Solid mixture contains MgCl2 and NaCl. When 0.5000 g of this solid is dissolved in enough water to form 1.000 L of solution, the

osmotic pressure at 25°C is observed to be 0.3930 atm. What is the mass percent of MgCl2 in the solid? (Assume ideal behavior for the solution.)

Answer:

83,40 (w/w) %

Explanation:

The osmotic pressure (π) is defined as:

π = iMRT

Where i is Van't Hoff factor (3 for MgCl₂ and 2 for NaCl), M is molarity, R is gas contant (0,082atmL/molK) and T is temperature (298,15K)

iM = π / RT

iM = 0,01607mol/L

It is possible to write:

<em>3x+2y = 0,01607mol/L </em><em>(1)</em>

Where x are moles of MgCl₂ and y moles of NaCl.

<em>-M = moles of each compund because M is molarity (moles/L) and there is 1,000L-</em>

Knowing molar mass of MgCl₂ is 95,2 g/mol and for NaCl is 58,44g/mol:

<em>x×95,211 + y×58,44 = 0,5000g </em><em>(2)</em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

3x+2(0,0086 - 1,629x) = 0,01607mol/L

-0,258x = -0,00113

<em>x = 0,004380 moles of MgCl₂</em>

In grams:

0,004380 moles of MgCl₂×(95,211g/mol) = 0,417g of MgCl₂

Mass percent is:

(0,4170g of MgCl₂/0,5000g of solid) ×100 = <em>83,40 (w/w) %</em>

I hope it helps!

Https://superhumanacademy.com/how-to-memorize-polyatomic-ions-chemical-formulas/

This is how I memorized the ionic formulae. It is a lot to remember, so it does take some time and studying. But this website helped me learn it fast and in a suuuper unique way. I learned it 3 years ago and could still name quite a bit of them. Hope this helps!!!

How is electronegative related to covalent bonding?
serg [7]
Electronegativity is related to covalent bonding because when two atoms have the same electronegativity bond, they will form a pure covalent bond.

6 At STP, which element is a good conductor of electricity?(1) chlorine (3) silver
alexgriva [62]
For an object to conduct electricity it should have free or delocalised electrons that are free to pass the charge and hence take part in conducting electricity.
From the given choices
Chlorine is a halogen existing as a diatomic gas. Iodine too is a halogen and 2 Iodine atoms held together by covalent bond. Cl - Cl bonds and I-I bonds are  covalent bonds. the outer electrons of Cl and I take part in covalent bonds therefore they are fixed and not free to move about. therefore no free electrons to conduct electricity.
Sulfur is a solid that too is held together by covalent bonds so it does not have free electrons to conduct electricity.

Silver is a metal and a general property of metals are their ability to conduct electricity.
metal structure are metal ions tightly packed together. when the metal atoms are tightly packed their valence electrons are removed and delocalised. Positively charged metal ions are embedded in a sea of delocalised electrons.
therefore there are delocalised electrons that can conduct electricity 


answer is 3) silver
