<span> It is important to keep the NaOH solution covered at all time because sodium hydroxide is a very good remover of Carbon dioxide from the air means sodium hydroxide absorbs the carbon dioxide from the air react with that so the concentration of your solution will also change if you uncover the NaOH.
The following reaction occurs when sodium hydroxide reacts with carbon dioxide;

After substantial heating, 6.25 g of iron produced 18.00 g of a compound with chlorine. The empirical formula is:
babunello [35]

Answer:

Option A. FeCl3

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of iron (Fe) = 6.25g

Mass of the compound formed = 18g

From the question, we were told that the compound formed contains chlorine. Therefore the mass of chlorine is obtained as follow

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = Mass of compound formed – Mass of iron.

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 18 – 6.25

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g

The compound therefore contains:

Iron (Fe) = 6.25g

Chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g

The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained by doing the following:

Step 1:

Divide by their molar mass

Fe = 6.25/56 = 0.112

Cl = 11.75/35.5 = 0.331

Step 2:

Divide by the smallest

Fe = 0.112/0.112 = 1

Cl = 0.331/0.112 = 3

The empirical formula for the compound is FeCl3

Predict which substance in each pair has the higher surface tension.
natta225 [31]

Answer:

(a) Between methanol (CH₃OH) and glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃)

(b) Between tetrabromomethane (CBr₄) and chloroform (CHCl₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is chloroform (CHCl₃)

Explanation:

The surface tension of these substances at 20 °C given in mN/m, is as follows:

The surface tension of Methanol is 22.70

The surface tension of Tetrabromomethane is 26.95

The surface tension of Glycerol is 64.00

The surface tension of Chloroform is 27.50

(a) Between methanol (CH₃OH) and glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃)

(b) Between tetrabromomethane (CBr₄) and chloroform (CHCl₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is chloroform (CHCl₃)

What is the freezing point (in degrees Celcius) of 4.14 kg of water if it contains 235.1 g of butanol, C 4 H 9 O H
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Molal freezing point depression constant of butanol Kf = 8.37⁰C /m

ΔTf = Kf x m , m is no of moles of solute per kg of solvent .

mol weight of butanol = 70 g

235.1 g of butanol = 235.1 / 70 = 3.3585 moles

3.3585 moles of butanol dissolved in 4.14 kg of water .

ΔTf = 8.37 x 3.3585 / 4.14

= 6.79⁰C

Depression in freezing point = 6.79

freezing point of solution = - 6.79⁰C .
