Answer:

Molality Ions Na⁺ = 0.410 m

Molality Ions Cl⁻ = 0.410 m

Total ion molality = 0.820 m

Explanation:

Molality (m) is defined as moles of solute that are dissolved in 1000g (1kg) of solvent. In this case, the molality of the ions is requested, so it should be borne in mind that when the NaCl salt dissolves in the water, it dissociates forming ions as follows:

NaCl ⇒Na⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq)

Therefore, <em>for each mole of salt that dissolves, you will have 1 mole of Na⁺ and 1 mole of Cl⁻ </em>

Knowing the amount of initial solute moles and the mass of water, we proceed to perform the calculations for each ion:

<em>Ions Na⁺</em>

456 g of H₂O ____ 0.187 mol Na⁺

1000 g of H₂O ____ X = 0.410 m

Calculation: 1000 g x 0.187 mol / 456 g = 0.410 mol

<em>Ions Cl⁻</em>

456 g of H₂O ____ 0.187 mol Cl⁻

1000 g of H₂O ____ X = 0.410 m

Calculation: 1000 g x 0.187 mol / 456 g = 0.410 m

If both results are added, the total molality of the ions will be obeyed:

0.410 m + 0.410 m = 0.820 m

This means that <em>for every kilogram of water, 0.820 moles of dissociated ions from NaCl are dissolved.</em>

Why is water said to be universal solvent?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

And, water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid. This allows the water molecule to become attracted to many other different types of molecules.

Determine the mass of CO2 gas produced when 8.24 g of NaHCO3 is added to a solution that contains 4.41 g of HCl.
hjlf

The mass of CO₂ gas = 4.312 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction

NaHCO₃ (s) + HCl (aq) → NaCl (aq) + H₂O (aq) + CO₂ (g)

Find limiting reactant

mol NaHCO₃

\tt \dfrac{8.24}{84,007 }=0.098

mol HCl

\tt \dfrac{4.41}{36.5}=0.121

Limiting reactant :  NaHCO₃ (smaller)

mol CO₂ = mol NaHCO₃ = 0.098

mass CO₂ :

\tt 0.098\times 44=4.312~g

Which statement describes a system that consists of sugar crystals dissolving in water?
trapecia [35]

To know the answer, you either know what is really the nature and chemistry of a sugar solution. You can also know the answer by knowing the meaning of entropy. Entropy is often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system. So the correct statement is that the system becomes more disordered and has an increase in entropy.

Which of the following is a heterogeneous mixture? Air. Salt water. Steel. Soil.
kicyunya [14]

Answer: Heterogenous mixtures are the ones in which we can see the different components clearly. Air is considered to be homogenous, because we don't see the different noble gases' particles floating around. Salt water is also homogenous, because salt dissolves almost completely into water, becoming hard to see without the proper equipment salt particles in it. Steel is also homogenous, since the metals that compose it are mixed during the heating. The only heterogenous would be soil, because we can see different particles in it, with different sizes, shapes, colors, etc without having to use special equipment.
