Answer:

Here are some disadvantages

Explanation:

Hard water does not pose a health threat.

Hard water can contribute to dry skin and hair.

Hard water is unfit for washing as it is difficult to form lather with soap.

Trimming of kettles will take place due to the formation of magnesium and carbonates of calcium.

The Taste/Smell

Lather

Dishwashing Ability

Clothes-Washing Ability

Answer:

If you use hard water for a steam or steam table, it has to be changed more often. Trust me thats what I have to do.

Also hard water can not be safe to drink. Also hard water sucks cause it sticks on your windows and is harder to get off.

A solution was prepared by dissolving 0.800 g of sulfur S8, in 100.0 g of acetic acid, HC2H3O2. Calculate the freezing point and

sammy [17]

Answer: The freezing point of solution is 16.5°C and the boiling point of solution is 118.2°C

Explanation:

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

$Molality=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ in grams}}$

Where,

$m_{solute}$ = Given mass of solute $(S_8)$ = 0.800 g

$M_{solute}$ = Molar mass of solute $(S-8)$ = 256.52 g/mol

$W_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (acetic acid) = 100.0 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molality of solution}=\frac{0.800\times 1000}{256.52\times 100.0}\\\\\text{Molality of solution}=0.0312m$

Calculation for freezing point of solution:

Depression in freezing point is defined as the difference in the freezing point of water and freezing point of solution.

$\Delta T_f=\text{freezing point of acetic acid}-\text{Freezing point of solution}$

To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:

$\Delta T_f=iK_fm$

or,

$\text{Freezing point of acetic acid}-\text{Freezing point of solution}=iK_fm$

where,

Freezing point of acetic acid = 16.6°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)

$K_f$ = molal freezing point depression constant = 3.59°C/m

m = molality of solution = 0.0312 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$16.6^oC-\text{freezing point of solution}=1\times 3.59^oC/m\times 0.0312m\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=16.5^oC$

Hence, the freezing point of solution is 16.5°C

Calculation for boiling point of solution:

Elevation in boiling point is defined as the difference in the boiling point of solution and freezing point of pure solution.

The equation used to calculate elevation in boiling point follows:

$\Delta T_b=\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of acetic acid}$

To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:

$\Delta T_b=iK_bm$

or,

$\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of acetic acid}=iK_fm$

where,

Boiling point of acetic acid = 118.1°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)

$K_f$ = molal boiling point elevation constant = 3.08°C/m

m = molality of solution = 0.0312 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Boiling point of solution}-118.1^oC=1\times 3.08^oC/m\times 0.0312m\\\\\text{Boiling point of solution}=118.2^oC$

Hence, the boiling point of solution is 118.2°C

By how much will the water temperature increases if 1046 J of heat energy are added. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g • °

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Option A

250 degrees Celcius

Explanation:

If 1046J of heat energy is added to water, the water will experience a rise in temperature, at a rate that is directly proportional to its specific heat capacity.

Mathematically, this can be seen as $Q=C\Delta T$

Where C = specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g • °C.

Q = heat energy = 1046 J

$\Delta T =1046/4.148=250 degrees Celcius$

Therefore, the increase in temperature that will be experienced, is for 250 degrees Celcius

Which best describes a stock solution that is used in a dilution?

RSB [31]

A stock solution is a solution of a known concentration. Stock solution has a high concentration and therefore, the known amount of stock solution is used for preparing different concentrations, by diluting the same with the known amount of the solvent being used, such as water.
