm            

mol weight of C₄H₆  54 gm

540 gm of C₄H₆ = 10 mole

10 mole of C₄H₆ will require 20 mol of ethyl alcohol .

20 mole of ethyl alcohol = 20  x 46

= 920 gm

ethyl alcohol required = 920 gm .
