<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.

A sample of 10.6 g of KNO3 was dissolved in 251.0 g of water at 25 oC in a calorimeter. The final temperature of the solution wa
finlep [7]

Answer:

36.55kJ/mol

Explanation:

The heat of solution is the change in heat when the KNO3 dissolves in water:

KNO3(aq) → K+(aq) + NO3-(aq)

As the temperature decreases, the reaction is endothermic and the molar heat of solution is positive.

To solve the molar heat we need to find the moles of KNO3 dissolved and the change in heat as follows:

<em>Moles KNO3 -Molar mass: 101.1032g/mol-</em>

10.6g * (1mol/101.1032g) = 0.1048 moles KNO3

<em>Change in heat:</em>

q = m*S*ΔT

<em>Where q is heat in J,</em>

<em>m is the mass of the solution: 10.6g + 251.0g = 261.6g</em>

S is specififc heat of solution: 4.184J/g°C -Assuming is the same than pure water-

And ΔT is change in temperature: 25°C - 21.5°C = 3.5°C

q = 261.6g*4.184J/g°C*3.5°C

q = 3830.87J

<em>Molar heat of solution:</em>

3830.87J/0.1048 moles KNO3 =

36554J/mol =

<h3>36.55kJ/mol</h3>

Caleb is an inventor who has designed a new kind of fishing net. He is looking for a strong, flexible material that can be used
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

c. Polystyrene

Explanation:

Caleb wants a synthetic material that is not soluble in water, so it must be a nonpolar material because water is polar.

Cellulose is a nonpolar molecular, but is a natural product;

Nylon is a synthetic compound, but is polar, so it' soluble in water;

Vulcanized rubber is polar and the rubber is a natural compound.

The only compound that he can use is polystyrene, which is insoluble in water and is a synthetic material.
