Answer:

The correct answer is 2.44 grams.

Explanation:

The partition coefficient, K = concentration of solute in ether / concentration of solute in water

As partition coefficient is 1, therefore, the concentration of solute in both the solvents would be similar.  

Thus, when 25 milliliters of ether is added to 100 ml of water Wether/25 = Wwater/100

However, Wwater + Wether = 5.00 g

Wwater = 5.00 g - Wether

So, Wether/25 = 5.00 - Wether/100

Wether = 1.00 g

Thus, Wwater = 5.00 - 1.00 = 4.00 grams

So, for the first time, the solute extracted by ether is 1.0 gram

Now add 25 milliliters of ether to 4.00 grams of solute of 100 ml water,

Wwater + Wether = 4.00 g

Wwater = 4.00 g - Wwater

So, Wether/25 = 4.00 - Wether/100

Wether = 0.8

Thus, Wwater = 4.0 - 0.8 = 3.2 grams

So, for the second time the amount of solute extracted by ether is 0.8 gram.  

Now, add 25 ml of ether to 3.2 grams of solute of 100 ml water

Wwater + Wether = 3.20 g

Wwater = 3.20 - Wether

So, Wether/25 = 3.20 - Wether/100

Thus, Wwater = 3.20 - 0.64 = 2.56 grams

So, for the third time, the amount of solute extracted by ether is 0.64 grams.  

Therefore, total weight of solute extracted by ether is 1.00 + 0.80 + 0.64 = 2.44 grams.

First, in this case, we define the K constant as the solubility of the solute in water divided by the solubility of the solute in ether.

K = (X grams of solute / 75 mL of ethyl ether) / (5 g of solute / 100 mL of water)

K = (X / 75) / (5 / 100)

1 = (X / 75) / (5 / 100)

5 / 100 = X / 75

0,05 = X /75

X = 0,05 × 75 = 3.75 g of solute that will be extracted by the ether

Which of the two substances would have a higher melting point: O2 or quartz (SiO2)n? Explain your answer.
sesenic [268]

Answer:

quartz (SiO2)n

Explanation:

Melting point is defined as the temperature or point at which the substances change its state from solid to liquid.

Quartz (SiO2)n has high melting point than O2 because Quartz (SiO2)n is found in the form of hard, crystalline mineral that is made up of silicon and oxygen atoms having strong covalent bonds between all the atoms. So, a lot of energy is required to break the bond between the atoms and it has a high melting point.

Hence, the correct answer is quartz (SiO2)n.

What is the energy of a photon with a frequency of 9.50 x 1013 Hz?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

\huge{6.295 \times  {10}^{ - 20}  \: J}

Explanation:

The energy of the photon can be found by using the formula

E = hf

where

E is the energy

f is the frequency

h is the Planck's constant which is

6.626 × 10-³⁴ Js

From the question we have

E = 6.626 × 10-³⁴ × 9.5 × 10¹³

We have the final answer as

6.295 \times  {10}^{  - 20}  \: J

Hope this helps you
