What is a nuetron activation analysis

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 you think would happen if global warming caused a decrease in all clouds

marta [7]

Answer:

Global warming is expected to cause changes in the amount of cloud cover, and the height and thickness of these clouds in the future, shifting the balance between the parasol and blanket effects of clouds. The knock-on effect this will have on temperature is known as cloud feedback

Calculate the volume of this irregular solid to the nearest cubic centimeter

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

8 cm3

Explanation:

The volume of this irregular solid will calculated as the difference between the final volume and the initial volume;

The final volume of the water and the solid is 25 ml

The initial volume of the water alone was 17 ml

The volume of the irregular solid is thus approximately;

25 - 17 = 8 ml

We then use the conversion;

1 cm3 = 1 mL

Thus the volume of the solid is 8 cm3

A 59.1g sample of aluminum is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that contains 250.0g of water. The aluminum sample st

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of aluminum according to this experiment is 0.863 J/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of aluminium = 59.1 grams

Mass of water = 250.0 grams

Initial temperature of aluminium = 91.3 °C

Initial temperature of water = 16.0 °C

Final temperature = 19.5 °C

Pressure remains constant

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g°C

Step 2: Calculate specific heat of aluminium

Heat lost = heat gained

Qlost = -Q heat

Q = m*c*ΔT

heat aluminium = - heat water

m(aluminium) * c(aluminium) * ΔT(aluminium) = -m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)

⇒m(aluminium) = mass of aluminium = 59.1 grams

⇒c(aluminium) = the specific heat of aluminium = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ΔT = the change in temperature = T2 -T2 = 19.5 - 91.3 = -71.8 °C

⇒ m(water) = 250.0 grams

⇒c(water) = the specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C

⇒ΔT = the change in temperature = T2 -T2 = 19.5 - 16.0 = 3.5 °C

59.1 * c(aluminium) * -71.8 °C = 250.0 * 4.186 J/g°C * 3.5 °C

c(aluminium) = 0.863 J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of aluminum according to this experiment is 0.863 J/g°C
