In 250 mL of volumetric flask add 0.975875 grams of CaF_2 and dissolve it in the 250 mL of water.

Given:

The solid of calcium fluoride.

To prepare:

The 250 mL solution of 0.100 M of fluoride ions from solid calcium fluoride.

Method:

Molarity of the fluoride ion solution needed = M = 0.100 M

The volume of the fluoride ion solution needed = V = 250 mL

1 mL = 0.001L\\V=250 mL=250\times 0.001 L=0.250 L

The moles of fluoride ion needed = n

According to the definition of molarity:

M=\frac{n}{V}\\0.100M=\frac{n}{0.250 L}\\n=0.100M\times 0.250 L=0.025 mol

Moles of fluoride ion = 0.025 mol

We know that solid calcium fluoride dissolves in water to give calcium ions and fluoride ions.

CaF_2(s)\rightarrow Ca^{2+}(aq)+2F^-(aq)

According to reaction, 2 moles of fluoride ions are obtained from 1 mole of calcium fluoride, then 0.025 moles of fluoride ions will be obtained from:

=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.025 mol=0.0125 \text{mol of } CaF_2

Moles of calcium fluoride = 0.0125 mol

Mass of calcium fluoride needed to prepare the solution :

=0.0125 mol\times 78.07 g/mol=0.975875 g

Preparation:

  • Weight 0.975875 grams of calcium fluoride
  • Add weighed calcium fluoride to a volumetric flask of the labeled volume of 250 mL.
  • Now add a small amount of water to dissolve the calcium fluoride completely.
  • After this add more water up to the mark of the volumetric flask of volume 250 mL.

ivanzaharov [21]

Selena can change from burning fossil fuel in her home to using solar energy.

<h3>What causes climate changes?</h3>

Climate change is caused by the release of the greenhouse gases which is gotten through the use and burning of fossil fuels such as coal.

The use of solar panels and solar energy by Selena in her house can help adjust the climate changes by decreasing the amount of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere.

What is not represented by a balanced chemical equation?
astraxan [27]

Answer is: 4) The same subscripts are on each side of the equation.

For example, balanced chemical reaction:

2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO.

1) The same number of atoms is on each side of the equation: two magnesium atoms and two oxgen atoms.

2) The formulas for all substances are correct: in magnesium oxide (MgO), magnesium has oxidation number +2 and oxygen -2, so formula is good, because compound must be neutral.

3) The same mass is represented on each side of the equation: because there is same number of atoms, the mass is the same.

4) The same subscripts are on each side of the equation: oxygen does not have same subscripts.
