When an ionic compound such as sodium chloride (NaCl) is placed in water, the component atoms of the NaCl crystal dissociate int

o individual sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ions (Cl-). In contrast, the atoms of covalently bonded molecules (e.g., glucose, sucrose, glycerol) do not generally dissociate when placed in aqueous solution. Which of the following solutions would be expected to contain the greatest number of solute particles (molecules or ions)?
A) 1 L of 1.0 M NaCl
B) 1 L of 0.5 M NaCl
C) 1 L of 0.5 M glucose
D) 1 L of 1.0 M glucose
E) C and D will contain equal numbers of particles.

Answer:

  • <em>The solution expected to contain the greatest number of solute particles is: </em><u>A) 1 L of 1.0 M NaCl</u>

Explanation:

The number of particles is calculated as:

a) <u>For Ionic compounds</u>:

  • molarity × volume in liters × number of ions per unit formula.

b) <u>For covalent compounds</u>:

  • molarity × volume in liters

The difference is a factor which is the number of particles resulting from the dissociation or ionization of one mole of the ionic compound.

So, calling M the molarity, you can write:

  • # of particles = M × liters × factor

This table show the calculations for the four solutions from the list of choices:

Compound    kind         Particles in solution  Molarity   # of particles

                                       (dissociation)              (M)          in 1 liter

A) NaCl          ionic            ions Na⁺ and Cl⁻        1.0            1.0 × 1 × 2 = 2

B) NaCl          ionic            ions Na⁺ anc Cl⁻        0.5           0.5 × 1 × 2 = 1

C) Glucose    covalent     molecules                   0.5          0.5 × 1 × 1 = 0.5

D) Glucose    covalent     molecules                   1.0           1.0 × 1  × 1 = 1

Therefore, the rank in increasing number of particles is for the list of solutions given is: C < B = D < A, which means that the solution expected to contain the greatest number of solute particles is the solution A) 1 L of 1.0 M NaCl.

Newton’s second law of motion is a dot product of mass and acceleration, if you remove the table from, under the book, gravity will act on the book and pull it downwards to the centre of the earth

Newton's Second law of motion states that "<em>the </em><em>acceleration</em><em> of an object depends upon </em><em>two</em><em> </em><em>variables</em><em> – the net force acting on the object and the mass of the object.</em>"

In our case the mass of the book and the force of gravity

What is the volume of an object with a density of 2.6 g/cm³ and a mass of 30.5g?
inessss [21]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>11.73 mL</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density}

From the question

mass of object = 30.5 g

Density = 2.6 g/cm³

The volume is

volume =  \frac{30.5}{2.6}  \\  = 11.7307692...

We have the final answer as

<h3>11.73 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
