Asolution contains an unknown mass of dissolved barium ions. when sodium sulfate is added to the solution, a white precipitate forms. the precipitate is filtered and dried and then found to have a mass of 236 mg. what mass of barium was in the original solution? (assume that all of the barium was precipitated out of solution by the reaction.)

0.1388 g

Explanation:

The mass of obtained on precipitation = 236 mg

1 mg = 0.001 g

Thus, Mass of = 0.236 g

Molar mass of = 233.43 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

Thus,

Moles of = 0.001011 moles

According to the reaction,

Thus, moles of barium = 0.001011 moles

Molar mass of barium = 137.327 g/mol

Thus, Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 0.001011*137.327 g = 0.1388 g

plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food. plants use the raw materials of water, nutrients they absorb from soil, and carbon dioxide to make sugars the plant can use. energy from the sun and chlorophyll are also needed.
