To determine the freezing point depression of a LiCl solution, Toni adds 0.411 g of LiCl to the sample test tube along with 19.7
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

LiCl = 0.492 m

Explanation:

Molal concentration is the one that indicates the moles of solute that are contained in 1kg of solvent.

Our solute is lithium chloride, LiCl.

Our solvent is distilled water.

We do not have the mass of water, but we know the volume, so we should apply density to determine mass.

Density = mass / volume

Density . volume = mass

1 g/mL . 19.7 mL = 19.7 g

We convert g to kg → 19.7 g . 1 kg / 1000g = 0.0197 kg

Let's determine the moles of LiCl

0.411 g . 1 mol / 42.394 g = 9.69×10⁻³ moles

Molal concentration (m) = 9.69×10⁻³ mol / 0.0197 kg → 0.492 m

Which of the following is true for balancing equations?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

D) There must be equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.

Explanation:

The balancing equation must have equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.

The balance equation shoes mass is conserved thus followed the law of conservation of mas.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.
