Answer:

Diffusion means that particles travel from a higher concentration to a lower concentration region before balance is achieved. The semi-permeable membrane is present in osmosis, so that only solvent molecules can travel freely to equalize the levels.

How many molecules of carbon dioxide are dissolved in 0.550 L of water at 25 °C if the pressure of CO2 above the water is 0.250

Grace [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of molecules of carbon dioxide gas are $2.815\times 10^{21}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{CO_2}=K_H\times p_{CO_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $0.034mol/L.atm$

$C_{CO_2}$ = molar solubility of carbon dioxide gas

$p_{CO_2}$ = pressure of carbon dioxide gas = 0.250 atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{CO_2}=0.034mol/L.atm\times 0.250atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=8.5\times 10^{-3}M$

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of carbon dioxide = $8.5\times 10^{-5}M$

Volume of solution = 0.550 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$8.5\times 10^{-3}M=\frac{\text{Moles of }CO_2}{0.550L}\\\\\text{Moles of }CO_2=(8.5\times 10^{-3}mol/L\times 0.550L)=4.675\times 10^{-3}mol$

According to mole concept:

1 mole of a compound contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of molecules

So, $4.675\times 10^{-3}$ moles of carbon dioxide will contain = $(6.022\times 10^{23}\times 4.675\times 10^{-3})=2.815\times 10^{21}$ number of molecules

Hence, the number of molecules of carbon dioxide gas are $2.815\times 10^{21}$

Contact [7]

Answer:

Half-reactions:

Cr³⁺ + 1e⁻ → Cr²⁺; Zn → Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻

Net ionic equation:

2Cr³⁺ + Zn → 2Cr²⁺ + Zn²⁺

Explanation:

The Cr³⁺ is reduced to Cr²⁺:

<h3>Cr³⁺ + 1e⁻ → Cr²⁺ -Half-reaction 1-</h3>

Zn is oxidized to Zn²⁺:

<h3>Zn → Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻ -Half-reaction 2-</h3>

Twice the reduction of Cr:

2Cr³⁺ + 2e⁻ → 2Cr²⁺

Now this reaction + Oxidation of Zn:

2Cr³⁺ + 2e⁻ + Zn → 2Cr²⁺ + Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻

<h3>2Cr³⁺ + Zn → 2Cr²⁺ + Zn²⁺ - Net ionic equation</h3>
