Calculate concentration using graph
where is the graph?
sorry thought i attached it
tell me the year and variant of the paper its IGCSE chem paper 6 right?
i dont know the year or module i just got send the pic for revision from a friend
draw a line from 30 degrees going vertically up till it reaches the curve line
then, when u reach the curve by going vertically, now go horizontally to the left to reach the Y axis
then that value will be your concentration but in different unit so now we gotta convert it to appropriate units
yeah that gives me 0.155 but is this the concentration???
no not yet
g/cm3 is not conc
conc = mole / volume and lest replace mole with its formula which is mole = mass / Molecular mass so now \[\sf conc = \frac{ mass}{ Molecular~mass \times volume }\]
so taking a close look at formula all you need to do is multiply the value from graph by 1/ molecular mass because \[\sf conc = \frac{ 1 }{ Molecular~mass } \times \frac{ mass }{ volume }\]
and then multiply what you get by the value u got from the graph
so i do 1.55 times \[\frac{1}{ 74 }\]
because 74 is the mr
or wait
just leave it be 1/74 but now the g/cm3 value divide by 1/1000 first this way its more clear that you are converting cm3 to dm3
sorry my error*
but 74 is the mr and the mr isnt in cm3 so i dont understand, isnt c=n/v where n is number of moles
wait i'll say it in different way
1/74 leave it be this is to multiply by g/dm3 value but now there is a problem your value is g/cm3 thus we need to change cm3 to dm3
\[\sf g \div \frac{ cm^3 }{ 1000 }\] which changes to \[\sf \frac{ g \times 1000 }{ cm^3 }\]
so multiply your graph value by 1000 to change it to g/dm3 is it clear so far?
no, i doing understand where the cm3 is coming from, if the graph value is g then what value is the cm3???
*dont
ha dont worry
im reaaaaally sorry i'll show it again using this correction now \[\sf \frac{ g \times 1000 }{ 100 ~cm^3 }\] and cancelling zeros in 1000/ 100 = 10 so just multiply your graph value by 10 instead
and only then multiply the result by 1/74
so 1.55*10*1/74
yes
so thats a concentration of 0.209 mol dm3, thanks for your help!!!
yeah i hope i didnt miss any point this time >_< sorry about that huge error
