Concentration is generally expressed in terms of Molarity (M).

Molarity is the number of moles of solute dissolved in one liter of a solvent, i.e.

Molarity = moles of solute(n) / volume of solution (V) -----(1)

Here the solute is oxalic acid of known mass, m

Molar mass of oxalic acid (H2C2O4) = 90 g/mol

Number of moles, n = mass of oxalic acid/molar mass = m/90 ----(2)

Substituting for n in equation (1) we get:

M = 'm' gram /(90 gram.mole⁻¹) * ('V' Lit)

M = (m/90*V) mole/Lit

Since the mass of oxalic is known, the volume V is required to complete the molarity/concentration calculation.

Chlorine gas can be made from the reaction of manganese dioxide with hydrochloric acid. MnO2(s) + 4HCl(aq) → MnCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Please see the complete formt of the question below

Chlorine gas can be made from the reaction of manganese dioxide with hydrochloric acid.

MnO₂(s) + HCl(aq) → MnCl₂(aq) + H₂O(l) + Cl₂(g)

According to the above reaction, determine the limiting reactant when 5.6 moles of MnO₂ are reacted with 7.5 moles of HCl.

The answer to the above question is

The limiting reactant is the MnO₂

Explanation:

To solve this,  we note that one mole of MnO₂ reacts with one mole of HCl to produce one mole of MnCl₂, one mole of H₂O and one mole of Cl₂

Molar mass of MnO₂ = 86.9368 g/mol

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

From the stoichiometry of the reaction, 5.6 moles of MnO₂ will react with 5.6 moles of HCl to produce 5.6  moles of H₂O and 5.6 moles of Cl₂

However there are 7.5 moles of HCL therefore there will be an extra 7.5-5.6 or 1.9 moles of HCl remaining when the reaction is completed

Water treatment plants commonly use chlorination to destroy bacteria. a byproduct is chloroform (chcl3), a suspected carcinogen
antiseptic1488 [7]
<span>100. ppb of chcl3 in drinking water means  100 g of CHCl3 in 1,000,0000,000 g of water

Molarity, M

M = number of moles of solute / volume of solution in liters

number of moles of solute = mass of CHCl3 / molar mass of CHCl3

molar mass of CHCl3 = 119.37 g/mol

number of moles of solute = 100 g / 119.37 g/mol = 0.838 mol

using density of water = 1 g/ ml => 1,000,000,000 g = 1,000,000 liters

M = 0.838 / 1,000,000 = 8.38 * 10^ - 7 M <----- answer

Molality, m

m = number of moles of solute / kg of solvent

number of moles of solute = 0.838

kg of solvent = kg of water = 1,000,000 kg

m = 0.838 moles / 1,000,000 kg = 8.38 * 10^ - 7 m <----- answer

mole fraction of solute, X solute

X solute = number of moles of solute / number of moles of solution

number of moles of solute = 0.838

number of moles of solution = number of moles of solute + number of moles of solvent

number of moles of solvent = mass of water / molar mass of water = 1,000,000,000 g / 18.01528 g/mol = 55,508,435 moles

number of moles of solution = 0.838 moles + 55,508,435 moles = 55,508,436 moles

X solute = 0.838 / 55,508,435 = 1.51 * 10 ^ - 8 <------ answer

mass percent, %

% = (mass of solute / mass of solution) * 100 = (100g / 1,000,000,100 g) * 100 =

% = 10 ^ - 6 % <------- answer

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: The workdone W = 505J

Explanation:

Applying the pressure-volume relationship

W= - PΔV

Where negative sign indicates the power is being delivered to the surrounding

W = - 1.0atm * ( 5.88 - 0.9)L

= - 1.0atm * (4.98)

W = -4.98 atmL

Converting to Joules

1atmL = 101.325J

-4.98atmL = x joules.

Work done in J = -4.98 * 101.325

W= -505J

Therefore the workdone is -505J
