Explanation:
An aqueous solution of potassium sulfate exhibits colligative properties. Colligative properties are properties that depends on the concentration of a substance in a solution. These properties are freezing point depression, vapor pressure lowering, osmotic pressure and boiling point elevation. For this problem we use the concept of freezing point depression since we are given the freezing point of the solution. Freezing point depression is as:
ΔT = -k(f) x m x i
-2.24 - 0 = -1.86 x m x 3
<span>m = 0.4014
Thus, the molality of the solution is 0.4014.</span>
Answer:
C. chromium is a metal that is less reactive than sodium.
Explanation:
Hello.
Given the options:
A. chromium is a nonmetal and therefore a good conductor of heat and electricity
.
B. chromium is a metal that is more reactive than potassium
.
C. chromium is a metal that is less reactive than sodium
.
D. chromium is a noble gas that is not reactive.
In this case, since chromium is in period 4 group VIB we infer it is a transition metal which slightly reacts with acids and poorly reacts with oxygen and other oxidizing substances. Thus, in comparison with both sodium and potassium which are highly reactive even with water as they get on fire, we can say that it is less reactive than both potassium and sodium, therefore, answer is: C. chromium is a metal that is less reactive than sodium.
Best regards.
