distilled water

Explanation:

Some students investigated osmosis in raw potato sticks. The students measured the mass of three potato sticks using an electronic balance. The students left each potato stick in one of the three different liquids for 5 hours:i. distilled water. ii. dilute sodium chloride solution. iii. concentrated sodium chloride solution. After 5 hours they measured the mass again and calculated the change in mass. 1. Predict which of the liquids would cause the largest decrease in mass of a potato stick. 2. After the experiment, the students noticed that the potato stick with the lowest mass was soft and floppy. Explain why the potato stick had become soft and floppy. 3. The students followed the same experimental procedure with boiled potato sticks and found no overall change in mass in any of the solutions. Suggest why the mass of the boiled potato sticks remained the same.

In the reaction MgCl2 + 2KOH Mg(OH)2+ 2KCI, if 3 moles MgCh are added to 4 moles KOH, what determines how much Mg(OH)2 is made?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:-

KOH determines how much Mg(OH)2 is made.

2 mol of Mg(OH)2 formed

Explanation:-

The balanced equation is

MgCl2 + 2KOH --> Mg(OH)2+ 2KCI,

From seeing the coefficients we notice

2 mol of KOH reacts with 1 mol of MgCl2

4 mol of KOH reacts with 1 x 4 / 2 = 2 mol of MgCl2

3 moles of MgCl2 was added but only 2 mol react.

So we see there is excess MgCl2 .

Hence KOH is the limiting reactant.

So KOH determines how much Mg(OH)2 is made.

We see from the balanced chemical equation,

2 mol of KOH gives 1 mol of Mg(OH)2.

4 mol of KOH will give 1 x 4 /2 = 2 mol of Mg(OH)2.

5. A gas occupies 2000. Lat 100.0 K and exerts a pressure of 100.0 kPa. What volume will
Anna [14]

Answer:

4000 L

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This include the following:

Initial volume (V1) = 2000 L.

Initial temperature (T1) = 100 K.

Initial pressure (P1) = 100 kPa.

Final temperature (T2) = 400 K.

Final pressure (P2) = 200 kPa.

Final volume (V2) =..?

Step 2:

Determination of the new volume of the gas.

The new volume of the gas can be obtained by using the general gas equation as follow:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

100 x 2000/100 = 200 x V2/400

Cross multiply to express in linear form.

100 x 200 x V2 = 100 x 2000 x 400

Divide both side by 100 x 200

V2 = (100 x 2000 x 400)/(100 x 200)

V2 = 4000 L

Therefore, the new volume of the gas is 4000 L
