Answer:
molar composition for liquid
xb= 0.24
xt=0.76
molar composition for vapor
yb=0.51
yt=0.49
Explanation:
For an ideal solution we can use the Raoult law.
Raoult law: in an ideal liquid solution, the vapor pressure for every component in the solution (partial pressure) is equal to the vapor pressure of every pure component multiple by its molar fraction.
For toluene and benzene would be:

Where:
is partial pressure for benzene in the liquid
is benzene molar fraction in the liquid
vapor pressure for pure benzene.
The total pressure in the solution is:
And
Working on the equation for total pressure we have:
Since
We know P and both vapor pressures so we can clear
from the equation.
So
To get the mole fraction for the vapor we know that in the equilibrium:
So
Something that we can see in these compositions is that the liquid is richer in the less volatile compound (toluene) and the vapor in the more volatile compound (benzene). If we take away this vapor from the solution, the solution is going to reach a new state of equilibrium, where more vapor will be produced. This vapor will have a higher molar fraction of the more volatile compound. If we do this a lot of times, we can get a vapor that is almost pure in the more volatile compound. This is principle used in the fractional distillation.
Answer:
CH₂
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Percentage composition:
Carbon = 40.1%
Hydrogen = 6.6%
Unknown:
Empirical formula of the compound = ?
Solution:
The empirical formula of a substance is its simplest formula.
Elements Carbon Hydrogen
Percentage
Composition 40.1 6.6
Molecular mass 12 1
Number of moles 40.1/12 6.6/1
3.342 6.6
Divide through by
the smallest 3.342/3.342 6.6/3.342
1 2
So the empirical formula of the compound is CH₂
Compounds are classified according to the elements that make them up. For example, oxides contain one or more oxygen atoms, hydrides contain one or more hydrogen atoms.
compounds form different types of bonds too. a metal and nonmetal element will create an ionic bond, two nonmetal elements create covalent bonds
Answer:
a lithium atom (Z=3, A=7 AMU) contains three protons (found from Z), three electrons (as the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons in an atom), and four neutrons (7 – 3 = 4).
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct option is:
A) by direct or indirect contact between objects at different temperatures
Explanation:
Heat can be transferred in three different methods:
Conduction, Convection and Radiation
Conduction is heat transfer through direct contact between substances at different temperatures.
Convection is the heat transfer which takes place through air currents.
Radiation is the heat transfer that does not require contact between two objects.
Hence, heat transfer can take place through direct or indirect contact between objects at different temperatures.
