Find moles of CaCl2 and water.
Molar mass of CaCl2 = 110 (approx.)
Moles of CaCl2 = 23.7 / 110 = 0.22
so, moles of Cl- ion = 2 x 0.22 = 0.44 (because each molecule of CaCl2 will give two Cl- ions)
Moles of water = 375 / 18 = 20.83
Now, Mole fraction of CaCl2 = (moles of CaCl2) / (total moles)
total moles = moles of Cl- ions + moles of Ca2+ ions + moles of water
= 0.44 + 0.22 + 20.83
=21.49
So, mole fraction = 0.44 / (21.49) = 0.02
Guess what !!! density is not used. No need
Answer:
a) Unsaturated
b) Supersaturated
c) Unsaturated
Explanation:
A saturated solution contains the <u>maximum amount of a solute that will dissolve in a given solvent at a specific temperature</u>.
An unsaturated solution contains <u>less solute than it has the capacity to dissolve. </u>
A supersaturated solution, <u>contains more solute than is present in a saturated solution</u>. Supersaturated solutions are not very stable. In time, some of the solute will come out of a supersaturated solution as crystals.
According to these definitions and considering that the solubility of KCl in 100 mL of H₂O at <u>20 °C is 34 g</u>, and at <u>50 °C is 43 g</u> we can label the solutions:
a) 30 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 20 °C ⇒ unsaturated
b) 65 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 50 °C ⇒ supersaturated
c) 42 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 50 °C and slowly cooling to 20 °C to give a clear solution <u>with no precipitate</u> ⇒ unsaturated (if it were saturated it would have had precipitate)
