Answer:

2.1 kg of water

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Moles of lithium bromide (solute): 4.3 moles

Molality of the solution (m): 2.05 m (2.05 mol/kg)

Mass of water (solvent): ?

Step 2: Calculate the mass of water required

Molality is equal to the moles of solute divided by the kilograms of solvent.

m = moles of solute/kilograms of solvent

kilograms of solvent = moles of solute/m

kilograms of solvent = 4.3 mol /(2.05 mol/kg) = 2.1 kg

When the equation Sn + HNO₃ → SnO₂ + NO₂ + H₂O is balanced in acidic solution, what is the smallest whole-number coefficient for

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given reaction we first assign the oxidation state for each species:

$Sn^0 + H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 + N^{4+}O^{2-}_2 + H^+_2O^-$

Whereas the half reactions are:

$Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-\\\\H^++H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +1e^-\rightarrow N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+H_2O$

Next, we exchange the transferred electrons:

$1\times(Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-)\\\\4\times (H^++H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +1e^-\rightarrow N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+H_2O)\\\\\\Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-\\\\4H^++4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +4e^-\rightarrow 4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+4H_2O$

Afterwards, we add them to obtain:

$Sn^0+2H_2O+4H^++4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+4H_2O$

By adding and subtracting common terms we obtain:

$Sn^0+4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+2H_2O$

Finally, by removing the oxidation states we have:

$Sn + 4HNO_3 \rightarrow SnO_2 + 4NO_2 + 2H_2O$

Therefore, the smallest whole-number coefficient for Sn is 1.

Regards.

Does the mass of water increase or decrease when it changes to ice

NikAS [45]

Answer:

The mass stays the same only volume changes, the volume decreases

Explanation:

The ice shrinks (decreases volume) and becomes more dense. The weight will not (and cannot) change.

What is the volume of an oxygen tank if it contains 12 moles of oxygen at 273 K under 75 kPa?

Zina [86]

Given:
n = 12 moles of oxygen
T = 273 K, temperature
p = 75 kPa, pressure

Use the ideal gas law, given by
$pV=nRT \\ or \\ V= \frac{nRT}{p}$
where
V = volume
R = 8.3145 J/(mol-K), the gas constant

Therefore,
$V= \frac{(12\,mol)(8.3145\, \frac{J}{mol-K} )(273\,K)}{75 \times 10^{3} \, Pa}= 0.3632\,m^{3}$

Answer: 0.363 m³
