What is the molarity of a 1.44 (m/v)% solution of an HCOOOH (Formic acid)?

1 answer:

8 0

This problem is providing the mass-volume percent of a formic acid solution so its molarity is required and found to be 0.313 M after the following calculations.

<h3>Molarity</h3>

In chemistry, units of concentration provide a measurable understanding of the relationship between the relative amounts of both solute and solvent. In the case of molarity, one must relate moles of solute and liters of solution as follows:

$M=\frac{mol\ solute}{Volume\ solution \ in \ L}$

In such a way, when given this mass-volume percent of 1.44% for the formic acid in the solution, one can assume there is 100 mL of solution and 1.44 g of solute (formic acid), which means one must convert the volume to liters and the mass to moles with:

$mol\ solute=\frac{1.44g}{46.03g/mol} =0.0313mol\\\\Volume\ in \liters: 100mL*\frac{1L}{1000mL}=0.100L$

Finally, we plug in these numbers in the equation for the calculation of molarity:

$M=\frac{0.0313mol}{0.100L}\\\\M=0.313M$

What is molarity of 47.0 g KCl dissolved in enough water to give 375 mL of solution?

natita [175]

This question provides us –

Weight of $\bf KCl$ is = 47 g
Volume, V = 375 mL

__________________________________________

Molar Mass of $\bf KCl$ –

$\qquad$ $\twoheadrightarrow\bf 39.0983 \times 35.453$

$\qquad$ $\twoheadrightarrow\bf 74.5513$

<u>Using formula</u> –

$\qquad$ $\purple{\twoheadrightarrow\bf Molarity _{(Solution)} = \dfrac{ W\times 1000}{MV}}$

$\qquad$ $\twoheadrightarrow\bf Molarity _{(Solution)} = \dfrac{ 47 \times 1000}{74.5513\times 375}$

$\qquad$ $\twoheadrightarrow\bf Molarity _{(Solution)} = \dfrac{47000}{27956.7375}$

$\qquad$ $\twoheadrightarrow\bf Molarity _{(Solution)} = \cancel{\dfrac{47000}{27956.7375}}$

$\qquad$ $\twoheadrightarrow\bf Molarity _{(Solution)} = 1.68117M$

$\qquad$ $\pink{\twoheadrightarrow\bf Molarity _{(Solution)} = 1.7M}$

Henceforth, Molarity of the solution is = 1.7M

A 32.5 g iron rod, initially at 22.4 ∘C, is submerged into an unknown mass of water at 63.0 ∘C, in an insulated container. The f

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

$m_{H_2O}=39.0g$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, is possible to infer that the thermal equilibrium is governed by the following relationship:

$\Delta H_{iron}=-\Delta H_{H_2O}\\m_{iron}Cp_{iron}(T_{eq}-T_{iron})=-m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O})$

Thus, both iron's and water's heat capacities are: 0.444 and 4.18 J/g°C respectively, so one solves for the mass of water as shown below:

$m_{H_2O}=\frac{m_{iron}Cp_{iron}(T_{eq}-T_{iron})}{-Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O}} \\\\m_{H_2O}=\frac{32.5g*0.444\frac{J}{g^0C}*(59.7-22.4)^0C}{-4.18\frac{J}{g^0C}*(59.7-63.0)^0C} \\\\m_{H_2O}=39.0g$

Best regards.

Rutherford’s gold foil experiment gave evidence that an atom is mostly empty space. true false

Sholpan [36]

The given statement is true .

<h3>What is Rutherford’s gold foil experiment?</h3>

A piece of gold foil was hit with alpha particles, which have a favorable charge. Most alpha particles went right around. This showed that the gold particles were mostly space.

The Rutherford gold leaf investigation supposed that most (99%) of all the mass of an atom is in the middle of the atom, that the nucleus is very small (105 times small than the length of the atom) and that is positively captured.

For the distribution experiment, Rutherford enjoyed a metal sheet that could be as thin as practicable. Gold is the most malleable of all known metals. It can easily be converted into very thin sheets. Hence, Rutherford established a gold foil for his alpha-ray scattering experimentation.
