Answer:
Explanation:
The crabs cannot see the plankton they eat near the ocean floor. For the crabs to see the plankton, some color of visible light would need to reach the plankton so that it can be reflected into the crabs' eyes.
Answer:
89.4%
Explanation:
Initially, there is 5.0 of the acetanilide in 100 mL of water, then the solution is chilled at 0ºC. The solubility represents the amount that the solvent (water) can dissolve of the solute (acetanilide). So, at 0ºC, 100 mL of water can dissolve till 0.53 g of the compound, the rest will precipitate and will be recovered.
So, the mass that is recovered is 5.0 - 0.53 = 4.47 g
The percent recovery is:
(4.47/5)x100% = 89.4%
Answer:
1.12g/mol
Explanation:
The freezing point depression of a solvent for the addition of a solute follows the equation:
ΔT = Kf*m*i
<em>Where ΔT is change in temperature (Benzonitrile freezing point: -12.82°C; Freezing point solution: 13.4°C)</em>
<em>ΔT = 13.4°C - (-12.82) = 26.22°C</em>
<em>m is molality of the solution</em>
<em>Kf is freezing point depression constant of benzonitrile (5.35°Ckgmol⁻¹)</em>
<em>And i is Van't Hoff factor (1 for all solutes in benzonitrile)</em>
Replacing:
26.22°C = 5.35°Ckgmol⁻¹*m*1
4.90mol/kg = molality of the compound X
As the mass of the solvent is 100g = 0.100kg:
4.9mol/kg * 0.100kg = 0.490moles
There are 0.490 moles of X in 551mg = 0.551g, the molar mass (Ratio of grams and moles) is:
0.551g / 0.490mol
= 1.12g/mol
<em>This result has no sense but is the result by using the freezing point of the solution = 13.4°C. Has more sense a value of -13.4°C.</em>
