Answer:

a) Xbenzene = 0.283

b) Xtoluene = 0.717

Explanation:

At T = 20°C:

⇒ vapor pressure of benzene (P*b) = 75 torr

⇒ vapor pressure toluene (P*t) = 22 torr

Raoult's law:

  • Pi = Xi.P*i

∴ Pi: partial pressure of i

∴ Xi: mole fraction

∴ P*i: vapor pressure at T

a) solution: benzene (b) + toluene (t)

∴ Psln = 37 torr;   at T=20°C

⇒ Psln = Pb + Pt

∴ Pb = (Xb)*(P*b)

∴ Pt = (Xt)*(P*t)

∴ Xb + Xt = 1

⇒ Psln = 37 torr = (Xb)(75 torr) + (1 - Xb)(22 torr)

⇒ 37 torr - 22 torr = (75 torr)Xb - (22 torr)Xb

⇒ 15 torr = 53 torrXb

⇒ Xb = 15 torr / 53 torr

⇒ Xb = 0.283

b) Xb + Xt = 1

⇒ Xt = 1 - Xb

⇒ Xt = 1 - 0.283

⇒ Xt = 0.717

What is the mass, in grams, of 0.125 L of CO2 at STP? Question 4 options: 2.80 g 181 g 0.246 g 4.11 g
Zolol [24]
1) Use the fact that 1 mol of gas at STP occupies 22.4 liter

=> 1 mol / 22.4 l = x / 0.125 l => x = 0.125 l * 1 mol / 22.4 l = 0.00558 mol

2) Now use the molar mass of the gas

molar mass of CO2 ≈ 44 g / mol

Formula: molar mass = mass in grams / number of moles =>

mass in grams = molar mass * number of moles = 44 g/mol * 0.00558 moles

mass = 0.246 g

Answer: 0.246 g

Please help me with this question!! I’m not sure if they’re the insoluble ions that precipitate with chromate or the soluble one
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

2) Copper (II) Chloride

Explanation:

A precipitate will form if the resulting compound is insoluble in water. For example, a silver nitrate solution (AgNO3) is mixed with a solution of magnesium bromide (MgBr2).

A 7.47 g sample of calcium carbonate [CaCO3 (s)] absorbs 85 J of heat, upon which the temperature of the sample increases from 2
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.82 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Energy absorbs (q) = 85 J

Change in temperature (Δt) = 34.9 - 21 = 13.9°C  

Mass of calcium carbonate = 7.47 g

Find:

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C)

Computation:

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = q / m(Δt)

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 85 / (7.47)(13.9)

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 85 / 103.833

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.8186

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.82 (Approx)
