Explanation:

A theory of chemical combination, first stated by John Dalton in 1803. It involves the following postulates:(1) Elements consist of indivisible small particles (atoms).(2) All atoms of the same element are identical; different elements have different types of atom.(3) Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed.(4) ‘Compound elements’ (i.e. compounds) are formed when atoms of different elements join in simple ratios to form ‘compound atoms’ (i.e. molecules).Dalton also proposed symbols for atoms of different elements (later replaced by the present notation using letters).

(1) Elements consist of indivisible small particles (atoms).

(2) All atoms of the same element are identical; different elements have different types of atom.

(3) Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed.

(4) ‘Compound elements’ (i.e. compounds) are formed when atoms of different elements join in simple ratios to form ‘compound atoms

The mass percent of Cl⁻ in a seawater sample is determined by titrating 25.00 mL of seawater with AgNO₃ solution, causing a prec

Serga [27]

Answer:

2.5 %

Explanation:

Considering:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Or,

$Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

Given :

For $AgNO_3$ :

Molarity = 0.2850 M

Volume = 63.30 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 63.30 × 10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of $AgNO_3$ :

$Moles=0.2850 \times {63.30\times 10^{-3}}\ moles$

Moles of $AgNO_3$ = 0.0180405 moles

Moles of $AgNO_3$ = Moles of $Cl^-$

Thus, Moles of $Cl^-$ = 0.0180405 moles

Molar mass of $Cl^-$ = 35.453 g/mol

Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 0.0180405 moles * 35.453 g/mol = 0.6396 g

Volume of sea water = 25.00 mL

Density = 1.024 g/mL

Density = Mass / Volume

Mass = Density * Volume = 1.024 g/mL * 25.00 mL = 25.6 g

$Mass\ \%=\frac{Mass_{Chloride ion}}{Total\ mass}\times 100$

$Mass\ \%=\frac{0.6396}{25.6}\times 100$

<u>Mass percent of Cl⁻ = 2.5 %</u>
