Why is calcium chloride (rock salt, CaCl2) more effective than sodium chloride (table salt, NaCl) at de-icing roads in the winte

r? A. Calcium chloride only breaks into 2 ions, while sodium chloride does not break up and remains 1 ion. B. Calcium is a larger molecule than sodium, so it has a greater effect. C. The additional chlorine atom forms a stronger bond between the atoms in calcium chloride than in sodium chloride, so calcium chloride remains one molecule while sodium chloride breaks apart. D. Calcium chloride breaks into 3 ions, while sodium chloride only breaks into 2 ions.

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. Calcium chloride breaks into 3 ions, while sodium chloride only breaks into 2 ions

Explanation:

To help melt the ice on icy streets, calcium chloride (CaCl₂) is a more preferred salt type to sodium chloride (NaCl) as when it dissociates into ions in the ice, it forms three ions: a calcium ion, Ca²⁺, and two chloride ions, 2 Cl⁻, while sodium chloride forms two ions: one sodium ion, Na⁺, and one chloride ion, Cl⁻

According to the freezing point depression equation, we have;

ΔT = K_f × m × i

Where;

ΔT = Change in freezing point temperature

K_f = The freezing point depression constant

m = The solution's molality

i = van't Hoff factor

The calcium chloride salt will cause the most depression because the van't Hoff factor is 3 for calcium chloride and 2 for sodium chloride.

Answer:

Given molecules are vinegar and triglycerides.

Explanation:

The dipole is a vector quantity and it is heading from less electronegative atom to more electronegative atom in a polar covalent bond.

If you mixed three Dixie cups’ contents together containing 0.05L of 1.0M lemonade, 0.05L of 2.5M lemonade, and 0.05L of 0.5M le
viva [34]

Molarity of the resulting solution will be 1.33 M.

<u>Explanation:</u>

First we have to find the number of moles for each of the solution using the formula, moles = molarity × volume

For cup 1  = 1  M ×0.05 L = 0.05 moles

For cup 2 = 2.5 M × 0.05 L= 0.125 moles

For cup 3 = 0.5 M × 0.05 L = 0.025 moles

Total moles = 0.05 + 0.125 + 0.025  = 0.2 moles

We have to find the total volume as, 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 0.15 L

Now we have to find the molarity as, moles / volume = 0.2 moles/ 0.15 L = 1.33 M
