Answer:

Mole percent of water in azeotrope is 69%

Explanation:

Clearly, the azeotrope consists of water and perchloric acid.

So, 72% perchloric acid by mass means 100 g of azeotrope contains 72 g of perchloric acid and 28 g of water.

Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol and molar mass of perchloric acid = 100.46 g/mol

So, 72 g of perchloric acid = \frac{72}{100.46}mol of perchloric acid = 0.72 mol of perchloric acid

Also, 28 g of water = \frac{28}{18.02}mol of water = 1.6 mol of water

Hence total number of mol in azeotrope = (1.6+0.72) mol = 2.32 mol of azeotrope

So, mole percent of water in azeotrope = [(moles of water)/(total no of moles)]\times 100%

Mole percent of water  = \frac{1.6}{2.32}\times 100 % = 69%

C3H8 and CH4 are 2 compounds made from the same elements. This is an example of which law? A) Law of Conservation of Mass b) Law
Sphinxa [80]

C3H8 and CH4 are two compounds made from the same two elements, C and H. The ratios of C and H for both are round numbers.

Law of multiple proportions states that when two elements combine with each other to form more than one compound, the weights of one element that combine with a fixed weight of the other are in a ratio of small whole numbers.

So the ans is C) Law of Multiple Proportions

What is the term for the concentration expression that relates the moles of solute dissolved in each liter of solution?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer: -

Molarity is the term for the concentration expression that relates the moles of solute dissolved in each liter of solution.

Explanation: -

Molarity is defined as number of moles of solute dissolved per litre of the solution.

Molarity symbol is M.

1 M = 1 mol / L

Thus molarity is the term for the concentration expression that relates the moles of solute dissolved in each liter of solution
