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 boy with a mouse is 80 kg stands on a scale in an ascending elevator with an acceleration of 3 m/s What is the resultant upwar
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Upward force on the boy will be 1024 N      

Explanation:

We have given mass of the boy m = 80 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

It is given that elevator is ascending with acceleration of 3m/sec^2

So net acceleration on the boy = 9.8+3 = 12.8 m/sec^2 ( As the car elevator is moving ascending )

So upward force on the boy will be equal to F = m(g+a)

So F=80\times 12.8=1024N

So upward force on the boy will be 1024 N

You connect a voltmeter to an unknown resistor in a circuit in order to measure the potential difference across that resistor. H
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

option (a)

Explanation:

To make a galvanometer into voltmeter, we have to connect a high resistance in series combination.

The voltmeter is connected in parallel combination with teh resistor to find the voltage drop across it.

An ideal voltmeter has very high resistance that means it has a resistance as infinity.

A student has a thin copper beaker containing 100 g of a pure metal in the solid state. The metal is at 215°C, its exact melting
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The metal will melt but their will be no change in temperature.

Explanation:

The metal is at its melting temperature which means it is still in solid phase but have to cross the enthalpy of its condensation at this same temperature to convert into liquid phase.

<u>On supplying heat, the metal's temperature will not change as the heat will be required as enthalpy of condensation to melt the solid to liquid at the melting temperature.</u>
