Answer:

185.2 g/mol.

Explanation:

Solvent = Benzene

Solute = lauryl alcohol

Given:

Mass of solute = 5 g

Mass of solvent = 0.1 kg

Freezing point of solvent, Temp.f = 4.1 °C

Initial freezing point of solvent, Temp.i = 5.5 °C

Molal freezing depression constant for Benzene, kf = 5.12 °C/m

ΔTemp.f = Temp.f - Temp.i

= 5.5 - 4.1

= 1.4 °C

ΔTemp.f = kf * m

Where m = molality

m = 1.4/5.12

= 0.27 mol/kg

Molality = number of moles of solute/mass of solvent

Number of moles = 0.27/0.1

= 0.027 mol.

Molar mass = mass/number of moles

= 5/0.027

= 185.2 g/mol.

Find the value of the solubility product ksp for a saturated solution of mercury bromide, hgbr2, using the solubility of mercury
kondaur [170]
When the reaction equation is:

HgBr2(s) ↔ Hg2+(aq)   +   2Br-(aq)

So Ksp expression = [Hg2+] [Br-]^2

assume the solubility S = X = 2.66 x 10^-7 M 

and from the reaction equation :

we can see that [Hg2+] = X

and the [Br-] = 2 X

so by substitution in Ksp formula will can get the Ksp value:

∴ Ksp = X * (2X)^2

       = 2.66 x 10^-7 * (2*2.66 x 10^-7)^2

       = 7.53 x 10^-20

Predict the order of acid strengths in the following series of cationic
stich3 [128]

Answer:

CH3CH=NH2+>CH3CH2NH3+

Explanation:

If we look at the both species under review, we will realize that they are both amines hence they possess the polar N-H bond.

Electrons are ordinarily attracted towards the nitrogen atom hence making both compounds acidic. It is worthy of note that certain features of a compound may make it more acidic than another of close structural proximity. 'More acidic' simply means that the proton is more easily lost.

CH3CH=NH2+ contains an sp2 hybridized carbon atom which is highly electronegative and further withdraws electron density from the N-H bond thereby leading to a greater acidity of CH3CH=NH2+ compared to CH3CH2NH3+

What is the ratio of molecules in: <br> CH4 + 2O2 -&gt; CO2 + 2H2O
nalin [4]

Answer:

1:2:1:2

Explanation:

A molecule is made up of aggregates of small particles called atoms.

                   CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the reaction above we have: 1 molecule of methane CH₄ reacting with 2 molecules of oxygen gas O₂ to produce 1 molecule of carbon dioxide gas CO₂ and 2 molecules of H₂O:

                   CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

                      1    :     2   :     1      :     2
