After performing a dilution calculation, you determine you need 25.0 milliliters of an aqueous stock solution to make 100.0 mill

iliters of a new solution. How would this be prepared?

A is obviously out because it leads to a volume of 125.0 milliliters of the new solution and gives you a lower concentration than you were aiming for.

D is out because you are adding 75 milliliters of the stock solution, so your concentration would be too high. You only need 25.0 milometers of stock solution per 100 milliliters of the new solution.

C is also out because it leads to 50.0 milliliters stock solution per 100 milliliters of the new solution and hence the wrong concentration.

B is by default the correct answer. It also details the correct technique. First you add the stock solution (This you know from your calculations to be 25 milliliters.) then you add the water up to the volume you needed. (Because the calculations only tell you the total volume of water not what you need to add) You also add the water last so you can rinse the neck of the flask to make sure you also get all the stock solution residue into the stock solution.

I would add the final step of stirring, but B is the only answer that can be correct.

Answer:

You add 75 ml of water to a volumetric flask, along with the 25 ml of stock solution, to prepare a 100 ml dilution

Explanation:

Dilution is the procedure used to prepare a less concentrated solution from a more concentrated solution. It consists of adding solvent to an existing solution. Then the amount of solute does not vary, but the volume of the solvent does: when more solvent is added, the concentration of the solute decreases, as the volume of the solution increases.

In the case of a dilution, a Dilution Factor can be determined, which is a number that indicates how many times a solution must be diluted to obtain a lower concentration, such as:

Dilution factor = \frac{Vfinal}{Vinitial}

where Vfinal is the volume of the stock solution and Vinitial is the volume of the diluted solution.

In this case you need 25.0 ml of a stock solution to make 100.0 ml of a new diluted solution. So the dilution factor is:

Dilution factor=\frac{100}{25}

<em>Dilution factor=4</em>

This means that the initial solution must be diluted 4 times. Another way to see this is that for every 4 parts of this new diluted solution, 1 part is represented by the stock solution and 3 parts by the diluent water. Then, to prepare this solution, you must add 25.0 ml of stock solution to a volumetric flask, then add water until the total volume is equal to 100.0 ml.

So, you can do the calculation:

<em>100 ml - 25 ml = 75 ml </em>

This means that <u><em>you add 75 ml of water to a volumetric flask, along with the 25 ml of stock solution, to prepare a 100 ml dilution.  You diluted the stock solution by a factor of  4.</em></u>

Suppose that 0.410 mol of methane, CH4(g), is reacted with 0.560 mol of fluorine, F2(g), forming CF4(g) and HF(g) as sole produc
Ber [7]

Answer:

The balanced equation for this reaction will be

                            CH4 + 4F2    →  CF4 + 4HF

We can see that 1 mole of methane requires 4 moles of fluorine but we have 0.41 moles of CH4 and 0.56mole of F2

So using the unitary method we will get that

  • 1 mole of CH4 → 4 mole of 4 mole of fluorine
  • 0.41 mole of methane  →  4*0.41 = 1.64 mole of fluorine for complete reaction

but we have only 0.56 mole of fluorine that means fluorine is the limiting reagent and the product will only be formed by only this amount of fluorine.

  • 4 moles of  fluorine →  1 mole of CF4
  • 0.56 mole →  \frac{1}{4} * 0.56 = 0.14mole of CF4
  • 4 moles of fluorine →  4 moles of HF
  • 0.56 mole of fluorine →  0.56 mole of HF

now to find the heat released we have the formula as

DELTA H = n * Delta H of product - n *delta H of reactant

where n is the moles of the reactant and product.

note: since no information is given about the enthalpies of the species we leave it on general equation also you need to add the product side enthalpy of the species present and similarly on the product side.

In the balanced redox reaction: 2 cu(s) + s(s) ? cu2s(s), how many electrons are gained or lost by each sulfur atom?
MrRa [10]
2Cu + S = Cu₂S

S⁰ + 2e⁻ = S⁻²
Cu⁰ - 1e⁻ = Cu⁺¹

A sulfur atom gains two electrons.

Does a precipitate form when a solution of calcium chloride and a solution of mercury(I) nitrate are mixed together? Write the n
olganol [36]

Answer : Yes, a precipitate form when a solution of calcium chloride and a solution of mercury(I) nitrate are mixed together.

The net ionic equation will be,

2Hg^{+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Hg_2Cl_2(s)

Explanation :

In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

The given balanced ionic equation will be,

CaCl_2(aq)+2HgNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)+Hg_2Cl_2(s)

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

Ca^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)+2Hg^{+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Hg_2Cl_2(s)+Ca^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)

In this equation, Ca^{2+}\text{ and }NO_3^- are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

2Hg^{+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Hg_2Cl_2(s)
