Answer:

Since molarity is defined as moles of solute per liter of solution, we need to find the number of moles of nitric acid, and the volume of solution.

molar mass of nitric acid (HNO3) = 1 + 14 + (3x16) = 15 + 48 = 63 g/mole

1.50 g/ml x 1000 ml = 1500 g/liter

1500 g/liter x 0.90 = 1350 g/liter of pure HNO3 (the 0.9 is to correct for the fact that it is 90% pure)

1350 g/liter x 1 mole/63 g = 21.43 moles/liter = 21 Molar HNO3

= 21 Molar of HNO3

Answer:

21.4 M.

Explanation:

Mass of HNO3 = 90%

= 90 g of HNO3 in 100 g of solution.

Density = 1.5 g/ml

Molar mass of HNO3 = 1 + 14 + (3*16)

= 63 g/mol

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 90/63

= 1.429 mol.

Volume of solution = mass/density

= 100/1.5

= 66.67 ml of solution.

= 0.0667 l.

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of a substance per unit volume of solution.

Molarity, M = number of moles/volume

= 1.429/0.0667

= 21.4 M.

Ierofanga [76]
FeSO₄*7H₂O(s) = FeSO₄(s) + 7H₂O(g)

M(FeSO₄*7H₂O)=278.0 g/mol
M(FeSO₄)=151.9 g/mol

m(FeSO₄*7H₂O)/M(FeSO₄*7H₂O)=m(FeSO₄)/M(FeSO₄)

m(FeSO₄)=M(FeSO₄)m(FeSO₄*7H₂O)/M(FeSO₄*7H₂O)

m(FeSO₄)=151.9*100.0/278.0=54.6 g

m(FeSO₄)=54.6 g

After recrystallization, the final weight of biphenyl is found to be 0.02 g. Assume that all steps were carried out correctly, n
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Explanation:

From the source, The student recrystallized biphenyl by using benzene. Biphenyl is non polar and so is benzene. Biphenyl is very soluble in benzene at low as well as high temperature. Thus, it do not recrystallize as like dissolves like and gives a very poor yield.

The good recovery of the product is dependent on compound having high solubility at the high temperatures and having low solubility at the low temperatures.

Neither dry soil nor pure water conducts electricity. But wet soil will conduct electricity. Explain why this happens?
kipiarov [429]

Pure water does not have enough ions to conduct electricity. A mixture of metals such as iron, zinc and copper in the wet soil can trigger electrolysis that requires excess energy in the form of over potential to conduct electricity. The excess energy is needed due to limited self-ionization of water. The wet soil then can conduct current when positive and negative ions are present. The water ions begin to flow from anode (positive electrode) to cathode (negative electrode) to be oxidize and produce electricity.

how many moles of potassium would you need to prepare 1200 grams of 5.0% potassium sulfate (m/m) solution
Marianna [84]
The  moles  of  potassium  that  you  would    need  to  prepare  1200 g  of  5% potassium   sulfate solution  is    1.538 moles

calculation
  calculate  the mass  potassium using  the below formula

%M/M =  mass  of the  solute(potassium)/mass of the  solvent (potassium  sulfate solution)

let  the  mass  of  potassium be represented by  Y

then  convert %  into fraction  = 5/100

5/100 =  Y/1200
cross  multiplication
100y =  6000
divide  both side by 100

Y=  60 g

moles of potassium =mass/molar  mass

= 60/39=1.538
