Calculate the freezing point of a solution made from 220g of octane (C Hua), molar mass = 114,0 gmol dissolved in 1480 g of benz
stiv31 [10]

Answer: Freezing point of a solution will be -1.16^0C

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=(5.50-T_f)^0C = Depression in freezing point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolyte)

K_f = freezing point constant = 5.12^0C/m

m= molality

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}\times \text{weight of solvent in kg}}

Weight of solvent (benzene)= 1480 g =1.48 kg

Molar mass of solute (octane) = 114.0 g/mol

Mass of solute (octane) = 220 g

(5.50-T_f)^0C=1\times 5.12\times \frac{220g}{114.0 g/mol\times 1.48kg}

(5.50-T_f)^0C=6.68

T_f=-1.16^0C

Thus the freezing point of a solution will be -1.16^0C

What does the principle of faunal succession state?
irina1246 [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

The principle of faunal succession state <em>"Specific groups of organisms have followed one another in a definite sequence through the Earth's history."</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Faunal succession basically means is that the fossils of the flora and fauna of different eras can be found in a specific order and never in the same strata. This allows the geologists to determine the time sequence and also to identify the various strata by dating the fossils that are found in each of them. The older version of fossils are found beneath the fossils of modified versions. For example fossils of simple feathers that cannot support flight are found to be succeeded by fossils of more complex feathers.

How does electronegativity affects the type of intramolecular bond that is formed between atoms
Effectus [21]

Answer:

If the electronegativity difference between bonded atoms are too much high ionic bonds are formed if the electronegativity diference is 0.4 or less than 0.4 non polar covalnet bond formed the difference greater than 0.4 polar covalent bond formed.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.
