25.0 mL of a solution with concentration 0.30 M is diluted to a final volume of 150. mL. What is the final concentration?
Answer: the concentration of the solution after the dllution is 0.050 M
Explanation:
The question requires us to determine the concentration of a solution after a dilution process.
The following information was provided by the question:
Concentration of initial solution = C1 = 0.30 M
Volume taken from initial solution = V1 = 25.0 mL
Volume of final solution = V2 = 150 mL
When a solution is diluted, the number of moles of the substance remains the same. Thus, we can say that:
[tex]n_1=n_2[/tex]where (1) is the solution before dilution and (2) refers to the solution after dilution.
The number of moles of a substance can be obtained from the definition of molarity (or molar concentration), where the number of moles is divided by the volume of the solution:
[tex]molarity=\frac{number\text{ of moles}}{volume}\rightarrow number\text{ of moles = molarity}\times volume\rightarrow n=C\times V[/tex]Thus, we can write that for a dillution:
[tex]n_1=n_2\rightarrow C_1\times V_1=C_2\times V_2[/tex]From the expression above we can determine the concentration of the final solution. Applying the values provided by the question to the expression above, we'll have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \begin{equation*} C_1\times V_1=C_2\times V_2 \end{equation*} \\ \\ (0.30M)\times(25.0mL)=C_2\times(150mL) \\ \\ C_2=\frac{(0.30M)\times(25.0mL)}{(150mL)}=0.050M \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the concentration of the solution after the dilution is 0.050 M.

Explanation:
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
This is a process in which green plants and other organisms such as bacteria and algae manufacture their own food from simple inorganic matters such as sunlight,CO2,water to produce O2,glucose and water .Plants gets water and minerals when the roots absorbs from the ground,Xylem transports water and mineral salts from the roots to all parts of the plant i.e leaves.Photosynthesis takes place in the leaves where Co2 diffuse to a leaf via the stomata and reach the chloroplast.The chloroplast maximize absorption of sunlight energy.At the end of the process,water,oxygen and glucose is produced.The manufactured food is transported to all parts of a plant from the leaves via the Phloem tissues.How much heat in kJ is released when 0.677 mol NaOH(soln) is dissolved in water? (ΔH(soln) = –44.5 kJ/mol for NaOH)NaOH(s) rightwards arrow Na+(aq) + OH–(aq) + 44.5 kJ/mol
Explanation:
The dissolution reaction of NaOH is:
NaOH (s) -----> Na⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq) + 44.5 kJ/mol
ΔH(soln) = –44.5 kJ/mol
This reaction is exothermic, because the ΔH is negative. That's why the 44.5 kJ/mol appears in the products side, because heat is being released.
From the ΔH of solution we know that 1 mol of NaOH will realease 44.5 kJ when it dissolves. We have to find the heat released by 0.677 mol of NaOH.
Heat released = 0.677 moles * (-44.5 kJ/mol)
Heat released = - 30.1 kJ
Answer: -30.1 kJ is released when 0.677 mol of NaOH is dissolved.
How many liters of a 0.75 M solution can be made with 75 grams of lead (ll) oxide?
Step 1
Molarity is defined as:
Molarity (M or mol/L) = Moles of lead (II) oxide/Volume of solution (L)
Molarity = mass of lead (II) oxide/molar mass of lead (II) oxide x volume (L) (1)
-------------------------
Step 2
The molar mass of PbO = 223 g/mol
PbO = lead (ll) oxide
------------------------
Step 3
Data provided:
Molarity = 0.75 M
Mass of PbO = 75 g
------------------------
Step 4
Procedure:
The volume of the solution is cleared from (1):
Volume (L) = mass PbO/(molar mass PbO x Molarity)
Volume (L) = 75 g/(223 g/mol x 0.75 mol/L) = 0.45 L approx.

Consider the balanced chemicalreaction below and determine thepercent yield for carbon dioxide if 4.50moles of propane yielded 7.64 moles ofcarbon dioxide.C3H8 +502 + 3CO2 + 4H2O-→
To solve this, we must know some terms:
% Yield = (Actual yield / Theoretical yield) x 100
Actual yield is already given = 7.64 moles
To obtain the theoretical yield, we use stoichiometry and proceed like this:
C3H8 + 5O2 => 3CO2 + 4H2O
1 mole C3H8 ------- 3 x 1 mole CO2
4.5 moles C3H8 ------ x
x = 13.5 moles
Therefore, our % yield:
% Yield = (7.64 moles/13.5 moles) x 100 = 57 % approximately
Answer: % yield = 57 %

