Since 1 L = 1000 cm\u00b3, we can calculate the mass of 1 L of solution:<br>[<br>\\text{Mass of 1 L of solution} = \\text{Density} \\times \\text{Volume}<br>]<br>[<br>\\text{Mass of 1 L of solution} = 1.135 \\, \\text{g\/cm}^3 \\times 1000 \\, \\text{cm}^3 = 1135 \\, \\text{g}<br>]<br>Thus, 1 L of solution weighs 1135 grams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">b) How many grams of hydrogen peroxide are in 1 L?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the solution is 30.0% by mass hydrogen peroxide, the mass of H\u2082O\u2082 in 1 L of solution is:<br>[<br>\\text{Mass of H\u2082O\u2082} = \\frac{30.0}{100} \\times 1135 \\, \\text{g} = 340.5 \\, \\text{g}<br>]<br>So, there are 340.5 grams of hydrogen peroxide in 1 L of solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">c) Molarity and Molality of the solution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Molarity:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Molarity is defined as moles of solute per liter of solution. To calculate the molarity, we first need to convert the mass of hydrogen peroxide to moles:<br>[<br>\\text{Moles of H\u2082O\u2082} = \\frac{\\text{Mass of H\u2082O\u2082}}{\\text{Molar mass of H\u2082O\u2082}}<br>]<br>[<br>\\text{Moles of H\u2082O\u2082} = \\frac{340.5 \\, \\text{g}}{34.0147 \\, \\text{g\/mol}} = 10.0 \\, \\text{mol}<br>]<br>Since the solution is 1 L, the molarity (M) is:<br>[<br>\\text{Molarity} = \\frac{10.0 \\, \\text{mol}}{1 \\, \\text{L}} = 10.0 \\, \\text{M}<br>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Molality:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Molality is defined as moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. We need to find the mass of the solvent, which is the mass of water in the solution. The mass of water is:<br>[<br>\\text{Mass of water} = \\text{Mass of solution} &#8211; \\text{Mass of H\u2082O\u2082} = 1135 \\, \\text{g} &#8211; 340.5 \\, \\text{g} = 794.5 \\, \\text{g} = 0.7945 \\, \\text{kg}<br>]<br>Now, we can calculate the molality (m):<br>[<br>\\text{Molality} = \\frac{10.0 \\, \\text{mol}}{0.7945 \\, \\text{kg}} = 12.6 \\, \\text{mol\/kg}<br>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The mass of the solution in 1 L is 1135 g.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The mass of hydrogen peroxide in 1 L is 340.5 g.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The molarity of the solution is 10.0 M.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The molality of the solution is 12.6 mol\/kg.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Calculate the molarity of a 30.0% hydrogen peroxide solution.The reported density of 30% hydrogen peroxide is 1.135 g\/cm3.(H2O2= 34.0147 g\/mol) a) How many grams of solution in 1L? b) howmany grams in hydrogen peroxide are in 1 L? c) What is the molarityand molality of the solution?
