<u>Answer:</u> The vapor pressure of the solution is 43.55 mmHg

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}      .....(1)

  • <u>For water:</u>

Given mass of water = 35.0 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of water}=\frac{35.0g}{18g/mol}=1.944mol

  • <u>For ethyl alcohol:</u>

Given mass of ethyl alcohol = 100.0 g

Molar mass of ethyl alcohol = 46 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of ethyl alcohol}=\frac{100.0g}{46g/mol}=2.174mol

Total moles of solution = [1.944 = 2.174] moles = 4.118 moles

  • Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}

<u>For water:</u>

\chi_{\text{water}}=\frac{n_{\text{water}}}{n_{\text{water}}+n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}

\chi_{water}=\frac{1.944}{4.118}=0.472

<u>For ethyl alcohol:</u>

\chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}=\frac{n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}{n_{\text{water}}+n_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}}

\chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}=\frac{2.174}{4.118}=0.528

Dalton's law of partial pressure states that the total pressure of the system is equal to the sum of partial pressure of each component present in it.

To calculate the vapor pressure of the solution, we use the law given by Dalton, which is:

P_T=\sum_{i=1}^n (p_i\times \chi_i)

Or,

P_T=[(p_{\text{water}}\times \chi_{\text{water}})+(p_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}\times \chi_{\text{ethyl alcohol}}

We are given:

Vapor pressure of water = 23.8 mmHg

Vapor pressure of ethyl alcohol = 61.2 mmHg

Putting values in above equation, we get:

p_T=[(23.8\times 0.472)+(61.2\times 0.528)]\\\\p_T=43.55mmHg

Hence, the vapor pressure of the solution is 43.55 mmHg

Which of the following statements is FALSE?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Option C is false statement. The half life of a second order reaction is not dependent on concentration.

Explanation:

Half life of a reaction is defined as the amount of time which is required for a reactant concentration reduced by half comparison to its initial concentration.

Half life of a second order reaction is depend on the initial concentration of a reaction, in contrast to 1st order reaction.

Nuetrik [128]

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

<em>Step 1</em>. Write the <em>condensed structural  formula</em> for 2,3-dimethylbutane.

(CH_3)_2CHCH(CH_3)_2

<em>Step 2</em>. Write the <em>molecular formula</em>.

C_6H_14

<em>Step 3</em>. Write the <em>unbalanced chemical equation</em>.

C_6H_14 + O_2 → CO_2 + H_2O

<em>Step 4</em>. Pick the <em>most complicated-looking formula</em> (C_6H_14) and balance its atoms (C and H).

<em>1</em>C_6H_14 + O_2 → <em>6</em>CO_2 + <em>7</em>H_2O

<em>Step 5</em>. Balance the <em>remaining atoms</em> (O).

1C_6H_14 + (<em>19/2</em>)O_2 → 6CO_2 + 7H_2O

tangare [24]

Answer:

When the hammer is in the sun, heat flows by radiation

When you pick up the hammer, heat flows by conduction

Explanation:

As the hammer lies in the sun, heat is transferred to the hammer by radiation. Heat energy reaches the earth from the sun by radiation. Radiation is a mode of beat transfer in which heat is transferred without a material medium.

When you pick up the hammer, heat flows to your hand by conduction because your body is a conductor of heat.

Suppose NAD is unavailable because NADH cannot be oxidized due to a mutation in the NADH dehydrogenase (Complex I). If FAD could
Dovator [93]

Answer:

FAD substitution will produce 28 ATP instead of 36.

Explanation:

NAD and FAD are coenzymes involved in reversible oxidation and reduction reactions. These compounds are also known as electron carriers. However NADH produce 3 electrons in electron transport chain and FADH2 produce 2 electron beacuase it transfer the electrons to second complex in ETC.

Normal prduction of ATP from glucose;

2 cytoplasmic NADH formed in glycolysis         Each yields 2 ATP   +4

2 NADH formed in the oxidation of pyruvate Each yields 3 ATP         +6

2 FADH2 formed in the citric acid cycle         Each yields 2 ATP         +4

6 NADH formed in the citric acid cycle             Each yields 3 ATP         +18

2 ATP from glycolysis                                                                                   +2  

2 ATP from citric acid cycle                                                                          +2                            

                                                                    Net yield ATP +36

C6H12O6 + 6 CO2 + 36 ADP + 36 Pi ⇒6 CO2 + 6 H2O + 36 ATP

If we replace the NAD with FAD the total ATP production would be.

2 cytoplasmic FADH2 formed in glycolysis          Each yields 2 ATP            +4

2 FADH2 formed in the oxidation of pyruvate   Each yields 3 ATP    +4

2 FADH2 formed in the citric acid cycle            Each yields 2 ATP    +4

6 FADH2 formed in the citric acid cycle                  Each yields 2 ATP   +12

2 ATP from glycolysis                                                                                    

+2

2 ATP from citric acid cycle                                                                            +2

                                                                  <u>Net yield ATP +28</u>

C6H12O6 + 6 CO2 + 28ADP + 28 Pi ⇒6 CO2 + 6 H2O + 28 ATP
