(a)
Interpretation:
Solute and solvent in air have to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Solution is used for description of any system that consists of mixture of substances that is dissolved in another substance. It has two components, solute and solvent. Component that is present in less quantity and is dissolved in another component is called solute while the one that dissolves solute in it and is present in more amounts is known as solvent.
(b)
Interpretation:
Solute and solvent in seawater have to be determined.

- A student weighs out a 4.80-g sample of aluminum bromide, transfers it to a 100-mL volumetric flask, adds enough water to dissolve it, and then adds water to the 100-mL mark. What is the molarity of aluminum bromide in the resulting solution?arrow_forwardA solution is defined as a homogeneous mixture. Is a small sample of air a solution? Is the atmosphere a solution?arrow_forwardDistinguish between the solute and solvent in each of the following solutions: a saltwater [NaCl(aq)]; b sterling silver (92.5%Ag,7.5%Cu); c air about 80%N2,20%O2. On what do you base your distinctions? Sterling silver is an alloy of 92.5 silver and 7.5 another metal, usually copper.arrow_forward
- Ammonium chloride is a strong electrolyte. Draw a molecular-level picture of this substance after it dissolves in water.arrow_forwardUse the term soluble, insoluble, or immiscible to describe the behavior of the following pairs of substances when they are shaken together: a.25mL of water and 1g of salt the resulting mixture is clear and colorless. b.25mL of water and 1g of solid silver chloride the resulting mixture is cloudy and solid settles out. c.25mL of water and 5mL of mineral oil the resulting mixture is cloudy and gradually separates into two layers.arrow_forwardssume a highly magnified view of a solution of HCI that allows you to “see” the HCl. Draw this magnified view. If you dropped in a piece of magnesium, the magnesium would disappear, and hydrogen gas would he released. Represent this change using symbols for the elements, and write the balanced equation.arrow_forward
- In a dilute solution of sodium chloride in water, the sodium chloride is the: a. solvent. b. solute. c. precipitate. d. reactant.arrow_forwardWrite a chemical equation representing the decomposition of water into two gaseous products. What are the products?arrow_forwardLead poisoning has been a hazard for centuries. Some scholars believe that the decline of the Roman Empire can be traced, in part, to high levels of lead in water from containers and pipes, and from wine that was stored in leadglazed containers. If we presume that the typical Roman water supply was saturated with lead carbonate, PbCO3 (Ksp = 7.4 1014), how much lead will a Roman ingest in a year if he or she drinks 1 L/day from the container?arrow_forward
- One mole of CaCl2 is represented as where represents Ca and represents Cl. Complete the picture showing only the calcium and chloride ions. The water molecules need not be shown. What is the molarity of Ca2+? of Cl-?arrow_forwardIndicate whether each of the following increases, decreases, or has no effect on the rate at which 10.0 g of sugar -dissolves in a liter of water. (a) using water from the refrigerator (b) shaking the sugar and water (c) using powdered sugar rather than crystals (d) using tap water rather than distilled waterarrow_forwardA reagent bottle contains 6.00 M NaOH solution. How many gram of NaOH must be dissolved to prepare 473 mL of such solution? (A) 71.0 g (B) 114 g (C) 507 g (D) 3150 garrow_forward
