Base is the opposite of Acidic.  So, with this knowledge, HCL can be ruled out as it is an acid.  It must then be H20 that is the base (which calling it a base can be deceiving if you are looking at the ph and not the equation)

A solution is made by mixing equal masses of methanol, CH 4 O , and ethanol, C 2 H 6 O . Determine the mole fraction of each com
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Mole fraction of CH_4O = 0.58

Mole fraction of C_2H_6O = 0.42

Explanation:

Let the mass of CH_4O and C_2H_6O = x g

Molar mass of CH_4O = 33.035 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles_{CH_4O}= \frac{x\ g}{33.035\ g/mol}

Moles_{CH_4O}=\frac{x}{33.035}\ mol

Molar mass of C_2H_6O = 46.07 g/mol

Thus,

Moles= \frac{x\ g}{46.07\ g/mol}

Moles_{C_2H_6O}=\frac{x}{46.07}\ mol

So, according to definition of mole fraction:

Mole\ fraction\ of\ CH_4O=\frac {n_{CH_4O}}{n_{CH_4O}+n_{C_2H_6O}}

Mole\ fraction\ of\ CH_4O=\frac{\frac{x}{33.035}}{\frac{x}{33.035}+\frac{x}{46.07}}=0.58

Mole fraction of C_2H_6O = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42

Which of these properties is the best one to use for identification of an element? 1.the number of neutrons in the atomic nucleu
Verdich [7]

The right answer is 2.

The number of protons contained in a nucleus (called an atomic number) is characteristic of a chemical element. For a given atomic number, the number of neutrons defines different "types" of this element: isotopes. The variation of the number of protons of the nucleus of an atom, during a nuclear reaction for example, causes a change of the element studied.
