Answer:

a) boiling pressure:

P = 0.759 atm

b) mole fractions in the vapor phase:

Xethanol(v) = 0.2192

Xwater(v) = 0.7808

Explanation:

Raoult's law:

  • Pa = (P*a)×(Xa,(l))
  • Xa(l) + Xb(l) = 1

∴ a: water

∴ b: ethanol

∴ Xb(l) = 0.1238

⇒ Xa(l) = 1 - 0.1238 = 0.8762

  • Pt = Pa + Pb

vapor pressure of the pure components at T = 85.3°C:

∴ P*a(85.3°C) ≅ 400 torr (0.53 atm).....from literature

∴ P*b(85.3°C) ≅ 800 torr (1.053 atm).....from literature

total pressure of the mix:

⇒ Pt = ((0.53 atm)(0.8762)) + ((1.053 atm)(0.1238))

⇒ Pt = 0.5947 atm

boiling point:

  • Xb(l) = Xa(l) = 0.5
  • P = (P*b - Pt)(0.5) + P*a

⇒ P = ((1.053 atm - 0.5947 atm)(0.5)) + 0.53 atm

⇒ P = 0.759 atm

assuming that the gas system is ideal:

  • (Xb(v))(Pt) = (P*b)(Xb(l))

fraction in the vapor fase, ethanol:

⇒ Xb(v) = (P*b)(Xb(l)) / Pt

⇒ Xb(v) = ((1.053 atm)(0.1238)) / (0.5947 atm)

⇒ Xb(v) = 0.2192

∴ Xa(v) = 1 - Xb(v)

⇒ Xa(v) = 1 - 0.2192 = 0.7808

What is the speed of light of an orange light with a wavelength of 600nm and a frequency of 5.00x1014?
vovangra [49]

Answer:

3 × 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

The wavelength, can be calculated by using the following formula;

λ = v/f

Where;

λ = wavelength (m)

v = velocity/speed of light (m/s)

f = frequency (Hz)

According to the provided information in this question, λ = 600nm i.e. 600 × 10^-9m, f = 5.00 x 10^14 Hz

Hence, using λ = v/f

v = λ × f

v = 600 × 10^-9 × 5.00 x 10^14

v = 6 × 10^-7 × 5.00 x 10^14

v = 30 × 10^(-7 + 14)

v = 30 × 10^ (7)

v = 3 × 10^8 m/s

The following list contains some common radicals. Using the charges on these ions and the idea of valence, predict the formulas
lesantik [10]

Answer : The formula for the compound sodium carbonate is Na_2CO_3

The formula for the compound potassium permanganate is KMnO_4

Explanation :

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced.

The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non-metals.

(a) Sodium carbonate

In the compound, the sodium metal forms an ionic compound with polyatomic anion (carbonate) CO_3^{2-}.

Here, sodium is having an oxidation state of +1 called as Na^{1+} cation and carbonate CO_3^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of -2. The charges are not balanced. So, the charges are balanced by the cris-cross method. Thus, the compound formed will be, Na_2CO_3

Hence, the formula for the compound sodium carbonate is Na_2CO_3

(b) Potassium permanganate

In the compound, the potassium metal forms an ionic compound with polyatomic anion (permanganate) MnO_4^{1-}.

Here, potassium is having an oxidation state of +1 called as K^{1+} cation and permanganate MnO_4^{1-} is an anion with oxidation state of -1. The charges are balanced. Thus, the compound formed will be, KMnO_4

Hence, the formula for the compound potassium permanganate is KMnO_4
