(i) We start by calculating the mass of sugar in the solution:

mass of sugar = concentration × solution mass

mass of sugar = 2.5/100 × 500 = 12.5 g

Then now we can calculate the amount of water:

solution mass = mass of sugar + mass of water

mass of water = solution mass - mass of sugar

mass of water = 500 - 12.5 = 487.5 g

(ii) We use the following reasoning:

If 500 g solution contains 12.5 g sugar

Then X g solution contains 75 g sugar

X=(500×75)/12.5 = 3000 g solution

Now to get the amount of solution in liters we use density (we assume that is equal to 1):

Density = mass / volume

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 3000 / 1 = 3000 liters of sugar solution

$C_5H_{11}N + H2O ---\ \textgreater \ C_5H_{11}NH^{+} + OH^{-}$

Nitrogen lone pair will act as a base,removing H+ from water leaving behind OH- ion.
Why ?
Because N is a better donor than O.

Ahat [919]

You did not include the questions.

I did some research and found the questions:

 What is the mass of 1 mole of pennies? How many moles of pennies have a mass equal to the mass of the moon?

Solutions:

1) mass of 1 mole of pennies

Data: mass of 1 penny = 2.50 g

1 mole = 6.022 * 10^ 23 units

Proportion:

1 penny 6.022 * 10^23 penny
-------------- = ----------------------------
 2.50 g x

Solve: x = 6.022 * 10^23 penny * 2.50g / 1 penny = 15.055* 10^23

Since 2.50 has 3 significant figures, the answer must use 3 significant figures => x = 15.1 * 10^ 23 g = 1.51 * 10^24 g

Answer: 1 mol of pennies have a mass of 1.51 * 10^24 g

2) How many moles of pennies have a mass equal to the same mass of the Moon

Convert the mass of the Moon grams: 7.35 * 10^22 kg = 7.35 * 10^ 25 g

 1 mol x
---------------------- = ----------------------
1.51 * 10^ 24g 7.35 * 10^ 25 g

=> x = 7.35 * 10^ 25 g * 1 mol / (1.51 * 10^24 g)= 48.7 mol

Answer: 48.7 mol

bulgar [2K]

0.355M x 0.0282L= 0.01 moles of H2SO4. Remember sulphuric acid is diprotic so it will release 2 from each molecule.
So moles of protons = 0.01 x 2 = 0.02 moles of H+ 
For neutralization: moles H+ = moles OH- 
Therefore moles of NaOH = 0.02 
conc = moles / volume 
Conc NaOH = 0.02 / 0.025L = 0.8M
