it is a solute and a solvent
There is only one element with atomic mass 3 and it’s lithium and it only has 3 protons and 4 neutrons
You are given two beakers, distilled water, two hot plates, two thermometers and salt. These materials are enough in order to test the effect of salt in the boiling point water. To do this, you set up two beakers. In one of the beakers, you add pure distilled water and nothing else. For the other beaker, you put a solution of salt and water. You place these beakers on separate hot plates and place inside the beakers the thermometers. You heat these substances until they boil and then you measure the boiling points of the substances. You would observe that the boiling point of the solution would have a higher boiling point than the pure liquid.
need 0.500 x 0.125 = 0.0625 moles of NaOH. The molecular weight is 23+16+1 = 40, so 0.0625 x 40 = 2.5 grams will do the trick.
20 grams of borax contains (20.0g) / (201 g mol -1) =0.10 mol of borax.
Therefore 0.40 mol of borax
