Answer: C. OH

Explanation: A radical is defined as a molecule with unpaired electrons; thus your answer is OH. However, if you want a more general definition (an atom or molecule with unpaired electrons), then OH, O and H are all radicals. Only H2O is a closed-shell species. and is therefore not a radical.

Hope this helps! :)

The pH of a solution is 2.0. Which statement is correct?

Natalka [10]

Answer:

The relationship of pH and concentration of H+ ion is pH = -lg[H+]. So the concentration of H+ is 10^(-2). And [OH-][H+]=10^(-14). pOH + pH = 14. So the right answer is A.

What is the value of the van't Hoff factor for KCl if a 1.00m aqueous solution shows a vapor pressure depression of 0.734 mmHg a

yaroslaw [1]

<u>Answer:</u> The Van't Hoff factor for KCl is 1.74

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Molality of solution = 1 m

This means that 1 mole of a solute is present in 1 kg of solvent (water) or 1000 grams of water

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of water = 1000 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of water}=\frac{1000g}{18g/mol}=55.56mol$

Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

$\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}$

Moles of solute = 1 moles

Total moles = [1 + 55.56] = 56.56 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\chi_{(solute)}=\frac{1}{56.56}=0.0177$

The equation used to calculate relative lowering of vapor pressure follows:

$\frac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}=i\times \chi_{solute}$

where,

$\frac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}$ = relative lowering in vapor pressure = 0.734 mmHg

i = Van't Hoff factor = ?

$\chi_{solute}$ = mole fraction of solute = 0.0177

$p^o$ = vapor pressure of pure water = 23.76 torr

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{0.734}{23.76}=i\times 0.0177\\\\i=1.74$

Hence, the Van't Hoff factor for KCl is 1.74

Copper (Cu) is often used for electrical wiring and cooking pans. However, iron (Fe) is much more common on Earth than copper. W

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

What iron gives in its abundance, it takes away in it's inability to really conduct heat and electricity well. There is enough copper around, if we are careful in its use, to make copper bottomed pots and pans. Of the three best conductors in the world (silver, gold and copper) only copper has enough around and can be inexpensively mined that we make use of it.

If you google dr. copper, you will find he is an economist as well. Copper measures the wealth of an economy by how much is used. So iron might be cheaper and more abundant, but copper will save you much more in trying to do something with it.
