Answer:

-3.2^oC

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, we need to be familiar with the law of freezing point depression. The law generally states that mixing our solvent with some particular solute would decrease the freezing point of the solvent.

This may be expressed by the following relationship:

\Delta T_f=iK_fb

Here:

\Delta T_f=T_{initial}-T_{final} is the change in the freezing point of the solvent given its initial and final freezing point temperature values;

i is the van 't Hoff factor (i = 1 for non-electrolyte solutes and i depends on the number of moles of ions released per mole of ionic salt);

K_f is the freezing point depression constant for the solvent;

b=\frac{n_{solute}}{m_{solvent}} is molality of the solute, defined as a ratio between the moles of solute and the mass of solvent (in kilograms).

We're assuming that you meant 1.7-molal solution, then:

b=1.7 m

Given ethylene glycol, an organic non-electrolyte solute:

i=1

The freezing point depression constant:

K_f=1.86^oC/m

Initial freezing point of pure water:

T_{initial}=0.00^oC

Rearrange the equation for the final freezing point and substitute the variables:

T_f=T_o-iK_fb=0.00^oC-1\cdot1.86^oC/m\cdot1.7 m=-3.16^oC

Use the periodic table to select the element that best fits each of the following descriptions. which element below has properti
xenn [34]

Answer: Boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

Metals are defined as the elements which loose electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain positive charge and form cation. Example: Zinc (Zn), Aluminium (Al) , copper (Cu)

Non-metals are defined as the elements which gain electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain negative charge and form anion. Example: Chlorine (Cl) , Sulphur (S)

Metalloids are defined as the elements which show properties of both metals and non-metals. There are 7 metalloids in the periodic table. They are Boron (B) , Silicon (Si) , Germanium (Ge) , Arsenic (As) ,  Antimony (Sb), Tellurium (Te) and Polonium (Po).

Thus boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

How many particles are there in 5.0 moles​
grigory [225]

Answer:

3.01 × 10^24 particles

Explanation:

According to Avagadro, in one mole of a substance, there are 6.02 × 10^23 atoms or particles.

Using the formula: N = n × NA

Where;

N= number of particles or atoms

n = number of moles

NA = Avagadro's constant or number

This means that for 5 moles of a substance, there will be:

5 × 6.02 × 10^23

= 30.1 × 10^23

= 3.01 × 10^24 particles

Calculate the number of moles of gas in the following at STP: 45.6 L of H2 gas
zimovet [89]

Answer:

2.04 mol

Explanation:

At STP, 1 mole = 22.4 L

45.6 L of H2 *    (1 mole of H2 / 22.4 L ) =  2.04 mol

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

As with the hydrogen-ion concentration, the concentration of the hydroxide ion can be expressed logarithmically by the pOH. The pOH of a solution is the negative logarithm of the hydroxide-ion concentration. pOH=−log[OH−] The pH of a solution can be related to the pOH.
