A certain electrolyte solution contains 1 gram of salt for every 8 grams of sugar and every 200 grams of water. If the sugar to

12345 [234]

Answer:

The resulting solution contains approximately 666 g of water.

Explanation:

In the initial solution we have:

1g salt : 8g sugar : 200g water

This means that the ratios are:

$\frac{salt}{sugar} = \frac{1}{8} \\\\\frac{sugar}{water} = \frac{8}{200} =\frac{1}{25}$

In the final solution we have:

5g salt: xg sugar: yg water

The new ratios are:

$\frac{salt}{sugar} = \frac{3}{8} \\\\\frac{sugar}{water} = \frac{1}{50}$

Now we can calculate the amount of sugar in the final solution:

$\frac{salt}{sugar} = \frac{5}{x} =\frac{3}{8} \\\\X = 13.333 g$

Finally, we calculate the amount of water:

$\frac{sugar}{water} = \frac{13.333}{y} = \frac{1}{50} \\y = 666.667 g$

A student constructs a galvanic cell that has a strip of iron metal immersed in a solution of 0.1M Fe(NO3)2 as one half-cell and

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Fe

Explanation:

The cell potential is:

ΔE°cell = E°red(red) - E°red(oxid)

Where, E°red(red) is the reduction potential of the substance that is reducing, and E°red(oxid) is the reduction potential of the substance that is oxidizing. For the reaction be spontaneous and happen, ΔE°cell > 0.

The reduction takes place in the cathode, which is the negative pole, and the oxidation in the anode, which is the positive pole. So, the electrons flow from the positive pole to the negative pole (anode to cathode).

Then, if the voltmeter measured a negative potential, it means that is was attached incorrectly. So, the anode is Fe.

How does the atmosphere help to make Earth livable? Check all that apply.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

- contains oxygen

- provides warmth

- blocks harmful energy from the Sun

Explanation:

The atmosphere is crucial when it comes to providing living conditions on Earth. The gases in the atmosphere manage to balance the things just about right, so that the life can thrive. The atmosphere has oxygen, the gas that is used by pretty much every organism to be able to function. With its greenhouse gases, the atmosphere manages to trap the heat inside, thus providing warmth to the Earth. The numerous layers of the atmosphere manage to block in big portion the harmful energy from the Sun, with a special accent on the ozone layer, a layer that manages to stop most of the UV radiation.

Answer:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 6KOH —> 3K₂SO₄ + 2Fe(OH)₃

The coefficients are: 1, 6, 3, 2

Explanation:

__Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + __KOH —> __K₂SO₄ + __Fe(OH)₃

To determine the correct coefficients, we shall balance the equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + KOH —> K₂SO₄ + Fe(OH)₃

There are 2 atoms of Fe on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by writing 2 before Fe(OH)₃ as shown below:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + KOH —> K₂SO₄ + 2Fe(OH)₃

There are 6 atoms of OH on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by writing 6 before KOH as shown below:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 6KOH —> K₂SO₄ + 2Fe(OH)₃

There are 6 atoms of K on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by writing 3 before K₂SO₄ as shown below:

Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 6KOH —> 3K₂SO₄ + 2Fe(OH)₃

Now, the equation is balanced.

Therefore, the coefficients are: 1, 6, 3, 2
