Answer:

Explanation:

Sodium is both an electrolyte and mineral. It helps keep the water (the amount of fluid inside and outside the body's cells) and electrolyte balance of the body. Sodium is also important in how nerves and muscles work. Most of the sodium in the body (about 85%) is found in blood and lymph fluid.

Write the net ionic equation for the following molecular equation Mg (s) +Snso (aq) Mgso4 (aq) Sn(s) Use the lowest possible coe

Simora [160]

Answer:

Mg(s) + Sn²⁺(aq) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + Sn(s)

Explanation:

Let's consider the following molecular equation.

Mg(s) + SnSO₄(aq) ⇄ MgSO₄(aq) + Sn(s)

The full ionic equation includes al the ions and the species that do not dissociate in water.

Mg(s) + Sn²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) + Sn(s)

The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction (not spectator ions) and the species that do not dissociate in water.

Mg(s) + Sn²⁺(aq) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + Sn(s)

How many liters of a 3 M NaOH stock solution would you need to make 552 mL of a 105 mM NaOH dilution

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

0.01932 L

Explanation:

First we convert 105 mM to M:

105 mM / 1000 = 0.105 M

Next we convert 552 mL to L:

552 mL / 1000 = 0.552 L

Then we use the following equation:

C₁V₁=C₂V₂

Where:

C₁ = 3 M

V₁ = ?

C₂ = 0.105 M

V₂ = 0.552 L

We input the given data:

3 M * V₁ = 0.105 M * 0.552 L

And solve for V₁:

V₁ = 0.01932 L

Use pv=nrT

where p is the pressure,
v is the volume,
n is the number of mole (which can be equal to mass /mr),
T is the temperature in kelvin,
and r is (molar constant) = 8.31 (units)
