Answer:

Component P, because being supported by ample evidence is a characteristic of a theory.

Explanation:

Hypothesis do not explain phenomenon they are just educated guesses that can be put into work to see if they are true of false.

Scientific theory on other hand, is widely accepted and supported by large amount of evidence and useful for explaining scientific phenomenon.

For which of the following aqueous solutions would one expect to have the largest van’t Hoff factor (i)? a. 0.050 m NaCl b. 0.50
ira [324]

Answer:

The van't hoff factor of 0.500m K₂SO₄ will be highest.

Explanation:

Van't Hoff factor was introduced for better understanding of colligative property of a solution.

By definition it is the ratio of actual number of particles or ions or associated molecules formed when a solute is dissolved to the number of particles expected from the mass dissolved.

a) For NaCl the van't Hoff factor is 2

b) For K₂SO₄ the van't Hoff factor is 3 [it will dissociate to give three ions one sulfate ion and two potassium ions]

Out of 0.500m and 0.050m K₂SO₄, the van't hoff factor of 0.500m K₂SO₄ will be more.

c) The van't Hoff factor for glucose is one as it is a non electrolyte and will not dissociate.

To prepare 250.0 mL of 2.5 M KCl you will need to dilute _____ mL of 8.0 M KCl solution to a volume of 250.0 mL.
Radda [10]

Answer:

78.125ml

Explanation:

Number of moles in 250ml of 2.5M KCl is (250÷1000)litres×2.5M so we divide these moles by 8M. The answer gotten will be in litres so multiply by 1000 to get it in ml

What is the empirical formula of a compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen in the ratio 14:42:84?
Alexxandr [17]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

D. CH₃O₆

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • We are given the ratio of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in a compound as 14: 42 : 84

We are supposed to determine the empirical formula of the compound;

  • We need to know what is an empirical formula;
  • An empirical formula of a compound is a formula that shows the simplest whole number ratio of elements in a compound.

In this case;

The ratio of C : H : O is 14 : 42 : 84

  • Note, this is not the simplest ratio.

But we can simplify further to get the simplest whole number ratio;

  • Therefore, 14 : 42 : 84  is equal to 1 : 3 : 6
  • Thus, the simplest whole number ratio of C : H : O in the compound is 1 : 3 : 6
  • Therefore, the empirical formula of the compound is CH₃O₆
