Answer:

The mass percentage of calcium nitrate is 31.23%.

Explanation:

Let the the mass of calcium nitrate be x and mass of potassium chloride be y.

Total mass of  mixture = 19.12 g

x + y = 19.12 g..(1)

Mass of solvent = 149 g = 0.149 kg

Freezing point of the solution,T_f = -5.77 °C

Molal freezing constant of water = 1.86 °C/m =1.86 °C/(mol/kg)

The van't Hoff factor contribution by calcium nitrate is 3 and by potassium chloride is 2.So:

i = 3

i' = 2

Freezing point of water = T = 0°C

\Delta T_f=T-T_f=0^oC-(-5.77^oC)=5.77^oC

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

Molality=m(mol/kg)=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}}

5.77^oC=1.86 ^oC/(mol/kg)\times (\frac{ i\times x}{164 g/mol\times 0.149 kg}+\frac{i'\times y}{74.5 g/mol0.149 kg})

On solving we get:

\frac{3x}{164 g/mol}+\frac{2x}{74.5 g/mol}=0.4622 mol....(2)

Solving equation (1)(2) for x and y:

x =5.973 g

y = 13.147 g

Mass percent of Ca(NO_3)_2 in the mixture:

\frac{x}{19.21 g}\times 100=\frac{5.973 g}{19.12 g}=31.23\%

The mass percentage of calcium nitrate is 31.23%.

A student was trying to find the relationship between mass and force. He placed four different masses on a table and pulled them
Gwar [14]

Answer:

B. There is a direct proportion between the mass and force listed in the table.

Explanation:

From the table, the values of force increases with increase in the value of mass.

if 5kg=25 N

Finding the contant of proportionality k;

k=25/5=5

thus M=k(F)...........where M is mass in kg and F is force in newton, then

M=5F

This show that for every value of mass, we get the value of Force if we multiply by a contant k=5

This means there is a direct proportionality relation between mass and force in the table.

How does inertia affect a person who is not wearing a seatbelt during a collision?
elena55 [62]
<span>The rule of inertia states that an object in motion will stay in motion unless another force has acted upon it. Because the person doesn't have their seatbelt on, they will keep moving. But if they were wearing a seatbelt, that would work as the force that is supposed to stop the person from flying forward.

Hope this helps :)
