A solution contains naphthalene (C10H8) dissolved in hexane (C6H14) at a concentration of 13.06% naphthalene by mass. Calculate

the vapor pressure at 25 ∘C of hexane above the solution. The vapor pressure of pure hexane at 25 ∘C is 151 torr.

Answer: The vapor pressure of the solution at 25^0C is 137 torr

Explanation:

As the relative lowering of vapor pressure is directly proportional to the amount of dissolved solute.

The formula for relative lowering of vapor pressure will be,

\frac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}=i\times x_2

where,

\frac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}= relative lowering in vapor pressure

i = Van'T Hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolytes)

x_2 = mole fraction of solute  =\frac{\text {moles of solute}}{\text {total moles}}

Given : 13.06 g of napthalene is present in 100 g of solution, thus (100-13.06) g = 86.94 g of hexane

moles of solute (napthalene) = \frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{13.06g}{128g/mol}=0.102moles

moles of solvent (hexane) = \frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{86.94g}{86g/mol}=1.01moles

Total moles = moles of solute (napthalene)  + moles of solvent (hexane) = 0.102 + 1.01 = 1.112

x_2 = mole fraction of solute (napthalene) =\frac{0.102}{1.112}=0.0917

\frac{151-p_s}{151}=1\times 0.0917

p_s=137torr

Thus the vapor pressure of the solution at 25^0C is 137 torr

Is the H¬O bond in water nonpolar covalent, polar covalent, or ionic? Define each term, and explain your choice.
nydimaria [60]

Like hydrogen fluoride (HF), water (H2O) is a polar covalent molecule.

The electron pair in a non-polar covalent bond is shared equally by the two bonded atoms, but in a polar covalent bond, the electron pair is shared unequally by the two bonded atoms. Differences in electronegativity are what lead to polar bonding.

The entire transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms is referred to as an ionic bond. It is a kind of chemical connection that produces two ions with opposing charges. In ionic bonding, the nonmetal takes the lost electrons to form a negatively charged anion while the metal loses them to become a positively charged cation.

Calculate the moles of Cu in 7.4×1021 atoms of Cu.
IceJOKER [234]
1 moles -------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
 ?? moles ----- 7.4x10²¹ atoms

moles = 7.4x10²¹ / 6.02x10²³

 = 0.01229 moles

A solution containing 8.3 g of a nonvolatile, nondissociating substance dissolved in 1.00 mol of chloroform, CHCl3, has a vapor
Margaret [11]

Answer:

a. Xm = 0.0229

b. 0.0234 moles

c. 354.1 g/mol

Explanation:

ΔP = P° . Xm

ΔP = P° - P', where P° is vapor pressure of pure solvent and P', vapor pressure of solution-

This is the formula for lowering vapor pressure.

If we apply the data given: 523 Torr - 511 Torr = 523 . Xm

Xm = ( 523 Torr - 511 Torr) / 523 Torr → 0.0229

Xm = Mole fraction of solute → Moles of solute / Total moles (sv + solute)

We can make this equation to determine moles of solute

0.0229 = Moles of solute / Moles of solute + 1

0.0229 (Moles of solute + 1) = Moles of solute

0.0229 = Moles of solute - 0.0229 moles of solute

0.0229 = 0.9771 moles of solute → 0.0229 / 0.9971 = 0.0234 moles

Molecular mass of solute → g/mol → 8.3 g / 0.0234 mol = 354.1 g/mol

At 570. mm Hg and 25°C, a gas sample ne (in mm Hg) at a volume of 1250 mL and a temperature of 175°C and 25°C, a gas sample has
maw [93]

Answer:

final pressure ( P2) = 467.37 mm Hg

Explanation:

ideal gas:

  • PV = nRT

∴ P1 = 570 mm Hg * ( atm / 760 mm Hg ) = 0.75 atm

∴ T1 = 25 ° C = 298 K

∴ V1 = 1.250 L

∴ R = 0.082 atm L / K mol

⇒ n = P1*V1 / R*T1

⇒ n = (( 0.75 ) * ( 1.25 )) / (( 0.082 ) * ( 298 ))

⇒ n = 0.038 mol gas

∴ T2 = 175 °C ( 448 K )

∴ V2 = 2.270 L

⇒ P2 = nRT2 / V2

⇒ P2 = (( 0.038 ) * ( 0.082 ) * ( 448 )) / 2.270

⇒ P2 = 0.615 atm * ( 760 mm Hg / atm ) = 467.37 mm Hg
