<span>The answer to your question is the 3rd option </span>
This question requires the knowledge of density.
The density of ethyl alcohol = 789 kg m⁻³
The density of water = 1000 kg m⁻³
Density = Mass / Volume
By applying ethyl alcohol,
789 kg m⁻³ = Mass / 0.9 m³
Mass = 710.1 kg
hence the mass of 0.9 m³ ethyl alcohol is 710.1 kg.
Then by applying water,
1000 kg m⁻³ = 710.1 kg / Volume
Volume = 0.7101 m³
= 0.7 m³
hence the equal water volume is 0.7 m³
Mass of CO₂ evolved : 0.108 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
1.205g sample, 36% MgCO3 and 44% K2CO3
Required
mass of CO2
Solution
0.36 x 1.205 g=0.4338 g
mass C in MgCO₃(MW MgCO₃=84 g/mol, Ar C = 12/gmol)
= (12/84) x 0.4338
= 0.062 g
0.44 x 1.205 g = 0.5302 g
Mass C in K₂CO₃(MW=138 g/mol) :
= (12/138) x 0.5302
= 0.046 g
Total mass Of CO₂ :
= 0.062 + 0.046
= 0.108 g
The correct answer among the choices given is option B. Radioisotopes are isotopes that emit radiation because they have unstable nuclei. These are radioactive isotopes of an element. They are defined as atoms that contain an unstable combination of neutrons and protons.
