PLEASE HELP.Which of these substances will dissolve in water?

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

A. Sugar

Explanation:

Sugar dissolves in water because of its molecular structure (C6H12O6), as the sugar is put in the water, energy is released and the polarity of the water breaks apart the molecules. However, the molecules can be obtained back by evaporating the water.

A 250 cm^3 solution containing 1,46 g of sodium chloride is added to an excess of silver nitrate solution. The reaction is given

faust18 [17]

Answer:

The mass of the precipitate that AgCl is 3.5803 g.

Explanation:

a) To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

We are given:

Mass of solute (NaCl) = 1.46 g

Molar mass of sulfuric acid = 58.5 g/mol

Volume of solution = $250 cm^3 =250 mL$

$1 cm^3= 1 ml$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{1.46g\times 1000}{58.5g/mol\times 250}\\\\\text{Molarity of solution}=0.09982 M$

0.09982 M is the concentration of the sodium chloride solution.

b) $NaCl (aq)+AgNO_3 (aq)\rightarrow AgCI(s)+NaNO_3(aq)$

Moles of NaCl = $\frac{1.46 g}{58.5 g/mol}=0.02495 mol$

according to reaction 1 mol of NaCl gives 1 mol of AgCl.

Then 0.02495 moles of NaCl will give:

$\frac{1}{1}\times 0.02495 mol=0.02495 mol$ of AgCl

Mass of 0.02495 moles of AgCl:

$0.02495 mol\times 143.5 g/mol=3.5803 g$

The mass of the precipitate that AgCl is 3.5803 g.
