When 20.0 grams of an unknown compound are dissolved in 500. grams of benzene, the freezing point of the resulting solution is 3

.77°C. The freezing point of pure benzene is 5.48°C, and the Kf for benzene is 5.12°C/m. What is the molecular weight of the unknown compound?

Answer: 120g/mol

Explanation:

The first step we are to take is to calculate the freezing point depression of the solution.

ΔT(f) = freezing point of pure solvent - freezing point of solution

ΔT(f) = 5.48 - 3.77

ΔT(f) = 1.71°C

Next we are to calculate the molal concentration of the solution using freezing point depression

ΔT(f) = K(f) * m

m = ΔT(f)/K(f)

m = 1.71/5.12

m = 0.333 molal

Now, we calculate the molecular weight of the unknown...

m = 0.333 mol = 0.333 mol X per kg of benzene

moles of X = 0.333 mol of X per kg of benzene * 0.5kg of benzene

moles of X = 0.1665

molecular weight of X = 20g of X/0.1665

molecular weight of X = 120/mol

How to clean a nose piercing with antibacterial soap?.
pychu [463]
Cleaning the nose piercing with a few simple steps will help prevent pre-existing conditions like infections, allergic reactions or skin damage. Performing regular maintenance will keep your piercing cleaner, more comfortable and easier to clean in the future.(Remember: If you have any problems I recommend visiting a doctor at your earliest convenience!) Antibacterial soap is great at reducing inflammation and clearing up infections. You should soak your nose in it regularly and use a clean cloth to gently wash away any particles that may have fallen into the septum.

What would happen to other populations if they didn't have limitng factors?
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

In the natural world, limiting factors like the availability of food, water, shelter and space can change animal and plant populations. Other limiting factors, like competition for resources, predation and disease can also impact populations. Other changes in limiting factors will cause a population to decrease.
