Please Help Potassium sulfate has a solubility of 15g/100g water at 40 Celsius. A solution is prepared by adding 39.0g of potass

ium sulfate to 225g water, carefully heating the solution, and cooling it to 40 Celsius. A homogeneous solution is obtained. Is this solution saturated, unsaturated, or supersaturated? The beaker is shaken and precipitation occurs. How many grams of potassium sulfate would you except to crystallize out?

To determine the state of saturation of the solution, we calculate the mass of solute per mass of water for the given amounts and compare this value to the solubility. If the value is less than the solubility, then the solution is unsaturated. If it is greater than solubility, then it is supersaturated. If it is equal to the solubility, then it is saturated.

mass solute / mass water  = 39.0 grams K2SO4 / 225 grams H2O = 0.173 g K2SO4/ g H2O
solubility = 15 g /100 g = .15 g/g

Therefore, the solution is supersaturated. When it is shaken, some of the solute would precipitate out. 

mass of solute soluble to water = .15 g K2SO4/ g water ( 225 g water ) = 33.75 g K2SO4
mass of K2SO4 that would crystallize = 39.0 - 33.75 = 5.25 g K2SO4

How many grams of copper (II) nitrate would be produced from 0.80 g of copper metal reacting with excess nitric acid?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the chemical reaction between copper and nitric acid is:

2HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+H_2

By starting with 0.80 g of copper metal (molar mass = 63.54 g/mol) and considering the 1:1 mole ratio between copper and copper (II) nitrate (molar mass = 187.56 g/mol) we can compute that mass via stoichiometry as shown below:

m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=0.80gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.54gCu} *\frac{1molCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu} *\frac{187.56gCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu(NO_3)_2} \\\\m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2

However, the real reaction between copper and nitric acid releases nitrogen oxide, yet it does not modify the calculations since the 1:1 mole ratio is still there:

4HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2H_2O+2NO_2

Best regards!

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Doping with galium or indium will yield a p-type semiconductor while doping with arsenic, antimony or phosphorus will yield an n-type semiconductor.

Explanation:

Doping refers to improving the conductivity of a semiconductor by addition of impurities. A trivalent impurity leads to p-type semiconductor while a pentavalent impurity leads to an n-type semiconductor.

How many grams of water are needed to dissolve 27.8 g of ammonium nitrate NH4NO3 in order to prepare a 0.452 m solution?
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: 770 g water are needed to dissolve 27.8 g of ammonium nitrate NH_4NO_3 in order to prepare a 0.452 m solution

Explanation:

Molality : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present per kg of solvent

Formula used :

Molality=\frac{n\times 1000}{W_s}

where,

n= moles of solute

Moles of NH_4NO_3=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{27.8g}{80.0g/mol}=0.348moles  

W_s = weight of the solvent in g = ?

0.452=\frac{0.348\times 1000}{W_s}

W_s=770g

Thus 770 g water are needed to dissolve 27.8 g of ammonium nitrate NH_4NO_3 in order to prepare a 0.452 m solution
