Why concentrated HNO3 is 69% by mass of nitric acid? Please explain what it means.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lyrx [107]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<u>The percentage by mass of a substance in a mixture is the ratio of the mass of the substance and the mass of the entire mixture.</u>

<em>Hence, when concentrated HNO3 is said to be 69% by mass of nitric acid, it means that the solution of the acid has 69% HNO3 and 31% water in terms of mass. More specifically, 100 g of the solution of the acid would contain 69 g of HNO3 and 31 g of water respectively,</em>

At 25°c, the vapor in equilibrium with a solution containing carbon disulfide and acetonitrile has a total pressure of 250. torr
Sonbull [250]
For this question, we apply the Raoult's Law. The formula is written below:

P = P*x
where
P is the partial pressure
P* is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent
x is the mole fraction

The partial pressure is solved as follows:
P = Total P*x = (250 torr)(0.857) = 214.25 torr
Hence,
214.25 = (361 torr)(x)
<em>x = 0.593 or 59.3%</em>

1. How many moles of magnesium is 3.01 x 10^23 atoms of magnesium?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

<h2>0.5 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{3.01 \times  {10}^{23} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  =  \frac{3.01}{6.02}  = 0.5 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.5 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

An interaction of systems allows for the body to warm itself when it is cold. Which processes help the body warm up when it is c
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

shivering

hair on the body standing up

goosebump forming

Explanation:

The processes that help the body warm-up from the available options include <em>the shivering of the body</em>, <em>formation of goosebumps on the skin</em>, and <em>the standing up of hairs on the body.</em>

When the temperature of the body falls below the setpoint or the environment is cold, a homeostatic response is triggered and a signal is sent from the control center to the muscles of the body. <u>The muscles start shaking in order to generate heat to raise the temperature of the body</u>. At the same time, <u>the tiny muscles at the base of the hairs on the skin contract and pull the hairs erect, causing goosebumps in the process.</u>

a helium balloon has a volume of 2.95 liters at 25 c. the volume of the ballon decreased to 2.25 l after it is placed outside on
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The outside temperature is -45.8°C

Explanation:

When a gas keeps on constant its moles and its pressure, we can assume that volume will be increased or decreased as the T° (absolute T° in K).

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

2.95L/298K = 2.25L / T2

(2.95L/298K ) . T2 = 2.25L

T2 = 2.25L . 298K / 2.95L

T2 = 227.2K

T°K - 273 = T°C

227.2K - 273 = -45.8°C
