Bohr model for silicon

Identify the solute with the highest van't Hoff factor. And how do you determine which one is highest?

german

Answer : The correct option is, (A) $AlCl_3$

Explanation :

Van't Hoff factor : It is defined as the ratio of the experimental value of the colligative property to the calculated value of the colligative property.

We can determine the van't Hoff factor by the association and dissociation of the compound.

(A) $AlCl_3$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give aluminum ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of $AlCl_3$ will be,

$AlCl_3\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}$ = 1 + 3 = 4

(B) $KI$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give potassium ion and iodide ion.

The dissociation of $KI$ will be,

$KI\rightarrow K^{+}+I^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $K^{+}+I^{-}$ = 1 + 1 = 2

(C) $CaCl_2$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give calcium ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of $CaCl_2$ will be,

$CaCl_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}$ = 1 + 2 = 3

(D) $MgSO_4$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give magnesium ion and sulfate ion.

The dissociation of $MgSO_4$ will be,

$MgSO_4\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$ = 1 + 1 = 2

(E) Non-electrolyte

The dissociation non-electrolyte is not possible. So, the Van't Hoff factor will always be, 1.

Hence, the highest van't Hoff factor of solute is, $AlCl_3$

What does it mean to say an equation is balanced? Why is it important for an equation to be balanced?

Rom4ik [11]

Answer: It is important for an equation to be balanced because if it is not then the reactants won't match the products.

Explanation: I don't know if you will understand this but here:

Let's say you're cooking eggs, you're reactants so to speak would be 3 eggs and 1 tablespoon of oil so you put it together using heat and a pan. Your products have to match what you have in the beginning. You cannot have an equation that looks like this

Reactants = 3eggs + 1Tbsp oil ---pan/heat---> 6eggs + 1 cup of oil

You cannot get something from what you don't have. The number of how much of an element you have must be the same of both sides of the equation.

What two types of matter are closest in<br> density? How do you know?<br> ings.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Density: The molecules of a liquid are packed relatively close together. Consequently, liquids are much denser than gases. The density of a liquid is typically about the same as the density of the solid state of the substance.

In a gas, the distance between molecules, whether monatomic or polyatomic, is very large compared with the size of the molecules; thus gases have a low density and are highly compressible. In contrast, the molecules in liquids are very close together, with essentially no empty space between them
