(i) We start by calculating the mass of sugar in the solution:
mass of sugar = concentration × solution mass
mass of sugar = 2.5/100 × 500 = 12.5 g
Then now we can calculate the amount of water:
solution mass = mass of sugar + mass of water
mass of water = solution mass - mass of sugar
mass of water = 500 - 12.5 = 487.5 g
(ii) We use the following reasoning:
If 500 g solution contains 12.5 g sugar
Then X g solution contains 75 g sugar
X=(500×75)/12.5 = 3000 g solution
Now to get the amount of solution in liters we use density (we assume that is equal to 1):
Density = mass / volume
Volume = mass / density
Volume = 3000 / 1 = 3000 liters of sugar solution
D. the student's conclusion shows experimental bias
Polar protic solvents actually speed up the rate of the unimolecular substitution reaction because the large dipole moment of the solvent helps to stabilize the transition state. The highly positive and highly negative parts interact with the substrate to lower the energy of the transition state.
Answer:
Because the density of water is one
