Explain how the solubility of water is useful in maintaining various life processes.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Radda [10]2 years ago
3 0
Water's extensive capability to dissolve a variety of molecules has earned it the designation of “universal solvent,” and it is this ability that makes water such an invaluable life-sustaining force. On a biological level, water's role as a solvent helps cells transport and use substances like oxygen or nutrients.

Answer:

The mass of tin is 164 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Specific heat heat of tin = 0.222 J/g°C

The initial temeprature of tin = 80.0 °C

Mass of water = 100.0 grams

The specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Initial temperature = 30.0 °C

The final temperature = 34.0 °C

Step 2: Calculate the mass of tin

Heat lost = heat gained

Qlost = -Qgained

Qtin = -Qwater

Q = m*c*ΔT

m(tin)*c(tin)*ΔT(tin) = -m(water)*c(water)*ΔT(water)

⇒with m(tin) = the mass of tin = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with c(tin) = the specific heat of tin = 0.222J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(tin) = the change of temperature of tin = T2 - T1 = 34.0°C - 80.0°C = -46.0°C

⇒with m(water) = the mass of water = 100.0 grams

⇒with c(water) = the specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(water) = the change of temperature of water = T2 - T1 = 34.0° C - 30.0 °C = 4.0 °C

m(tin) * 0.222 J/g°C * -46.0 °C = -100.0g* 4.184 J/g°C * 4.0 °C

m(tin) =  163.9 grams ≈ 164 grams

The mass of tin is 164 grams

When 1 mol of sodium nitrate, is dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, 40 kJ of heat energy is absorbed. What is the drop in
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

 1.0  ° C

Explanation:

The molar mass for Sodium Nitrate NaNO₃ = (23+14+(16×3)) = 85

Number of moles of NaNO₃  = mass of NaNO₃ /molar mass of NaNO₃

⇒ 17/85 = 1.38 moles

Since 1 mole of NaNO₃  dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, 40 kJ of heat energy is absorbed.

when 1.38 mole of NaNO₃  dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water, x kJ of heat energy is absorbed..

Then; x kJ of 1.38 mole of NaNo₃ = 1.38 × 40 kJ  =55.2 kJ of heat absorbed.

Using the relation : Q = mcΔT  to determine the temperature drop ; we get:

55.2 = 17 × 4 (ΔT)

55.2  = 68 ΔT

ΔT= 0.8 ° C

ΔT ≅  1.0  ° C

Therefore, the drop in temperature when 17.0g of sodium nitrate is dissolved in 1 cubic decimeter of water is   1.0  ° C

-You wish to make a 0.203 M hydrochloric acid solution from a stock solution of 6.00 M hydrochloric acid. How much concentrated
lubasha [3.4K]

For all three questions, we will use the fact that

  • molarity = (moles of solute)/(liters of solution)

1) For 175 mL of solution at 0.203 M, this means that:

  • 0.203 = (moles of solute)/0.175
  • moles of solute = 0.035523 mol

Considering the hydrochloric acid solution, if we have 0.035523 mol, then:

  • 6.00 = 0.035523/(liters of solution)
  • liters of solution = 0.035523/6.00 = 0.0059205 = <u>5.92 mL (to 3 sf)</u>

<u />

2) If there is 20.3 mL = 0.0203 L, then:

  • 8.20 = (moles of solute)/0.0203
  • moles of solute = 0.16646 mol

This means that the molarity of the diluted solution is:

  • 0.16646/(0.200) = <u>0.832 M (to 3 sf)</u>

<u />

3) If we need 1.50 L of 0.700 M solution, then:

  • 0.700 = (moles of solute)/1.50
  • moles of solute = 1.05 mol

Considering the 9.36 M acid solution, from which we need 1.05 mol of perchloric acid from,

  • 9.36 = 1.05/(liters of solution)
  • liters of solution = 1.05/9.36, which is 0.11217948717949 L, or <u>112 mL (to 3 sf)</u>

Determine the volume of a substance that has a density of 1.84 g/ml and a mass of 12 grams
vazorg [7]
Hey there!:

density = mass / volume

1.84 g/mL =  12 g / V

V =  12 / 1.84

V = 6.521 mL

hope this helps!

Calcium forms ions with a charge of +2. Iodine forms ions with a charge of -1. Which of the following would represent an ionic c
astra-53 [7]

 The   formula that would represent an ionic  compound  that is composed of calcium and iodide ions  is   CaI2

 Explanation

Ionic compound  CaI₂ is formed  when Calcium form cation ( <em>a positively charged ion</em>) by losing 2 electrons while two iodine atoms form  anion ( <em>a negatively charged ion</em>)  by  gaining one electron each.

When writing down   formula of ionic compound, the formula  of cation  is written  first followed by anion  formula. therefore  Ca is written  first  followed by I.

The numeric subscript 2 after I(iodine) indicate that 2 atoms of iodine are involved  in bonding.
