If you have a 1.0 m aqueous solution of NaCl, by how much will it increase the water’s boiling point, if KB = 0.512 °C/m? In oth
fgiga [73]

<u>Answer:</u> The elevation in boiling point is 1.024°C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_b=ik_b\times m

where,

i = Van't Hoff factor = 2 (for NaCl)

\Delta T_b = change in boiling point  = ?

k_b = boiling point constant = 0.512^oC/m

m = molality = 1.0 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta Tb=2\times 0.512^oC/m\times 1.0m\\\\\Delta Tb=1.024^oC

Hence, the elevation in boiling point is 1.024°C.

How does a compass, which contains a magnetized needle, tell direction?
slavikrds [6]
<h2>Answer::</h2>

A compass works by detecting and responding to the Earth's natural magnetic fields. The Earth has an iron core that is part liquid and part solid crystal, due to gravitational pressure. It is believed that movement in the liquid outer core is what produces the Earth's magnetic field.','.

ALWAYS use significant figure rules. Remember that these rules apply to all numbers that are measurements. A person walks along
Elza [17]
To find the total number of miles traveled by a person, we add the distance that he has traveled: 3.0 + 5.00 + 4.000. 

Now, to find the accurate number of significant figures when adding measurements, the basic rule for addition is to use the least number of decimal places when reporting the result.

Now, since 3.0 has the least number of decimal places, we report the sum with 1 decimal place and have 12.0 miles as the total distance traveled by the person to reach his destination.

Answer: 12.0 miles
