Answer:

The total vapor pressure is 84.29 mmHg

Explanation:

Step 1:  Data given

Solution = 40.00 (v/v) % benzene in CCl4

Temperature = 20.00 °C

The vapor pressure of pure benzene at 20.00 °C = 74.61 mmHg

Density of benzene is 0.87865 g/cm3

The vapor pressure of pure carbon tetrachloride is 91.32 mmHg

We suppose the total volume = 100 mL

Step 2: Calculate volume benzene and CCl4

40 % benzene = 40 mL

60 % mL CCl4 = 60 mL

Step 3: Calculate mass benzene

Mass = density * volume

Mass of benzene = 40.00 mL *  0.87865 g/mL = 35.146 g

Step 4: Calculate moles of benzene

Moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles of benzene  = 35.146 grams / 78 g/mol  = 0.45059 mol

Step 5: Calculate mass of CCl4

Mass of CCl4 = 60 mL * 1.5940 g/mL = 95.64 g

Step 6: Calculate moles CCl4

Number of moles of CCl4 = 95.64 grams / 154g/mol = 0.62104 mol

Step 7: Calculate total number of moles

Total number of moles = moles benzene + moles CCl4

0.45059 moles + 0.62104 moles = 1.07163 mol

Step 8: Calculate mole fraction benzene and CCl4

Mole fraction = moles benzene / total moles

Mole fraction of benzene = 0.45059 / 1.07163 = 0.4205

Mole fraction of CCl4 = 0.62104 / 1.07163 = 0.5795

Step 9: Calculate partial pressure

Partial pressure of benzene = 0.4205 * 74.61 = 31.37 mmHg

Partial pressure of CCl4      = 0.5795 * 91.32 = 52.92 mmHg

Total vapor pressure = 31.37 + 52.92 = 84.29 mmHg

The total vapor pressure is 84.29 mmHg

The percent by mass of copper in CuBr2 is Use mc004-1.jpg. 28.45%. 44.30%. 63.55%. 71.55%.
Greeley [361]
First, we must find the total mass of CuBr₂:
Mass = 64 + 2 x 80
Mass = 224

Percentage mass of copper = mass of copper x 100 / total mass
Percentage mass of copper = (64 / 224) x 100
Percentage mass of copper = 28.45%

A. The structure of [NO3]- is either trigonal planar or trigonal pyramidal draw both possible structures and determine the point
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Look at the picture.

Explanation:

For planar anion point group is D3h. For trigonal piramidal point group is C3v.

On picture 2 and 3 are the tables for each point group. Irreducible representations its the horizontal rows in tables. Where you see x, y and z it's translation of p-orbitals. Where you see R - it's rotations.

Can someone help me on number 7
Artist 52 [7]

The answer is "C" because all isotopes have a different mass number. The number of protons does not change. The mass of electrons is negligible. Thus, the number of neutrons changes.
