Answer is: the combined ionic bond strength of CrCl₂ and intermolecular forces between water molecules.
When chromium chloride (CrCl₂) is dissolved in water, the temperature of the water increases, heat of the solution is endothermic.
Dissociation of chromium chloride in water: CrCl₂(aq) → Cr²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq).
Energy (the lattice energy) is required to pull apart the oppositely charged ions in chromium chloride.
The heat of hydration is liberated energy when the separated ions (in this example chromium cations and chlorine anions) attract polar water molecules.
Because the lattice energy is higher than the heat of the hydration (endothermic reaction), we can conclude that bonds between ions are strong (the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions).
Answer: The molarity of the solution is 0.125 M
Explanation:
Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.
where,
n = moles of solute
= volume of solution in L
moles of
=
Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get
Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 0.125 M
I think Geothermal but I’m not 100% sure
Answer:
2AlCl3 + 3H2SO4 → Al2(SO4)3 + 6HCl
Explanation:
We are told that KOH is being used to completely neutral H₂SO₄ according to the following reaction:
KOH + H₂SO₄ → H₂O + KHSO₄
If KOH can completely neutralize H₂SO₄, then there must be an equal amount of moles of each as they are in a 1:1 ratio:
0.025 L x 0.150 mol/L = .00375 mol KOH
0.00375 mol KOH x 1 mole H₂SO₄/1 mole KOH = 0.00375 mol H₂SO₄
We are told we have 15 mL of H₂SO₄ initially, so now we can find the original concentration:
0.00375 mol / 0.015 L = 0.25 mol/L
The concentration of H₂SO₄ being neutralized is 0.25 M.
