Part a
what is the mass of the water?
express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer

mass of 1 mole = 18g

mass of 1 mL = 1g

the unit used is gram

Explanation:

There are two ways to find mass of water:

1st way:

If we find Mass of water for one mole of water:

For this purpose we use mole formula as below

                          no. of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

if we find mass for one mole of water:

then

no. of moles of water = 1 mol

molar mass of water = H₂O = (1x2 +1x16) = 18 g/mol

mass of water = ?

Put the value in the mole formula

          no. of moles = mass in grams / molar mass . . . . . . . . . . . . (1)

by rearranging the formula (1)

            mass in grams = no. of moles x molar mass

            mass in grams = 1 mole x 18 g/mol

            mass in grams =  18 g

So for one mole of water the mass of water is 18 g and the unit for it is gram.

2nd way:

We can find mass of water by another way too

if we find the mass 1 mL of water

then the formula will be used is

                              D = m/v

where D is density

m is the mass

and v is the volume

So

density of water for 1 mL (D) = 1 g/ml

volume of water = 1 mL

mass of water = ?

By Rearranging density formula for mass

                                m = D/v (2)

put the values in equation 2

                                m= 1gmL⁻¹ / 1 mL

                                 m= 1g

So the mass of 1mL is 1g

2fe + 3h2so4 -> fe2(so4)3 + 3h2

it is necessary to balance equations in order to get the proper amount of reactants as well as products in order not to make a miscalculation.

you cannot change the subscripts as that would change the substance itself. for instance, diatomic elements such as h2 only have the subscript two when a gas. another example would be so4, if you were to change the subscript, the element would no longer be sulfate.

we change the coefficients instead as that only changes the number of molecules rather than the substance itself.

hope this !

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.
