Answer:

b. 2 mol of KI in 500. g of water

Explanation:

We have to apply the colligative property of freezing point depression.

The formula is: ΔT = Kf . m . i

As the (Kf . m . i) is higher, then the freezing temperature will be lower.

i refers to the Van't Hoff factor (number of ions dissolved in the solution)

KI → K⁺ + I⁻ (i =2)

Kf is constant so, we have to search for the highest m (molality)

Molality means the moles of solute in 1kg of solvent.

The highest m is option b → 2 mol of KI / 0.5 kg = 4 mol/kg

a. 1 mol of KI / 0.5 kg = 2 mol/kg

c. 1 mol of KI / 1kg = 1 mol/kg

d. 2 mol of KI / 1kg = 2 mol/kg

1000 g = 1kg. In order to determine molality we need to convert the mass (g) of solvent to kg

Write the mechanism of the reaction of methyl benzoate to form methyl 2-nitrobenzoate.

Galina-37 [17]

The question is partially incorrect, because nitration of <span> methyl benzoate results in generation of methyl 3-nitrobenzoate, and not methyl 2-benzoate.

This a because of the present of ester group, which deactivated benzene ring at ortho and para position. Due to this, the electrophile (NO2+) attackes on meta position.

The detailed mechanism is attached below.</span>

What mass of iron is formed when 10 grams of carbon react with 80 grams of iron iii oxide?

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

55.85 grams of Fe is formed.

Explanation:

Identify the reaction:

2Fe₂O₃ + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO₂

Identify the limiting reactant, previously determine the mol of each reactant

(mass / molar mass)

10 g / 12 g/m = 0.83 moles C

80 g / 159.7 g /m = 0.500 moles Fe₂O₃

2 moles of oxide need 3 moles of C, to react

0.5 moles of oxide, will need ( 0.5 . 3)/ 2 = 0.751 mol

I have 0.83 moles of C, so C is the excess.

The limiting is the oxide.

3 mol of C need 2 mol of oxide to react

0.83 mol of C, will need (0.83 . 2)/ 3 = 0.553 mol of oxide, and I only have 0.5 (That's why Fe₂O₃ is the limiting)

Ratio is 2:4 (double)

If I have 0.5 moles of oxide, I will produce the double, in the reaction.

1 mol of Fe, will be produce so its mass is 55.85 g
