Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ 214 \ g }}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the mass of a given number of water (H₂O) molecules.

<h3>1. Convert Molecules to Moles</h3>

First, we convert molecules to moles. We will use Avogadro's Number or 6.022 × 10²³. This is the number of particles (atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are molecules of water. Therefore,<u> there are 6.022 ×10²³ molecules of water in 1 mole of water</u>.

We will convert using dimensional analysis, so we must set up a ratio using the underlined information.

\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ H_2O}

We are converting 7.15 × 10²⁴ molecules of water to moles, so we multiply the ratio by that value.

7.15 \times 10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2O*\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ H_2O}

Flip the ratio so the units of molecules of water cancel each other out.

7.15 \times 10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2O*\frac {1 \ mol \ H_2O} {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2O}

7.15 \times 10^{24} *\frac {1 \ mol \ H_2O} {6.022 \times 10^{23} }

\frac {7.15 \times 10^{24}} {6.022 \times 10^{23} } \ mol \ H_2O

11.87313185\ mol \ H_2O

<h3>2. Convert Moles to Grams </h3>

Next, we convert moles to grams. We will use the molar mass. This is the mass of 1 mole of a substance. These values are found on the Periodic Table. They are equivalent to the atomic masses, but the units are grams per mole instead of atomic mass units.

Look up the molar masses of the individual elements in water: hydrogen and oxygen.

  • H: 1.008 g/mol
  • O: 15.999 g/mol

There is a subscript of 2 after H, so there 2 moles of hydrogen in 1 mole of water. Multiply the molar mass by 2 before adding oxygen's molar mass.

  • H₂: 1.008 * 2 = 2.016 g/mol
  • H₂O: 2.016 + 15.999 = 18.015 g/mol

We convert using dimensional analysis again and set up another ratio.

\frac {18.015 \ g \ H_2O}{ 1 \ mol \ H_2O}

Multiply by the number of moles we just calculated.

11.87313185 \ mol \ H_2O *\frac {18.015 \ g \ H_2O}{ 1 \ mol \ H_2O}

The units of moles of water cancel.

11.87313185  *\frac {18.015 \ g \ H_2O}{ 1 }

213.8944703 \ g \ H_2O

The original measurement of molecules has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the one place. The 8 in the tenths place tells us to round the 3 up to a 4.

214 \ g \ H_2O

There are approximately <u>214 grams of water</u> and <u>choice B</u> is correct.

Answer:

B. 214.02

Explanation:

1 mol of water weighs 18.015 gm and contains 6.023 × 10²³ molecules

From question, We have 7.15 × 10²⁴ molecules

Dividing we get (7.15 × 10 ²⁴) ÷ ( 6.023 × 10²³) = 11.871 molecules

Now, Weight of water = 11.871 × 18.015 = 213.85 which is nearer to option B

Why is density referred to as a characteristic property of matter?
amm1812

Answer : Density of any particular matter remains the same at any concentration at any weight.


Density does not varies with the concentration. The formula for density is mass / volume.


So if the mass changes the density will change accordingly, also if the volume changes the density will get changed.


because, of the above reasons density is referred as a characteristic property of matter.

During the experiment a student precipitated and digested the BaSO4. After allowing the precipitate to settle, they added a few
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Incomplete precipitation of barium sulfate

Explanation:

The student has precipitated and digested the barium sulfate on his/her side. But on the addition of BaCl_2 in the solution, the solution become cloudy. This happened because incomplete precipitation of barium sulfate by the student. When BaCl_2 is added, there are still sulfate ions present in the solution with combines with BaCl_2 and forms BaSO_4 and the formation of this precipitate makes the solution cloudy.

Which of the following will occur soon after a population of prey increases slightly in size?
Lady bird [3.3K]
Your answer is D predator population will increase greatly. That's because if there's more prey there will be more food and its good for the predators to produce more because they don't got to worry about food. Speaking how they preys population grew.

So your answer is D.

When aqueous ammonia is added to a solution containing Bi3+ and Cu2+ cations, ____________ occurs. A. Reduction to black bismuth
MissTica

Answer:

C. Precipitation of white bismuth hydroxide.

Explanation:

When aqueous ammonia is added to a solution that has Bi3+ and CU2+ cations, what we would have as a chemical result is the precipitation of white Bismuth hydroxide.

The chemical reaction for this can be written as,

Bi3+ + 2NH3 + 3H2O ⇌ Bi(OH)3(s) + 3NH4

Thank you!
