a) calculate the percentage by the mass of water in the hydrated MgSO4.xH2O
b) calculate the moles , the amount of H2O released during heating and the amount (in moles) of the anhydrates MgSO4 remaining after heating
c) calculate the value of x in MgSO4.xH2O/ This is the empirical formula of the hydrated magnesium sulfate

Answers

Answer 1

From the calculation, the compound is MgSO4.2H2O.

What is a hydrated salt?

A hydrated salt is a salt that contains molecules of the water of crystallization.

a) Percentage of the water of crystallization =  3.211 g  - 2.539g/ 3.211 g * 100/1 = 21%

b) Number of moles of water of crystallization = 3.211 g  - 2.539g/ 18 g/mol =

0.037 moles

c) Number of moles of anhydrous salt =  2.539g/120 g/mol = 0.021 moles

Number of moles of hydrated salt = 3.211 g/120 + 18x

Hence;

0.021 = 3.211 /120 + 18x

0.021(120 + 18x) =  3.211

2.52 +  0.378x = 3.211

0.378x  = 3.211  - 2.52

x = 3.211  - 2.52/ 0.378

x = 2

Hence the compound is MgSO4.2H2O

Diffusion of Sucrose in Gelatin. A layer of gelatin in water 5 mm thick and con-taining 5.1 wt % gelatin at 293 K separates two solutions of sucrose. The concentra-tion of sucrose in the solution at one surface of the gelatin is constant at 2.0 g sucrose/100 mL solution, and 0.2 g/100 mL at the other surface. Calculate the flux of sucrose in kg sucrose/s

Answers

Answer:

the flux of sucrose is 9.072 × 10⁻⁷  kg sucrose / m² sec

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

water-gelatin solution separating two different concentration solutions of sucrose; 5.1 wt % gelatin at 293 K; at this conditions diffusivity of sucrose in water gelatin solution is;

[tex]D_{AB}[/tex] =  0.252 × 10⁻⁹ m²/sec.

we know that; 1 L = 0.001 m³, 1mL = 0.001 L

[tex]C_{A1}[/tex] = 2.0 g sucrose/100 mL = 2.0 × 10⁻³ kg sucrose / 100 × 10 ⁻³ L

[tex]C_{A1}[/tex]  = 2.0kg sucrose / 100 L

[tex]C_{A1}[/tex] = 2.0 kg sucrose / 100 × 10⁻³ m³

[tex]C_{A1}[/tex]  =  20 kg sucrose / m³

[tex]C_{A2}[/tex] =  0.2 g sucrose/100 mL = 0.2 × 10⁻³ kg sucrose / 100 × 10⁻³ × 10⁻³ L

[tex]C_{A2}[/tex] = 2 kg sucrose / m³

Thickness ß = 5 mm = 5 × 10⁻³ m

Now, flux of sucrose in kg sucrose / m³sec will be;

using the formula, [tex]N_{A}[/tex] = [tex]D_{AB}[/tex] /ß ( [tex]C_{A1}[/tex] - [tex]C_{A2}[/tex] )

we substitute

[tex]N_{A}[/tex] = (0.252 × 10⁻⁹ m²/sec /  5 × 10⁻³ m) ( 20 kg sucrose / m³ - 2 kg sucrose / m³ )

[tex]N_{A}[/tex] = (0.252 × 10⁻⁶ / 5) × 18 kg sucrose / m² sec

[tex]N_{A}[/tex]  = 4.536 ×  10⁻⁶  / 5 kg sucrose / m² sec

[tex]N_{A}[/tex] = 9.072 × 10⁻⁷  kg sucrose / m² sec

Therefore, the flux of sucrose is 9.072 × 10⁻⁷  kg sucrose / m² sec

Explanation:

A food company produces raspberry coulis as a topping for its best-selling line, double strength chocolate mousse pie. Fresh raspberries comprising 5% seeds, 20% pulp solids, and 75% water are homogenised and placed in a stainless steel vat. Sugar is added to give a raspberry:sugar mass ratio of 3.5:1. The mixture is blended, strained to remove the seeds, then heated to reduce the water content to 35%. Half a tonne of coulis is produced every day.

