Answer:

58.44 g/mol

Explanation:

In this problem, make sure to remember that volume is measured in mL, L or any other units of volume. Remember that g represents grams, and grams is a measure of mass.

However, independent of what mass or what volume we take, molar mass is known to be an intensive property. That is, molar mass doesn't depend on any external conditions or any measurements.

Molar mass solely depends on the chemical structure of a compound and is a constant number at any given conditions.

In this problem, we are given sodium chloride, NaCl. In order to find its molar mass, we need to refer to the periodic table, find the atomic masses of Na and Cl and then add them up to have the molar mass of NaCl:

$M_{NaCl} = M_{Na} + M_{Cl} = 22.99 g/mol + 35.453 g/mol = 58.44 g/mol$

Why do molecular compounds have low melting points and low boiling points relative to ionic substances?

kap26 [50]

Answer:

The melting and boiling points of molecular compounds are generally quite low compared to those of ionic compounds. This is because the energy required to disrupt the intermolecular forces between molecules is far less than the energy required to break the ionic bonds in a crystalline ionic compound

What should you do with a rag that has been used to wipe up spilled gasoline? a)Place it in the bilge. b)Hang it over the gunwal

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

A rag contaminated with gasoline is considered a hazard waste. The question seems to be asked to ask for indications of rag disposal on a ship, and if so, the answer is d) Discard it on land BUT with special precautions

Explanation:

Gasoline is a highly flammable organic solvent that is used as fuel. For the above is a dangerous substance. while the ship reaches the mainland, the rag must be stored avoiding contact with environmental agents such as the sun, pets or food. Once in a dry land the rag can be delivery for accurate disposal.
