Solids are defined by the following characteristics:
definite shape (rigid)
definite volume.
particles vibrate around fixed axes.
An oxidant or oxidizing agent is the substance in the redox reaction which undergoes reduction. Reduction occurs when the substance's charge has lowered after the reaction.The other process where the charge increases is called oxidtion.
Answer:
mass of carbon = 0.438g
Explanation:
mass percentage = 0.00438%
100.133 degree celsius is the boiling point of the solution formed when 15.2 grams of CaCl2 dissolves in 57.0 g of water.
Explanation:
Balanced eaquation for the reaction
CaCl2 + 2H20 ⇒ Ca(OH)2 + HCl
given:
mass of CaCl2 = 15.2 grams
mass of the solution = 57 grams
Kb (molal elevation constant) = 0.512 c/m
i = vont hoff factor is 1 as 1 mole of the substance is given as product.
Molality is calculated as:
molality = 
= 
= 0.26 M
Boiling point is calculated as:
ΔT = i x Kb x M
= 1 x 0.512 x 0.26
= 0.133 degrees
The boiling point of the solution will be:
100 degrees + 0.133 degrees (100 degrees is the boiling point of water)
= 100.133 degree celcius is the boiling point of mixture formed.
