<span>When a solute is added to a solvent, some properties are affected and these set of properties are called colligative properties. The properties depend on the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent. These properties include freezing point depression, boiling point elevation, osmotic pressure and vapor pressure lowering.<span> </span></span>

Answer:

The boiling point increases and freezing point decreases on addition of non volatile solute in a solvent.

Explanation:

When we add a non volatile solute in a volatile solvent, the vapor pressure of the resulting solution is lower than the vapor pressure of pure solvent. Due to decrease in vapor pressure:

a) The temperature required to boil the solution increases (boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquids is equal to atmospheric pressure). This is known as elevation in boiling point. It is a colligative property which depends upon number of solute particles.

b) The temperature required to freeze a liquid decreases and this is known as depression in freezing point, which is also a colligative property which depends upon number of solute particles.

Which is the limiting reagent in the following reaction given that you start with 15.5 g of Na2S and 12.1 g CuSO4? Reaction: Na2
NemiM [27]

Answer:

CuSO4

Explanation:

Na2S + CuSO4 → Na2SO4 + CuS

The reaction is balanced (same number of elements in each side)

To determine limiting reagent you need to know the moles you have of each.

Molar mass Na2S = 23 * 2 + 32 = 78

Molar mass CuSO4 = 63.5 + 32 + 16 * 4 = 159.5

Na2S mole = 15.5 / 78 = 0.2

CuSO4 mole = 12.1/159.5 = 0.076

*Remember mole = mass / MM

With that information now you have to divide each moles by its respective stoichiometric coefficient

Na2S stoichiometric coefficient : 1

Na2S : 0.2 / 1 = 0.2

CuSO4 stoichiometric coefficient: 1

CuSO4: 0.076 / 1 = 0.076

The smaller number between them its the limiting reagent, CuSO4

How many grams of the excess reactant remain assuming the reaction goes to completion and that you start with 15.5g of na2s and
tangare [24]
The reaction between Na2S and CuSO4 will give us the balanced chemical reaction of,
                                     Na2S + CUSO4 --> Na2SO4 + CuS
This means that for every 78g of Na2S, there needs to be 159.6 g of CuSO4. The ratio is equal to 0.4887 of Na2S: 1 of CuSO4. Thus, for every 12.1g of CuSO4, we need only 5.91 g of Na2S. Thus, there is an excess of 9.58 g of Na2S. The answer is letter C.

A sample of methane gas has a volume of 10 l at a pressure of 1.5 atm and a temperature of 20 °c. what volume does the gas occup
a_sh-v [17]
We can use combined gas laws to solve for the volume of the gas
 \frac{PV}{T}
where P - pressure, V - volume , T - temperature and k - constant
\frac{P1V1}{T1} = \frac{P2V2}{T2}
parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation 
T1 - temperature in Kelvin - 20 °C + 273 = 293 K
T2 - 40 °C + 273 = 313 K
substituting the values 
\frac{1.5 atm*10L}{293 K} =  \frac{0.9 atm*V}{313K}
V = 17.8 L
volume of the gas is 17.8 L

Using Avogadro's Number (6.02*10^23): Calculate the number of molecules in 3.00 moles H2S . Express your answer numerically in m
mars1129 [50]
Avagadro's number is just a measurement. One mole is 6.022 X 10^23 of anything - atoms, molecules, marbles... anything. 
<span>1) If one mole = 6.022 X 10^23, then 8.00mol of H2S is: </span>
<span>(3.00mol H2S) (6.022 X 10^23 molecules H2S / 1 mol H2S) = 1.8060 X 10^24 molecules H2S. </span>
<span>Rounded to 3 sig figs =1.81 X 10^24 molecules H2S 
</span>part2.
<span> This one uses moles in the stoichiometric sense as well as the measurement. One formula unit of MgCl2 contains 1 mole Mg and 2 moles Cl. </span>
<span>First, figure out how many moles of formula units there are. </span>
(1.81 X 10^24 FU's) (1mol MgCl2 / 6.022 X 10^23 FU's) = 3.0056mol MgCl2.

<span>Now, we know that there are 2 moles of Cl in every mole of MgCl2 (2 Cl atoms in every unit of MgCl2). From this we can determine how many moles of Cl atoms there are: </span>
<span>(3.0056mol MgCl2) (2mol Cl atoms / 1mol MgCl2) = 6.0112mol Cl atoms. </span>
<span>Now round to 3 sig figs = 10.0mol Cl atoms</span>
