Q

A sample of magnesium was heated. Why did it gain mass?

A

The magnesium gained mass because it reacted with oxygen atoms in the air forming magnesium oxide. The mass of magnesium oxide is greater than the mass of magnesium because oxygen atoms have been gained.

100cm3 = 0.1dm3. concentration = mass/volume = 1.5g/0.1dm3 = 15g/dm3.

33
Q

250 cm3 of a solution contains 5 g of sugar. What is the concentration of the sugar solution in g dm3?

A

250cm3 = 0.25dm3. concentration = mass/volume = 5g/0.25dm3 = 20g/dm3.

34
Q

A solution of copper sulfate has concentration 10 g dm3. What mass of copper sulfate will be dissolved in 100 cm3 of solution?

A

100cm3 = 0.1dm3. mass = concentration x volume = 10 x 0.1 = 1g
