Which one is the right answer?

What are the molarity and the normality of a solution made

Nikitich [7]

Explanation:

It is known that molarity is the number of moles present in a liter of solution.

Mathematically, Molarity = $\frac{\text{no. of moles}}{\text{volume in liter}}$

Hence, calculate the molarity of given solution as follows.

Molarity of citric acid = $\frac{\text{mass of citric acid}}{\text{molar mass of citric acid}} \times \frac{1}{\text{volume of solution(L)}}$

= $\frac{25 g}{192.13 g/mol} \times \frac{1}{0.75 L}$

= 0.173 M

As citric acid is a triprotic acid so, upon dissociation it gives three hydrogen ions.

Normality = Molarity × no. of hydrogen or hydroxide ions

= 0.173 × 3

= 0.519 N

Thus, we can conclude that molarity of given solution is 0.173 and its normality is 0.519 N.

Dalton’s Law CalculationA mixture of H₂, N₂ and Ar gases is present in a steel cylinder. The total pressure within the cylinder

Zolol [24]

Answer:

A) The partial presssure of CO₂ is 167 mm Hg

B) The partial presssure of N₂ is 354 mm Hg

C) The partial presssure of Ar is 235 mm Hg

D) The partial presssure of H₂ is 86 mm Hg

Explanation:

Dalton's law of partial pressures is basically expressed by the following statement:

The total pressure of a mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of its components.

So initially we have:

$P_{T}$ = total presure of the system (675 mm Hg).

$P_{N_2}$ = partial pressure of N₂ (354 mm Hg).

$P_{Ar}$ = partial pressure of Ar (235 mm Hg).

Using Dalton's law we can find the partial pressure of H₂:

$P_{T}=P_{N_2}+P_{Ar}+P_{H_2}$

675 mm Hg=354 mm Hg + 235 mm Hg + $P_{H_2}$

$P_{H_2}$ = 675 mm Hg - 354 mm Hg - 235 mm Hg

$P_{H_2}$ =86 mm Hg

If CO₂ gas is added to the mixture, at constant temperature, and the volume is the same, the difference between the new total pressure and the previous total pressure is equal to the partial pressure of CO₂.

$P_{T}=P_{N_2}+P_{Ar}+P_{H_2}+P_{CO_2}$
