500 mL solution of calcium chloride with a concentration of 0.75 mol/L. The mass of solute needed to make this solution is ___ ___ ___ ___ g.

41.63g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of CaCl₂  = 500mL  = 0.5L

Concentration  = 0.75mol/L

Unknown:

Mass of the solute needed = ?

Solution:

The mass of the solute can be derived using the expression below;

     Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

But,

   Number of moles  = Concentration x Volume

So;

     Mass  = Concentration x Volume x molar mas

Molar mass of CaCl₂  = 40 + 2(35.5) = 111g/mol

     Mass  = 0.75 x 0.5 x 111 = 41.63g

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.
