Erin believes she has devised a way to make easy measurements of liquids in a graduated cylinder. She takes the volume reading f

rom the top of the meniscus and a volume reading from the very bottom of the meniscus, and then she averages these readings. Explain why this method is flawed.

Answer:

Explanation:

The best way to measure the volume of a liquid in a graduated cylinder, read the level at the bottom or the meniscus.

water molecules tends to creeps up on the sides of the cylinder. if you take the reading from the top then, you are making a mistake, because you are reading water creep on the side of the cylinder. The best and accurate way to measure, is to read the bottom of the meniscus.

Effectus [21]

Answer:

746 moles of H2O are been produced from 373 moles of Al.

Explanation:

For every 3 moles of aluminum, you get 6 moles of H2O (double). Therefore, every 373 moles of Al, you will get double as well, that is 746 m.

7. When solid carbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide gas, woul the triangle H value be on the reactant or produ
garik1379 [7]

When solid carbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide gas. the deltaH (enthalpy change ) value is negative .DeltaH would be on the product side of the equation.

<h3>What is enthalpy change? </h3>

In a thermodynamic system, energy is measured by enthalpy. Enthalpy is a measure of a system's overall heat content and is equal to the system's internal energy plus the sum of its volume and pressure.

Knowing whether q is endothermic or exothermic allows one to characterise the relationship between q and H. An endothermic reaction is one that absorbs heat and demonstrates that heat from the environment is used in the reaction, hence q>0 (positive). For the aforementioned equation, under constant pressure and temperature, if q is positive, then H will also be positive. In a similar manner, heat is transferred to the environment when it is released during an exothermic reaction. Thus, q=0 (negative). Therefore, if q is negative, H will also be negative.

Given the following Fischer projection: Fischer projection for an entantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal with the bromine
harina [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Stereoisomers are two or more atoms that  have the same bonding order of atoms but there is a difference  spatial arrangement of  the  atoms in space.

A plane of symmetry divides a molecule into two equal halves.

A chiral stereoisomer are not superimposed on a mirror image , Hence they do not posses a plane of symmetry.

As a result to that. these non-superimposable mirror images are said to be Enantiomers.

However, a Fischer Projection emanates from a two - dimensional figure which is used for presenting a three - dimensional organic molecules.

From the given question;

Fischer projection for an enantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal with the bromine oriented horizontally to the left and the hydroxide group oriented horizontally to the right.

we can sketch the way the enantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal can  be seen like the one shown below:

              CH₂OH

                   |

                   |

                   |

Br -------------|----------------OH

                   |

                   |

                   |

                 CHO

The objective of this question is to drawn the perspective formula of the molecule.

So , from the attached file below; we can see the perspective formula of the molecule in a well structured 3-D format.

Does adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent, a lesser extent, or a greater e
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water <em><u>to the same extent</u></em>  by adding 1 mol of C_06H_{12}O_6 to 1 kg of water.

Explanation:

1) Moles of NaCl ,n_1=1 mol

Mass of water = m= 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol

Vapor pressure of the solution = p

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = p_o=17.5 Torr

Mole fraction of solute(NaCl)= \chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}

p=17.19 Torr

The vapor pressure for the NaCl solution at 17.19 Torr.

2) Moles of sucrose ,n_1=1mol

Mass of water = m  = 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol

Vapor pressure of the solution = p'

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = p_o=17.5 Torr

Mole fraction of solute ( glucose)= \chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}

\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}

p'=17.19 Torr

The vapor pressure for the glucose solution at 17.19 Torr.

p = p' = 17.19 Torr

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent  by adding 1 mol of C_06H_{12}O_6 to 1 kg of water.
