Answer:

                     0.787 mol.Kg⁻¹   or    0.787 m

Explanation:

Data Given:

                  Mass =  m  =  75.8 g

                  Volume  =  V  =  1.55 L = 1550 mL

                  M.Mass of Ethylene Glycol  =  62.07 g/mol

                  Density of water  =  d = 1.0 g/mL

To Find:

                   Molality  =  <u>??</u>

Molality is a unit of concentration and is defined as the number of moles of solute per Kg of a solvent.

                    Molality  =  Moles of Solute / Kg of Solvent  --- (1)

First Calculate Moles of Solute as;

                    Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

                    Moles  =  75.8 g / 62.07 g/mol

                    Moles  = 1.22 moles

Secondly calculate mass of water as,

                    mass of water  =  density × volume

                    mass of water  =  1.0 g/mL × 1550 mL

                    mass of water  =  1550 g or 1.55 Kg

Now, putting values of moles and mass of solvent in equation 1,

                    Molality  =  1.22 mol / 1.55 Kg

                    Molality  =  0.787 mol.Kg⁻¹   or    0.787 m

How do you make molecular equations a balanced iconic.

<span>First, write the net ionic equation for the unbalanced reaction. If you are given a word equation to balance, you'll need to be able to identify strong electrolytes, weak electrolytes and insoluble compounds. Strong electrolytes completely dissociate into their ions in water. Examples of strong electrolytes are strong acids, strong bases, and soluble salts. Weak electrolytes yield very few ions in solution, so they are represented by their molecular formula (not written as ions). Water, weak acids, and weak bases are examples of weak electrolytes. The pH of a solution can cause them to dissociate, but in those situations, you'll be presented an ionic equation, not a word problem. Insoluble compounds do not dissociate into ions, so they are represented by the molecular formula. A table is provided to help you determine whether or not a chemical is soluble, but it's a good idea to memorize the solubility rules.

</span><span><span>arate the net ionic equation into the two half-reactions. This means identifying and separating the reaction into an oxidation half-reaction and a reduction half-reaction. </span><span>For one of the half-reactions, balance the atoms except for O and H. You want the same number of atoms of each element on each side of the equation. </span><span>Repeat this with the other half-reaction. </span><span>Add H2O to balance the O atoms. Add H+ to balance the H atoms. The atoms (mass) should balance out now. </span><span>Now balance charge. Add e- (electrons) to one side of each half-reaction to balance charge. You may need to multiply the electrons the the two half-reactions to get the charge to balance out. It's fine to change coefficients as long as you change them on both sides of the equation. </span><span>Now, add the two half-reactions together. Inspect the final equation to make sure it is balanced. Electrons on both sides of the ionic equation must cancel out. </span><span>Double-check your work! Make sure there are equal numbers of each type of atom on both sides of the equation. Make sure the overall charge is the same on both sides of the ionic equation. </span><span>If the reaction takes place in a basic solution, add an equal number of OH- as you have H+ ions. Do this for both sides of the equation and combine H+ and OH- ions to form H2O. </span><span>Be sure to indicate the state of each species. Indicate solid with (s), liquid for (l), gas with (g), and aqueous solution with (aq). </span><span>Remember, a balanced net ionic equation only describes chemical species that participate in the reaction. Drop additional substances from the equation.ExampleThe net ionic equation for the reaction you get mixing 1 M HCl and 1 M NaOH is:H+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)Even though sodium and chlorine exist in the reaction, the Cl- and Na+ ions are not written in the net ionic equation because they don't participate in the reaction.</span></span>

How are energy and work related? A. Energy is the force needed to do work B. Work times energy is force C. Energy is the capacit
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

I believe the answer is A

Explanation:

Work and energy are related because when you work, you cause displacement in the object you are exerting upon. While this happens, you transfer energy between the systems. Both work and energy share the same SI unit, called the joule.
