At 298 K, the osmotic pressure of a glucose solution (C6H12O6 (aq)) is 12.1 atm. Calculate the freezing point of the solution. T

Anarel [89]

Answer: The freezing point of solution is -0.974°C

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

$\pi=iMRT$

where,

$\pi$ = osmotic pressure of the solution = 12.1 atm

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

M = molarity of solute = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the solution = 298 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$12.1atm=1\times M\times 0.0821\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\M=\frac{12.1}{1\times 0.0821\times 298}=0.495M$

This means that 0.495 moles of glucose is present in 1 L or 1000 mL of solution

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

$\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}$

Density of solution = 1.034 g/mL

Volume of solution = 1000 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.034g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of solution}}{1000mL}\\\\\text{Mass of solution}=(1.034g/mL\times 1000mL)=1034g$

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

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

Moles of glucose = 0.495 moles

Molar mass of glucose = 180.16 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.495mol=\frac{\text{Mass of glucose}}{180.16g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of glucose}=(0.495mol\times 180.16g/mol)=89.18g$

Depression in freezing point is defined as the difference in the freezing point of pure solution and freezing point of solution.

The equation used to calculate depression in freezing point follows:

$\Delta T_f=\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}$

To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:

$\Delta T_f=iK_fm$

Or,

$\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}=i\times K_f\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}$

where,

Freezing point of pure solution = 0°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 1 (For non-electrolytes)

$K_f$ = molal freezing point elevation constant = 1.86°C/m

$m_{solute}$ = Given mass of solute (glucose) = 89.18 g

$M_{solute}$ = Molar mass of solute (glucose) = 180.16 g/mol

$W_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (water) = [1034 - 89.18] g = 944.82 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0-\text{Freezing point of solution}=1\times 1.86^oC/m\times \frac{89.18\times 1000}{180.16g/mol\times 944.82}\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=-0.974^oC$

Hence, the freezing point of solution is -0.974°C

A beaker is filled to the 500 mL mark with alcohol. What increase in volume (in mL) does the beaker contain when the temperature

Aliun [14]

Answer:

"1.4 mL" is the appropriate solution.

Explanation:

According to the question,

$v_0=500$
$\alpha =1.12\times 10^{-4}$
$\Delta \epsilon = 25$

Now,

Increase in volume will be:

⇒ $\Delta V = \alpha\times v_0\times \Delta \epsilon$

By putting the given values, we get

$=1.12\times 10^{-4}\times 500\times 25$

$=1.12\times 10^{-4}\times 12500$

$=1.4 \ mL$

which type of chemical bond would be formed between two elements having electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 and 1s2 2s2 2p

OLga [1]

The electron configuration
1
s
2
2
s
2
2
p
6
3
s
2
3
p
2
is the element Silicon.
The key to deciphering this is to look at the last bit of information of the electron configuration
3
p
2
.
The '3' informs us that the element is in the 3rd Energy Level or row of the periodic table. The 'p' tells us that the element is found in the p-block which are all of the Groups to the right of the transition metals, columns 13-18. The superscript '2' tells us that the element is found in the 2nd column of the p-block Group 14.
