For an aqueous solution of MgBr2, a freezing point depression occurs due to the rules of colligative properties. Since MgBr2 is an ionic compound, it acts a strong electrolyte; thus, dissociating completely in an aqueous solution. For the equation:

                                ΔTf<span> = (K</span>f)(<span>m)(i)
</span>where: 
ΔTf = change in freezing point = (Ti - Tf)
Ti = freezing point of pure water = 0 celsius
Tf = freezing point of water with solute = ?
Kf = freezing point depression constant = 1.86 celsius-kg/mole (for water)
m = molality of solution (mol solute/kg solvent) = ?
i = ions in solution = 3

Computing for molality:
Molar mass of MgBr2 = 184.113 g/mol

m = 10.5g MgBr2 / 184.113/ 0.2 kg water = 0.285 mol/kg


For the problem, 
ΔTf = (Kf)(m)(i) = 1.86(0.285)(3) = 1.59 = Ti - Tf = 0 - Tf

Tf = -1.59 celsius

Sedaia [141]

Answer: On losing 6 moles of water, cobalt chloride forms unstable violet-coloured ions, before generating its stable blue-coloured anhydrous form.

Explanation:

The hydrated cobalt chloride loses its 6 water of crystallization, then dissociates into ions: cobalt ions and chlorine ions that appear violet, and quickly combined to form the stable anhydrous Cobalt chloride with blue colour.

elena-s [515]

The reactivity of metals increases as you move left in a period and as you move down in a group, so Marie needs to know the period and group of the element inside each box. Boxes that show locations in groups 1 or 2 or in period 8 contain the most reactive elements.

vova2212 [387]
<span>In normal conditions gas particles remain very distant from each other. They rarely collide and are stable. When temperature increases the gas particles begin to move faster and collide more, reducing the distance. When pressure increases the gas particles also pick up kinetic speed and are also closer to each other.</span>
