C12H24O2 +17 O2-------->12CO2 + 12H2O

<h3>Combustion:-</h3>

combustion is a chemical reaction that often involves the presence of oxygen and produces heat and light in the form of flames.

<h3>Lauric acid:-</h3>

Lauric acid has a 12-carbon backbone and is a saturated medium-chain fatty acid. In addition to being a key component of coconut oil and palm kernel oil, lauric acid occurs naturally in a variety of plant and animal fats and oils.

White solid lauric acid has a little bay oil odour to it.

Lauric acid is a cheap, non-toxic, and easy-to-handle substance that is frequently employed in lab studies on melting-point depression. Because lauric acid is a solid at ambient temperature but a liquid at boiling temperatures, it can be used to test different solutes to determine their molecular weights.

1. Which of the following pairs of factors affects the solubility of a particular substance? (1 point)
Lina20 [59]
<h2>Question no 1:</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option A which is temperature and the nature of solute and solvent

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The solubility of a substance is its ability to dissolve in a particular solution.
  • Solubility is highly dependent on the temperature and nature of solute and solvent.
  • It is directly proportional to the temperature. As we increase the temperature, the solubility of substantial increases but for the exothermic reactions, solubility is inversely proportional to temperature.
  • Solubility is absolutely dependent on the nature of solute and solvent, as polar solute and solvents have high solubility than non polar.
<h2>Question no. 2</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option B which is a large amount of solute.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • A concentrated solution contains the maximum amount of solute which can be dissolved in the solvent.
  • For example, in water sugar solution concentrated solution will contain a large amount of sugar dissolved in water without the addition of heat.
  • In dilute solution, there is a small amount of solute.
<h2>Question no. 3:</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option B which is molarity × liters of solution.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Molarity of a solution is the total number of moles of solute per unit volume of solution.

Its formula is:

             Molarity = Number of moles of the solute/volume of solution in liters.

    A number of moles of solute =  Molarity × Volume of the solution.

So the number of moles of solute is equal to the molarity and volume of solution. Hence correct option is B.

<h2>Question no 4.</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option D. Molarity of the dilute solution = 0.81 M

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given data:

        initial volume = V1 = 225 mL = 0.225 L

        Initial molarity = M1 = 0.80M

        Final volume =  V2 = 1 L

        Final molarity  = M2 = ?

Solution:

It is the dilution of the stock solution and the formula is given below:

V1M1 = V2M2

M2 = V1.M1/V2

By putting values in the formula:

M2 = 0.225 × 0.8/1

M2= 0.18

So the final molarity of the solution will be 0.18 M. Hence the correct answer is option D.

<h2>Question no. 5</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option B which is supersaturation.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Colligative properties of the solution are the properties which are not dependent on the number of particles of the solute in the solution.
  • While supersaturation of the solution means the solution containing the highest number of solute particles dissolved in the solution.
  • Since supersaturation is dependent on a number of solutes, it is not a colligative property.
<h2>Question no 6.</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option B/C, "which disrupts crystal formation of the solvent".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Depression of freezing point is the colligative property of the solution.
  • Which the lowering of the freezing point of a solution by adding the solute.
  • The addition of solute disrupts the crystal formation in the solvent, as it disrupts the intermolecular forces between solute particles.
  • Hence option B and C are the correct options because both have the same statement.
<h2>Question no 7.</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option D which is 142.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Given data:</u>

Volume of solution = 167 ml

Percentage of solution = 85%

The volume of alcohol =?

<u>Solution:</u>

Percentage of solution ( v/v) = volume of solute/volume of solution × 100

The volume of solute = percentage × volume of solution/100

By putting values in above formula:

Volume of alcohol = 85 × 167/100 = 141.95 ml

<em><u>Hence the correct answer is option D which is approximately 142(141.95).</u></em>
