Answer:

Explanation:

Radiation can either kill cells or damage the DNA within them, which damages their ability to reproduce and can eventually lead to cancer. However, it may be useful because it minimi damage to DNA

The density of acetonitrile (CH3CN) is 0.786 g/mL, and the density of methanol (CH3OH) is 0.791 g/mL. A solution is made by diss
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  0.22

Explanation:

Data

Acetonitrile (CH₃CN) density = 0.786 g/ml

Methanol (CH₃OH) density = 0.791 g/ml

Volume of CH₃OH = 22 ml

Volume of CH₃CN = 98.4 ml

Process

1.- Calculate the mass of Acetonitrile and the mass of Methanol

density = mass/ volume

mass = density x volume

Acetonitrile

        mass = 0.786 x 98.4

                  = 77.34 g

Methanol

        mass = 0.791 x 22

                  = 17.40 g

2.- Calculate the moles of the reactants

Acetonitrile molar mass = (12 x 2) + (14 x 1) + (3 x 1)

                                        = 24 + 14 + 3

                                        = 41 g

Methanol molar mass = (12 x 1) + (4 x 1) + (16 x 1)

                                      = 12 + 4 + 16

                                      = 32 g

Moles of Acetonitrile

                     41 g ----------------- 1 mol

                      77.34g ------------  x

                      x = (77.34 x 1) / 41

                      x = 1.89 moles

Moles of Methanol

                      32 g -------------- 1 mol

                       17.40 g ---------  x

                       x = (17.40 x 1)/32

                       x = 0.54 moles

3.- Calculate the mole fraction of Methanol

Total number of moles = 1.89 + 0.54

                                       = 2.43

Mole fraction = moles of Methanol / total number of moles

Mole fraction = 0.54/ 2.43

Mole fraction = 0.22

What is the molarity of an HCl solution if 37.0 mL is completely titrated by 56.0 mL of an NaOH solution whose concentration is
Nata [24]

Answer:

Option A. 0.378M

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Molarity of acid (Ma) =..?

Volume of acid (Va) = 37.0 mL

Volume of base (Vb) = 56.0 mL

Molarity of base (Mb) = 0.250 M

Next, we shall write the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

HCl + NaOH —> NaCl + H2O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of the acid (nA) = 1

The mole ratio of the base (nB) = 1

Finally, we can determine the molarity of the acid as shown below :

MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB

Ma x 37 / 0.25 x 56 = 1

Cross multiply

Ma x 37 = 0.25 x 56

Divide both side by 37

Ma = 0.25 x 56 /37

Ma = 0.378M

Therefore, the molarity of the acid, HCl is 0.378M

For this case, Only 1 isotope would be present, i.e. the principal element with mass M=13 and then one isotope at mass M+2. <span>We are assuming that the principal element is the one that is the lowest mass - by definition, an isotope is one where there are additional neutrons - hence the mass increases, but the proton count is the same.
