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

Tom [10]

Answer:There are two atoms in the molecule.

Explanation: All gases are diatomic i.e they are covalently bonded to another atom of the same element in order to attain stability. O atom is usually unstable because of it's incompletely filled outermost shell.

1.What does the Law of Conservation of Energy tells us?
lorasvet [3.4K]
1. Energy can neither be created or destroyed.
2. Conduction. Putting a pot of water on a hot burner. Convection. Putting your wet shoes over an air vent to dry them quicker. Radiation. Sitting in front of the fire to warm your hands up.
3. renewable sources can be used again and again, but non renewable sources cannot.
4. I would recommend solar energy. I think solar energy should be considered because solar energy can be reused, and also because they can use it to power their houses and they wouldn't need fossil fuels to do so.
5. Turn off the lights and open the windows during the day and if something is left plugged into the wall and it is not being used, unplug it.

hope I could help!
