8.43g of CaCl2·2H2O is dissolved in 40.0g of H2O. What is the molality of the solution? (Note that the H2O in the CaCl2·2H2O mus
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

[CaCl₂·2H₂O] = 1.43 m

Explanation:

Molality is mol of solute / kg of solvent.

Mass of solvent = 40 g

Let's convert g to kg → 40 g / 1000 = 0.04 kg

Let's determine the moles of solute (mass / molar mass)

8.43 g / 146.98 g/mol = 0.057 mol

Molality = 0.057 mol / 0.04 kg → 1.43

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

(A) N4H6  (B) H2O  (C) LiH  (D) C12H26

Explanation:

The given compounds have been arranged  from left to right in order of increasing percentage by mass of hydrogen.

The percent by mass of hydrogen can be calculated by mass of hydrogen in that compound divided by total mass of that compound and finally multiplying the result with 100 to obtain the required percentage.

Which of the following statements is false? Check all that apply. Gases are far more compressible than liquids The volume occupi
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The false statement is: 3. Because liquid water and liquid carbon tetrachloride do not mix, neither do their vapors

Explanation:

Gas is a state of matter, that has <u>less density than liquids and solids</u>. The gaseous particles have low intermolecular forces and thus they can move freely.

It is a very <u>compressible fluid</u> that has no fixed shape. Gas occupies the whole container in which it is stored, thus taking the shape of the container. Therefore, <u>the volume of the gas is equal to the volume of the container.</u>

<u>Polar liquid like water (H₂O) and nonpolar liquid like carbon tetrachloride, are immiscible. However, in the gaseous state, their vapors form a  homogeneous mixture.</u>

Malic acid, C4H6O5, has been isolated from apples. Because this compound reacts with 2 molar equivalents of base, it is a dicarb
Flura [38]

Answer and explanation:

The attached figure shows five different structures for the chemical formula C4H5O5, but only one of these structures represent the malic acid.

Malic acid is a dicarboxylic acid, this means malic acid has two

-COOH groups.  Also, malic acid is a secundary alcohol, which means it has a  R2-C-OH group.

-Structure A has two carboxylic groups, but it doesn´t have a secundary alcohol.

-Structure B doesn´t have any caborxylic group.

-Structure C has two carboxylic groups and  it is a secundary alcohol. Structure C is the Malic acid
