Question: Calculate each of the following:

a. Mass % of I in strontium periodate

b. Mass % of Mn in potassium permanganate

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. Mass % of I in strontium periodate is 54.07%

b. Mass % of Mn in potassium permanganate is 54.07%

Step by step solution

01

Definition of Mass 

A property that reflects the quantity of matter within a sample is defined as mass

02

Calculations

a. The molar mass of strontium periodate is 469.42gmol

Mass % of I =2​ mol  I126.90g  Imol  I469.42gSr(IO4)2×100

Mass % of I is 54.07%

b. The molar mass of strontium periodate is 158.04gmol

Mass % of Mn =1​ mol  Mn54.94g  Mnmol  Mn158.04gKMnO4×100

Mass % of Mn is 34.76%

Cocaine (C17H21O4N) is a natural substance found in coca leaves, which have been used for centuries as a local anesthetic and stimulant. Illegal cocaine arrives in the United States either as the pure compound or as the hydrochloride salt (C17H21O4NHCl). At 25oC, the salt is very soluble in water (2.50 kg/L), but cocaine is much less so (1.70 g/L). (a) What is the maximum amount (in g) of the salt that can dissolve in 50.0 mL of water? (b) If the solution in part (a) is treated with NaOH, the salt is converted to cocaine. How much additional water (in L) is needed to dissolve it?

Calculate each of the following quantities:

(a) Volume of 18.0 M sulfuric acid that must be added to water to prepare 2.00 L of a 0.429 M solution

(b) Molarity of the solution obtained by diluting 80.6 mL of 0.225 M ammonium chloride to 0.250 L

(c) Volume of water added to 0.130 L of 0.0372 M sodium hydroxide to obtain a 0.0100 M solution (assume the volumes are additive at these low concentrations)

(d) Mass of calcium nitrate in each milliliter of a solution prepared by diluting 64.0 mL of 0.745 M calcium nitrate to a final volume of 0.100 L
