- Beakers (a), (b), and (c) are representations of tiny sections (not to scale) of mixtures made from pure benzene and pure water. Select which beaker gives proper representation of the result when the two pure substances are mixed.arrow_forwardPotassium sulfate has a solubility of 15 g/ 100 g water at 40C. A solution is prepared by adding 39.0 g of potassium sulfate to 225 g of water, carefully heating the solution, and cooling it to 40C. A homogeneous solution is obtained. Is this solution saturated, unsaturated, or supersaturated? The beaker is shaken, and precipitation occurs. How many grams of potassium sulfate would you expect to crystallize out?arrow_forwardSuppose that you are closing a cabin in the north woods for the winter and you do not want the water in the toilet tank to freeze. You know that the temperature might get as low as 30. C, and you want to protect about 4.0 L water in the toilet tank from freezing. Calculate the volume of ethylene glycol (density = 1.113 g/mL; molar mass = 62.1 g/mol) you should add to the 4.0 L water.arrow_forward

- Fluoridation is the process of adding fluorine compounds to the drinking water. Fluoridated water can help decrease tooth decay in the population. A concentration of 1 ppm of fluorine is typically required to provide adequate amounts. While daily water consumption per person is 151.0 gallons, most people only consume 7.6 of this water; the rest is used for cleaning or gardening. What percent of the sodium fluoride is “wasted”?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_forwardA Solution is formed when two or more substances combine to yield a mixture that is homogeneous at the molecular level. Is a container filled with water (H,O) and some beach sand (SiO2) a solution? O Yes, because SIO, dissolves completely in water to form Si(aq) and O (aq) solvated ions. O No, because water is not capable of forming homogeneous solutions. O No, because SiO, is a nonpolar covalent molecule that does not dissolve completely in water to form solvated ions. O Yes, because water reacts violently with beach sand to form H2SIO3, Metasilicic Acid, a diprotic strong acid.arrow_forward
- A student dissolved 230.8 grams of cesium chloride in 100.0 grams of 90 °C water. The student then cooled that solution to 20 °C . That cooled solution formed a solid (or "precipitate"), and after separating and drying this solid the student found that the solid weighed 43.8 grams. What is the solubility of cesium chloride in water at 20 °C ? < calculate your answer as grams of cesium chloride per 100 grams of water, but DO NOT include your units in your answer>arrow_forwardA geochemist measures the concentration of salt dissolved in Lake Parsons and finds a concentration of 69.32 g.L The geochemist also measures the concentration of salt in several nearby non-isolated lakes, and finds an average concentration of 5.02 g⋅L¯¹. Assuming the salt concentration in Lake Parsons before it became isolated was equal to the average salt concentration in nearby non-isolated lakes, calculate the percentage of Lake Parsons which has evaporated since it became isolated. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.arrow_forward1 A student mixes 1.0 mL of aqueous silver nitrate, AgNO3 (aq), with 1.0 mL of aqueous sodium chloride, Nacl (aq), in a clean test tube. What will the student observe? A silver mirror will coat the interior of the test tube. Bubbles will form within the liquid mixture. The mixture will remain colorless and transparent. The mixture appears to be white and cloudy. The mixture will remain colorless and transparent, but the test tube will feel hot.arrow_forward
