Question 11

The concentration of a substance is defined as the number of moles in what volume?

Accepted Answer

Concentration is typically expressed in moles per liter (mol/L), which is also known as molarity.

Question 12

What amount of hydrogen chloride is present in 500 mL of a solution with a concentration of 0.5 mol L^-1?

Accepted Answer

The amount of hydrogen chloride can be calculated using the formula: amount (mol) = concentration (mol/L) × volume (L). Here, 0.5 mol/L × 0.5 L = 0.25 mol.

Question 13

How many moles are present in 10 mL of a sodium chloride (salt) solution, with a concentration of 2 mol L^-1?

Accepted Answer

To find the number of moles, use the formula: moles = concentration (mol/L) × volume (L). Here, 2 mol/L × 0.01 L = 0.02 mol.

Question 14

What is the concentration of 100 mL of a solution containing 2.5 moles of glucose?

Accepted Answer

Concentration (mol L^-1) = moles/volume (L). 2.5 moles/0.1 L = 25 mol L^-1.

Question 15

How many moles of NaOH do we need to prepare 250 mL of a 2M solution?

Accepted Answer

To find the number of moles needed, use the formula: moles = molarity × volume (in liters). Here, moles = 2 M × 0.250 L = 0.5 mol.

Question 16

How many moles of NH₃ do we need to prepare 100 mL of a 0.5M solution?

Accepted Answer

To find the number of moles needed, use the formula: moles = molarity × volume (in liters). Here, 0.5 M × 0.1 L = 0.05 mol.

Question 17

We have 100 mL of a solution of NaCl with a concentration of 0.5 mol L^-1 and want to dilute it to a concentration of 0.1 mol L^-1. How much water would we need to add to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

To dilute the solution from 0.5 mol/L to 0.1 mol/L, we use the dilution formula: C1V1 = C2V2. Here, C1 = 0.5 mol/L, V1 = 0.1 L, C2 = 0.1 mol/L. Solving for V2 gives V2 = 0.5 L. The amount of water to add is V2 - V1 = 0.5 L - 0.1 L = 0.4 L.

Question 18

A sample of a solution with concentration of 0.005 mol L^-1 has a molar absorptivity of 150 L mol^-1 cm^-1 at 350 nm. What absorbance will be measured by a UV-visible spectrophotometer when the sample is measured in a cuvette with a path length of 1 cm at 350 nm?

Accepted Answer

The answer of A sample of a solution with concentration...

Question 19

A substance, X, has a molar absorptivity of 1250 L mol^-1 cm^-1 at 325 nm. A sample of X gives an absorbance of 0.8 when measured in a UV-visible spectrophotometer at 325 nm with a path length of 1 cm. What is the concentration of the sample of X?

Accepted Answer

The absorbance of a sample is given by the Beer-Lambert law:A = εbcwhere A is the absorbance, ε is the molar absorptivity, b is the path length, and c is the concentration.In this problem, we are given the following information:ε = 1250 L mol^-1 cm^-1A = 0.8b = 1 cmWe can use the Beer-Lambert law to solve for the concentration:c = A/εb = 0.8/(1250 L mol^-1 cm^-1 * 1 cm) = 6.4 x 10^-4 mol L^-1Therefore, the concentration of the sample of X is 6.4 x 10^-4 mol L^-1.

Question 20

Two compounds, A and B, react with the stoichiometry 1:3, i.e. A + 3B. If there are 0.1 moles of A present in a sample initially, how many moles of B must be added for A to be completely consumed?

Accepted Answer

According to the stoichiometry, 1 mole of A reacts with 3 moles of B. Therefore, 0.1 moles of A will react with 0.3 moles of B.
