What physical effect can change the boiling point of a substance?

2 answers:

7 0

The boiling point of a substance is dependent to the pressure. The pressure and saturated temperature are often presented in tables and sometimes in graphs. In addition, the amount of solute in the solution can also change the boiling point of the solvent.

Pressure can affect the boiling pressure of a substance

as when pressure increases the particles are closer together and so require more energy to boil therefore increasing the substances boiling point

hope that helps

Which of these phrases accurately describe disproportionation? Check all that apply.

Olin [163]

Answer:

A single compound is simultaneously oxidized and reduced.

Explanation:

In chemistry, disproportionation is a simultaneous oxidation and reduction of a single chemical specie.

What this means is that; in a disproportionation reaction, only one compound is both oxidized and reduced. This implies that two products are formed during disproportionation. One is the oxidized product while the other is the reduced product.

Consider the disproportionation of CuCl shown below;

2CuCl -----> CuCl2 + Cu

Here, CuCl2 is the oxidized product while Cu is the reduced product.

Answer:

Scientific Explanation of weather change and cause storms is described below in detail.

Explanation:

The weather is just the nature of the environment at any time, including items such as warmth, rainfall, air pressure, and cloud shelter. Daily variations in the weather are due to storms and winds. Seasonal variations are due to the Earth spinning nearby the sun. Warm beginnings often produce stormy weather as the heated air mass at the exterior rises above the cool air mass, creating clouds and storms.

Glycolic acid, which is a monoprotic acid and a constituent in sugar cane, has a pKa of 3.9. A 25.0 mL solution of glycolic acid

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

pH = 8.0

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the moles of NaOH.

$35.8 \times 10^{-3}L.\frac{0.020mol}{L} =7.2\times 10^{-4}mol$

Let's consider the balanced equation.

C₂H₄O₃ + NaOH ⇒ C₂H₃O₃Na + H₂O

The molar ratio C₂H₄O₃: NaOH: C₂H₃O₃Na is 1: 1: 1. So, when 7.2 × 10⁻⁴ moles of NaOH react completely with 7.2 × 10⁻⁴ moles of C₂H₄O₃ they form 7.2 × 10⁻⁴ moles of C₂H₃O₃Na.

The concentration of C₂H₃O₃Na is:

$\frac{7.2\times 10^{-4}mol}{60.8 \times 10^{-3}L} =0.012M$

C₂H₃O₃Na dissociates according to the following equation:

C₂H₃O₃Na(aq) ⇒ C₂H₃O₃⁻(aq) + Na⁺(aq)

C₂H₃O₃⁻ comes from a weak acid so it undergoes basic hydrolisis.

C₂H₃O₃⁻ + H₂O ⇄ C₂H₄O₃ + OH⁻

If we know that pKa for C₂H₄O₃ is 3.9, we can calculate pKb for C₂H₃O₃⁻ using the following expression:

pKa + pKb = 14

pKb = 14 -3.9 = 10.1

10.1 = -log Kb

Kb = 7.9 × 10⁻¹¹

We can calculate [OH⁻] using the following expression:

[OH⁻] = √(Kb.Cb) <em>where Cb is the initial concentration of the base</em>

[OH⁻] = √(7.9 × 10⁻¹¹ × 0.012M) = 9.7 × 10⁻⁷ M

Now, we can calculate pOH and pH.

pOH = -log [OH⁻] = -log (9.7 × 10⁻⁷) = 6.0

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 6.0 = 8.0
