A student placed 10.5 g of glucose (C6H12O6) in a volumetric fla. heggsk, added enough water to dissolve the glucose by swirling

aniked [119]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of glucose in final solution is 0.420 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ .........(1)

Initial mass of glucose = 10.5 g

Molar mass of glucose = 180.16 g/mol

Volume of solution = 100 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Initial molarity of glucose}=\frac{10.5\times 1000}{180.16\times 100}\\\\\text{Initial molarity of glucose}=0.583M$

To calculate the molarity of the diluted solution, we use the equation:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

where,

$M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the molarity and volume of the concentrated glucose solution

$M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the molarity and volume of diluted glucose solution

We are given:

$M_1=0.583M\\V_1=20.0mL\\M_2=?M\\V_2=0.5L=500mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.583\times 20=M_2\times 500\\\\M_2=\frac{0.583\times 20}{500}=0.0233M$

Now, calculating the mass of final glucose solution by using equation 1:

Final molarity of glucose solution = 0.0233 M

Molar mass of glucose = 180.16 g/mol

Volume of solution = 100 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0233=\frac{\text{Mass of glucose in final solution}\times 1000}{180.16\times 100}\\\\\text{Mass of glucose in final solution}=\frac{0.0233\times 180.16\times 100}{1000}=0.420g$

Hence, the mass of glucose in final solution is 0.420 grams

why is hydrogen a nonmetal,usually placed with group 1 elements in the periodic table even though it does not show a metallic pr

Natalka [10]

Hydrogen is a nonmetal and is placed above group in the periodic table because it has ns1 electron configuration like the alkali metals. However, it varies greatly from the alkali metals as it forms cations (H+) more reluctantly than the other alkali metals.Aug 15, 2020
Electronic Configuration: 1s
At Room Temperature: Colorless & Odorless Diatomic Gas
Atomic Weight: 1.0079
