Which of the following leads to a higher rate of diffusion?

1 answer:

tiny-mole [99]3 years ago

5 0

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Higher velocity of particles

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The diffusion rate is determined by a variety of factors which includes;

Temperature such that the higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy the particles will have, so they will move and mix more quickly and the diffusion rate will be high.
Concentration gradient such that the greater the difference in concentration, the quicker the rate of diffusion.
Higher velocity of particles increases the diffusion rate as this means more kinetic energy by the particles and hence the particles will mix and move faster, thus higher diffusion rate.

Why is it better to use the metric system, rather than the English system, in scientific measurement?

frez [133]

The metric system is based on powers of 10 so it is much easier to convert units, often just by moving the decimal point.

The concentration of urea in a solution prepared by dissolving 16 g of urea in 20 g of H2OH2O is ________% by mass. The molar ma

Arada [10]

Answer:

44

Explanation:

Given that :

Mass of solute = Mass of urea = 16g

Mass of water = 20g

Mass of solution = (mass of solute + mass of solvent) = (mass of urea + mass of water) = (16g + 20g) = 36g

Percentage Mass = (mass of solute / mass of solution) * 100%

Percentage Mass = (16 / 36) * 100%

Percentage Mass = 0.4444444 x 100%

Percentage Mass = 44.44%

Percentage Mass = 44%

The mole fraction of a non-electrolyte (MM 40.0 g/mol) in a saturated aqueous solution is 0.310. What is the molality of the sol

jeka57 [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The molality of non-electrolyte is 24.69 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mole fraction of saturated aqueous solution = 0.310

This means that 0.310 moles of non-electrolyte is present.

Moles of water (solvent) = 1 - 0.310 = 0.690 moles

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of water = 0.690 moles

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.690mol=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{18g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(0.690mol\times 18g/mol)=12.42g$

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molality}=\frac{n_{solute}\times 1000}{W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}$

Where,

$n_{solute}$ = Moles of solute (non-electrolyte) = 0.310 moles

$W_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (water) = 12.42 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molality of non-electrolyte}=\frac{0.310\times 1000}{12.42}\\\\\text{Molality of non-electrolyte}=24.96m$

Hence, the molality of non-electrolyte is 24.69 m
