a. The density of sorbitol 70% w/w solution is 1.285g/ml. What is the concentration of sorbitol in the solution, expressed as a w/v% concentration? b. Try the same calculation, but instead of using the SG of the sorbitol solution, use the density of sorbitol powder (1.49g/ml) to convert sorbitol 70% w/w to a w/v% concentration. Do the calculation without using the density of the solution given to you in Question 1. (You should get pretty close to the same answer as in part al)

The alcohol content of hard liquor is normally given in terms of the “proof,” which is defined as twice the percentage by volume of ethanol (C2H5OH) present. Calculate the number of grams of alcohol present in 1.00 L of 75-proof gin. The density of ethanol is 0.798 g/mL. Round off to 4 sig. figures for all calculations made prior to final answer and the final answer should be in 3 sig. figures

Which statement is true? Statement 1: In chromatography, the compound mixture moves along with the mobile phase through the stationary phase and the components get separated depending on the degree of interaction and adhesion Statement 2: Compound A is more soluble in the mobile phase compared to compound B. Thus, compound A would most probably have a higher Rf value.

Cedrick and Astrid a 20.00 ml aliquot of grapefruit juice with a 0.165 M NaOH solution to the end point. The initail buret reading was 1.72ml and final buret reading was 15.51ml. They calculated that there was 0.1457g of citric acid present in the juice sample. What is the amount mg of citric acid present per ml of juice? the answer is 7.29mg/ml. (can you please show me how to calculate this answer)

In this experiment, a known number of moles of Hydrochloric acid is mixed with an equal number of moles of Sodium hydroxide in an insulated container. 1. A 50-centimeter cubed of the 1-mole hydrochloric acid solution into one of the plastic cup 2. using a second graduated cylinder place a 50-centimeter cubed of 1 molar sodium hydroxide solution into the second plastic cup 3. measure the temp of the hydrochloric acid solution which is 21.8 c 4. measure the temperature of the sodium hydroxide solution which is 21.7 c 5. when both solutions are at the same room temp, stir well and avoid any loss of liquid and splashing 6. place a lid onto the plastic cup and continue stirring. Record the maximum temp reached. which is 24.5 C Now find Temp of HCl before mixing = ------- Temp of NaOH before mixing = ---------- Highest temp reached after mixing = ------- temp rise = ------------ Mass of solution = ---------- Heat librated = M*C*(T2-T1)

For the CO2 impact experiment station: 1) Obtain two plastic cups, red cabbage indicator, a straw, and plastic wrap. 2) Fill each cup approximately one-quarter to one-third full of tap water and add ~10 mL of the red cabbage indicator. 3) Place the two cups side by side on a sheet of white paper. 4) Place the straw into one of the beakers and cover that beaker with the plastic wrap. 5) Carefully blow bubbles into the test cup for 3 min. and observe both cups. 6) Compare the color to the control cup and record any differences. This the Question: Did the beaker with the solution into which CO2 was bubbled change pH/color? By how much? Is this what, you would predict, based on your knowledge of the chemistry of CO2?
