Answer:

The correct option is: (4) solubility and molecular polarity

Explanation:

Chromatography is an analytical technique which is used for the separation of various components in a given mixture.

In this process, the mixture to be separated is first dissolved in the mobile phase, which carries it through the stationary phase, thus leading to separation of the various components.

This differential separation is the result of the differential migration which is based upon the solubility and polarity of the individual components of of the given mixture.

What are the molality and mole fraction of solute in a 22.3 percent by mass aqueous solution of formic acid (HCOOH)?

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Mole fraction for solute = 0.1, or 10%

Molality = 6.24 mol/kg

Explanation:

22.3% by mass → In 100 g of solution, we have 22.3 g of HCOOH

Mass of solution = 100 g

Mass of solute = 22.3 g

Mass of solvent = 100 g - 22.3g = 77.7 g

Let's convert the mass to moles

22.3 g . 1mol/ 46 g = 0.485 moles

77.7 g. 1mol / 18 g = 4.32 moles

Total moles = 4.32 moles + 0.485 moles = 4.805 moles

Xm for solute = 0.485 / 4.805 = 0.100 → 10%

Molality → mol/ kg → we convert the mass of solvent to kg

77.7 g. 1 kg / 1000g = 0.0777 kg

0.485 mol / 0.0777 kg = 6.24 m

Answer:

Decomposers (either Secondary Consumer or Tertiary Consumer)

Explanation:

Decomposers eat dead materials and break them down into chemical parts. ... They keep the ecosystem free of the bodies of dead animals or carrion. They break down the organic material and recycle it into the ecosystem as nutrients. Vultures, Blowflies, hyenas, crabs, lobsters and eels are examples of scavengers.

Which of the following isoelectronic series is correctly ranked from largest ionic radius to smallest ionic radius? 1. N 3−, O 2

love history [14]

Answer:

Option 1: N⁻³ > O⁻² > F⁻ > Na⁺ > Mg⁺²

Explanation:

Ionic radius is the radius of an atom´s ion in ionic crystal structure. In an ion that lose an electron, to form a cation, the radius of the ion gets smaller, because the repulsion between electrons decrease because fewer electrons are present. Conversely, adding on electron to a neutral atom, to form an anion, causes electron - electron repulsions to increase, so the size of the radius of the ion gets bigger.

Isoelectronic species are ions or elements that have the same number of electrons in their electronic shells but have different overall charges, because of their different atomic numbers.

In a isolelectronic series (same number of electrons), the increase of the positive charge (given by the number of protons in the nucleus), will cause a decrease in radius beacuse the greater electrostatic attraction between the electrons and the nucleus. Consequently, the ion with the greatest nuclear charge will have the smallest ionic radius and the ion with the smallest nulear charge will have the largest ionic radius.

We will use this principle to solve our problem.

In our case, the given ions are:

N⁻³ : Z = 7, e⁻ = 10
O⁻²: Z= 8, e⁻ =10
F⁻: Z = 9, e⁻ = 10
Na⁺: Z= 11, e⁻ = 10
Mg⁺²: Z=12, e⁻ =10

where Z= number of protons, and e⁻ = number of electrons.

Hence the decreasing order of ionic radius is:

N⁻³ > O⁻² > F⁻ > Na⁺ > Mg⁺²

Have a nice day!
