Question

The solubility in hexane of organic compound O is measured and found to be 0.520-that would contain 120. mg of O at this temperature.Be sure your answer has the correct unit symbol and 3 significant digits.00.0olo88at 25. °C. Calculate the volume of a saturated solution of O in hexanemLE

Answer 1

According to the explanation given in the previous session, now we have hexane in an organic compound with the solubility of 0.520 g/mL at 25°C. We need to find the value of volume at 120.0 mg

1 gram = 1000 mg

120.0 mg = 0.12 grams

Now we can calculate the volume:

0.520g = 1 mL

0.12g = x mL

0.520x = 0.12

x = 0.12/0.520

x = 0.231 mL is the volume for this compound
