What is the number of kilograms of solvent in a 0.70 molal solution containing 5.0 grams of solute?

1 answer:

3 0

Molar mass of solute is 30 g/mol
molality is defined as the number of moles of solute in 1 kg of solvent
number of moles of solute - 5.0 g / 30 g/mol = 0.17 mol
molality of solution is 0.70 mol/kg
the mass of solvent when there are 0.7 mol of solute - 1 kg
then the mass of solvent when there's 0.17 mol of solute - 0.17 mol / 0.7 mol/kg
= 0.242 kg
therefore mass of solvent is 0.242 kg

In the lewis structure of ch3oh, how many lone pairs of electrons are there? in the lewis structure of ch3oh, how many lone pair

Lunna [17]

The structure of Methanol (CH₃OH) is shown below. This structure contains 2 lone pair of electrons on oxygen (highlighted red). Electronic configuration of oxygen is,

Oxygen = 8 = 1s², 2s², 2px², 2py¹, 2pz¹

There are six electrons in valence shell of oxygen, among these six electrons two electrons are unpaired and involved in forming covalent bond with hydrogen and carbon, while remaining 4 electrons in pair (i.e. 2s², 2px²) exists as lone pairs.

Complete this equation for the dissociation of the electrolyte NaCl(aq). Omit water from the equation because it is understood t

ella [17]

1. Answer;

Equation;

-NaCl(aq) → Na{+}(aq) + Cl{-}(aq)

Explanation;

-The polar property of water allows ionic compounds such as sodium chloride to dissolve in water. (sodium chloride is an ionic compound).

-Sodium chloride dissociates in water into sodium ions and chloride ions as shown by the equation. Water molecules surrounds the negatively charged chloride ions and positive sodium ions and pulls them away into solution.

2. Answer;

Equation;

Fe(ClO4)3(aq) → Fe 3+(aq) + 3ClO4 - (aq)

Explanation;

Iron (iii) perchlorate (Fe(ClO4)3 dissociates in water into iron (iii) ion and perchlorate ion. Iron (iii) ion is positively charged while the perchlorate ion is negatively charged, they are pulled apart by the polar water molecules, a process called dissociation.
