Answer: C) 0.020 m

Explanation:

Molality of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per kg of the solvent.

Molality=\frac{n\times 1000}{W_s}

where,

n = moles of solute  

W_s = weight of solvent in g  

Mole fraction of CO_2 is = 3.6\times 10^{-4} i.e.3.6\times 10^{-4}  moles of CO_2 is present in 1 mole of solution.

Moles of solute (CO_2) = 3.6\times 10^{-4}

moles of solvent (water) = 1 - 3.6\times 10^{-4} = 0.99

weight of solvent =moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.99\times 18=17.82g

Molality =\frac{3.6\times 10^{-4}\times 1000}{17.82g}=0.020

Thus  approximate molality of CO_2 in this solution is 0.020 m

likoan [24]

Answer:

Compound 1 is molecular

Compound 2 is ionic

Compound 3 can't really be decided

Explanation:

A molecular substance does not conduct electricity, has very low melting and boiling points and is held together by very weak intermolecular forces.

An ionic substance conducts electricity in solution or in molten state but never in the pure solid state, has a high melting and boiling point and has a dull appearance most times.

Compounds 1 shows the properties of molecular substances hence it are designated as such.

On the other hand, compound 2 shows the properties of an ionic substance and is also designated as such.

We can't really decide on compound 3 because it shows some properties of ionic substances and some properties of molecular substances.

How many alkali metals will combine with 1 oxygen family member
Daniel [21]
The alkali metals are so reactive that they are never found in nature in elemental form. Although some of their ores are abundant, isolating them from their ores is somewhat difficult. For these reasons, the group 1 elements were unknown until the early 19th century, when Sir Humphry Davy first prepared sodium (Na) and potassium (K) by passing an electric current through molten alkalis. (The ashes produced by the combustion of wood are largely composed of potassium and sodium carbonate.) Lithium (Li) was discovered 10 years later when the Swedish chemist Johan Arfwedson was studying the composition of a new Brazilian mineral. Cesium (Cs) and rubidium (Rb) were not discovered until the 1860s, when Robert Bunsen conducted a systematic search for new elements. Known to chemistry students as the inventor of the Bunsen burner, Bunsen’s spectroscopic studies of ores showed sky blue and deep red emission lines that he attributed to two new elements, Cs and Rb, respectively. Francium (Fr) is found in only trace amounts in nature, so our knowledge of its chemistry is limited. All the isotopes of Fr have very short half-lives, in contrast to the other elements in group 1.

Write Qc for each of the following:(1) Gaseous sulfur tetrafluoride reacts with liquid water to produce gaseous sulfur dioxide a
snow_tiger [21]

Answer : The expression for reaction quotient will be :

(1) Q_c=\frac{[SO_2][HF]^4}{[SF_4]}

(2) Q_c=\frac{[O_2]^2[Xe]}{[XeF_2]}

Explanation :

Reaction quotient (Q_c) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

(1) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

SF_4(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow SO_2(g)+4HF(g)

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.  So, the expression for reaction quotient will be :

Q_c=\frac{[SO_2][HF]^4}{[SF_4]}

(2) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2MoO_2(s)+XeF_2(g)\rightarrow 2MoF(l)+Xe(g)+2O_2(g)[/texIn this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.  So, the expression for reaction quotient will be :[tex]Q_c=\frac{[O_2]^2[Xe]}{[XeF_2]}

Calculate the pOH of a 0.0143 M NaOH solution at 25 ⁰C.
arsen [322]

Answer:

A.) 1.845

Explanation:

You can find the pOH using the following equation:

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

Since NaOH dissociates into 1 Na⁺ and 1 OH⁻, the concentration of both ions is 0.0143 M.

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

pOH = -log[0.0143]

pOH = 1.845
