Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In both cases the central atoms, C in CHCl₃ and O in H₂O, are sp³ hybridized .

Since they are sp³ hybridized we predict an angle between the H-C-Cl and H-O-H of 109.5 º ( tetrahedral ), but two of the sp³ orbitals in water are occupied by lone pairs.

These lone pairs do excercise more repulsion ( need more room ) than the bonds oxygen is making with hydrogen.

As a consequence of this repulsion the angles H-O-H are less than the predicted 109.5º in tetrahedra. ( Actually is 104.5 º)

Lysozyme extracted from chicken egg white has a molar mass of 13,930 g mo1-1. Exactly 0.1 g of this protein is dissolved in 50 g

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Relative lowering in vapor pressure of solution is 23.7599 mmHg.

Depression in freezing point of the solution is 0.0002667 K.

Elevation in boiling point of the solution is 0.0000745 K.

Osmotic pressure of the solution is 0.0035 atm.

Explanation:

1) Relative lowering in vapor pressure of solution containing non volatile solute is equal to the mole fraction of the solute.

$\frac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}=\frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}$

$p^o$ = Vapor Pressure of the pure solvent

$p_s$ = Vapor Pressure of the solution

$n_2$ moles of solute

$n_1$ = moles of solvent

Given; $p^o=23.76 mmHg ,p_s=?$

Moles of Lysozyme = $n_2=\frac{0.1 g}{13,930 g/mol}=7.17\times 10^{-6} mol$

Moles of water = $n_1=\frac{50 g}{18 g/mol}=3.333 mol$

$\frac{23.76 mmHg-p_s}{23.76 mmHg}=\frac{7.17\times 10^{-6} mol}{3.333 mol+7.17\times 10^{-6} mol}$

$p_s=23.7599 mmHg$

2) Depression in freezing point $\Delta T_f$ is given by:

$\Delta T_f=K_f\times m$

$K_f$ = molal depression constant of solvent

m = molality of the solution = $\frac{moles}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}}$

$\Delta T_f=1.86 K kg/mol\times \frac{7.17\times 10^{-6} mol}{0.050 kg}$

$\Delta T_f=0.0002667 K$

3) Elevation in boiling point $\Delta T_b$ is given by:

$\Delta T_b=K_b\times m$

$K_b$ = molal elevation constant of solvent

m = molality of the solution = $\frac{moles}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}}$

$\Delta T_b=0.52 K kg/mol\times \frac{7.17\times 10^{-6} mol}{0.050 kg}$

$\Delta T_b=0.0000745 K$

4) Osmotic pressure of the solution $\pi$ is given as:

$\pi =cRT$

c = concentration of solution = $\frac{Moles}{Volume(L)}$

T = temperature of the solution

R = Universal gas constant = 0.0821 atm L/mol K

given , T = 298 K,

Mass of water = 50 g

Density of water = 1 g/ml

Volume of the water = $\frac{50 g}{1 g/mL}=50 mL=0.050 L$

$c=\frac{7.17\times 10^{-6} mol}{0.050 L}$

Since, there is less amount of solute in solvent volume of solution can be taken equal to the volume to the solution.

$\pi =\frac{7.17\times 10^{-6} mol}{0.050 L}\times 0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 298 K$

$\pi=0.0035 atm$

Which method would increase the solubility of gas

jeka94

Answer:

BY increasing pressure and decreasing temperature.

Explanation:

The solubility of a gas increases with decrease in the temperature.

Also the solubility of a gas increases with increasing pressure.

A gas can be compressed by increasing the pressure and decreasing the temperature.

FOR example the gas in domestic LPG cylinders are in compressed form inside the cylinder.

A gas takes the form of a liquid after compressing. Whenever it comes back to normal temperature and pressure it takes back to its gaseous form back.

The gaseous oxygen is water soluble and does not react with it

O2 + 2H2O + 4 e= 4 OH-

A pile of Mgo dust is known to contain 2.082 mol. How many molecules are there?

nlexa [21]

Every one mol of MgO is 6.022 x 10^23 molecules (Avogado’s Number) So, you multiply 2.082 mol of MgO with 6.022 x 10^23 molecules. Hope this helps!

What happens to an atom of sulfur (S) if it loses an electron?

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

An atom becomes anion when it gains or loses electrons. The ions that are formed when an atom loses electrons are positively charged because they have more protons in the nucleus than electrons in the electron cloud.
