Concept introduction:
Solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components. A sample taken from any part of the solution will have the same composition as the rest of the solution. The normality of a solution is defined as the number of equivalents per liter of the solution. One equivalent of an acid is the quantity that gives

- Calculate the molarity of AgNO3 in a solution prepared by dissolving 1.44 g AgNO3 in enough water to form 1.00 L solution.arrow_forwardAccording to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), waste material is classified as toxic and must be handled as hazardous if the lead concentration exceeds 5 mg/L. By adding chloride ion, the lead ion will precipitate as PbCl2, which can be separated from the liquid portion. Once the lead has been removed, the rest of the waste can be sent to a conventional waste treatment facility. How many grams of sodium chloride must be added to 500 L of a waste solution to reduce the concentration of the Pb2+ ion from 10 to 5 mg/L?arrow_forwardCalcium carbonate, CaCO3, can be obtained in a very pure state. Standard solutions of calcium ion are usually prepared by dissolving calcium carbonate in acid. What mass of CaCO3 should be taken to prepare 500. mL of 0.0200 M calcium ion solution?arrow_forward
- Simple acids such as formic acid, HCOOH, and acetic acid, CH3COOH, are very soluble in water; however, fatty acids such as stearic acid, CH3(CH2)16COOH, and palmitic acid, CH3(CH2)14COOH, are water-insoluble. Based on what you know about the solubility of alcohols, explain the solubility of these organic acids.arrow_forwardHow would you prepare from the solid and pure water (a) 0.400 L of 0.155 M Sr(OH)2?
