Which topic is not included in the study of physical geology?

What distinguishes a substance from a mixture?

wariber [46]

A mixture consists of numerous substances, whereas a substance does not consist of mixtures, but rather of compounds. Mixtures can be separated physically, while substances cannot.

An aqueous CsCl solution is 8.00 wt% CsCl and has a density of 1.0643 g/mL at 20°C. What is the boiling point of this solution?

umka2103 [35]

<u>Answer:</u> The boiling point of solution is 100.53

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

8.00 wt % of CsCl

This means that 8.00 grams of CsCl is present in 100 grams of solution

Mass of solvent = (100 - 8) g = 92 grams

The equation used to calculate elevation in boiling point follows:

$\Delta T_b=\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of pure solution}$

To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:

$\Delta T_b=iK_bm$

Or,

$\text{Boiling point of solution}-\text{Boiling point of pure solution}=i\times K_b\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}$

where,

Boiling point of pure solution = 100°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 2 (For CsCl)

$K_b$ = molal boiling point elevation constant = 0.51°C/m

$m_{solute}$ = Given mass of solute (CsCl) = 8.00 g

$M_{solute}$ = Molar mass of solute (CsCl) = 168.4 g/mol

$W_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (water) = 92 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Boiling point of solution}-100=2\times 0.51^oC/m\times \frac{8.00\times 1000}{168.4g/mol\times 92}\\\\\text{Boiling point of solution}=100.53^oC$

Hence, the boiling point of solution is 100.53

A balloon containing N2 has 1.70 moles and occupies 3.80L. What will the volume be if the number of moles is increased to 2.60mo

leonid [27]

Answer:

5.81L

Explanation:

N1 = 1.70 moles

V1 = 3.80L

V2 = ?

N2 = 2.60 moles

Mole - volume relationship,

N1 / V1 = N2 / V2

V2 = (N2 × V1) / N1

V2 = (2.60 × 3.80) / 1.70

V2 = 9.88 / 1.70

V2 = 5.81 L

The volume of the gas is 5.81L

A sample of hexane (C6H14) has a mass of 0.580 g. The sample is burned in a bomb calorimeter that has a mass of 1.900 kg and a s

Mama L [17]

Use the formula, Q= mcT

Q= heat
m= mass= 1.900Kg= 1.900 x 10^3 grams
c= specific heat= 3.21
T= 4.542 K

Q= (1.900 x10^3g)(3.21)(4.542K)= 14.6 Joules.
