<u>Answer:</u> The molality of solution is 0.122 m and molar mass of unknown substance is 128.16 g/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_f=iK_fm

where,

\Delta T_f = depression in freezing point = 2.50°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 1 (For non-electrolytes)

K_f = molal freezing point elevation constant = 20.5°C/m

m = molality of solution = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2.50^oC=1\times 20.5^oC/m\times m\\\\m=\frac{2.50}{1\times 20.5}=0.122m

  • To calculate the mass of cyclohexane, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of cyclohexane = 0.779 g/mL

Volume of cyclohexane = 20.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.779g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of cyclohexane}}{20.0mL}\\\\\text{Mass of cyclohexane}=(0.779g/mL\times 20.0mL)=15.58g

  • To calculate the molar mass of substance for given molality, we use the equation:

\text{Molality of solution}=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}

where,

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute = 0.2436 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute = ? g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent (cyclohexane) = 15.58 g

Molality of solution = 0.122 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.122=\frac{0.2436\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times 15.58}\\\\M_{solute}=\frac{0.2436\times 1000}{0.122\times 15.58}=128.16g/mol

Hence, the molality of solution is 0.122 m and molar mass of unknown substance is 128.16 g/mol

Calculate either [ H 3 O + ] or [ OH − ] for each of the solutions.
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer: Solution A : [H_3O^+]=0.300\times 10^{-7}M

Solution B : [OH^-]=0.107\times 10^{-5}M

Solution C : [OH^-]=0.177\times 10^{-10}M

Explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration and pOH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration.

pH=-\log[H_3O^+]

pOH=-log[OH^-}

pH+pOH=14

[H_3O^+][OH^-]=10^{-14}

a. Solution A: [OH^-]=3.33\times 10^{-7}M

[H_3O^+]=\frac{10^{-14}}{3.33\times 10^{-7}}=0.300\times 10^{-7}M

b. Solution B : [H_3O^+]=9.33\times 10^{-9}M

[OH^-]=\frac{10^{-14}}{9.33\times 10^{-9}}=0.107\times 10^{-5}M

c. Solution C : [H_3O^+]=5.65\times 10^{-4}M

[OH^-]=\frac{10^{-14}}{5.65\times 10^{-4}}=0.177\times 10^{-10}M

Which of the following molecules has one lone pair of electrons?
BigorU [14]
You can automatically rule out CH₄ since it has no lone pairs at all around the central atom. Water has 2. Ammonia is the only Lewis structure that contains one lone pair.

Consider the following reaction at constant P. Use the information here to determine the value of ΔSsurr at 355 K. Predict whet
Sloan [31]

The given reaction is as follows:

2NO (g) + O₂ (g) = 2NO₂ (g), ΔH = -114 kJ

It is known that dSsurr = -dHsys / T (Temp = 355 K)

So,  dSsurr = - (-114 × 1000) / 355

dSsurr = +321.12 J/K

Hence, the value of dSsurr is +321.12 J/K

For a reaction to be spontaneous, dG<0,

Also dStotal = dSsys + dSsurr > 0

It is known that dG = dHsys - TdSsys,

Now let us assume,

dG<0

Also, dStotal = dSsys + dSsurr > 0

(-114 × 1000) - (355 × dSsys) <0

355 × dSsys > -114 × 1000

dSsys > -321

dSsys >dSsurr

dSsys + dSsurr > 0

dStotal > 0

Thus, the assumption is correct, and the given reaction is spontaneous. Hence, the final answer is Ssurr = +321 J/K reaction is spontaneous.
