Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The illustration of the condition if hexane is added to the water is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Density is defined as the ratio of mass to the volume. Mass and volume are physical quantities and the units of mass and volume are fundamental units. The unit of volume is derived from the units of mass and volume. The SI unit of density is
The density of the substance determines whether the substance sinks or floats in a liquid. Substance with less density always floats on a high-density liquid.
(b)
Interpretation:
The illustration of the condition if dichloromethane is added to the water is to be drawn.

- 1.87 A solution of ethanol in water has a volume of 54.2 mL and a mass of 49.6 g. what information would you need to look up and how would you determine the percentage of ethanol in this solution?arrow_forwardSuppose that you are doing an experiment as part of your Capstone Design Project. A glass vessel originally contains 100 mL of fresh water. Then water containing 1 g/mL of NaCl is poured into the vessel at a rate of 2 mL/min, and the mixture is allowed to leave at the same rate. After 10 minutes the process is stopped, and fresh water is poured into the vessel at a rate of 2 mL/min, with the mixture again leaving at the same rate. Find the amount of NaCl in the vessel at the end of an additional 10 min.arrow_forwardyou combined 25 ml of milk with 30 ml of vinegar. After 10 minutes you observe the mixture again and the graduated cylinder now reads a total of 51.5 ml. How many ml have evaporated from the mixture?arrow_forward
- Prepare a solution of NaCl by accurately weighing approximately 1.45g of NaCl into a 100 mL beaker / conical flask. Record the mass of the sample. Add 25 mL distilled water. Mix until all crystals dissolve. Prepare a solution of magnesium chloride by accurately weighing approximately 3.61 g of MgCl2٠6H20 into a 100 mL beaker / conical flask. Record the mass of the sample. Add 25 mLdistilled water. Mix until all the crystals dissolve. 1. Calculate the molality of the NaCℓ and MgCℓ2.6H2O solutions. 2. Calculate the total mass of water (solvent) in kg: a) Mass of crystal water added (kg): b) Mass of water added (kg): c) Total mass of water added (kg): 3. Calculate the molality of MgCℓ2. All questions follow on from each other. Thanks very much.arrow_forwardYou are on a road trip. Your car travels at an average speed of 65 miles/hr, with an average gas use of 17.8 km/L. 1 liter = 1,000 mL = 0.264 gallons. 1 km = 0.621 miles. 1) If your trip takes 2.6 hours, determine how many total liters and gallons of gasoline are used on this trip. 2) How many mL (milliliters) of gasoline are used by the car each minute during this trip? 3) The density of the gasoline used on your trip is 0.755 g/mL. What is the total mass in grams, and in ounces of the gasoline used on your trip?arrow_forwardThe discharge of an abandoned mine flows into a freshwater lake. The discharge enters the lakes at a rate of 1.1 m3/ second. The copper load in the discharge is 121 kg/hour. What is the average concentration of copper in the discharge in mg/L?arrow_forward
- A student pipetted 10 mL of a sample solution into a 250 mL volumetric flask and diluted it to the mark with distilled water. The student then, pipetted 10 mL of this new solution into a 50.00 mL volumetric flask and diluted it to the mark with water. What is the dilution factor of the final solution? 100X 25X 125X 5X 50Xarrow_forwardAn intensive care patient is receiving an antibiotic IV at the rate of 50. mL/h.

Observe these properties of water and rubbing alcohol: color, smell, and ability to dissolve salt. Record your observations in the table. To observe the solubility of salt in the liquid, put one-quarter teaspoon of salt into each container and stir. You may weigh out 1.5 g of salt on the electronic balance if you don’t have a one-quarter teaspoon measure. Observe the properties of the liquid in the container labeled unknown. Record the properties of the unknown substance in the table. Now observe the properties of the liquid in the container labeled unknown. Record the properties of the unknown substance in the table.
