Answer:

Compound B.

Explanation:

The freezing point depression is a colligative property. It depends on the number of particles (moles) present in the solution.

\Delta T_{\text{f}} = K_{\text{f}} b

where b is the molal concentration

b = \dfrac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{kilograms of solvent}}\\\\n = \dfrac{\text{mass}}{\text{molar mass}} = \dfrac{m}{M}

If m is constant (5 g), then

n \propto \dfrac{1}{M}

The compound with the greater molar mass has fewer moles and therefore fewer particles to depress the freezing point.

That must be Compound B, because Compound A has the lower freezing point.

Which substance is a binary acid
Bumek [7]
<span>It is known that acids compounds contains hydrogen and produces hydrogen ion in water. A binary acid however is an acid that have two elements, one of the element has a hydrogen attached to it. Examples of binary acids are hydrogen fluoride (HF), hydrogen bromide (HBr) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). In naming a binary acid, it has two rules; one, as pure compounds and two, as acid solutions. For pure compounds, start with the name ‘hydrogen’ and end the anion name with ‘-ide’. For acidic compounds, start with ‘hydro-‘, end the anion with ‘-ic’ and add ‘acid’.</span>

What occurs during one half-life?
lorasvet [3.4K]
The half-life of a radioactive compound is the time taken for that said isotope to decay or disintegrate so that only half of the initial atoms remain in that compound. During the decay process, the isotope will give off energy and matter, and the way to depict this is indicated by t 1/2.

Which of the following correctly describes the difference (on average) between an electron in a 2s orbital and an electron in a
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

C: electrons is the 3s orbital are higher than those in the 2s orbital

Explanation:

Looking at the options, the correct one is that the electrons in the 3s orbital will possess more energy than those in the 2s orbital. This is because the the 2s orbitals will be filled with electrons first before the 3s orbital.

Also from basics we know that the energy of an orbital increases as the quantum number increases.

Explain how to use the periodic table to deduce the number of protons, neutrons and electrons of an atom of a specific element
Ksju [112]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The periodic table shows the atomic number and mass number of each element.

We know that the atomic number shows;

  1. The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom
  2. The number of electrons in the neutral atom of the element.

So we obtain the number of protons and electrons by looking at the atomic number shown in the periodic table.

We also know that;

Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutrons

Since number of protons = atomic number of the atom

Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number

Hence we obtain the number of protons by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number given in the periodic table.

What amount of moles of sodium chloride is needed to prepare 1.25 L of a salt solution with a concentration of 0.750 mol/L
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Number of moles = 0.94 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of sodium chloride = ?

Volume of sodium chloride = 1.25 L

Concentration of solution = 0.750 mol/L

Solution:

Formula:

Concentration = number of moles/ volume in L

By putting values.

0.750 mol/L = number of mole / 1.25 L

Number of moles =  0.750 mol/L×1.25 L

Number of moles = 0.94 mol
