The freezing point depression is calculated through the equation,
                                    ΔT = (kf)  x m 
where ΔT is the difference in temperature, kf is the freezing point depression constant (1.86°C/m), and m is the molality. Substituting the known values,
                                   5.88 = (1.86)(m)
m is equal to 3.16m

Recall that molality is calculated through the equation,
                                  molality = number of mols / kg of solvent
                                       number of mols = (3.16)(1.25) = 3.95 moles
Then, we multiply the calculated amount in moles with the molar mass of ethylene glycol and the answer would be 244.9 g.

if a gas sample in a balloon occupies 1.5 L at atmospheric pressure, what would be the pressure (in mmHg) if the volume was redu
Nata [24]

Answer:

1425 mmHg.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial volume (V1) = 1.5 L

Initial pressure (P1) = 1 atm

Final volume (V2) = 0.8 L

Final pressure (P2) =?

Next, we shall determine the final pressure of the gas by using the Boyle's law equation as follow:

P1V1 = P2V2

1 × 1.5 = P2 × 0.8

1.5 = P2 × 0.8

Divide both side by 0.8

P2 = 1.5/0.8

P2 = 1.875 atm

Finally, we shall convert 1.875 atm to mmHg.

This can be obtained as follow:

1 atm = 760 mmHg

Therefore,

1.875 atm = 1.875 × 760 = 1425 mmHg.

Therefore, the new pressure of the gas is 1425 mmHg.

A) Compute the repeat unit molecular weight of polystyrene. B) Compute the number-average molecular weight for a polystyrene for
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Polystrene, the molecular formula for the repeat unit = C_8H_8;

and the atomic weights of Carbon C = 12.01 g/mol

For Hydrogen, it is 1.01 g/mol

Hence, the repeat unit molecular weight is:

m = 8 (12.01 g/mol)+8(1.01 g/mol)

m = 96.08 g/mol + 8.08 g/mol

m = 104.16 g/mol

The degree of polymerization = no-average molecular weight/repeat unit molecular weight.

Mathematically;

DP = \dfrac{\overline M_n}{m}

\overline M_n= DP \times m

\overline M_n= 25000 \times 104.16 \ g/mol

\overline M_n= 2604000  \ g/mol

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coeffici
Brut [27]

<u>Question:</u>

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K

<u>Answer:</u>

The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

              E=E_{0}-0.0514 \mathrm{V} \ln \gamma

As we know that E_{0} = 0.22 V and E = 0.342 V, the equation will become

             0.342 V+0.0514 V \ln (0.124)=0.22 V-0.0514 V \ln \gamma

             0.342 V-0.222 V=-0.0514 V(\ln \gamma+\ln 0.124)

             0.12 \mathrm{V}=-0.0514 \mathrm{V}(\ln \gamma+\ln 0.124)

             \frac{0.12}{0.0514}=-\ln (0.124 \gamma)

             -2.3346=\ln (0.124 \gamma)

             e^{-2.3346}=0.124 \gamma

             0.0968=0.124 \gamma

             \gamma=\frac{0.0968}{0.124}=0.78

So, the mean activity coefficient is 0.78.

dsp73

Chemical bonds are formed or broken. This is true of a chemical change, but not a physical change. A physical change is usually something that you can see, such as changing of shape or form or staying the same.  However, because you cannot visibly see chemical bonds being formed or broken and because this would affect the chemical composition, it is not a physical change.
