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 type of chemist studies how materials conduct electricity?
e-lub [12.9K]

Explanation:

The study of interaction between the chemical substances is known as chemistry and the person who does this study is called a chemical scientist. Everything around us is made up of matter and the interaction between this matters for one or different substances.

Conduits lead electrical flow in all respects effectively as a result of their free electrons. Separators restrict electrical flow and make poor transmitters. Some basic channels are copper, aluminium, gold, and silver. Some regular encasing are glass, air, plastic, elastic, and wood.

Explanation:

<em>Which of the statements correctly describe the properties of a buffer?</em>

a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. TRUE. The conjugate base neutralizes the excess of hydrogen protons.

b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. TRUE.

c. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid. FALSE. This is a basic buffer solution.

d. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. FALSE. The weak acid will react with the hydroxyl ions from the added base.

e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. TRUE. These hydrogen protons will form water.

f. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. FALSE. It will accept hydrogen protons.
