ِAnswer:

1- The molarity of HCOOH = 9.515 M.

2- The mole fraction of HCOOH = 0.18.

Explanation:

<em>1- The molarity of HCOOH:</em>

  • We can calculate the molarity of HCOOH using the relation:

M = (10pd)/molar mass.

p is the percent by mass of HCOOH = 35.9 %.

d is the specific gravity of HCOOH = 1.22 g/cm³.

Molar mass of HCOOH = 46.03 g/mol.

∴ M = (10pd)/molar mass = (10)(35.9 %)(1.22 gcm³) / (46.03 g/mol) = 9.515 M.

<em>2- The mole fraction of HCOOH:</em>

  • We can suppose that we have a 100 g solution, that contains 35.9 g of HCOOH and 64.1 g of water.

<em>The mole fraction of HCOOH = (no. of moles of HCOOH) / (no. of moles of HCOOH + no, of moles of water).</em>

no. of moles of HCOOH = mass / molar mass = (35.9 g)/(46.03 g/mol) = 0.78 mol.

no. of moles of water = mass / molar mass = (64.1 g)/(18.0 g/mol) = 3.56 mol.

  • The mole fraction of HCOOH = (no. of moles of HCOOH) / (no. of moles of HCOOH + no, of moles of water) = (0.78 mol) / (0.78 mol + 3.56 mol) = 0.18.

Which is the most reactive metal and why?​
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Caesium, the most reactive metal in the periodic table, reacts extremely violently – hence why it can't be demonstrated in a classroom! This can be compared to other common metals, such as iron and copper, which produce no reaction when dropped into water.

Hope this answer is right!

liberstina [14]

Answer:

number of carbon-carbon single (C - C) bonds: 1

number of carbon-hydrogen single (C H) bonds: 5

number of nitrogen-hydrogen sing le (N H) bonds:2

number of lone pairs: 1

Explanation:

Ethanamine is a colourless gas having a strong 'ammonia- like' odour. It contains the -NH2 group which makes it an amine. It contains one carbon-carbon bond, five carbon-hydrogen bonds and two nitrogen-hydrogen bonds.

Nitrogen, being sp3 hybridized in the compound has a lone pair of electrons localized on one of the sp3 hybridized orbitals of nitrogen while one sp3 hybridized orbital of nitrogen is used to form a carbon-nitrogen bond. The other two sp3 hybridized orbitals on nitrogen are used to form the two nitrogen-hydrogen bonds.

Formulae for calculating number of moles​
Tresset [83]
You would use this number, 6.02×1023 (Avogadro's number) to convert from particles, atoms, or molecules to moles. Whenever you go to the mole, divide by Avogadro's number. When you go to the unit from moles, multiply by Avogadro's number.
