The units of parts per million (ppm) and parts per billion (ppb) are commonly used by environmental chemists. In general, 1 ppm means 1 part of solute for every 106 parts of solution. Mathematically, by mass: ppm=gsolutegsolution=mgsolutekgsolution In the case of very dilute aqueous solutions, a concentration of 1.0 ppm is equal to 1.0 g of solute per 1.0 mL, which equals 1.0 g solution. Parts per billion is defined in a similar fashion. Calculate the molarity of each of the following aqueous solutions. a. 5.0 ppb Hg in H2O b. 1.0 ppb CHCl3 in H2O c. 10.0 ppm As in H2O d. 0.10 ppm DDT (C14H9Cl5) in H2O
Calculate the number of moles and the mass of the solute in each of the following solutions: (a) 2.00 L of 18.5MH2SO4, concentrated sulfuric acid (b) 100.0 mL of 3.8105MNaCN, the minimum lethal concentration of sodium cyanide in blood serum (c) 5.50 L of 13.3 MH2CO, the formaldehyde used to fix tissue samples (d) 325 mL of 1.8106MFeSO4, the minimum concentration of iron sulfate detectable by taste in drinking water
You are given a 1.50-g mixture of sodium nitrate and sodium chloride. You dissolve this mixture into 100 mL of water and then add an excess of 0.500 M silver nitrate solution. You produce a white solid, which you then collect, dry, and measure. The white solid has a mass of 0.641 g. a. If you had an extremely magnified view of the solution (to the atomic-molecular level), list the species you would see (include charges, if any). b. Write the balanced net ionic equation for the reaction that produces the solid. Include phases and charges. c. Calculate the percent sodium chloride in the original unknown mixture.
How do we define the mass percent composition of a solution? Give an example of a solution, and explain the relative amounts of solute and solvent present in the solution in terms of the mass percent composition.
What mass of HCl is contained in 45.0 mL of an aqueous HCl solution that has a density of 1.19 g cm-3 and contains 37.21% HCl by mass?
94. Baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate. NaHCO3) is often used to neutralize spills of acids on the benchtop in the laboratory. What mass of NaHCO3 would be needed to neutralize a spill consisting of 25.2 mL of 6.01 M hydrochloric acid solution?
Without consulting your textbook, list and explain the main postulates of the kinetic molecular theory for gases. How do these postulates help us account for the following bulk properties of a gas: the pressure of the gas and why the pressure of the gas increases with increased temperature; the fact that a gas tills its entire container; and the fact that the volume of a given sample of gas increases as its temperature is increased.
