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!

joja [24]

Answer:

magnesium metal melts = physical change

magnesium metal ignites = chemical change

Explanation:

<em>Physical changes</em> are those in which the identity of the subtance <u>remains unaltered</u>. No new compounds are formed. They involve generally changes in <u>agreggation states of matter</u>: solid, liquid or gas. The first experiment, in which magnesium metal melts is a physical change because it only changes the state of matter, from solid to liquid, but it is still magnesium metal.

Conversely, <em>chemical changes</em> involve atoms combinations to form new compounds. The second experiment, in which magnesium metal ignites, is a chemical change. After the change, magnesium metal is no longer the metal but a metal oxide.
