Short Answer

Expert verified
The number of moles of solute present in each solution are as follows: (a) 0.15 moles of SrBr₂, (b) 0.01553 moles of KCl, and (c) 0.0444 moles of glucose.

Step by step solution

01

a. 600 mL of 0.250 M SrBr₂ solution

To find the number of moles in this solution, we will use the molarity formula: \(moles = Molarity * Volume\). Given: Molarity, M = 0.250 mol/L Volume, V = 600 mL = \(600 *10^{-3}\) L (Converting milliliters to liters) Now, let's plug the values into the formula: \(moles = (0.250) * (600 *10^{-3})\) Calculating the moles, we get: \(moles = 0.15\) mol There are 0.15 moles of SrBr₂ in the solution.
02

b. 86.4 g of 0.180 m KCl solution

In this case, we are given the mass (Mass_sol) and molality (m) of a KCl solution. The molality formula is: \(molality = moles(sol) / mass(kg) \). We can rearrange this formula to find the moles of solute as: \(moles(sol) = molality * mass(kg) \). Given: Molality, m = 0.180 mol/kg Mass of the solution, Mass_sol = 86.4 g Now, let's plug the values into the formula: \(moles(KCl) = (0.180) * (86.4 *10^{-3})\) (Converting grams to kg) Calculating the moles, we get: \(moles(KCl) = 0.01553\) mol There are 0.01553 moles of KCl in the solution.
03

c. 124.0 g of a solution that is 6.45% glucose by mass

In this case, we are given the mass of a glucose solution and its mass percent concentration. We can calculate the mass of glucose in the solution by multiplying the mass of the solution by the mass percent. Then we can use the molar mass of glucose to calculate the number of moles. Given: Mass of solution, Mass_sol = 124.0 g Mass percent of glucose = 6.45 % The mass of glucose in the solution: Mass_glucose = \(124 g * \frac{6.45}{100}\) Calculating the mass, we get: Mass_glucose = 7.998 g The molar mass of glucose, \(C_6 H_{12} O_6\), is calculated as: Molar_mass = \(6 * (12.01 g/mol) + 12 * (1.01 g/mol) + 6 * (16.00 g/mol) = 180.18 g/mol\) Now we can use the mass of glucose and the molar mass to find the moles of glucose: \(moles(glucose) = \frac{Mass_{glucose}}{Molar_{mass}}\) Plugging in the values: \(moles(glucose) = \frac{7.998}{180.18}\) Calculating the moles, we get: \(moles(glucose) = 0.0444\) mol There are 0.0444 moles of glucose in the solution.

Most popular questions from this chapter

If you compare the solubilities of the noble gases in water, you find that solubility increases from smallest atomic weight to largest, Ar \(<\mathrm{Kr}<\mathrm{Xe} .\) Which of the following statements is the best explanation? [ Section 13.3\(]\) (a) The heavier the gas, the more it sinks to the bottom of the water and leaves room for more gas molecules at the top of the water. (b) The heavier the gas, the more dispersion forces it has, and therefore the more attractive interactions it has with water molecules. (c) The heavier the gas, the more likely it is to hydrogen-bond with water. (d) The heavier the gas, the more likely it is to make a saturated solution in water.

(a) A sample of hydrogen gas is generated in a closed container by reacting 2.050 g of zinc metal with 15.0 \(\mathrm{mL}\) . of 1.00 \(\mathrm{M}\) sulfuric acid. Write the balanced equation for the reaction, and calculate the number of moles of hydrogen formed, assuming that the reaction is complete. (b) The volume over the solution in the container is 122 mL. Calculate the partial pressure of the hydrogen gas in this volume at \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) , ignoring any solubility of the gas in the solution. (c) The Henry's law constant for hydrogen in water at \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is \(7.8 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{mol} / \mathrm{L}\) -atm. Estimate the number of moles of hydrogen gas that remain dissolved in the solution. What fraction of the gas molecules in the system is dissolved in the solution? Was it reasonable to ignore any dissolved hydrogen in part (b)?

At \(35^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) the vapor pressure of acetone, \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{2} \mathrm{CO},\) is 360 torr, and that of chloroform, \(\mathrm{CHCl}_{3},\) is 300 torr. Acetone and chloroform can form very weak hydrogen bonds between one another; the chlorines on the carbon give the carbon a sufficient partial positive charge to enable this behavior: A solution composed of an equal number of moles of acetone and chloroform has a vapor pressure of 250 torr at \(35^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) (a) What would be the vapor pressure of the solution if it exhibited ideal behavior? (b) Based on the behavior of the solution, predict whether the mixing of acetone and chloroform is an exothermic \(\left(\Delta H_{\text { soln }}<0\right)\) or endothermic \(\left(\Delta H_{\text { soln }}>0\right)\) process.

Calculate the freezing point of a 0.100 m aqueous solution of \(\mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4},\) (a) ignoring interionic attractions, and (b) taking interionic attractions into consideration by using the van't Hoff factor (Table 13.4 )

Arrange the following aqueous solutions, each 10\(\%\) by mass in solute, in order of increasing boiling point: glucose \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_{6}\right),\) sucrose \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{12} \mathrm{H}_{22} \mathrm{O}_{11}\right),\) sodium nitrate (\textrm{NaNO} _ { 3 } ) .
