The correct option is A.
The law of definite proportion states that a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio irrespective of the source they are obtain from.
For instance, water is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. Water can not be formed in any other way. Combining the oxygen and the hydrogen in another ratio will give us another thing not water.

You want to sweeten a cup of tea, and you have three types of sugar: sugar cubes (volume: 5ml), granulated sugar (volume: 0.1 ml
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

powdered sugar

Explanation:

The higher is the exposed area of sugar, the faster is the dissolution process. Thus, to choose between the different types of sugar, we have to look at the volume occupied by the sugar.

In sugar cubes, the particles of sugar as compacted in a cube, so the particles inside the cube are not exposed to the solvent (water). So, sugar cubes have the slowest dissolution process. Then, in granulated sugar, the particles have more area exposed, so this type of sugar will dissolve faster than sugar cubes. Finally, powdered sugar is composed of tiny particles with more are exposed, so powdered sugar has the fastest dissolution process.

Therefore, powdered sugar will dissolve the fastest.

How much oxygen be required to produce 3.9 mol of water
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

1.95mol

Explanation:

First let us generate the equation for the reaction:

2H2 + O2 —> 2H2O

From the equation,

1mole of O2 reacted to produce 2moles of H2O.

Therefore, Xmol of O2 will react to produce 3.9 mol of H2O i.e

Xmol of O2 = 3.9/2 = 1.95mol

To be able to see a measurable effect, your boiling point elevation must be at least 1.00°C. Knowing that the Kb­ of water is 0.
ale4655 [162]

Answer : The mass of calcium chloride (in g) needed is, 1.92 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Boiling point of elevation constant (K_b) for water = 0.512^oC/m

Mass of water (solvent) = Density\times Volume=1.00g/mL\times 26.63mL=26.63g=0.02663kg

Molar mass of CaCl_2 = 110.98 g/mole

Formula used :  

\Delta T_b=i\times K_b\times m\\\\\Delta T_b=i\times K_b\times\frac{\text{Mass of }CaCl_2}{\text{Molar mass of }CaCl_2\times \text{Mass of water in kg}}

where,

\Delta T_b = change in boiling point  = 1.00^oC

i = Van't Hoff factor = 3 (for electrolyte)

K_b = boiling point constant for water

m = molality

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

1.00^oC=3\times (0.512^oC/m)\times \frac{\text{Mass of }CaCl_2}{110.98g/mol\times 0.02663kg}

\text{Mass of }CaCl_2=1.92g

Therefore, the mass of calcium chloride (in g) needed is, 1.92 grams.
