Answer : The correct option is, (A) AlCl_3

Explanation :

Van't Hoff factor : It is defined as the ratio of the experimental value of the colligative property to the calculated value of the colligative property.

We can determine the van't Hoff factor by the association and dissociation of the compound.

(A) AlCl_3

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give aluminum ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of AlCl_3 will be,

AlCl_3\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-} = 1 + 3 = 4

(B) KI

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give potassium ion and iodide ion.

The dissociation of KI will be,

KI\rightarrow K^{+}+I^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = K^{+}+I^{-} = 1 + 1 = 2

(C) CaCl_2

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give calcium ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of CaCl_2 will be,

CaCl_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-} = 1 + 2 = 3

(D) MgSO_4

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give magnesium ion and sulfate ion.

The dissociation of MgSO_4 will be,

MgSO_4\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-} = 1 + 1 = 2

(E) Non-electrolyte

The dissociation non-electrolyte is not possible. So, the Van't Hoff factor will always be, 1.

Hence, the highest van't Hoff factor of solute is, AlCl_3

Use Boyle’s law to complete the following:
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 0.25 l

Explanation:

Data

P1 = 1 atm

V1 = 0.5 l

P2 =2 atm

V2 = ?

T = constant

Formula

          V1P1 = V2P2

Clear V2 from the formula

            V2 = V1P1/P2

Substitution

            V2 = (0.5)(1)/2  substitution

                  = 0.25 l       result

A sample of a pure element has a mass of 45.6g and contains 4.19 x 10 23 atoms. Identify the element.
max2010maxim [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

    ZINC

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<em>To identify the element based on the informartion given, we have to find the molar mass since this mass is unique to each element.</em>

            Molar mass = mass ÷ moles

<em>We already know the mass based on the question, as such we now need to find the # of moles.</em>

           Since 1 mole contains 6.02214 × 10²³ atoms

      then let  x moles contain 4.19 × 10²³ atoms <em>(given in the question)</em>

<em>     </em><em> </em>   ⇒   x =  (4.19 × 10²³ atoms  ×  1 mol) ÷ 6.02214 × 10²³ atoms

              x  =  0.69577 mol

<em>Now that we have the moles we can substitute it into the molar mass equation and solve for the molar mass.</em>

           ⇒ molar mass = 45.6 g ÷ 0.69577 mol

           ⇒ molar mass ≈  65.54 g/mol

                    This molar mass is closest to that of ZINC.
