What type of wave can actually reach Earth's inner core

kenny6666 [7]

I believe body waves can actually reach the core as they follow raypaths refracted by the varying density and modulus of Earths interior.

Hope this helps!

A certain liquid has a normal freezing point of and a freezing point depression constant . Calculate the freezing point of a sol

katrin2010 [14]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

A certain liquid X has a normal freezing point of $0.80^oC$ and a freezing point depression constant $K_f=7.82^oC.kg/mol$ . Calculate the freezing point of a solution made of 81.1 g of iron(III) chloride () dissolved in 850. g of X. Round your answer to significant digits.

<u>Answer:</u> The freezing point of the solution is $-17.6^oC$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Depression in the freezing point is defined as the difference between the freezing point of the pure solvent and the freezing point of the solution.

The expression for the calculation of depression in freezing point is:

$\text{Freezing point of pure solvent}-\text{freezing point of solution}=i\times K_f\times m$

$\text{Freezing point of pure solvent}-\text{Freezing point of solution}=i\times K_f\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times w_{solvent}\text{(in g)}}$ ......(1)

where,

Freezing point of pure solvent = $0.80^oC$

Freezing point of solution = $?^oC$

i = Vant Hoff factor = 4 (for iron (III) chloride as 4 ions are produced in the reaction)

$K_f$ = freezing point depression constant = $7.82^oC/m$

$m_{solute}$ = Given mass of solute (iron (III) chloride) = 81.1 g

$M_{solute}$ = Molar mass of solute (iron (III) chloride) = 162.2 g/mol

$w_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (X) = 850. g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.8-(\text{Freezing point of solution})=4\times 7.82\times \frac{81.1\times 1000}{162.2\times 850}\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=[0.8-18.4]^oC\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=-17.6^oC$

Hence, the freezing point of the solution is $-17.6^oC$

Is wine a homogenous mixure

Fiesta28 [93]

Tap water and rain water are both homogeneous, even though they may have different levels of dissolved minerals and gases. A bottle of alcohol is a man-made homogeneous mixture, from a fine Italian wine to a glass of Scotch whisky. In the human body, blood plasma is an example of a homogeneous mixture.

SiCl4 + H2O = H4SiO4 + HCl

vichka [17]

Hey there!

Balance the equation:

SiCl₄ + H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + HCl

Balance H.

2 on the left, 5 on the right. Add a coefficient of 3 in front of H₂O and a coefficient of 2 in front of HCl.

SiCl₄ + 3H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 2HCl

Balance O.

3 on the left, 4 on the right. Change the coefficient of 3 in front of H₂O to a 4.

SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 2HCl

This unbalanced our H, so change the coefficient of 2 in front of HCl to a 4.

SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 4HCl

Balance Cl.

4 on the left, 4 on the right. Already balanced.

Balance Si.

1 on the left, 1 on the right. Already balanced.

Our final balanced equation:

SiCl₄ + 4H₂O → H₄SiO₄ + 4HCl

Hope this helps!
