Answer:
-0.1767°C (Option A)
Explanation:
Let's apply the colligative property of freezing point depression.
ΔT = Kf . m. i
i = Van't Hoff factot (number of ions dissolved). Glucose is non electrolytic so i = 1
m = molality (mol of solute / 1kg of solvent)
We have this data → 0.095 m
Kf is the freezing-point-depression constantm 1.86 °C/m, for water
ΔT = T° frezzing pure solvent - T° freezing solution
(0° - T° freezing solution) = 1.86 °C/m . 0.095 m . 1
T° freezing solution = - 1.86 °C/m . 0.095 m . 1 → -0.1767°C
Given parameters:
Volume of CuSO₄ = 250mL
Concentration of CuSO₄ = 2.01M
Unknown:
Mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = ?
To solve this problem, we must write the chemical relationship between both species.;
CuSO₄.5H₂O → CuSO₄ + 5H₂O
Now that we know the expression, it is possible to solve for the unknown mass.
First find the number of moles of CuSO₄;
Number of moles = Concentration x Volume
Take 250mL to L so as to ensure uniformity of units;
Volume = 250 x 10⁻³L
Input the parameters and solve for number of moles;
Number of moles = 250 x 10⁻³ x 2.01 = 0.5mol
From the equation;
1 mole of CuSO₄ is produced from 1 mole of CuSO₄.5H₂O
So 0.5 moles of CuSO₄ will be produced from 0.5 moles of CuSO₄.5H₂O
Now let us find the molar mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = 63.6 + 32 + 4(16) + 5(2x1 + 16) = 249.6g/mole
Mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = number of moles x molar mass
= 0.5 x 249.6
= 124.8g
The mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O is 124.8g
<span>The correct answer is weakened economic strength. When a declning population size starts to occur and develop, the country may experience a weakened economic strength, since the power to produce and create products and services has been hindered and weakened due to its declining population.</span>
