A chemist prepares a solution of silver(I) nitrate AgNO3 by measuring out ×4.7102μmol of silver(I) nitrate into a 450.mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in /mmolL of the chemist's silver(I) nitrate solution. Be sure your answer has the correc

The concentration in /mmolL of the chemist's silver(I) nitrate solution is 0.01047 mmoles/litre.

Explanation:

Data given:

Number of moles of AgNO3 in micro mole 4.7102micromol.

The concentration is supposed to be in mmol so the micromole will be converted to milimole.

So, 1 micromole = 0.001 millimole

hence, 4.712micromole will be 0.004712 millimole.

Volume is given as 450ml which is converted into L

to convert ml into L it is divided by 1000

so 0.45 L is the volume.

Molarity or concerntration is calculated by the formula,

molarity =  

putting the values in the formula:

molarity =

              = 0.01047 mmoles/litre is the molarity of AgNO3 solution in 450 ml of solution.

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure  

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.
