A solution has the 23.22% mass/volume of a particular solvent what is the mass of solute dissolved in 2.5 liter of solvent?
valina [46]
23.22%:

2.5 L in mL : 2.5 * 1000 = 2500 mL

23.22 g ----------- 100 mL
   ? g -------------  2500 mL

m = 2500 * 23.22 / 100

m = 58050 / 100

m = 580,5 g

A solution has a volume of 250 ml and contains 0.70 mol Nacl what is the molarity
dem82 [27]
First convert mL into liters:

1 L = 1000 mL

250 mL / 1000 = 0.25 L

M = n / V

M = 0.70 / 0.25

M = 2.8 mol/L⁻¹

hope this helps!

If an exothermic chemical reaction occurs, the surroundings become warmer. Where does this energy come from?
Elena L [17]

It comes to from the chemical reaction itself. Exothermic reaction release heat because the energy level of the products is lower than that of the reactants.  Therefore, the net enthalpy change of the reaction is negative (-), meaning heat or light (or any other form of energy) is released into the environment. An example of an exothermic reaction is the combustion of fuel.

Fluoride ion is poisonous in relatively low amounts: 0.2 g of F− per 70 kg of body weight can cause death. Nevertheless, in orde
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

200 L per day

Explanation:

If there is 1 mg of F- per L of water, we can calculate the volume for 2 g like this:

1) Converse the toxic mass of fluoride to miligrams

1 g ------- 1000 mg

0.2 g ----  X

X = 200 mg

2) Calculate the liters of fluoridated drinking water that a person can consume to reach 200 mg

1 mg -------- 1 L

200 mg ---- X

x = 200 L
