Scientists use special tools to do their work. They gather data, or information, as they seek to learn about the world. In order to solve problems they must record data that is accurate and organized. This is an important part of the scientific method.
A. 2-Fluoro-3-Chlorohexane
B. 1-Bromo-2-Chloro-3-Fluorocyclopentane
C. 4-ethyl-5-methylhexane
D. 2,4,5-trimethylheptane
Answer:
0.5188 M or 0.5188 mol/L
Explanation:
Concentration is calculated as <u>molarity</u>, which is the number of moles per litre.
***Molarity is represented by either "M" or "c" depending on your teacher. I will use "c".
The formula for molarity is:
n = moles (unit mol)
V = volume (unit L)
<u>Find the molar mass (M) of potassium hydroxide.</u>
<u>Calculate the moles of potassium hydroxide.</u>
Carry one insignificant figure (shown in brackets).
<u>Convert the volume of water to litres.</u>
Here, carrying an insignificant figure doesn't change the value.
<u>Calculate the concentration.</u>
<= Keep an insignificant figure for rounding
<= Rounded up
<= You use the unit "M" instead of "mol/L"
The concentration of this standard solution is 0.5188 M.
The formula for density is:
D = m/v
We can use the formula to figure out the mass because we already know two of the three values (we are given the density and volume), so we only have to solve for <em>m. </em>If we plug our given values into the formula, we get:
2.70 = m / 264
Now, all we need to do is solve for <em>m</em>. The goal is to get <em>m</em> on one side of the equation, and all we have to do is multiply each side of the equation by 264:
264 × 2.70 = (m÷264) × 264
264 × 2.70 = m
m = 712.8
The mass of the piece of aluminum is 712.8 grams.
