Aqueous solutions of isopropyl alcohol are commonly sold as rubbing alcohol. The boiling point of isopropyl alcohol is 82.4 °C.

It evaporates readily from the surface of the skin. Ethylene glycol (CH2OHCH2OH) is sold as antifreeze/antiboil. The boiling point of ethylene glycol is 198 °C. The molecular masses of isopropyl alcohol and ethylene glycol are similar. Provide an explanation for the observed difference in their boiling points.

Answer:

This is due to more hydrogen bonding in ethylene glycol than it is in isopropyl alcohol

Explanation:

The boiling point of isopropyl alcohol is 82.4 °C it contains only a single OH group, hence intermolecular hydrogen bonding is solely responsible for it's boiling point, whereas Ethylene glycol (CH2OHCH2OH) contains 2-OH group and both intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding are responsible for the higher boiling point of ethylene glycol at 198 °C.

A chemist must dilute 97.1 ml of aqueous magnesium fluoride solution until the concentration falls to 389 microMolarity . He'll
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

0.302L

Explanation:

<em>...97.1mL of 1.21m M aqueous magnesium fluoride solution</em>

<em />

In this problem the chemist is disolving a solution from 1.21mM = 1.21x10⁻³M, to 389μM = 389x10⁻⁶M. That means the solution must be diluted:

1.21x10⁻³M / 389x10⁻⁶M = 3.11 times

As the initial volume of the original concentration is 97.1mL, the final volume must be:

97.1mL * 3.11 = 302.0mL =

0.302L

In what beaker does the sugar dissolve the fastest? ( particle size, temp. of water, condition(stir/no stir), etc).
Vsevolod [243]
Temperature. In case you have ever baked, you can relate to this. For example, when you make caramel, you simply put the caramel on a boiling hot pan and sit back and watch it. It always goes fastest this way.
