Answer:

2.2 °C/m

Explanation:

It seems the question is incomplete. However, this problem has been found in a web search, with values as follow:

" A certain substance X melts at a temperature of -9.9 °C. But if a 350 g sample of X is prepared with 31.8 g of urea (CH₄N₂O) dissolved in it, the sample is found to have a melting point of -13.2°C instead. Calculate the molal freezing point depression constant of X. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. "

So we use the formula for <em>freezing point depression</em>:

  • ΔTf = Kf * m

In this case, ΔTf = 13.2 - 9.9 = 3.3°C

m is the molality (moles solute/kg solvent)

  • 350 g X ⇒ 350/1000 = 0.35 kg X
  • 31.8 g Urea ÷ 60 g/mol = 0.53 mol Urea

Molality = 0.53 / 0.35 = 1.51 m

So now we have all the required data to <u>solve for Kf</u>:

  • ΔTf = Kf * m
  • 3.3 °C = Kf * 1.51 m
  • Kf = 2.2 °C/m

How many grams of water do you need to weigh if a reaction requires 5 moles of h2o
rewona [7]

One mole of water weighs 18 grams. H₂O is composed of 2H= 2 and 1 0=16 adding gives you 18. number of moles= mass/ Relative Molecular Mass

Therefore, mass= Relative Molecular Mass×number of moles

                           = 18×5 moles

                           = 90 grams

Why is it difficult to pull nitrogen from the atmosphere into the nitrogen cycle of the biosphere?
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Because only a few bacterias can "fix" the atmosphere nitrogen.

Explanation:

The nitrogen at the atmosphere is in the form of N₂ and represents 78% of the atmosphere composition. The element is part of the constitution of nucleic acids and proteins, so the living beings needed them.

However, the animals and the plants can't catch the N₂. Some bacterias that live in mutualism with plants have this ability, and they "fix" the atmosphere nitrogen, transforming the N₂ in the ions nitrite (NO₃⁻) or ammonia (NH₃), which can be caught by the plants.

Them, when the primary consumers eat the plants they catch the nitrogen, which will be passed through the food chain.

So, it's difficult to pull nitrogen from the atmosphere into the nitrogen cycle of the biosphere because only a few bacterias can do it.

How can the idea that different minerals are formed in different environments provide evidence for energy and matter cycling?
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The importance of crystal structure. The graphite-diamond mineral pair is an extreme example of the importance of crystal structure. These two very different minerals have exactly the same chemical formula (C), but the crystal structure of the two minerals is very different. In graphite, carbon atoms are bonded together along a flat plane, as shown in Figure 3.
