Answer:

The concentration of the copper (II) sulfate solution is 2.06 * 10^2 μmol/L or 2.06 * 10^2 μM

Explanation:

The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute dissolved in a given volume of solution. In this case, the concentration of the copper(II) sulfate solution in micromoles per liter (symbol ) is the number of micromoles of copper(II) sulfate dissolved in each liter of solution. To calculate the micromoles of copper(II) sulfate dissolved in each liter of solution you must divide the total micromoles of solute by the number of liters of solution.

Here's that idea written as a formula: c= n/V

where c stands for concentration, n stands for the total micromoles of copper (II) sulfate and V stands for the total volume of the solution.

You're not given the volume of the solution in liters, but rather in milliliters. You can convert milliliters to liters with a unit ratio: V= 150. mL * 10^-3 L/ 1 mL = 0.150 L

Next, plug in μmol and liters into the formula to divide the total micromoles of solute by the number of liters of solution: c= 31 μmol/0.150 L = 206.66 μmol/L

Convert this number into scientific notation: 2.06 * 10^2 μmol/L or 2.06 * 10^2 μM

Which is generally stronger, intermolecular interactions or intramolecular interactions? Which is generally stronger, intermolec
Inessa [10]

Answer:

A. Intramolecular interactions are generally stronger.

B. a. Only intermolecular interactions are broken when a liquid is converted to a gas.

Explanation:

<em>A. Which is generally stronger, intermolecular interactions or intramolecular interactions?</em>

Intramolecular interactions, in which electrons are gained, lost or shared, constitute true bonds and are one or two orders of magnitude stronger than intermolecular interactions.

<em>B. Which of these kinds of interactions are broken when a liquid is converted to a gas?</em>

When a liquid vaporizes, the intermolecular attractions are broken, that is, molecules get more separated. However, true bonds are not broken which is why the molecules keep their chemical identity.

What is the electronegativity difference for a bond between potassium and iodine? A. 3.3 B. 4.6 C. 0.4 D. 1.7
user100 [1]
Iodine has an electronegativity of 2.5, and potassium has an electronegativity of 0.8, so the difference is:
2.5 - 0.8 = 1.7

Use the molar heat capacity for aluminum from table 1 to calculate the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 260.5
Nimfa-mama [501]
Unfortunately, you failed to include the table 1 from which the molar heat capacity of aluminum could have been obtained. However, as a general rule, the heat needed to raise the temperature of a certain substance by certain degrees is calculated through the equation,
                            H = mcpdT
where H is heat, m is mass, cp is specific heat capacity, and dT is change in temperature. From a reliable source, cp for aluminum is equal to 0.215 cal/g°C. Substituting this to the equation,
                               H = (260.5 g)(0.215 cal/g°C)(125°C - 0)
                                        H = 7000.94 cal
