using your knowledge of colligative properties explain whether sodium chloride or calcium chloride would be a more effective sub

stance to melt the ice on a slick sidewalk. I already know that it is Calcium chloride but I don't have the answer completely worked out. can someone help explain it please? thank you

Answer:

Calcium chloride

Explanation:

Colligative  property depends upon number of particles. The colligative property is independent of the nature of solute present in a solution.

More the number of particles larger the colligative property.

The following are colligative property

a) depression in freezing point

b) elevation in boiling point

c) relative lowering of vapor pressure

d) osmotic pressure

Thus if we wish to melt the we will take calcium chloride as it will give more number of ions per molecules as compared to sodium chloride.

How many grams of hydrogen gas would be needed to form 8.0 grams of water
steposvetlana [31]
N h2o = mh20/Mh20
= 8.0g/18g/mol
=0.44 mol
therefore n O = 0.44mol
therefore n H2 = 0.88 mol

m H2 = n H2 * M H2
= 0.88 mol * 2 g/mol
=1.76 g

When the volume of a gas is changed from 11.5 cm3 to ?cm the temperature will change from 415 K to 200 K
Sonja [21]

Assuming that the gas acts like an ideal gas, we can calculate for the final volume using the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

Where P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles, R = gas constant, and T = temperature

Assuming that P, n, and R are constant throughout the process, we can define another constant K:

V / T = K               where K = nR / P

Equating the initial and final states:

Vi / Ti = Vf / Tf

Substituting the given values:

11.5 cm^3 / 415 K = Vf / 200 K

Vf = 5.54 cm^3
