Answer:

1.7137\ \text{mg/L}

Explanation:

Chlorine gas available = 27 lbs = 27\times 453.59237=12247\ \text{g}

Amount of water used each day = 750000 gal = 750000\times3.785411784=2839058.84\ \text{L}

Rate at which chlorine gas used = 2.6 mg/L

Chlorine gas used

2839058.84\times 2.6\times 10^{-3}=7381.55\ \text{g}

Residual content of chlorine = 12247-7381.55=4865.45\ \text{g}

Concentration of the residual chlorine is given by

\dfrac{4865.45}{2839058.84}=0.0017137\ \text{g/L}=1.7137\ \text{mg/L}

Concentration of the residual chlorine is 1.7137\ \text{mg/L}.

ddd [48]

Answer:

a. Br2 (l) → Br2(g) ΔH°rxn = 30.91 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Bond enthalpy is the energy which is required to break 1 mol of of bonds in gaseous covalent molecules. Bond breaking process can be endothermic or exothermic depending on the molecules association. The process needs to be performed in chemical laboratory under standard conditions.

What is the percent concentration of a sodium fluoride solution made be dissolving 65.4 grams of sodium fluoride in 125.1 grams
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

34.33 %.

34.33 %.

34.33 %.

Explanation:

  • To calculate the mass percent or weight percent of a solution, you must divide the mass of the solute by the mass of the solution (both the solute and the solvent together) and then multiply by 100 to change it into percent.

<em>W% = [(W of solute NaF)/(W of solution)] x 100.</em>

<em></em>

W of solute NaF = 65.4 g.

W of solution = W of solute NaF + W of water = 65.4 g + 125.1 g = 190.5 g.

∴ W% = [(W of solute NaF)/(W of solution)] x 100 = [(65.4 g)/(190.5 g)] x 100 = 34.33 %.

Most of the volume of an atom is occupied by
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

An atom is made of protons and neutrons which make up the nucleus and electrons that are around the nucleus. Although almost all the mass of an atom is in the nucleus, most of the space that the atom takes up is occupied by the electrons.

In very simple terms, the electrons are in orbits around the nucleus so most of the volume of the atom is empty space within the volume that the electrons occupy. The behaviour of the electrons is often assumed to be orbits but their actual positions are not that simple.

As a final note, all atoms contain neutrons with the exception of hydrogen which can exist as one proton and one electron.
