Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A carbohydrate is formed from carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. These three elements are combined in every carbohydrate.

Even though carbohydrates are composed of only these three atoms, the number of atoms of these elements in each carbohydrate as well as the spatial arrangement of these atoms in each carbohydrate is not the same.

This means that different carbohydrates contain different number of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen atoms which are arranged in different ways in space. This gives room for the existence of many different types of carbohydrates all consisting of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms.

25. How many ml of a .0023M strontium hydroxide solution are needed to completely react 15.0 mL of 0.012M hydrochloric acid?
Mariana [72]

Answer: There are 78.26 mL of a 0.0023M strontium hydroxide solution are needed to completely react 15.0 mL of 0.012M hydrochloric acid.

Explanation:

Given: M_{1} = 0.0023 M,          V_{1} = ?

V_{2} = 15.0 mL,           M_{2} = 0.012 M

Formula used to calculate volume of strontium hydroxide solution is as follows.

M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}\\0.0023 M \times V_{1} = 0.012 M \times 15.0 mL\\V_{1} = 78.26 mL

Thus, we can conclude that there are 78.26 mL of a 0.0023M strontium hydroxide solution are needed to completely react 15.0 mL of 0.012M hydrochloric acid.
