When waters salinity increases it’s freezing point will decrease. This is one of the reasons why people salt the roads after a snow storm.

Answer:

Freezing point decreases.

Explanation:

Decreasing of freezing point is a colligative property, which depends on the number of solute particles in the solution. As the number of solute particle increases the freezing point decreases.  

Salt water has a lower freezing point than plain water.  

Salt water does not have a different mass than plain water. Option A is incorrect.

Salt water does not affect the buoyancy or the mineral dissolved in it.  Both option C and D are incorrect

How many moles of sodium carbonate are contained by 57.3g of sodium carbonate
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.541 \  mol \ Na_2CO_3}}

Explanation:

We are asked to find how many moles of sodium carbonate are in 57.3 grams of the substance.

Carbonate is CO₃ and has an oxidation number of -2. Sodium is Na and has an oxidation number of +1. There must be 2 moles of sodium so the charge of the sodium balances the charge of the carbonate. The formula is Na₂CO₃.

We will convert grams to moles using the molar mass or the mass of 1 mole of a substance. They are found on the Periodic Table as the atomic masses, but the units are grams per mole instead of atomic mass units. Look up the molar masses of the individual elements.

  • Na:  22.9897693 g/mol
  • C: 12.011 g/mol
  • O: 15.999 g/mol

Remember the formula contains subscripts. There are multiple moles of some elements in 1 mole of the compound. We multiply the element's molar mass by the subscript after it, then add everything together.

  • Na₂ = 22.9897693 * 2= 45.9795386 g/mol
  • O₃ = 15.999 * 3= 47.997 g/mol
  • Na₂CO₃= 45.9795386 + 12.011 + 47.997 =105.9875386 g/mol

We will convert using dimensional analysis. Set up a ratio using the molar mass.

\frac {105.9875386  \ g \ Na_2CO_3}{1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}

We are converting 57.3 grams to moles, so we multiply by this value.

57.3 \ g \ Na_2CO_3} *\frac {105.9875386  \ g \ Na_2CO_3}{1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}

Flip the ratio so the units of grams of sodium carbonate cancel.

57.3 \ g \ Na_2CO_3} *\frac {1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}{105.9875386  \ g \ Na_2CO_3}

57.3 } *\frac {1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}{105.9875386 }

\frac {57.3 }{105.9875386 } \ mol \ Na_2CO_3

0.5406295944 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3

The original measurement of moles has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found that is the thousandth place. The 6 in the ten-thousandth place to the right tells us to round the 0 up to a 1.

0.541 \  mol \ Na_2CO_3

There are approximately <u>0.541 moles of sodium carbonate</u> in 57.3 grams.

The liter is a measurement of which of the following qualities volume,teampature,mass,density
Doss [256]

Answer:

Volume

Explanation:

Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface, for example, the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or 3D shape occupies or contains.[1] Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit, the cubic metre. The volume of a container is generally understood to be the capacity of the container; i.e., the amount of fluid (gas or liquid) that the container could hold, rather than the amount of space the container itself displaces. Three dimensional mathematical shapes are also assigned volumes. Volumes of some simple shapes, such as regular, straight-edged, and circular shapes can be easily calculated using arithmetic formulas. Volumes of complicated shapes can be calculated with integral calculus if a formula exists for the shape's boundary. One-dimensional figures (such as lines) and two-dimensional shapes (such as squares) are assigned zero volume in the three-dimensional space.

The volume of a solid (whether regularly or irregularly shaped) can be determined by fluid displacement. Displacement of liquid can also be used to determine the volume of a gas. The combined volume of two substances is usually greater than the volume of just one of the substances. However, sometimes one substance dissolves in the other and in such cases the combined volume is not additive.[2]

In differential geometry, volume is expressed by means of the volume form, and is an important global Riemannian invariant. In thermodynamics, volume is a fundamental parameter, and is a conjugate variable to pressure.
