Answer:

10 m

Explanation:

The mole fraction of FeCl₃ of 0.15, that is, per mole of solution, there are 0.15 moles of FeCl₃ and 1 - 0.15 = 0.85 moles of water.

The molar mass of water is 18.02 g/mol. The mass corresponding to 0.85 moles is:

0.85 mol × 18.02 g/mol = 15 g = 0.015 kg

The molality of FeCl₃ is:

m = moles of solute / kilogram of solvent

m = 0.15 mol / 0.015 kg

m = 10 m

What do molecular clocks have to do with reaction rates?

Akimi4 [234]

The atomic clock is a procedure that uses the change rate of biomolecules to reason the time in ancient times when at least two living things veered. A device utilized by developmental scientists to gauge the rate of speciation utilizing changes in DNA.
Change in DNA/time = biological rate

What best describes the collisions between ideal gas molecules?

Serggg [28]

The molecules are continually colliding with each other and with the walls of the container. When a molecule collides with the wall, they exert small force on the wall The pressure exerted by the gas is due to the sum of all these collision forces. The more particles that hit the walls, the higher the pressure.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct options are A and E

<u>Explanation:</u>

A chemical reaction is defined as the reaction in which two or more chemical substances react to form two or more different chemical substances.

A new substance (product) is formed in a chemical reaction when the bonds between the reactants are broken so that the new bonds between the products can be formed.

For a given chemical reaction:

$HF+NaOH\rightarrow NaF+H_2O$
