The student is now told that the four solids, in no particular order, are magnesium bromide (MgBr2), sugar (C6H12O6), butanoic a

cid (C3H7COOH), and potassium bromide (KBr). Assuming that conductivity is correlated to the number of ions in solution, rank the four substances based on how well a 0.20 M solution in water will conduct electricity.

Answer:

Magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) > Potassium bromide (KBr) > Butanoic acid (C₃H₇COOH) > Sugar (C₆H₁₂O₆)  (Conductivity)

Explanation:

The given samples:

<u>Magnesium chloride (MgCl₂):</u>

It is a strong salt which dissociates 100% into 3 ions, 1 Mg²⁺ and 2 Cl⁻

<u>Sugar (C₆H₁₂O₆):</u>

It is a carbohydrate and will have 0% dissociation and thus, no ions.

<u>Butanoic acid (C₃H₇COOH):</u>

It is a carboxylic acid (weak acids) which partially dissociates.

<u>Potassium bromide (KBr):</u>

It is a strong salt which dissociates 100% into 2 ions, K⁺ and Br⁻.

Thus, Conductivity is directly proportional to the numbers of ions dissociated in the solution and hence will conduct more electricity.

So,

<u>Magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) > Potassium bromide (KBr) > Butanoic acid (C₃H₇COOH) > Sugar (C₆H₁₂O₆)  (Conductivity)</u>

A sample of gas in a 14.6 L flexible container is at 25.0oC and 1.00atm. What is the volume of the sample when heated to 220.0oC
inn [45]

Answer: 24.1 L

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

where,

V_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

V_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

V_1=14.6L\\T_1=25.0^oC=(25+273)K=298K\\V_2=?\\T_2=220.0^0C=(220+273)K=493K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{14.6}{298K}=\frac{V_2}{493}\\\\V_2=24.1L

Thus the volume of the sample when heated to 220.0oC and the pressure is constant is 24.1 L

The muscles in the stomach aid in digestion by __________.
dsp73

Churning or mixing food.

The stomach is a muscular sac that lies between theesophagus and thesmall intestine in the upper abdomen. The stomach is not the only part of your digestive system that absorbs food but rather is a part of the digestive system and important for churning food into a consistency that is easier to digest for the rest of your intestines.

Equation is balanced already
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

1.) 13 g C₄H₁₀

2.) 41 g CO₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of propane (C₄H₁₀) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), you need to (1) convert mass O₂ to moles O₂ (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles O₂ to moles C₄H₁₀/CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), and then (3) convert moles C₄H₁₀/CO₂ to mass C₄H₁₀/CO₂ (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answers should have 2 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value.

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 4(12.011 g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 58.124 g/mol

Molar Mass (CO₂): 12.011 g/mol + 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CO₂): 44.007 g/mol

Molar Mass (O₂): 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (O₂): 31.996 g/mol

2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ ----> 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O

 48 g O₂             1 mole             2 moles C₄H₁₀            58.124 g

Why do all atoms of an element have the same atomic number, although they may have
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Here’s what I get.

Explanation:

  • The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
  • The number of protons determines the number of electrons.
  • The number of electrons determines the chemical properties of the element,

Thus, the atomic number determines the identity of the element.

The atomic mass does not affect the chemical properties, so different isotopes of an element behave alike.

You have 8 moles of a gas at 250 K in a 6 L container. What is the pressure of the gas? Show your work
Bogdan [553]

Hello:

In this case, we will use the Clapeyron equation:

P = ?

n = 8 moles

T = 250 K

R = 0.082 atm.L/mol.K

V = 6 L

Therefore:

P * V = n *  R * T

P * 6 = 8 * 0.082* 250

P* 6 = 164

P = 164 / 6

P = 27.33 atm


Hope that helps!
