Identify the solute with the highest van't Hoff factor. And how do you determine which one is highest?

german

Answer : The correct option is, (A) $AlCl_3$

Explanation :

Van't Hoff factor : It is defined as the ratio of the experimental value of the colligative property to the calculated value of the colligative property.

We can determine the van't Hoff factor by the association and dissociation of the compound.

(A) $AlCl_3$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give aluminum ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of $AlCl_3$ will be,

$AlCl_3\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}$ = 1 + 3 = 4

(B) $KI$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give potassium ion and iodide ion.

The dissociation of $KI$ will be,

$KI\rightarrow K^{+}+I^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $K^{+}+I^{-}$ = 1 + 1 = 2

(C) $CaCl_2$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give calcium ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of $CaCl_2$ will be,

$CaCl_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}$ = 1 + 2 = 3

(D) $MgSO_4$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give magnesium ion and sulfate ion.

The dissociation of $MgSO_4$ will be,

$MgSO_4\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$ = 1 + 1 = 2

(E) Non-electrolyte

The dissociation non-electrolyte is not possible. So, the Van't Hoff factor will always be, 1.

Hence, the highest van't Hoff factor of solute is, $AlCl_3$

Frayer model for matter

givi [52]

A model showing that gases are made from the matter of particles that are too small to see and are moving freely around in space can explain many observations.

Sea anemones are predatory invertebrates with stinging tentacles that can paralyze many sea animals. The clownfish is immune to

ANTONII [103]

Nature is full of wonders and one of the most impressive of them are symbiotic relationships (mutually beneficial relationships). Despite the competition in the kingdom of life, here 2 actors help each other to gain more than they could individually. Let's look at the answers. The sea anemone can't possibly fertilize the clownfish's eggs, only another clownfish can do that. The 4th choice might be correct but it does not help the clownfish; The 5th choice is also correct but it is not related to the offspring of the clownfish. For the 3rd choice, we have that the anemone sometimes provides leftovers for the fish, but the fish' eggs cannot use this source of nutrients. However, we know that the 1st assertion holds; the poisonous tentacles of the sea anemone protect the eggs from potential predators.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is <em>D) Niels Bohr</em>

Explanation:

Bohr proposed a new atomic model, whereby he explains that electrons rotate around the nucleus at well-defined levels, describing circular orbits. Each orbit was called the energy level (it is called the main quantum number n, going from numbers 1 to 7). To make his model, Bohr studied the Hydrogen atom (it has a proton in its nucleus and an electron rotating around it).
