Two unknown molecular compounds were being studied. A solution containing 5.00 g of compound A in 100. g of water froze at a low

er temperature than a solution containing 5.00 g of compound B in 100. g of water. Which compound has the greater molar mass? Explain how you arrived at your answer.

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.

A student determines the molar mass of acetone, CH3COCH3, by the method used in this experiment. She found that the equilibrium
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

(a). 4°C, (b). 2.4M, (c). 11.1 g, (d). 89.01 g, (e). 139.2 g and (f). 58 g/mol.

Explanation:

Without mincing words let's dive straight into the solution to the question.

(a). The freezing point depression can be Determine by subtracting the value of the initial temperature from the final temperature. Therefore;

The freezing point depression = [ 1 - (-3)]° C = 4°C.

(b). The molality can be Determine by using the formula below;

Molality = the number of moles found in the solute/ solvent's weight(kg).

Molality = ( 11.1 / 58) × (1000)/ ( 90.4 - 11.1) = 2.4 M.

(c). The mass of acetone that was in the decanted solution = 11.1 g.

(d). The mass of water that was in the decanted solution = 89.01 g.

(e). 2.4 = x/ 58 × (1000/1000).

x = 2.4 × 58 = 139.2 g.

(f). The molar mass of acetone = (12) + (1 × 3) + 12 + 16 + 12 + (1 x 3) = 58 g/mol.

What is the maximum volume of a 0.788 M CaCl2 solution that can be prepared using 85.3 g CaCl2?
Law Incorporation [45]
The answer is 0.975 L

Volume = mol/Molarity

We have molarity (0.788 M) and we need mol and volume. Let's first calculate number of moles of CaCl2 in 85.3 g:

Molar mass of CaCl2 is sum of atomic masses of Ca and Cl:
Mr(CaCl2) = Ar(Ca) + 2Ar(Cl) = 40 + 2 * 35.45 = 40 + 70.9 = 110.9 g/mol

So, if 110.9 g are in 1 mol, 85.3 g will be in x mol:
110.9 g : 1 mole = 85.3 g : x
x = 85.3 g * 1 mole / 110.9
x = 0.769 moles

Now, calculate the volume:
V = 0.769/0.788
V = 0.975 L

Review the map that shows earthquake zones as yellow lines and active volcanoes as red dots. what pattern can you determine abou
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

A map that shows the location of volcanoes is called a Geologic Map. This kind of map contains information about the geological history and condition of volcanic sites.

<h3>What do Geologic Maps indicate?</h3>

Geologic maps indicate the following:

  • the location of volcanos
  • age of rock deposits found near the volcano
  • which volcanoes are active and those that aren't
  • types of rocks at these sites
  • faults fracture etc.

Note that the map specific to the question is unavailable hence the general response.

Do iron (III) chloride, potassium iodide, or potassium chloride catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide?
alexira [117]
Iron (III) chloride catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide because the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is usually inhibited by the presence of ions such as phosphate ions in solution. The iron ions that would result from the dissolution of iron (III) chloride have a charge of 3+ and would bond with the -3 charged phosphate ions, creating a non-charged FePO4 molecule and removing the decomposition inhibitor from the solution. Potassium iodide and potassium chloride both are more strongly bonded than a transition metal compound and would lack the necessary charged iron ion when added to hydrogen peroxide.
