Answer:

38503.5N

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

P (pressure) = 5.00 atm

Now, we need to convert 5atm to a number in N/m2 in order to obtain the desired result of force in Newton (N). This is illustrated below:

1 atm = 101325N/m2

5 atm = 5 x 101325 = 506625N/m^2

A (area of piston) = 0.0760 m^2

Pressure is force per unit area. Mathematically it is written as

P = F/A

F = P x A

F = 506625 x 0.0760

F = 38503.5N

Therefore, the force exerted on the piston is 38503.5N

1. Calculate the molarity of a sugar solution if 4 liters of the solution contains 8 moles of sugar
klio [65]

Answer:

The molarity of a sugar solution is 2 M.

Explanation:

Molarity is a concentration measure that expresses the moles of solute per liter of solution. In this case it is calculated with the simple rule of three:

4 L of solution--------8 moles of sugar

1 L of solution ------x= (1 L of solution x 8 moles of sugar)/4 L of solution

x=2 moles of sugar---> <em>The solution is 2M</em>

A solution is prepared by dissolving 91.7 g fructose in 545 g of water. Determine the mole fraction of fructose if the final vol
oee [108]

Answer:

Mole fraction = 0,0166

Explanation:

Mole fraction is defined as mole of a compound per total moles of the mixture. In the solution, the solute is fructose and the solvent is water. That means you need to find moles of fructose and moles of water.

The molecular mass of fructose is 180,16g/mol and mass of water is 18,02 g/mol. Using these values:

91,7g fructose × (1mol / 180,16g) = <em>0,509 moles of fructose</em>

545g water × (1mol / 18,02g) = <em>30,24 moles of water</em>

Thus, mole fraction of fructose is:

\frac{0,509 moles}{0,509mol + 30,24mol} = 0,0166

<em>Mole fraction = 0,0166</em>

I hope it helps!

OLga [1]

Answer is: A. Chemical energy to electromagnetic energy and thermal energy.  

Balanced chemical reaction: 2Mg(s) + O₂(g) → 2MgO(s) + energy.

This is chemical change (chemical reaction), because new substance (magnesium oxide MgO) is formed, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change (exothermic reaction because energy is released).

Chemical changes (chemical synthesis) is when a substance combines with another (in this example magnesium and oxygen) to form a new substance.

0.45 g of hydrated sodium carbonate crystals were heated until 3.87 of anhydrous power remained.
snow_tiger [21]

Formula of hydrated sodium carbonate : Na₂CO₃.10H₂O, so moles of water in one mole of hydrated salt = 10

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Hydrate is a compound that binds water (H₂O), usually in the form of crystals/ solids

If these compounds are dissolved in water or heated, the hydrates can decompose:

Example: X.YH₂O (s) → X (aq) + YH₂O (l)

The formula for the hydrated compound contains: YH2O

The mole ratio shows the ratio of the coefficients of the hydrate compound

10.45 hydrated sodium carbonate(Na₂CO₃.xH₂O) were heated until 3.87 of 3.87of anhydrous (Na₂CO₃) remained, so

mass H₂O released :

\tt 10.45-3.87=6.58~g

mass Na₂CO₃ = 3.87 g

mol ratio Na₂CO₃(MW= g/mol) : H₂O(MW=18 g/mol) =

\tt \dfrac{3.87}{105,9888}\div \dfrac{6.58}{18}=0.0365\div 0.3655=1\div 10
