Vitamin K is involved in normal blood clotting. When 0.802 g of vitamin K is dissolved in 25.0 g of camphor, the freezing point

xenn [34]

Answer:

Molar mass of vitamin K = 450.56\frac{g}{mol}[/tex]

Explanation:

The freezing point of camphor = 178.4 ⁰C

the Kf of camphor = 37.7°C/m

where : m = molality

the relation between freezing point depression and molality is

Depression in freezing point = Kf X molality

Where

Kf = cryoscopic constant of camphor

molality = moles of solute dissolved per kg of solvent.

putting values

2.69°C = 37.7°C/m X molality

molality = 0.0714 mol /kg

$molality=\frac{molesofvitaminK}{massofcamphor(kg)}=\frac{moles}{0.025}$

moles of vitamin K = 0.0714X0.025 = 0.00178 mol

we know that moles are related to mass and molar mass of a substance as:

$moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}$

For vitamin K the mass is given = 0.802 grams

therefore molar mass = $\frac{mass}{moles}=\frac{0.802}{0.00178}=450.56\frac{g}{mol}$

Explain how deep ocean currents form.

vivado [14]

Answer:

Deep ocean currents (also known as Thermohaline Circulation) are caused by: The sinking and transport of large masses of cool water gives rise to the thermohaline circulation, which is driven by density gradients due to variations in temperature and salinity. The earth's rotation also influences deep ocean currents.

1) How many molecules are there in 985 mL of nitrogen at 0.0° C and 1.00 x 10-6 mm Hg?

RSB [31]

Answer : The number of molecules present in nitrogen gas are, $3.48\times 10^{13}$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of nitrogen gas by using ideal gas equation.

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = Pressure of $N_2$ gas = $1.00\times 10^{-6}mmHg=1.32\times 10^{-9}atm$ (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

V = Volume of $N_2$ gas = 985 mL = 0.982 L (1 L = 1000 mL)

n = number of moles $N_2$ = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821L.atm/mol.K$

T = Temperature of $N_2$ gas = $0.0^oC=273+0.0=273K$

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

$(1.32\times 10^{-9}atm)\times 0.982L=n\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 273K$

$n=5.78\times 10^{-11}mol$

Now we have to calculate the number of molecules present in nitrogen gas.

As we know that 1 mole of substance contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of molecules.

As, 1 mole of $N_2$ gas contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of molecules

So, $5.78\times 10^{-11}$ mole of $N_2$ gas contains $(5.78\times 10^{-11})\times (6.022\times 10^{23})=3.48\times 10^{13}$ number of molecules

Therefore, the number of molecules present in nitrogen gas are, $3.48\times 10^{13}$

Phthalates used as plasticizers in rubber and plastic products are believed to act as hormone mimics in humans. The value of ΔHc

jeka94

Answer:

$T_f$ = 25.05°C

Explanation:

Given:

the value of ΔHcomb (heat of combustion) for dimethylphthalate (C10H10O4) is = 4685 kJ/mol.

mass = 0.905g of dimethylphthalate

molar mass = 194.18g dimethylphthalate

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = ???

$T_i$ = 21.5°C

$C_{calorimeter}$ = 6.15 kJ/°C

$T_f$ = ???

since we have our molar mass and mass of dimethylphthalate ;we can determine the number of moles as;

0.905g of dimethylphthalate × $\frac{1 mole (dimethylphthalate)}{194.184g(dimethylphthalate)}$

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = 0.000466 moles

Heat released = moles of dimethylphthalate × heat of combustion

= 0.000466 moles × 4685 kJ

= 21.84 kJ

∴ Heat absorbed by the calorimeter = $C_{calorimeter}$ $(T_f-T_i} )$

21.84 kJ =6.15 kJ/°C $* (T_f-21,5^0C)$

21.84 KJ = $(6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f) - (6.15 kJ/^0C*21.5^0C)$

21.84 KJ = $(6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)$ - 132.225 kJ

21.84 KJ + 132.225 kJ = $(6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)$

154.065 kJ = $(6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)$

$T_f$ = $\frac{154.065kJ}{6.15kJ/^0C}$

$T_f$ =25.05°C

How can so many different substances in the world be made of so few elements?

Mrrafil [7]

Matematically speaking, maybe because:
The number of substances = number of elements + number of different combinations of those elements
