Answer:

~1.417M

Explanation:

Molarity=(number of moles of solute)/(litres of solution)

In this case, we need to find moles of potassium bromide.

Mass=25.3g

Molar mass= 119g/mol

moles=(mass/molar mass)

        =(25.3)/(119)

        =0.2126moles of potassium bromide

Molarity=(0.2126)/(150/1000)

       ~1.417M

Hope this helps:)

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf molarity \approx 1.42 \ M \ KBr}}

Explanation:

Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter.

molarity= \frac{moles \ of \ solute}{ liters \ of \ solution}}

<h3>1. Find Formula for Compound </h3>

We have the compound potassium bromide. Potassium (K) has an oxidation state of +1 and bromine (Br) has -1. They bond in a 1:1 ratio, so the formula is <u>KBr.</u>

<h3>2. Convert Grams to Moles</h3>

We are given the amount of solute in grams, but we need moles. To convert, we use the molar mass. These values are found on the Periodic Table. They are the same as the atomic masses, but the units are grams per moles (g/mol) instead of atomic mass units (amu).

Look up the individual element's molar mass.

  • Potassium: 39.098 g/mol
  • Bromine: 79.90 g/mol

The formula of KBr contains no subscripts, so we can add the molar masses.

  • KBr: 39.098+ 79.90 =118.99 g/mol

Use the molar mass as a ratio.

\frac {118.998 \ g\ KBr}{ 1 \ mol \ KBr}

We want to convert 25.3 grams, so we multiply by that value.

25.3 \ g\ KBr*\frac {118.998 \ g\ KBr}{ 1 \ mol \ KBr}

Flip the ratio so the units of grams of KBr cancel.

25.3 \ g\ KBr*\frac{ 1 \ mol \ KBr}{118.998 \ g\ KBr}

25.3*\frac{ 1 \ mol \ KBr}{118.998} = 0.2126086153\ mol \ KBr

<h3>3. Convert Milliliters to Liters </h3>

Molarity uses liters, so we must convert the 150 milliliters. 1 liter contains 1000 milliliters.

\frac{1 \ L }{1000 \ ml}

150 \ mL *\frac{1 \ L }{1000 \ ml}

150  *\frac{1 \ L }{1000}= 0.150 \ L

<h3>4. Calculate Molarity </h3>

Now we have the moles of solute and liters of solution, so we can find molarity.

molarity= \frac{ moles \ of \ solute}{liters \ of \ solution}

molarity= \frac{0.2126086153 \ mol \ KBr}{ 0.150 \ L}

molarity = 1.417390768\ mol KBr/L

The original measurements had 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the hundredth place. The 7 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 1 to a 2.

molarity \approx 1.42 \ mol KBr/L

1 mole per liter is equal to 1 Molar (M), so we must convert the units.

molarity \approx 1.42 \ M \ KBr

Three other application of Bernoulli's principle ?
Makovka662 [10]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Bernoulli's Theorem in a general sense relates the weight, speed, and rise in a moving fluid (liquid or gas), the compressibility and consistency (internal grinding) of which are insignificant and the flood of which is predictable, or laminar.

(1): We can discover the speed of Efflux of a fluid.

This is given by v= sqrt (2gh), where the fluid is turning out from an opening in a vessel at profundity h from free fluid surface. This condition is known as Torricelli's hypothesis.

(2): Vena Contracta: The fluid stream from gap contracts at a separation minimal outside the opening to a neck, called Vena Contracta.

The territory of cross-segment of a fly is littler than a zone of opening. From this reality, we can discover the coefficient of withdrawal.

(3) : Bernoulli's standard is utilized in the development of Venturimeter, an instrument for estimation of measure of a stream of a fluid through a pipe.

Molecular polarity has a direct effect on the behavior of molecular compounds. The attractive forces between polar molecules are
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Stronger

Greater

Higher

Explanation:

Molecules are held together by intermolecular forces. These are forces that act between molecules in a particular state matter. Intermolecular forces depend on the nature of the molecule.

For polar molecules, the intermolecular forces are stronger thus it takes more energy to separate them leading to a higher boiling point of polar molecules irrespective of their molecular mass.

At what Celsius temperature does 0.750 mol of an ideal gas occupy a volume of 35.9 L at 114 kPa?
shepuryov [24]

382.85  Celsius is the temperature does 0.750 moles of an ideal gas occupy a volume of 35.9 L at 114 kPa.

Explanation:

Given data:

number of moles of the gas  = 0.75 moles

volume of the gas = 35.9 liters

pressure of the gas = 114 KPa or 1.125 atm

R = 0.0821 latm/moleK

temperature of the gas T = ?

The equation used to calculate temperature from above data is ideal gas law equation.

the equation is :

PV = nRT

T = \frac{PV}{nR}

Putting the values in the above rewritten equation:

T = \frac{1.125 X 35.9}{0.75 X 0.0821}

T = 655.9 K

To convert kelvin into celsius, formula used is

K = 273.15+ C

putting the values in the equation

C = 656 - 273.15

   = 382.85  Celsius
