Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in the solid state because the ions are held in a lattice and do not move freely. However, when they are melted or dissolved in water, they can conduct electricity. This is because the ions are free to move in the molten state or aqueous solution.

What is the volume of a sample of CO2 at STP that has a volume of 75.0mL at 30.0°C and 91kPa
Nezavi [6.7K]

60.7 ml is the volume of a sample of CO2 at STP that has a volume of 75.0mL at 30.0°C and 91kPa.

Explanation:

Data given:

V1 = 75 ml

T1 = 30 Degrees or 273.15 + 30 = 303.15 K

P1 = 91 KPa

V2  =?

P2 = 1 atm or 101.3 KPa

T2 = 273.15 K

At STP the pressure is 1 atm and the temperature is 273.15 K

applying Gas Law:

\frac{P1VI}{T1}= \frac{P2V2}{T2}

putting the values in the equation of Gas Law:

V2 = \frac{P1V1T2}{P2T1}

V2 = \frac{91 X 75 X 273.15}{303.15 X 101.3}

V2 = 60.7 ml

at STP the volume of carbon dioxide gas is 60.7 ml.

If you need to extract a 50 ml aqueous solution with 50 ml of dichloromethane, what is the minimum size of a separatory funnel y
tatuchka [14]

The dichloromethane (DCM) has less density than water and also the polarity of water is much more than DCM. So the mixture of water and dichloromethane will always be a heterogeneous mixture. In the mixture dichloromethane will be always up of the water layer. The volume of the separatory funnel which contains the mixture of DCM and water must have to be more than the total volume of the liquids thus the volume of the funnel will be more than (50+50) = 100mL.

The caution have to consider during the separation are-

1. The separatory funnel have to shake well with lid and have to settle down for some times until the two liquid separated.

2. The lid should be open very slowly as the vapor pressure of DCM is more and it will float on the water.

3. After this the stopcock should be opened and slowly the water will come out first followed by DCM.
