To answer the question above, let us a basis of the 1000 mL or 1 L. 
                 volume = (0.9928 g/mL)(1000mL) = 992.8 g
Then, determine the mass of the alcohol by multiplying the total mass by the decimal equivalent of 5%. 
               mass of alcohol = 0.05(992.8 g) = 49.64 g
Then, determine the number of moles of ethyl alcohol by dividing the mass of alcohol by the molar mass (46 g/mol). 
                       n = 49.64 g/ (46 g/mol) = 1.08 mol
Then, divide the number of moles by the volume (our basis is 1 L)
                       molarity = 1.08 mol/ 1 L = 1.08 M

Which of the following is a reasonable ground-state electron configuration?
Veronika [31]

Answer is: 1s22s22p5.

1) Electron configuration 1s²1p⁶2d², this is not reasonable because 1p and 2d oritals do not exist.

2) Electron configuration 1s²2s⁴2p⁶, this is not reasonable because s orbitals only contain 2 electrons.

3) Electron configuration 1s²2s²2p⁵ is of an element fluorine. Fluorine (F) has atomic number 9, which means it has 9 protons and 9 electrons.

4) Electron configuration 1s²2s²2d⁶, this is not reasonable because 2d orbitals do not exist.

A 5.00 gram sample of an oxide of lead PbxOy contains 4.33g of lead. Determine the simplest formula for the compound.
Valentin [98]
PbO2

You have to take the mass of lead in the problem, and divide by the molar mass.
When you do the same with oxygen, you get a number about twice as large as when you divide the mass of lead by the molar mass of lead. This means that the simplest formula  would be PbO2

pshichka [43]

Answer:2

Explanation:

Ba(OH)2 contains two oxygen atoms

BaSO4 contains four oxygen atoms.

This means that barium sulphate contains two more oxygen atoms than barium hydroxide in its formula. This is clearly seen from the two formulae shown above.

What would be the products for the reaction Br2 + KI →? (Just identify the correct products for the reaction. You do not need to
Savatey [412]

<u>Answer:</u> The products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its chemical reaction.

The general chemical equation for the single displacement reaction follows:

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

The given chemical equation follows:

Br_2+2KI\rightarrow I_2+2KBr

Bromine element is more reactive than iodine element. Thus, can easily replace iodine from its chemical reaction.

Hence, the products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr
