When light goes from one medium to another, it changes angle. This is why it will look bent.

a car starts from the rest and accelerates at 9.54m/s for 6.5 seconds. what is the distance covered by the car

uysha [10]

Answer:

= 201.53 meters

Explanation:

A car started from rest and accelerated at 9.54 m/s^2 for 6.5 seconds. How much distance was covered by the car?

Use the formula d = $\frac{at^{2} }{2} ,$

where d is the distance, t is the time and "a" is the acceleration.
$d=\frac{9*54*6*5^{2} }{2} = 201.53 m$

As the concentration of a solute in a solution increases, the freezing point of the solution ________ and the vapor pressure of

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

As the concentration of a solute in a solution increases, the freezing point of the solution decrease and the vapor pressure of the solution decrease .

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point :

$\Delta T_f=K_f\times m$

where,

$\Delta T_f$ =depression in freezing point =

$K_f$ = freezing point constant

m = molality ( moles per kg of solvent) of the solution

As we can see that from the formula that higher the molality of the solution is directly proportionate to the depression in freezing point which means that:

If molality of the solution in high the depression in freezing point of the solution will be more.
If molality of the solution in low the depression in freezing point of teh solution will be lower .

Relative lowering in vapor pressure of the solution is given by :

$\frac{p_o-p_s}{p_o}=\chi_{solute}$

$p_o$ = Vapor pressure of pure solvent

$p_s$ = Vapor pressure of solution

$\chi_{solute}$ = Mole fraction of solute

$p_s\propto \frac{1}{\chi_{solute}}$

Vapor pressure of the solution is inversely proportional to the mole fraction of solute.

Higher the concentration of solute more will the be solute's mole fraction and decrease in vapor pressure of the solution will be observed.
lower the concentration of solute more will the be solute's mole fraction and increase in vapor pressure of the solution will be observed.
