A solution of sodium chloride in water has a vapor pressure of 19.6 torr at 25°C. What is the mole fraction of NaCl in this solu
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Mole fraction of Nacl is 0.173

Explanation:

we know that

P_{sol}=\chi_{solvent}P^0_{solvent}

where,

P sol  - the vapor pressure of the solution

χ  solvent - the mole fraction of the solvent

P ∘ solvent  - the vapor pressure of the pure solvent

This means that in order to be able to calculate the mole fraction of sodium chloride, you need to know what the vapor pressure of pure water is at  

25 ° C  You can use an online calculator to find that the vapor pressure of pure water at  25 C  is equal to about  23.8 torr .

\chi_{water}= \frac{P{sol}}{P^0{water}}

\chi_{water}= \frac{19.6}{23.8}

=0.827

Also we know that

\chi_{water}+\chi_{Nacl}= 1

This means that the mole fraction of sodium chloride is

χ_{Nacl}= 1-Χ_{water}

= 1-0.827 =0.173

Calculate the number of formula units in 2.50 mol NaNO
marta [7]

The number of formula units in 2.50 mol of the compound is  15.1 * 10^23.

The question is unclear whether NaNO2 or NaNO3 is implied. However,in either case, the solution applies equally.

6.02 * 10^23 formula units of the compound are contained in 1 mole

x formula units are contained in 2.5 moles of the compound

x = 6.02 * 10^23 formula units * 2.5 moles/ 1 mole

x = 15.1 * 10^23 formula units of the compound.

Forrest spills some acid on the lab floor. He notifies his teacher and begins to look for baking soda to neutralize the acid on
riadik2000 [5.3K]

The other students in the lab should be notified next in this type of scenario.

<h3>What is an acid?</h3>

This is a substance which donates protons and is very corrosive. It also turns blue litmus paper red.

When it was spilled and baking soda was used to neutralize it on the floor , it is best to inform the other students too so as to prevent them from being exposed by mistake thereby reducing risk of injury.