Required:
a. What mass of raspberries is required per week?
b. How much sugar is required per week?
c. What is the sugar content of the coulis?

Answers

Answer:

5357.1429kg per week

2142.8571 kg per week

Explanation:

Given that :

Fresh Raspberries :

5% = seeds

20% = pulp solids

75% = water

Raspberry : Sugar = 3.5 : 1

Water content = 35%

Coulis produced per day = 0.5 tonnes

Mass of Raspberry produced per week :

Mass is measured in kg;

1 tonne = 1000kg

0.5 tonne = (1000/2) kg = 500kg

Mass of Coulis produced per week = 500kg * 7 = 3500kg

Coulis contains 35% water, Raspberry required 75% water :

(3500 / 35) * 75 = 7500kg

Raspberry : Sugar ratio = 3.5 : 1

Mass of Raspberry :

[7500 - (1 /3.5) * 7500]

7500 - 2142.8571

= 5357.1429kg per week

B.

Sugar required per week:

(1/3.5) * 7500kg

= 2142.8571 kg per week

C.)

Sugar content in coulis :

Beryllium oxide, Beo, is an electrical insulator. How
many moles of beryllium oxide qre in a 250 gram
sample of the compound?

Answers

Answer:

There are 10.0 moles of beryllium oxide in a 250 grams sample of the compound.

Explanation:

We can calculate the number of moles (η) of BeO as follows:

[tex] \eta = \frac{m}{M} [/tex]

Where:

m: is the mass = 250 g

M: is the molar mass = 25.0116 g/mol

Hence, the number of moles is:

[tex] \eta = \frac{250 g}{25.0116 g/mol} = 10.0 moles [/tex]

Therefore, there are 10.0 moles of beryllium oxide in a 250 grams sample of the compound.

Matter is a substance that has some mass and can occupy some volume. The matter is mainly used in science. Matter can be solid, liquid or gas.

Matter is anything that is made up of atoms. Anything around us that can be physically seen and touched are matter. Ice, water and water vapors are example of matter.

Mass can also be represented as number of molecules. We also saw that matter occupy some volume and that volume is measured only in liter. Allegation is a form of liquid that we may utilize.

What are the three types of plate boundaries? What is the direction of movement at each boundary?

Answers

There are three kinds of plate tectonic boundaries: divergent, convergent, and transform plate boundaries.

This image shows the three main types of plate boundaries: divergent, convergent, and transform.

This image shows the three main types of plate boundaries: divergent, convergent, and transform. Image courtesy of the U.S. Geological Survey. Download image (jpg, 76 KB).

The Earth’s lithosphere, which includes the crust and upper mantle, is made up of a series of pieces, or tectonic plates, that move slowly over time.

A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. Along these boundaries, earthquakes are common and magma (molten rock) rises from the Earth’s mantle to the surface, solidifying to create new oceanic crust. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge and Pacific Ring of Fire are two examples of divergent plate boundaries.

When two plates come together, it is known as a convergent boundary. The impact of the colliding plates can cause the edges of one or both plates to buckle up into a mountain ranges or one of the plates may bend down into a deep seafloor trench. A chain of volcanoes often forms parallel to convergent plate boundaries and powerful earthquakes are common along these boundaries.

At convergent plate boundaries, oceanic crust is often forced down into the mantle where it begins to melt. Magma rises into and through the other plate, solidifying into granite, the rock that makes up the continents. Thus, at convergent boundaries, continental crust is created and oceanic crust is destroyed.

Two plates sliding past each other forms a transform plate boundary. One of the most famous transform plate boundaries occurs at the San Andreas fault zone, which extends underwater. Natural or human-made structures that cross a transform boundary are offset—split into pieces and carried in opposite directions. Rocks that line the boundary are pulverized as the plates grind along, creating a linear fault valley or undersea canyon. Earthquakes are common along these faults. In contrast to convergent and divergent boundaries, crust is cracked and broken at transform margins, but is not created or destroyed.
