18. Suggest an explanation for the observations that ethanol, C2H5OH, is completely miscible with water and that ethanethiol, C2

H5SH, is soluble only to the extent of 1.5 g per 100 mL of water.

Answer:

              Ethanol is completely miscible due to <u><em>presence</em></u> of Hydrogen bonding.

              Ethanethiol is partially miscible due to <u><em>absence</em></u> of Hydrogen Bonding.

Explanation:

                     The miscibility of liquids depend upon the intermolecular interactions between the two liquids. The stronger the intermolecular interactions the more miscible will be the liquids.

Among the two given examples, Ethanol is more miscible in water because it exhibits hydrogen bonding which is considered the strongest intermolecular interaction. Hydrogen bonding occurs when the hydrogen atom is bonded to more electronegative atoms like Fluorine, Oxygen and Nitrogen. In this way the hydrogen atom gets partial positive charge and the electronegative atom gets partial negative charge. Hence, these partial charges results in attracting the opposite charges on other surrounding atoms.

While, in case of Ethanethiol the hydrogen atom is not bonded to any high electronegative atom hence, there will be no hydrogen bonding and therefore, there will be less interactions between the neighbour atoms.

A sample of gas has a volume of 215 cm3 at 23.5 degrees Celsius and 84.6kPa what volume will the gas occupy at stp
miss Akunina [59]

The volume of the gas that occupy at STP is 165. 28 cm^3

calculation

by use of combined gas law that is P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2, where

P1=84.6 kpa

T1=23.5 +273=296.5 K

V1=215 cm^3

At STP T= 273 K and P= 101.325 Kpa

therefore p2 = 101.325 Kpa and T2 = 272 K V2=?

by making V2 the subject of the formula V2 =T2P1V1/P2T1

V2 = 273 K x 84.6 Kpa x 215 cm^3/ 101,.325 Kpa x296.5 K =165.28 cm^3

What do the conclusions tell about the experiment?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

When you perform a experiment to test your hypothesis (your educated guess on what you think will happen) you complete trials to find data that is reliable and valid so you are only getting the best possible results. After you complete the experiment you write your conclusion which is when you take the data and you say if the data supported your hypothesis, if you did guess correctly at the beginning of the experiment. Which means the answer is option C "the conclusions tell why the data support or reject the hypothesis."

Hope this helps.
