Answer:
0.576M and 0.655m
Explanation:
<em>...Dissolves 15.0g of styrene (C₈H₈) in 250.mL of a solvent with a density of 0.88g/mL...</em>
<em />
Molarity is defined as moles of solute (Styrene in this case) per liter of solution whereas molality is the moles of solute per kg of solvent. Thus, we need to find the moles of styrene, the volume in liters of the solution and the mass in kg of the solvent as follows:
<em>Moles styrene:</em>
Molar mass C₈H₈:
8C = 12.01g/mol*8 = 96.08g/mol
8H = 1.005g/mol* 8 = 8.04g/mol
96.08g/mol + 8.04g/mol = 104.12g/mol
Moles of 15.0g of styrene are:
15.0g * (1mol / 104.12g) = 0.144 moles of styrene
<em>Liters solution:</em>
250mL * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.250L
<em>kg solvent:</em>
250mL * (0.88g/mL) * (1kg / 1000g) = 0.220kg
Molarity is:
0.144 moles / 0.250L =
<h3>0.576M</h3>
Molality is:
0.144 moles / 0.220kg =
<h3>0.655m</h3>
Answer:
As per the general rule for finding oxidation number, When H is bonded with non-metal it has oxidation number as 1. As in the given ion, hydrogen is bonded with non-metal oxygen and there are three hydrogen atom, the oxidation number of hydrogen atom is 3.
