Answer:

Look below

Explanation:

The formula for density is:

$Density=\frac{mass}{volume}$

Therefore in order to find the density of a solid, you must find the mass and the volume first.

To find the mass, you can use a scale.

To find the volume, you can use the water displacement method. For example, if you fill the water of a graduated cylinder to 10 mL, and then you put a rock inside, and it rises to 15 mL, then the volume (of the rock) is 15mL-10mL=5mL.

Assuming that sea water is a 3.5 wt % solution of NaCl in water, calculate its osmotic pressure at 20°C. The density of a 3.5% N

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

π = 14.824 atm

Explanation:

wt % = ( w NaCL / w sea water ) * 100 = 3.5 %

assuming w sea water = 100 g = 0.1 Kg

⇒ w NaCl = 3.5 g

osmotic pressure ( π ):

π = C NaCl * R * T

∴ T = 20 °C + 273 = 293 K

∴ C ≡ mol/L

∴ density sea water = 1.03 Kg/L....from literature

⇒ volume sea water = 0.1 Kg * ( L / 1.03 Kg ) = 0.097 L sln

⇒ mol NaCl = 3.5 g NaCL * ( mol NaCL / 58.44 g ) = 0.06 mol

⇒ C NaCl = 0.06 mol / 0.097 L = 0.617 M

⇒ π = 0.617 mol/L * 0.082 atm L / K mol * 293 K

⇒ π = 14.824 atm
