For this exercise, we will consider a solution of the nonvolatile solvent ethylene glycol, C2H4(OH)2, in water. If the solution

contains 1 mol of C2H4(OH)2 for each 4 mol of H2O, what is the mole fraction of water?

Answer:

Mole fraction of water is 0.8.

Explanation:

Mole fraction is defined as ratio of moles of single component to the sum of moles of all components present in the solution.

Moles of ethylene glycol = n_1=1 mol

Moles of water = n_2=4 mol

Mole fraction of ethylene glycol = \chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\chi_1=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+4 mol}=0.2

Mole fraction of water  = \chi_2=\frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}

\chi_2=\frac{4 mol}{1 mol+4 mol}=0.8

Write a net ionic equation that describes a slightly basic solution resulting from dissolving nac2h3o2 in water. Identify all of
Natali [406]

Answer: The net ionic equation will be as follows.

     CH_{3}COO^{-}(aq) + H_{2}O(l) \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COOH(aq) + OH^{-}(aq)

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the given reaction is as follows.

      CH_{3}COONa(aq) + H_{2}O(l) \rightleftarrow CH_{3}COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq)

We know that a strong acid or base will dissociate completely into a solvent whereas a weak acid or base dissociates partially into the solvent. Hence, the ionic equation will be as follows.  

CH_{3}COO^{-}(aq) + Na^{+}(aq) H_{2}O(l) \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COOH(aq) + Na^{+}(aq) + OH^{-}(aq) Now, we will cancel the spectator ions from the above equation. Therefore, the net ionic equation will be as follows.

     CH_{3}COO^{-}(aq) + H_{2}O(l) \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COOH(aq) + OH^{-}(aq)

or,  C_{2}H_{3}O^{-}_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O(l) \rightleftharpoons HC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}(aq) + OH^{-}(aq)

Calculate the equilibrium constant of the reaction below if the pressures are 1.0atm, 2.0 atm, and 1.0 atm respectively. PCl3 +
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

K = 0.5

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

PCl₃ + Cl₂ ⇄ PCl₅

The equilibrium constant, K, is defined as:

K = P PCl₅ / P PCl₃ * P Cl₂

<em>Where P represent the pressure at the equilibrium for each one of the gases involved in the equilibrium.</em>

<em />

As:

P PCl₅ = 1.0atm

P PCl₃ = 1.0atm

P Cl₂ = 2.0atm

K = 1.0atm / 1.0atm * 2.0atm

<h3>K = 0.5</h3>

Salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore _____.
saveliy_v [14]

Answer: Correct options are as follows.

  • salt is not chemically bonded to water.
  • salt and water retain their own chemical properties.

Explanation:

When salt is dissolved in water then it means that it is a physical change as salt has completely dissociated into ions but they are not chemically combined to the water molecules.

As a result, both salt and water will retain their chemical properties.

For example, NaCl when dissolved in water will dissociate as follows.

           NaCl \rightarrow Na^{+} + Cl^{-}

Only the particles of salt have evenly distributed in water.

And, when a components of a salt chemically combine with another substance then it will form a new compound.

Therefore, we can conclude that salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore:

  • salt is not chemically bonded to water.
  • salt and water retain their own chemical properties.

What is the cell potential of an electrochemical cell that has the half-reactions shown below?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

E°(Ag⁺/Fe°) = 0.836 volt

Explanation:

3Ag⁺ + 3e⁻ => Ag°;            E° = +0.800 volt

Fe° => Fe⁺³ + 3e⁻ ;             E° = -0.036 volt

_________________________________

Fe°(s) + 3Ag⁺(aq) => Fe⁺³(aq) + 3Ag°(s) ...    

E°(Ag⁺/Fe°) = E°(Ag⁺) - E°(Fe°) = 0.800v - ( -0.036v) = 0.836 volt
