We are going to use this equation:

ΔT = - i m Kf

when m is the molality of a solution 

i = 2

and ΔT is the change in melting point = T2- 0 °C

and Kf is cryoscopic constant = 1.86C/m

now we need to calculate the molality so we have to get the moles of NaCl first:

moles of NaCl = mass / molar mass

                         = 3.5 g / 58.44 

                         = 0.0599 moles


when the density of water = 1 g / mL and the volume =230 L

∴ the mass of water = 1 g * 230 mL = 230 g = 0.23Kg 

now we can get the molality = moles NaCl / Kg water

                                                =0.0599moles/0.23Kg

                                                = 0.26 m

∴T2-0 =  - 2 * 0.26 *1.86

∴T2 = -0.967 °C

Answer:

0.952 °C

Explanation:

The change in melting point is computed as:

ΔT = k*m*i

where ΔT is the difference between the melting point of water and of solution, k is a constant (1.86 °C*kg/mol for water), i is the van't Hoff factor (equal to 2 for sodium chloride because 2 ions are obtained after its dissolution), and m is the molality of the solution.

Molar mass of sodium chloride: 58.44 g/mol

Moles of of sodium chloride: mass / molar mass 3.5/58.44 = 0.059 mol

Density of water 1 kg/L

230 mL of water are equivalent to 0.23 L

mass of water: density * volume = 1*0.23 = 0.23 kg

Molality of the solution: m = moles of solute/ kg of solvent = 0.059/0.23 = 0.256

Finally:

ΔT = 1.86*0.256*2 = 0.952 °C

Water melting point: 0 °C

So, the solution melting point is: 0 - 0.952 = 0.952 °C

It is because of the small size and high electronegativity of nitrogen. 
<span>Nitrogen has very small size as compared to the halogens, which have much larger sizes. Due to this, they can not remain bonded to the nitrogen atom and hence are highly unstable. </span>

A 100 gram glass container contains 200 grams of water and 50.0 grams of ice all at 0°c. a 200 gram piece of lead at 100°c is ad
ASHA 777 [7]

0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}

Explanation:

Assuming that the final (equilibrium) temperature of the system is above the melting point of ice, such that all ice in the container melts in this process thus

  • E(\text{fusion}) = m(\text{ice}) \cdot L_{f}(\text{water}) = 66.74 \; \text{kJ} and
  • m(\text{water, final}) = m(\text{water, initial}) + m(\text{ice, initial}) = 0.250 \; \text{kg}

Let the final temperature of the system be t \; \textdegree{\text{C}}. Thus \Delta T (\text{water}) = \Delta T (\text{beaker}) = t(\text{initial})  - t_{0} = t \; \textdegree{\text{C}}

  • Q(\text{water}) &= &c(\text{water}) \cdot m(\text{water, final}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{water})= 1.047 \cdot t\; \text{kJ} (converted to kilojoules)
  • Q(\text{container}) &= &c(\text{glass}) \cdot m(\text{container}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{container})= 0.0837 \cdot t \; \text{kJ}
  • Q(\text{lead}) &= &c(\text{lead}) \cdot m(\text{lead}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{lead})= 0.0255 \cdot (100 - t)\; \text{kJ}

The fact that energy within this system (assuming proper insulation) conserves allows for the construction of an equation about variable t.

E(\text{absorbed} ) = E(\text{released})

  • E(\text{absorbed} ) = E(\text{fushion}) + Q(\text{water}) + Q(\text{container})
  • E(\text{released}) =  Q(\text{lead})

Confirm the uniformity of units, equate the two expressions and solve for t:

66.74 + 1.047 \cdot t + 0.0837 \cdot t = 0.0255 \cdot (80 - t)

t \approx -55.95\; \textdegree{\text{C}} < 0\; \textdegree{\text{C}} which goes against the initial assumption. Implying that the final temperature does <em>not</em> go above the melting point of water- i.e., t \le 0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}. However, there's no way for the temperature of the system to go below 0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}; doing so would require the removal of heat from the system which isn't possible under the given circumstance; the ice-water mixture experiences an addition of heat as the hot block of lead was added to the system.

The temperature of the system therefore remains at 0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}; the only macroscopic change in this process is expected to be observed as a slight variation in the ratio between the mass of liquid water and that of the ice in this system.

Equations can be balanced by using the half-reaction method. Which step should be completed immediately after finding the oxidat
Dovator [93]
After finding the oxidation states of atoms, you identify the half reactions (option c).

The half reactions are given by the change of the oxidation states of the atoms.

For example if Cu is in the left side with oxidation state 0 and in the other side with oxidation state 2+, then there you have a half reaction (oxidation reaction). And if you have O with oxidation state 0 in the left side  and with oxidation state 2- in the right side, there you have other half reaction (reducing reaction).
