It must be exactly 10.0 grams..... law of conservation of mass
kirza4 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The answer is B

Explanation:

The answer is exactly 10 grams because of the law of conservation of mass which states that for a closed system, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, hence the mass of the products formed after the reaction cannot increase nor decrease as this will violate the law stated earlier.

The above explanation proves the reason for option B. The remaining options suggest either an increase or a decrease in the mass of the product formed which is not possible.

When 20.0 grams of an unknown compound are dissolved in 500. grams of benzene, the freezing point of the resulting solution is 3
Lelu [443]

Answer: 120g/mol

Explanation:

The first step we are to take is to calculate the freezing point depression of the solution.

ΔT(f) = freezing point of pure solvent - freezing point of solution

ΔT(f) = 5.48 - 3.77

ΔT(f) = 1.71°C

Next we are to calculate the molal concentration of the solution using freezing point depression

ΔT(f) = K(f) * m

m = ΔT(f)/K(f)

m = 1.71/5.12

m = 0.333 molal

Now, we calculate the molecular weight of the unknown...

m = 0.333 mol = 0.333 mol X per kg of benzene

moles of X = 0.333 mol of X per kg of benzene * 0.5kg of benzene

moles of X = 0.1665

molecular weight of X = 20g of X/0.1665

molecular weight of X = 120/mol

AfilCa [17]

Answer: well i guess we can say that  is a scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution and it is important to keep ph of hot tub water between 7 and 7.6 because if it is not balanced the water  can negatively affect your tub.

Explanation:

pH is an extremely important chemical level to maintain in your spa's water chemistry. A high pH or a low pH will spell trouble for you and your spa. On the pH scale, a reading of 7.4-7.6 indicates perfectly balanced pH. Any number lower than 7.4 means that your water is now considered “acidic”.

A 59.0 mL portion of a 1.80 M solution is diluted to a total volume of 258 mL. A 129 mL portion of that solution is diluted by a
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

0.170 M

Explanation:

As this is a <em>series of dilutions</em>, we can continuosly<em> use the C₁V₁=C₂V₂ formula </em>to solve this problem:

For the first step:

  • 59.0 mL * 1.80 M = 258 mL * C₂
  • C₂ = 0.412 M

Then for when 129 mL of that 0.412 M are diluted by adding 183 mL of water:

  • V₂ = 129 mL + 183 mL = 312 mL

Using <em>C₁V₁=C₂V₂:</em>

  • 129 mL * 0.412 M = 312 mL * C₂
  • C₂ = 0.170 M
