The new lowered freezing point of the benzene mixture is determined as 2.4°C.

<h3>Effect of impurities in freezing point</h3>

The presence of impurities lowers the vapour pressure of the solution since the concentration of the solution is increased.

Change in temperature of the new mixture = 0.613 x 5.5°C = 3.1 °C

New freezing point = 5.5°C - 3.1°C = 2.4°C

Thus, the new lowered freezing point of the benzene mixture is determined as 2.4°C.

How many molecules of sugar are there in 1 can of soda?

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

$5.8\cdot 10^{22}$

Explanation:

Since no information was provided about the can of soda, let's take an example of 1 can of 12 fl oz (368 g) Coca-Cola.

The nutrition facts state that it contains 33 g of sugar. In order to calculate the number of molecules, we firstly need to know the molecular formula of sugar. Sugar can be represented by $C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}$ .

Our first step is to find the molar mass of sugar:

$M_{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}} = 342.3 g/mol$

Secondly, dividing mass of sugar, $m = 33 g$ , by the molar mass will yield the number of moles of sugar:

$n_{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}=\frac{m}{M}$

Finally, multiplying moles by the Avogadro's constant will yield the number of molecules:

$N_{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}=n_{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}\cdot N_A =\frac{m}{M} \cdot N_A = \frac{33 g}{342.3 g/mol} \cdot 6.022 \cdot 10^{23} mol^{-1} = 5.8\cdot 10^{22}$

1.Which statement best describes scientific laws

gtnhenbr [62]

In a way, all of the answers could be argued for (for example: in the first option: if the scientists' opinions are understood to be "informed understanding of the causes of events"), but one of the options is the best:
Scientific laws describe specific relationships in nature without offering
an explanation.

The reason why I think this is true is that many laws are phased too short and too concise to provide comprehensive explanations, instead they describe the relationships that must hold.

One of the options is pplain false:
Scientific laws explain why natural events occur. -"Scientific laws were theories that have been tested, proven, and adopted as laws." - since they are not adopted as laws.
