What is the mass percent of potassium sulfate in solution if 78g of potassium sulfate is dissolved in 500 mL of water? (The dens

ity of water is 1.00 g/mL)
Chemistry
1 answer:
Debora [2.8K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

13.5 %

Explanation:

First we<u> calculate the mass of 500 mL of water</u>, using <em>its density</em>:

  • Volume * Density = Mass
  • 500 mL * 1.00 g/mL = 500 g

Then we <u>calculate the mass percent of potassium sulfate</u>, using the formula:

Mass of Potassium Sulfate / Total Mass * 100%

  • 78 g / (78 + 500) g * 100 % = 13.5 %

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

81.26% is the percent yield

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

CaCl₂ + Na₂CO₃ → 2NaCl + CaCO₃

<em>Where 1 mole of CaCl₂ in excess of sodium carbonate produces 1 mole of calcium carbonate.</em>

<em />

To solve this question we must find the moles of CaCl2 added = Moles CaCO₃ produced (Theoretical yield). The percent yield is:

Actual yield (0.366g) / Theoretical yield * 100

<em>Moles CaCl₂ = Moles CaCO₃:</em>

0.0500L * (0.0900moles / L) = 0.00450 moles of CaCO₃

<em>Theoretical mass -Molar mass CaCO₃ = 100.09g/mol-:</em>

0.00450 moles of CaCO₃ * (100.09g / mol) = 0.450g of CaCO₃

Percent yield = 0.366g / 0.450g * 100

81.26% is the percent yield

What does 3.5 degree of unsaturation tell you?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

It means the chemical entity is a radical

Explanation:

When we talk of unsaturation, we are referring to the number of pi-bonds in a chemical entity. The alkane, alkene and alkyne organic family are used to as common examples to explain the term unsaturation.

While alkynes have 3 bonds, it must be understood that they have 2 pi bonds only and as such their degree of saturation is two.

In the case of an alkene, there is only one single pi bond and as such the degree of unsaturation is 1.

Now in this case, we have a fractional 0.5 degree of unsaturation alongside the 3 to make a total of 3.5. So what’s the issue here?

The fractional part shows that the chemical entity we are dealing with here is a radical. While the integer 3 shows that there are 3 pi-bonds, the half pi bond remaining tells us that there is a missing electron on one of the atoms involved in the chemical bonding and as such, the 1/2 extra degree of unsaturation tends to tell us this.

Kindly recall that a radical is a chemical entity within which we have at the least an unpaired electron.

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The correct appropriate will be Option 1 (Acid anhydrides are less stable than esters so the equilibrium favors the ester product.)

Explanation:

  • Acid anhydride, instead of just a carboxyl group, is typically favored for esterification. The predominant theory would be that Anhydride acid is somewhat more volatile than acid. This is favored equilibrium changes more toward the right of the whole ester structure.
  • Extremely responsive than carboxylic acid become acid anhydride as well as acyl chloride. Thus, for esterification, individuals were most favored.

The other options offered are not relevant to something like the scenario presented. So, the solution here is just the right one.
