To melt the ice on your driveway, you can use two moles of rock salt (NaCl) or two moles of calcium chloride (CaCl2). Which solu

te will have the greatest effect and why?
a) NaCl because it is completely soluble in water.
b) NaCl because it produces fewer moles of solute particles per mole of compound.
c) CaCl2 because it produces more moles of solute particles per mole of compound.
d) CaCl2 because it is less volatile than NaCl.

CaCl_2 because it produces more moles of solute particles per mole of compound.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Freezing point depression depend on the "amount of solute particles" . Freezing point is also a colligative property. As we know, calcium chloride  will dissociate into 3 particles  whereas sodium chloride dissociate into only 2 particles. So, an aqueous solution calcium chloride would be effective than sodium chloride.  

Also the water's boiling point with calcium chloride is higher. So CaCl_2 is considered as a good  road salt since it produces more ions per formula unit of  salt that is  dissolved  than NaCl

I know it would be calcium chloride, not sure why. Maybe someone could answer that part.

An empty Erlenmeyer flask weighs 241.3 g. When filled with water (d = 1.00 g/cm³), the flask and its contents weigh 489.1 g. (a)
miskamm [114]

The answer is- Volume of flask = 247.8 cm^3 or 247.8 mL.

Density (d) is defined as mass of substance divided by its volume. Thus, if mass and density are known, then Volume can be determined.

What is the formula of volume in terms of density?

  • Let mass of substance be 'm' and volume be 'V'. Thus, as per the definition of density, it is expressed as-

d = \frac{m}{V}

Thus, volume can be expressed as-

V =\frac{m}{d}

  • Now, mass of empty flask = 241.3 g and the mass of  (flask + Water) = 489.1 g.

Thus, mass of water = 489.1\ g- 241.3\ g = 247.8\ g.

  • Thus, mass of water = 247.8 g and density of water =1.00\ g/cm^3. Its volume is calculated as-

V = \frac{247.8\ g}{1.00\ g/cm^3}=247.8\ cm^3

  • Hence, volume of flask = 247.8 cm^3 or 247.8 mL.

How many molecules are in 34.61 grams of sulfur dioxide?
SSSSS [86.1K]

This problem is providing us with the mass of sulfur dioxide and the molecules contained are required. At the end, the result turns out to be 3.252x10²³ molecules, according to:

<h3>Avogadro's number:</h3>

In chemistry, we use the Avogadro's number in order to successfully perform mole-mass-particles calculations. Defined as 6.022x10²³, it provides the number of atoms, molecules and ions in one mole of the substance.

In this case, in order to obtain the result, one first calculates the moles in 34.61 grams of sulfur dioxide and then utilize the Avogadro's number to obtain the number of molecules as shown below:

34.61gSO_2*\frac{1molSO_2}{64.1gSO_2}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molecules}{1molSO_2}  \\\\3.252x10^{23}molecules

masha68 [24]

<span>To calculate the average mass of the element, we take the summation of the product of the isotope mass and the percent abundance. In this case, it is 0.9963 * 14.003 amu + 0.0037* 15.00 amu. This is equal to an average mass of 14.00668889 amu.</span>
