The molecules vibrate faster and the space between them is increased, the end result is that the object expands and takes up more space

Determine the freezing point and boiling point of a solution that has 68.4 g of sucrose

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Freezing T° of solution = - 3.72°C

Boiling T° of solution = 101.02°C

Explanation:

To solve this we apply colligative properties. Firstly, freezing point depression:

ΔT = Kf . m . i

ΔT = Freezing T° of pure solvent - Freezing T° of solution

Kf = Cryoscopic constant, for water is 1.86 °C/m

m = molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)

i = Ions dissolved in solution

Our solute is sucrose, an organic compound so no ions are defined. i = 1.

Let's determine the moles: 68.4 g . 1mol/ 342g = 0.2 moles

molality = 0.2 mol / 0.1kg of water = 2 m

We replace data: ΔT = 1.86°C/m . 2m . 1

Freezing T° of solution = - 3.72°C

Now, we apply elevation of boiling point: ΔT = Kb . m . i

ΔT = Boiling T° of solution - Boiling T° of pure solvent

Kf = Ebulloscopic constant, for water is 0.512 °C/m

We replace:

Boiling T° of solution - Boiling T° of pure solvent = 0.512 °C/m . 2 . 1

Boiling T° of solution = 0.512 °C/m . 2 . 1 + 100°C → 101.02°C

an aqueous solution contains 1.2mM of total ions. if the solution is NaCl (aq), what is the concentration of chloride ions?

Genrish500 [490]

Explanation:

As the total concentration is given as 1.2 mM. And, it is also given that salt present in the solution is NaCl.

As sodium chloride is an ionic compound so, when it is added to water then it will dissociate into sodium and chlorine ions as follows.

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

So, it means in total there will be formation of 2 ions when one molecules of NaCl dissociates.

Therefore, concentration of chlorine ions will be calculated as follows.

Concentration of $Cl^{-}$ ions = $\frac{1.2mM}{2}$

= 0.6 mM

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of chloride ions is 0.6 mM.

What does the electron sea model for metals suggest? A. valence electrons drift freely around the metal anions B. valence electr

Ainat [17]

The electron sea model for metals suggest that the valence electrons drift freely around the metal cations.

Answer: B

Explanation

The sea model of electron is used for describing the mechanism of metallic bonding.

The metallic bonding generally occurs between 2 or more metals leading to the formation of alloys.

According to electron sea model, the electrons which contributes to the metallic bond are mostly the valence electrons of the atoms, these valence electrons get de-localized and can move freely around the nuclei of other atoms.

Overall, it seems like nuclei of positive charge is surrounded by sea of negative electrons.

Copper (II) nitrate, Cu(NO3)2, solution reacts with potassium hydroxide, KOH, to form a blue

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Copper(II) nitrate and potassium hydroxide are soluble ionic compounds, which implies that they dissociate completely when dissolved in water to produce ions. ... You can thus say that the balanced chemical equation that describes this double ... Cu(NO3)2(aq)+2KOH(aq)→Cu(OH)2(s)⏐⏐↓+2KNO3(aq).
