Which of the following statements is true?
vlabodo [156]

In an unsaturated solution, the amount of solute is less than required in the solution. So, it can dissolve more solute.

Solid state is more dense than the liquid state as the molecules are closely packed in a solid.

Density is temperature dependent as with increase in temperature volume increases. So, the density decreases.

Like dissolves like. A polar solute will dissolve in a polar solvent.

So, the correct statement among the given options is B.For most substances, the solid state is more dense than the liquid state.

A binary compound of boron and hydrogen has the following percentage composition: 78.14% boron, 21.86% hydrogen. If the molar ma
algol [13]

Answer:

Empirical formula: BH3

Molecular Formula: B2H6

Explanation:

To solve the exercise, we need to know how many boron atoms and how many hydrogen atoms the compound has. We know that of the total weight of the compound, 78.14% correspond to boron and 21.86% to hydrogen. As the weight of the compound is between 27 g and 28 g, using the above percentages we can solve that the compound has between 21.1 g and 21.8 g of boron, and between 5.9 g and 6.1 g of hydrogen:

100% _____ 27 g

78.14% _____ x = 78.14% * 27g / 100% = 21.1 g boron

100% ______27 g

21.86% ______ x = 21.86% * 27g / 100% = 5.9 g hydrogen

100% _____ 28 g

78.14% _____ x = 78.14% * 28g / 100% = 21.8 g boron

100% _____ 28g

21.86% _____ x = 21.86% * 28g / 100% = 6.1 g hydrogen

So, if the atomic weight of boron is 10.8 g, there must be two boron atoms in the compound that sum 21.6 g. The weight of hydrogen is 1 g, so the compound must have six hydrogen atoms.

The molecular formula represents the real amount of atoms that form a compound. Therefore, the molecular formula of the compound is B2H6.

The empirical formula is the minimum expression that represents the proportion of atoms in a compound. For example, ethane has 2 carbon atoms and 6 hydrogen atoms, so its molecular formula is C2H6, however, its empirical formula is CH3. Therefore, the empirical formula of the boron compound is BH3.

What is the concentration of a solution made by dissolving 0.99mol of acetic acid in enough water to make 0.58L of solution?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

[CH₃COOH] = 1.70 M

Explanation:

When we talk about concentration we can determine Molarity

Molarity determines the moles of solute that are contained in 1L of solution.

In this case our solute is the acetic acid.

M = mol/L

M = 0.99 mol /0.58L → 1.70 M

We can also make a rule of three

In 0.58 L of solution we have 0.99 moles of solute

In 1 L of solution we may have (1 . 0.99) / 0.58 = 1.70 moles

Acetic acid is a weak acid, partially dissociated in water.

CH₃COOH  +  H₂O  ⇄  CH₃COO⁻  +  H₃O⁺     Ka
