Makovka662 [10]
The rate of dissolution of a solid solute into the solution decreases when you stop stirring it. Generally, stirring increases the dissolution rate of a solid into a solution. An example is coffee with sugar, the sugar dissolves faster when stirred versus when left to dissolve on its own.

Calculate the percentage of the void space out of the total volume occupied by 1 mole of water molecules. The density of water i
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The percentage of the void space out of the total volume occupied is 93.11%

Explanation:

A mole of water contains 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.

To calculate the volume of a mole of water, we calculate 2 times the volume of the hydrogen atom and 1 times the volume of the oxygen atom

Let's calculate this one after the other.

For the hydrogen, formula for the volume will be

V_{hydrogen = 2 × 4/3 × π × r_{H}^{3}

where r_{H}^{3} = 37 pm which is read as 37 picometer (1 picometer = 10^-12 m) = 37 × 10^{-12} meters

Volume of the hydrogen = 8/3 × (37 × 10^-12)^3 = 4.05 * 10^-31

we multiply this by the avogadro's number = 6.02 * 10^23

= 4.05 * 10^-31 * 6.02 * 10^23 = 2.6 * 10^-8 m^3

We do same for thr oxygen, but this time we do not multiply the volume of the oxygen by 2 as we have only one atom of oxygen

Volume of oxygen = 4/3 * π * (73 * 10^-12) ^3 * avogadro's number = 9.81 * 10^-7 m^3

adding both volumes together, we have 1.24 * 10^-6 m^3 or simply 1.24 ml ( 0.01 m = 1 ml)

Dividing the molar mass of one mole of water by its density, we can get the volume of 1 mole of water

= (18g/mol)/(1 g/ml) = 18 ml/mol

Now we proceed to calculate the volume of void = Total volume - volume of molecule = 18 - 1.24 = 16.76 ml

Now, the percentage of void = volume of void/total volume * 100%

= 16.76/18 * 100% = 93.11%
