The mass of 1.72 mol of magnesium fluoride is 107 grams.
To determine the mass of 1.72 mol of magnesium fluoride, we first need the chemical formula of magnesium fluoride. Magnesium forms a +2 ion (Mg+2) and fluoride forms a -1 ion (F-1). Since all compounds formed from ions have to be electrically neutral, we need 2 fluoride ions and 1 magnesium ion. Therefore, the formula for magnesium fluoride is MgF2.
Now we need to determine the molar mass of the compound from the molar mass values from the periodic table. Let's use a table to calculate this molar mass.
Molar mass of MgF2
Element Molar Mass (g/mol) Quantity Total (g/mol)
Mg 24.31 1 24.31
F 19.00 2 38.00
Total molar mass of MgF2 = 24.31 g/mol + 38.00 g/mol = 62.31 g/mol
This is the mass of one mole of the substance. If we have 1.72 mols of it, we multiply 1.72 by 62.31.
1.72 mol (62.31 g/mol) = 107 grams
We rounded to 107 to keep the correct number of significant digits in our answer.
Answer:
a)calculated molarity of NaOH would be lower
b) calculated molarity of NaOH would be lower
c) calculated molarity of NaOH would be lower
d) calculated molarity of NaOH would be unaffected
Explanation:
Let us recall that the reaction of NaOH and HCl is as follows;
NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) ----> NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)
Since the reaction is 1:1, when the number of moles of HCl reacting with NaOH is low due to dilution, the calculated molarity of NaOH also becomes less than it's accurate value.
When 40mL of water is added to the titration flask rather than 25ml of water, the acid is more dilute hence less number of moles of acid than necessary reacts with the base thereby yielding a less than accurate value of the molarity of NaOH.
If the burette wet with water is not rinsed with NaOH solution, the concentration of the NaOH in the burette decreases due to dilution with water and a less than accuracy value is calculated for the molarity of NaOH.
If five drops of phenolphthalein is used instead of one or two drops, there is no qualms since enough phenolphthalein may be added to ensure that a sharp end point is obtained.
CFCs and their associated compounds were developed in the early 1900s as a non-toxic, non-flammable solution to other more dangerous products such as ammonia.
I think it’s to long to fit in a period??
