Answer:

(C) CBr₄

Explanation:

The compound CCl₄ has one carbon atom (group 14) and 4 chlorine atoms (halogens). On the basis of the periodic properties, other 4 halogens bonded to carbon would also present nonflammable properties like those of CCl₄ -and thus they could be used as a fire-resistant chemical-, that's why the answer is C) CBr₄

Explain how heat is exchanged through potential and kinetic energy
padilas [110]

Answer:

Kinetic And Potential Energy Working Together All forms of kinetic energy are the result of a previous state of potential energy. For example, the stored chemical potential energy of a battery converts to electrical kinetic energy to transport electricity to a light bulb, which radiates thermal kinetic energy.

the change in the boiling point is given as,

dTbp =2.30°c

elevation constant for the solvent is given by,

Making the simplistic assumption that the dissolved NaCl(s) does not affect the volume of the solvent water, determine the const
shtirl [24]

Answer:

  • m = 1,000/58.5
  • b = - 1,000 / 58.5

1) Variables

  • molarity: M
  • density of the solution: d
  • moles of NaCl: n₁
  • mass of NaCl: m₁
  • molar mass of NaCl: MM₁
  • total volume in liters: Vt
  • Volume of water in mililiters: V₂
  • mass of water: m₂

2) Density of the solution: mass in grams / volume in mililiters

  • d = [m₁ + m₂] / (1000Vt)

3) Mass of NaCl: m₁

    Number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

    ⇒ mass in grams = number of moles × molar mass

        m₁ = n₁ × MM₁


4) Number of moles of NaCl: n₁

   Molarity = number of moles / Volume of solution in liters

   M = n₁ / Vt

   ⇒ n₁ = M × Vt


5) Substitue in the equation of m₁:

   m₁ = M × Vt × MM₁


6) Substitute in the equation of density:

    d = [M × Vt × MM₁ + m₂] / (1000Vt)


7) Simplify and solve for M

  • d = M × Vt × MM₁ / (1000Vt) + m₂/ (1000Vt)
  • d = M × MM₁ / (1000) + m₂/ (1000Vt)

Making the simplistic assumption that the dissolved NaCl(s) does not affect the volume of the solvent water means 1000Vt = V₂  

  • d = M × MM₁ / (1000) + m₂/ V₂

        m₂/ V₂ is the density of water: 1.00 g/mL

  • d = M × MM₁ / (1000) + 1.00 g/mL
  • M × MM₁ / (1000) = d - 1.00 g/mL
  • M = [1,000/MM₁] d - 1,000/ MM₁

8) Substituting MM₁ = 58.5 g/mol

  • M = [1,000/58.5] d - [1,000/ 58.5]

Comparing with the equation Molarity = m×density + b, you obtain:

  • m = 1,000/58.5
  • b = - 1,000/58.5
