$\boxed {\boxed {\sf x\approx 12.0 \ moles \ HCl}}$

Explanation:

Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter.

$molarity= \frac{moles \ of \ solute}{liters \ of solution}$

We know the solution has a volume of 7.98 liters and it has a molarity of 1.50 M HCl.

1 molar (M) is 1 mole per liter, so the molarity is also 1.50 moles of HCl per liter.

We know 2 values for the variables, but the value for moles of solute is unknown, so we use x.

molarity= 1.50 mol HCl/L moles of solute=xliters of solution = 7.98 L

Substitute the values into the formula.

$1.50 \ mol \ HCl/L=\frac{x}{7.98 \ L}$

We are trying to solve for x, the moles of solute, so we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 7.98 liters and the inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides of the equation by 7.98 liters.

$7.98 \ L *1.50 \ mol \ HCl/L=\frac{x}{7.98 \ L} * 7.98 \ L$

$7.98 \ L *1.50 \ mol \ HCl/L=x$

The units of liters (L) cancel each other out.

$7.98 *1.50 \ mol \ HCl=x$

$11.97 \ mol \ HCl=x$

The original measurements of molarity and volume both have 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the tenths place.

The 9 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 1 to a 2. We leave a 0 in the tenths place to ensure there are 3 significant figures.

$12.0 \ mol \ HCl \approx x$

There are approximately 12.0 moles of solute in the solution.

mechanics (greek is that area of science concerned with the behaviour of physical bodies when subjected to forces or displacements, and the subsequent effects of the bodies on their environment. the scientific discipline has its origins in ancient greece with the writings of aristotle and archimedes[1][2][3] (see history of classical mechanics and timeline of classical mechanics). during the early modern period, scientists such as galileo, kepler, and newton laid the foundation for what is now known as classical mechanics. it is a branch of classical physics that deals with particles that are either at rest or are moving with velocities significantly less than the speed of light. it can also be defined as a branch of science which deals with the motion of and forces on objects. the field is yet less widely understood in terms of quantum theory.

Liquid from a brewery fermentation contains 10% ethanol and 90% water. part of the fermentation product (50,000 kg/h) is pumped to a distillation column on the factory site. under current operating conditions, a distillate of 45% ethanol and 55% water is produced from the top of the column at a rate of one-tenth that of the feed. what is the composition of the waste "bottoms" from the still?
