Like many other organic solvents we will use this semester, ethanol is flammable and caution needs to be exercised when heating

ethanol on the hot plate. What precaution should always be taken when heating solvents on the hot plate?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A flammable solvent refers to a solvent that catches fire easily. The precautions to be taken when working with flammable solvents are;

1) heat the solvent at a low to medium hot plate setting.

2) if you need to boil the solvent, use a condenser rather than a flask or beaker without a cover.

3) make sure that the hotplate is larger than the vessel containing the mixture that is being heated.

4) do not use strong oxidizing agents

30. how many grams of boric acid, b(oh)3 (fm 61.83), should be used to make 2.00 l of 0.050 0 m solution? what kind of fl ask is
grigory [225]

Answer:

             Mass  =  6.183 g

Solution:

Step 1: Calculate number of moles of Boric acid using following formula,

                                        Molarity  =  Moles ÷ Volume

Solving for Moles,

                                        Moles  =  Molarity × Volume

Putting Values,

                                        Moles  =  0.05 mol.L⁻¹ × 2.0 L

                                        Moles  =  0.1 mol

Step 2: Calculate Mass of Boric Acid using following formula,

                                        Moles  =  Mass ÷ M.mass

Solving for Mass,

                                        Mass  =  Moles × M.mass

Putting values,

                                        Mass  =  0.1 mol × 61.83 g.mol⁻¹

                                        Mass  =  6.183 g

Flask used to prepare this solution is called as Volumetric flask. Take 2 L volumetric flask, add 6.183 g of Boric acid and fill it to the mark with distilled water.

If a 0.10 M solution of a colored substance has a maximum absorbance at 500 nm and an absorbance of 0.26 M at this wavelength, w
Mashcka [7]
Absorbance is related to the concentration of a substance using the Beer-Lambert's Law. According to this law, absorbance is linearly related to concentration. However, this is only true up to a certain concentration depending on the substance. For this case, we assume that the said law is applicable.

A = kC
Using the first conditions, ewe solve for k.
0.26 = k (0.10)
k = 2.6

A = kC
A = 2.6 (0.20) = 0.52

Therefore, the absorbance at a concentration of 0.20 M and wavelength of 500nm is 0.52.

What is the concentration of an alcl3 solution if 150. ml of the solution contains 550. mg of cl- ion?
valina [46]

The concentration of AlCl3 solution if 150 ml of the solution contains 550 mg of cl- ion is 0.0344 M


calculation


concentration = moles /volume in liters


volume in liters = 150 /1000= 0.15 L


number of moles calculation

write the equation for dissociation of Al2Cl3

that is AlCl3 ⇔ Al^3+ + 3 Cl ^-


find the moles of Cl^- formed

moles =mass/molar mass

mass in grams= 550/ 1000 =0.55 grams

molar mass of Cl^- =35.5 g/mol


moles is therefore= 0.55/35.5 =0.0155 moles


by use of mole ration betweem AlCl3 to Cl^- which is 1:3 the moles of AlCl3 is =0.0155 x 1/3= 5.167 x10^-3 moles



concentration of AlCl3 is therefore= 5.167 x10^-3/ 0.15 =0.0344 M

Is a tick autotroph or heterotroph? Pls explane
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Autotrophs are known as producers because they are able to make their own food from raw materials and energy. Examples include plants, algae, and some types of bacteria. Heterotrophs are known as consumers because they consume producers or other consumers. Dogs, birds, fish, and humans are all examples of heterotrophs

Explanation:

So they are heterotrophs

Ticks are tiny parasites that feed on the blood of their hosts (humans and animals) in order to survive and advance to the next life cycle stage.

How many moles are in 8.30x10^23 molecules of H2o
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
You multiply avogadro's number to what you were given.
8.30x10^23 * 6. 0221409x10^23
=1.357*10^25

That should be the right answer but I'm not sure. It has been awhile since I have done this.