How many grams of CO are produced when 33.0 g of C reacts? Fe2O3(s)+3C(s)→2Fe(s)+3CO(g)
Answer
77.0 grams of CO are produced when 33.0 g of C reacts.
Explanation
Given:
Mass of C = 33.0 g
Equation: Fe₂O₃(s) + 3C(s) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO(g)
What to find;
The grams of CO that are produced when 33.0 g of C reacts.
Step-by-step solution:
Step 1: Convert 33.0 g of C to moles.
Using the formula for moles and the molar mass of C = 12.0 g/mol, the moles of C is
[tex]\begin{gathered} Moles=\frac{Mass}{Molar\text{ }mass} \\ \\ Moles\text{ }of\text{ }C=\frac{33.0\text{ }g}{12.0\text{ }g\text{/}mol}=2.75\text{ }mol \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 2: Determine the moles of CO produced.
Using the mole ratio of C and CO from the balance equation and the moles of C in step 1; the moles of CO produced is calculated as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3\text{ }mol\text{ }C=3\text{ }mol\text{ }CO \\ \\ 2.75\text{ }mol\text{ }C=x \\ \\ x=\frac{2.75\text{ }mol\text{ }C}{3\text{ }mol\text{ }C}\times3\text{ }mol\text{ }CO \\ \\ x=2.75\text{ }mol\text{ }CO \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 3: Convert the moles of CO produced to mass in grams.
The moles of CO produced in step above can be converted to mass in grams as shown below
[tex]\begin{gathered} Mass=Moles\times Molar\text{ }mass \\ \\ Molar\text{ }mass\text{ }of\text{ }CO=12.0+16.0=28.0\text{ }g\text{ /}mol \\ \\ Mass\text{ }of\text{ }CO\text{ }produced=2.75\text{ }mol\times28.0\text{ }g\text{/}mol \\ \\ Mass\text{ }of\text{ }CO\text{ }produced=77.0\text{ }g \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, 77.0 grams of CO are produced when 33.0 g of C reacts.
Electrons in atoms exist in particular energy levels. A _______ must be emitted or absorbed to move between energy levels.Question 19 options:A) photonB) electronC) particleD) quantum
Answer: We can complete the sentence as:
"Electrons in atoms exist in particular energy levels. A photon must be emitted or absorbed to move between energy levels" (letter A).
Explanation:
The question requires us to choose the best option to complete the sentence: "A ________________ must be emitted or absorbed to move between energy levels".
Energy levels are fixed distances from the nucleus of an atom where electrons can be found. Energy levels can be compared to stairs in a staircase: we can stand on a step, on the previous step or the next step, but never between them; this is what happens to electrons, as they can occupy one energy level or another but not the space between energy levels.
To move from one energy level to another, an electron must absorb energy (to move to a higher level) or emit energy (to move to a lower level). The energy difference between a lower starting level and a higher ending level must correspond to the energy of a photon of light absorbed in order to make the transition between energy levels possible. Additionally, electrons are usually unstable at excited states (when at a higher energy level that it was initially), and the electron quickly returns to the lower energy level emitting the excess of energy in the form of light (as a photon of light).
Therefore, considering the information above, we can complete the sentence as:
"Electrons in atoms exist in particular energy levels. A photon must be emitted or absorbed to move between energy levels" (letter A).

How many moles of magnesium is 5.01 x 10^22 atoms of magnesium?
The question requires us to calculate the number of moles that corresponds to 5.01 x 10^22 atoms of magnesium.
To solve this question, we'll need to use the Avogadro constant. This number, defined as 6.02 x 10^23, relates the number of constituent particles (molecules, atoms or ions, for example) in a sample with the amount of substance in that sample. We can use it by saying that 1 mol of a substance corresponds to 6.02 x 10^23 constituent particles of this substance.
Then, using the information above, we can calculate the number of moles in 5.01 x 10^22 atoms of magnesium (Mg):
6.02 x 10^23 atoms of Mg --------------- 1 mol of Mg
5.01 x 10^22 atoms of Mg ---------------- x
Solving for x, we'll have:
[tex]x=\frac{(5.01\times10^{22}\text{ atoms of Mg)}\times(1\text{ mol of Mg)}}{(6.02\times10^{23}\text{ atoms of Mg)}}=0.0832\text{ mol of Mg}[/tex]Therefore, 5.01 x 10^22 atoms of magnesium corresponds to 0.0832 mol of this element.

The magnesium tracts reacts faster because It has a higher concentration of magnesium.C. The powdered magnesium react faster because it has a greater surface area.D. The magnesium react faster it will create a higher temperature once the reaction starts
Explanation:
The rate of a reaction is defined as the rate of disappearance of reactants in a reaction or the rate of conversion of appearance of products during a reaction.
The rate of a reaction depends on the concentration of the reactants, the temperature of the reaction, the nature of reactants, and the presence or absence of catalysts during the reaction.
The surface of reactants comes into play. Reactants with high surface areas react faster than reactants with fewer surface areas. Hence, powdery reactants react faster than solid reactants.
Answer: C. The powdered magnesium react faster because it has a greater surface area.

The pOH of this solution is 6.2 as pH is 7.80, The hydronium ion concentration is 1.58*10^-8 M, The hydroxide ion concentration is 6.3*10^-7 M
What is pH?
pH is a numerical indicator of how acidic or basic aqueous or other liquid solutions are. The phrase, which is frequently used in chemistry, biology, and agronomy, converts the hydrogen ion concentration, which typically ranges between 1 and 1014 gram-equivalents per litre, into numbers between 0 and 14. The hydrogen ion concentration in pure water, which has a pH of 7, is 107 gram-equivalents per litre, making it neutral (neither acidic nor alkaline). A solution with a pH below 7 is referred to as acidic, and one with a pH over 7 is referred to as basic, or alkaline.
pKw = pH + pOH
14 = 7.80+ pOH
pOH = 14 -7.80 = 6.2
pH = - log [H+]
[H+] = 1.58*10^-8 M
pOH = - log [OH-]
