A student is told to use 20.0 grams of sodium chloride to make an aqueous solution that has a concentration of 10.0 grams of sod

ium chloride per liter of solution. assuming that 20.0 grams of sodium chloride has a volume of 7.5 milliliters, about how much water will she use in making this solution?

Volume of the solution = $20.0 g NaCl * \frac{1 L solution}{10.0 g NaCl}$

= 2 L solution x $\frac{1000 mL}{1 L} =2000 mL$

Volume of solute = 7.5 mL

Volume of water (solvent) = 2000 mL - 7.5 mL = 1992.5 mL water

"An aqueous CaCl2 solution has a vapor pressure of 83.1mmHg at 50 ∘C. The vapor pressure of pure water at this temperature is 92

Lynna [10]

Answer : The the concentration of $CaCl_2$ in mass percent is, 41.18 %

Solution : Given,

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mole

Molar mass of $CaCl_2$ = 110.98 g/mole

First we have to calculate the mole fraction of solute.

According to the relative lowering of vapor pressure, the vapor pressure of a component at a given temperature is equal to the mole fraction of that component of the solution multiplied by the vapor pressure of that component in the pure state.

$\fac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}=X_B$

where,

$p^o$ = vapor pressure of the pure component (water) = 92.6 mmHg

$p_s$ = vapor pressure of the solution = 83.1 mmHg

$X_B$ = mole fraction of solute, $(CaCl_2)$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the mole fraction of solute.

$\fac{92.6-83.1}{92.6}=X_B$

$X_B=0.102$

Now we have to calculate the mole fraction of solvent (water).

As we know that,

$X_A+X_B=1\\\\X_A=1-X_B\\\\X_A=1-0.102\\\\X_A=0.898$

The number of moles of solute and solvent will be, 0.102 and 0.898 moles respectively.

Now we have to calculate the mass of solute, $(CaCl_2)$ and solvent, $(H_2O)$ .

$\text{Mass of }CaCl_2=\text{Moles of }CaCl_2\times \text{Molar mass of }CaCl_2$

$\text{Mass of }CaCl_2=(0.102mole)\times (110.98g/mole)=11.32g$

$\text{Mass of }H_2O=\text{Moles of }H_2O\times \text{Molar mass of }H_2O$

$\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.898mole)\times (18g/mole)=16.164g$

Mass of solution = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent

Mass of solution = 11.32 + 16.164 = 27.484 g

Now we have to calculate the mass percent of $CaCl_2$

$Mass\%=\frac{\text{Mass of}CaCl_2}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100=\frac{11.32g}{27.484g}\times 100=41.18\%$

Therefore, the the concentration of $CaCl_2$ in mass percent is, 41.18 %

Write the net ionic equation for the reaction of aqueous solutions of ammonium chloride and iron(III) hydroxide.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

$Fe(OH)_3(s)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}(aq)+3OH^-(aq)$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, for the reaction between aqueous solutions of ammonium chloride and iron (III) hydroxide, we have the following complete molecular reaction:

$3NH_4Cl(aq)+Fe(OH)_3(s)\rightarrow 3NH_4OH+FeCl_3$

And the full ionic equation, taking into account that the iron (III) hydroxide cannot be dissolved as it is insoluble in water:

$3NH_4^+(aq)+3Cl^-(aq)+Fe(OH)_3(s)\rightarrow 3NH_4^+(aq)+3OH^-(aq)+Fe^{3+}(aq)+3Cl^-(aq)$

Finally, the net ionic equation, considering that spectator ions are NH₄⁺, Cl⁻ as they are both the left and right side, therefore, the net ionic equation is:

$Fe(OH)_3(s)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}(aq)+3OH^-(aq)$

Best regards.
