If 42.1 mL of 1.02 M sodium hydroxide, measured using a graduated cylinder, is placed in a beaker filled with 300 mL of DI water

, what is the concentration of the diluted NaOH solution?
b) Why does this calculation only provide an estimate of the NaOH concentration? In other words, why do we have to standardize the NaOH in this experiment to find its exact concentration?

Answer:

Approximately 0.126 M

Explanation:

For the calculation of the dilution you take into account the moles of NaOH in the 42.1mL of the original solution and you use the new volume of 342.1 mL:

(42.1 mL * 1.02 M ) Number Of Moles\\\\C=\frac{42.1mL*1.02M}{342.1 mL} = 0.126 M

The standardization is necessary because a beaker is not not an instrument used to measure volumes and the marks on it only give an estimate of the volume of the solution, they are used to contain solutions and carry reactions among other things. If you would have measured the water with a graduated cylinder (an instrument designed to measure volumes) the standardization wouldnt be that necessary.

A 251 g strip of glass wool is used to insulate a reaction flask. During the reaction the temperature of the glass wool increase
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

8.9 KJ

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of strip = 251 g

Initial temperature = 22.8 °C

Final temperature = 75.9 °C

Specific heat  capacity of granite = 0.67 j/g.°C

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 75.9 °C - 22.8 °C

ΔT = 53.1 °C

Q = 251 g × 0.67 j/g.°C × 53.1 °C

Q = 8929.8 J

Jolue to KJ.

8929.8J ×1 KJ / 1000 J

8.9 KJ

Complete this sentence. If volume remains the same while the mass of a substance ________, the density of the substance will____
anygoal [31]
If volume remains the same while the mass of a substance increases, the density of the substance will increase.
So if the volume remains the same while the mass of a substance decreases, the density of the substance will decrease, too.

You are asked to go into the lab and prepare an acetic acid - sodium acetate buffer solution with a ph of 4.00  0.02. what mola
Oxana [17]
Hello!

To solve this problem we are going to use the Henderson-Hasselbach equation and clear for the molar ratio. Keep in mind that we need the value for Acetic Acid's pKa, which can be found in tables and is 4,76:

 pH=pKa + log ( \frac{[CH_3COONa]}{[CH_3COOH]} )

\frac{[CH_3COOH]}{[CH_3COONa}= 10^{(pH-pKa)^{-1}}=10^{(4-4,76)^{-1}}=5,75

So, the mole ratio of CH₃COOH to CH₃COONa is 5,75

Have a nice day!

A hypothetical AX type of ceramic material is known to have a density of 3.55 g/cm3 and a unit cell of cubic symmetry with a cel
postnew [5]

Explanation:

For AX type ceramic material, the number of formula per unit cells is as follows.

         \rho = \frac{n'(A_{c} + A_{A})}{V_{C}N_{A}}

or,     n' = \frac{\rho a^{3}N_{A}}{(A_{c} + A_{A})}

where,   n' = no. of formula units per cell

           A_{c} = molecular weight of cation = 90.5 g/mol

           A_{a} = molecular weight of anion = 37.3 g/mol

          V_{c} = volume of cubic cell = 3.55 g/cm^{3}

           a = edge length of unit cell = 3.9 \times 10^{-8} cm

        N_{A} = Avogadro's number = 6.023 \times 10^{23}

          \rho = density = 3.55 g/cm^{3}

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

           n' = \frac{\rho a^{3}N_{A}}{(A_{c} + A_{A})}

                      = \frac{3.55 g/cm^{3} \times (3.9 \times 10^{-8})^{3} \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}}{(90.5 + 37.3)}

                     = 0.9

                    = 1 (approx)

Therefore, we can conclude that out of the given options crystal structure of cesium chloride is possible for this material.
