8 0

Answer:

Weight is a 'force' and in the imperial system, it is measured in pounds-force (lbf or lbf). You might hear this term used together with the term 'slug'. A slug has a mass of 32.174049 lb.

Find the percent composition of OXYGEN in Manganese (III) nitrate, Mn(NO3)3.
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

59.8%

Explanation:

First find the Mr of manganese (III) nitrate.

Mr of Mn(NO₃)₃ = 54.9 + (14 × 3) + (16 × 3 × 3) = <u>240.9</u>

Since we have to find the percentage composition of oxygen, we need to find the Mr of oxygen in the compound, which is:

Mr of (O₃)₃ = (16 × 3) × 3 = <u>144</u>

Now we can find percentage composition / percentage by mass of oxygen.

% composition = \frac{Mr\ of\ oxygen\ in\ compound}{Mr\ of\ compound} × 100

% composition = \frac{144}{240.9} × 100 = <u>59.776%</u>

∴ % compostion of oxygen in maganese(III)nitrate is 59.8% (to 3 significant figures).

Compared to the normal freezing point and boiling point of water, a 1-molar solution of sugar in water will have a
marysya [2.9K]

Answer :

  • Boiling point of the sugar solution will be higher than that of water's boling point.
  • Freezing point of the sugar solution will be lower than that of water's freezing point.

Explanation:

  • Boiling point of a liquid is defined as temperature at which vapor pressure of liquid becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure.

Boiling point of solution is always higher than that of the pure solvent

Vapor pressure increases with increase in temperature which means sugar solution will be heated more to make vapor pressure equal to atmospheric pressure.

  • Freezing point is defined as temperature at which solid and liquid phase are at equilibrium or temperature at which vapor pressure of liquid becomes equal to the vapor pressure in its solid phase.

Freezing point of solution is always lower than that of the pure solvent.

Lower the temperature, lower will be the vapor pressure which sugar solution solution will get freeze at lower temperature than that of the water.

When we react a weak acid with a strong base of equal amounts and concentration, the component of the reaction that will have th
andriy [413]

Answer:

d. the conjugate base of the weak acid

Explanation:

The strong base (BOH) is completely dissociated in water:

BOH → B⁺ + OH⁻

The resulting conjugate acid (OH⁻) is a weak acid, so it remains in solution as OH⁻ ions.

By other hand, the weak acid (HA) is only slightly dissociated in water:

HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻

The resulting conjugate base (A⁻) is a weak base. Thus, it reacts with H⁺ ions from water to form HA, increasing the concentration of OH⁻ ions in the solution.

Therefore, the resulting solution will have a pH > 7 (basic).
