Why flame tests are not useful for all elements?

Chemistry

Answer: Not all elements give out flame colors

Explanation:

The flame test has limitations such as

The test cannot detect low concentrations of most ions. The brightness of the signal varies from one sample to another. For example, the yellow emission from sodium is much brighter than the red emission from the same amount of lithium. Impurities or contaminants affect the test results

What is flame test?

A flame test is an analytical procedure used in chemistry to detect the presence of certain elements, primarily metal ions, based on each element's characteristic emission spectrum. The color of flames in general also depends on temperature

The normal freezing point of water (H2O) is 0.00 oC and its Kf value is 1.86 oC/m. A nonvolatile, nonelectrolyte that dissolves
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

3.74g of ethylene glycol must be added to decrease the freezing point by 0.400°C

Explanation:

One colligative property is the freezing point depression due the addition of a solute. The equation is:

ΔT=Kf*m*i

<em>Where ΔT is change in temperature = 0.400°C</em>

<em>Kf is freezing point constant of the solvent = 1.86°C/m</em>

<em>m is molality of the solution (Moles of solute / kg of solvent)</em>

<em>And i is Van't Hoff constant (1 for a nonelectrolyte)</em>

Replacing:

0.400°C =1.86°C/m*m*1

0.400°C / 1.86°C/m*1 = 0.215m

As mass of solvent is 280.0g = 0.2800kg, the moles of the solute are:

0.2800kg * (0.215moles / 1kg) = 0.0602 moles of solute must be added.

The mass of ethylene glycol must be added is:

0.0602 moles * (62.10g / mol) =

3.74g of ethylene glycol must be added to decrease the freezing point by 0.400°C
