What is the % by volume of 50mL of ethylene glycol dissolved in 950mL of H2O?

Chemistry

MariettaO [177]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

5.0 %

Explanation:

Given data

Volume of ethylene glycol (solute): 50 mL

Volume of water (solvent): 950 mL

Step 1: Calculate the volume of solution

If we assume that the volumes are additive, the volume of the solution is equal to the sum of the volume of the solute and the solvent.

V = 50 mL + 950 mL = 1000 mL

Step 2: Calculate the percent by volume

We will use the following expression.

$\% v/v = \frac{volume\ of\ solute}{volume\ of\ solution} \times 100 \% = \frac{50mL}{1000mL} \times 100 \% = 5.0\%$

What substance takes part in an enzymatic reaction, but is unchanged by the reaction?

Ierofanga [76]

The answer to this question would be: enzyme

Enzyme is a kind of catalyst that will take part in the chemical reaction but it won't be reacted. Enzyme only helps by reducing the energy needed to start the reaction.
Theoretically, the enzyme is not mandatory needed but if you have an enzyme the reaction will be easier, thus increasing reaction speed. But in most case, the reaction might be too slow without enzyme, making enzyme vital in living organism.

Answer: Water is a permanent electric dipole, having permanent charge separation.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is an intermolecular force having partial ionic-covalent character.

In $H_2O$ , O is a highly electronegative atom attached to a H atom through a covalent bond. The oxygen atoms being more electronegative gets partial negative charge and H atom gets partial positive charge. Thus water is permanent electric dipole.

Hydrogen bonding takes place between a hydrogen atom (attached with an electronegative atom O) and an electronegative atom (O).

In a liquid, the energy required to increase the surface of the area by a unit amount is called :a.dipole-dipole force. b.viscos

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

D. Surface tension.

Explanation:

Surface tension is defined as the energy required to increase the surface area of a liquid by a unit amount.

The surface tension of a liquid results from an imbalance of intermolecular attractive forces, the cohesive forces between molecules:

A molecule in a liquid experiences cohesive forces with other molecules in all directions while molecules at the surface of a liquid experiences only net inward cohesive forces.
