Calculate the boiling temperature of a 0.50 M solution of sucrose. Assume that the concentration is 0.50 m.

Ronch [10]

There is one missing point in the question.

The formula to find an increase in boiling Temperature is :

ΔT = kb x M

ΔT = is the increase in boiling Temperature
Kb = Boiling point constant of the Solvent
M = Molarity

You did not provide the Kb. If you have it, you just have to insert it to the formula to find the ΔT.

And assuming that the other solution is water, you just have to add it up with 100 Celcius

Why is the greenhouse effect important to life on earth

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Because Greenhouse gases let the sun's light shine onto the Earth's surface, but they trap the heat that reflects back up into the atmosphere. And this way, they act like the glass walls of a greenhouse. This greenhouse effect also keeps the Earth warm enough to sustain life.

Explain the difference between percent abundance and relative abundance.

larisa86 [58]

Relative abundance - comparison between the isotopes Percent abundance -
comparing the totals.
relative abundance:the number of organisms of a particular kind as a percentage of the total number of organisms of a given area or community; the number of birds of a particular species as a percentage of the total bird population of a given area percent:figured or expressed on the basis of a rate or proportion per hundred (used in combination with a number in expressing rates of interest, proportions, etc.

Determine the empirical formulas for compounds with the following percent compositions:

Elis [28]

Answer:

For a: The empirical formula of the compound is $P_2O_5$

For b: The empirical formula of the compound is $KH_2PO_4$

Explanation:

For a:

We are given:

Percentage of P = 43.6 %

Percentage of O = 56.4 %

Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of P = 43.6 g

Mass of O = 56.4 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Phosphorus = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Phosphorus}}{\text{Molar mass of Phosphorus}}=\frac{43.6g}{31g/mole}=1.406moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{56.4g}{16g/mole}=3.525moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 1.406 moles.

For Phosphorus = $\frac{1.406}{1.406}=1$

For Oxygen = $\frac{3.525}{1.406}=2.5$

Converting the moles in whole number ratio by multiplying it by '2', we get:

For Phosphorus = $1\times 2=2$

For Oxygen = $2.5\times 2=5$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of P : O = 2 : 5

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $P_2O_5$

For b:

We are given:

Percentage of K = 28.7 %

Percentage of H = 1.5 %

Percentage of P = 22.8 %

Percentage of O = 56.4 %

Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of K = 28.7 g

Mass of H = 1.5 g

Mass of P = 43.6 g

Mass of O = 56.4 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Potassium = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Potassium}}{\text{Molar mass of Potassium}}=\frac{28.7g}{39g/mole}=0.736moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of hydrogen}}=\frac{1.5g}{1g/mole}=1.5moles$

Moles of Phosphorus = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Phosphorus}}{\text{Molar mass of Phosphorus}}=\frac{22.8g}{31g/mole}=0.735moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{47g}{16g/mole}=2.9375moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.735 moles.

For Potassium = $\frac{0.736}{0.735}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{1.5}{0.735}=2.04\approx 2$

For Phosphorus = $\frac{0.735}{0.735}=1$

For Oxygen = $\frac{2.9375}{0.735}=3.99\approx 4$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of K : H : P : O = 1 : 2 : 1 : 4

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $KH_2PO_4$
