Answer:

The solution is composed by 37.5 g of water and 28.5 g of methanol.

Explanation:

Total mass = 66 g

Mole fraction methanol: 0.3

Sum of mole fraction = 1

Therefore, mole fraction of water = 0.7

Let's find out the mass of each component by this two equations:

Methanol mass + Water mass = 66 g

Water mass = 66g - Methanol mass

Methanol mass = 66g - water mass

water mass / 18 g/mol = moles of water

methanol mass / 32 g/mol = moles of methanol

moles of water / total moles = 0.7

moles of methanol / total moles = 0.3

water mass / 18 g/mol / (water mass / 18 g/mol) + (methanol mass / 32 g/mol)  = 0.7 ; let's replace methanol mass, as (66 - water mass)

water mass / 18 g/mol / (water mass / 18 g/mol) + (66 - water mass / 32 g/mol)  = 0.7 → The unknown is water mass (X)

X / 18  / ( (X / 18)  + ((66-X) / 32)) = 0.7

(X / 18)  + ((66-X) / 32) = (16X + 594 - 9X)/288

X / 18  /  (16X + 594 - 9X)/288 = 0.7

X/18 = 0.7 . ( (7X + 594 ) / 288)

X / 18 = 7/2880 ( 7X + 594)

X = 7/2880 ( 7X + 594) 18

X = 7/160 (7X + 594)

X = 49/160X + 2079/80

X - 49/160X = 2079/80

111/160X = 2079/80

X = 2079/80 . 160/111 = 37.5 g → mass of water

Therefore, mass of methanol → 66 g - 37.4 g = 28.5 g

What does Einstein’s theory of relativity expalain?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. How gravity interacts with planets

Explanation:

Einstein's theory of relativity formulated in 1915 introduces the following concepts:

- Formula E = mc2 (relationship between energy, mass, speed of light)

- How nuclear energy is produced

-After seeing a solar eclipse, gravity is interpreted geometrically (which is an effect of distortion)

-Relative time

What is the vapor pressure of CS2CS2 in mmHgmmHg at 26.5 ∘C∘C? Carbon disulfide, CS2CS2, has PvapPvap = 100 mmHgmmHg at −−5.1 ∘C
Digiron [165]

Answer: 26.5 mm Hg

Explanation:

The vapor pressure is determined by Clausius Clapeyron equation:

ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2})

where,

P_1= initial pressure at 26.5^oC = ?

P_2 = final pressure at -5.1^oC = 100 mm Hg

= enthalpy of vaporisation = 28.0 kJ/mol =28000 J/mol

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole.K

T_1= initial temperature = 26.5^oC=273+26.5=299.5K

T_2 = final temperature =-5.1^oC=273+(-5.1)=267.9K

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

\log (\frac{P_1}{100})=\frac{28000}{2.303\times 8.314J/mole.K}[\frac{1}{299.5}-\frac{1}{267.9}]

\log  (\frac{P_1}{100})=-0.576

\frac{P_1}{100}=0.265

P_1=26.5mmHg

Thus the vapor pressure of CS_2CS_2 in mmHg at 26.5 ∘C is 26.5
