Covalent solutes are considered non-electrolytes. What does this mean for the conductivity of the solution?

Chemistry
2 answers:
GuDViN [60]3 years ago

Non electrolytes do not dissociate at all in solution and thus they do not produce ions and hence non electrolytes solutions do not conduct electricity. They are typically polar covalent substances that dissolve in water as molecules instead of ions. An example of a non electrolyte is sugar which dissolves in water but does not form ions.

Answer:

This means that this type of solution would not be able to conduct electricity.

Explanation:

Solutions made of electrolytes are able to conduct electricity because they are made from ionic compounds. On the other hand, covalent solutes don't form ions and therefore are not able to conduct electrical charges.

How many molecules are there in 218.4 grams of C0CI2?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

10.24 ×10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of COCl₂ = 218.4 g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of COCl₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 218.4 g/ 129.84 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.7 mol

1 mole contain 6.022×10²³ molecules.

1.7 mol × 6.022×10²³ molecules / 1mol

10.24 ×10²³ molecules

3. If x electrons are needed to displace 108 g silver from a solution which contains Ag ions,
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Choice A. x electrons would be required for displacing 9\; \rm g of aluminum from a solution of \rm Al^{3+} ions.

Assumption: by "\rm Ag ions" the question meant \rm Ag^{+} with a charge of +1 on each ion.

Explanation:

The question states that the relative atomic mass of \rm Ag is 108. In other words, each mole of

Therefore, that 108\; \rm g\! of silver that were formed would contain 1\; \rm mol of silver atoms.

Metallic silver would precipitate out of this \rm Ag^{+} solution only after these ions are turned into \rm Ag atoms.

One \rm Ag^{+} ion carries one unit of positive electrical charge. On the other hand, each  e^{-} carries one unit of negative electrical charge.

Therefore, each \rm Ag^{+}\! ion will need to gain one electron to form a neutral \rm Ag atom.

{\rm Ag^{+}}\; (aq) + e^{-} \to {\rm Ag}\; (s).

At least  1\; \rm mol of electrons would be required to turn 1\; \rm mol\! of \rm Ag^{+} ions into that 1\; \rm mol\!\! of silver atoms (which have a mass of 108\; \rm g\!.)

Hence, x = 1\; \rm mol.

Unlike \rm Ag^{+} ions, each aluminum ion \rm Al^{3+} carries three units of positive electrical charge. That is three times the amount of charge on one \rm Ag^{+}\! ion. Therefore, three electrons will be required to turn one \rm Al^{3+}\! ion to an \rm Al atom.

{\rm Al^{3+}}\; (aq) + 3\, e^{-} \to {\rm Al}\; (s)

The question states that the relative atomic mass of \rm Al is 27. Therefore, each mole of \rm Al\! atoms would have a mass 27\; \rm g. There would be \displaystyle \frac{9\; \rm g}{27\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} = \frac{1}{3} \; \rm mol of atoms in that 9\; \rm g of \rm Al\!\!.

It takes 3\; \rm mol of electrons to turn one mole of \rm Al^{3+} ions to one mole of \rm Al atoms. Hence, \displaystyle \frac{1}{3}\times 3\; \rm mol = 1\; \rm mol of electrons would be required to produce that \displaystyle \frac{1}{3}\; \rm mol of \rm Al\! atoms (which has a mass of 9\; \rm g) from \rm Al^{3+}\! ions.

That corresponds to the first choice, x electrons.

The label on a bottle shows the following information: C2H4O, molar mass 44.06 grams per mole. The formula must be:
Ivahew [28]
The formula can be empirical because the subscripts are reduced to the lowest fraction. 

To check if this formula is also the molecular formula we can check by obtaining the molar mass of the compound it is equal to the given molar mass. Thus 

12*2 + 4*1 + 16 = 44 g/mol

this is ~equal to the given molar mass thus the given equation can be both empirical and molecular.
