Answer: Concentration of [H^+]\&[OH^-] are equal in pure water.

Explanation:

H_2O\rightleftharpoons H^++OH^-

K_{eq}=\frac{[H^+][OH^-]}{[H_2O]}

K_w=K_{eq}[H_2O]=[H^+][OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-14}

Also, pure water has neutral with 7 pH value ,

pH=7=-\log[H^+]

[H^+]=1\times 10^{-7}mol/L

So, theK_w of pure water is given

K_w=[H^+][OH^-]=1\times 10^{-7}\times[OH^-]= 1\times 10^{-14}

[OH^-]=1\times 10^{-7}mol/L

Hence, Concentration of [H^+]\&[OH^-]are equal in pure water

Calculate the molality of isoborneol in the product if, a) the melting point of pure camphor is 179°C and the melting point take
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The molality of isoborneol in camphor is 0.53 mol/kg.

Explanation:

Melting point of pure camphor= T =179°C

Melting point of sample = T_f = 165°C

Depression in freezing point = \Delta T_f=?

\Delta T_f=T- T_f=179^oC-165^oC=14^oC

Depression in freezing point  is also given by formula:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

K_f = The freezing point depression constant

m = molality of the sample

i = van't Hoff factor

We have: K_f = 40°C kg/mol

i = 1 (  organic compounds)

\Delta T_f=14^oC

14^oC=1\times 40^oC kg/mol\times m

m=\frac{14^oC}{1\times 40^oC kg/mol}=0.35 mol/kg

The molality of isoborneol in camphor is 0.53 mol/kg.
