Answer:

333.7g of antifreeze

Explanation:

Freezing point depression in a solvent (In this case, water) occurs by the addition of a solute. The law is:

ΔT = Kf × m × i

Where:

ΔT is change in temperature (0°C - -20°C = 20°C)

Kf is freezing point depression constant (1.86°C / m)

m is molality of solution (moles solute / 0.5 kg solvent -500g water-)

i is Van't Hoff factor (1, assuming antifreeze is ethylene glycol -C₂H₄(OH)₂)

Replacing:

20°C = 1.86°C / m × moles solute / 0.5 kg solvent × 1

5.376 = moles solute

As molar mass of ethylene glycol is 62.07g/mol:

5.376 moles × (62.07g / 1mol) = <em>333.7g of antifreeze</em>.

1.What are two factors that are necessary for hurricane development?

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

1. tropical storms and hurricanes

2.After a cold front moves through your area, you may notice that the temperature is cooler, the rain has stopped, and the cumulus clouds are replaced by stratus and stratocumulus clouds or clear skies.

3.Warm fronts often bring stormy weather as the warm air mass at the surface rises above the cool air mass, making clouds and storms. Warm fronts move more slowly than cold fronts because it is more difficult for the warm air to push the cold, dense air across the Earth's surface.

Cavendish’s name for hydrogen gas was "inflammable air." The word inflammable means "to burn. "Why did Cavendish use this name?

saul85 [17]

He used that name because if you lit hydrogen on fire it would catch. therefore, it was dangerous to be around. think of it as a kind of warning. :) hope that helps.

The [OH-] of a solution is 7.89 10^-12 M. What is the pH of the solution? it acidic or basic? *

kompoz [17]

Answer: pH = 2,897 , basic $[H+][OH-] = 10^{-14} ==> [H+] = \frac{10^{-14}}{7,89*10^{-12} } =\frac{1}{789} \\pH= -lg([H+]) = 2,897 \\pH basic$
