The vapor pressure of pure water at 25 °c is 23.8 torr. What is the vapor pressure (torr) of water above a solution prepared by

dissolving 18.0 g of glucose (a nonelectrolyte, mw = 180.0 g/mol) in 95.0 g of water?

The vapour pressure of the solution is 23.4 torr.

Use <em>Raoult’s Law</em> to calculate the vapour pressure:  

<em>p</em>₁ = χ₁<em>p</em>₁°  

where  

χ₁ = the mole fraction of the solvent  

<em>p</em>₁ and <em>p</em>₁° are the vapour pressures of the solution and of the pure solvent  

The formula for vapour pressure lowering Δ<em>p</em> is  

Δ<em>p</em> = <em>p</em>₁° - <em>p</em>₁  

Δ<em>p</em> = <em>p</em>₁° - χ₁<em>p</em>₁° = p₁°(1 – χ₁) = χ₂<em>p</em>₁°  

where χ₂ is the mole fraction of the solute.  

<em>Step 1</em>. Calculate the <em>mole fraction of glucose </em>

<em>n</em>₂ = 18.0 g glu × (1 moL glu/180.0 g glu) = 0.1000 mol glu  

<em>n</em>₁ = 95.0 g H_2O × (1 mol H_2O/18.02 g H_2O) = 5.272 mol H_2O  

χ₂ = <em>n</em>₂/(<em>n</em>₁ + n₂) = 0.1000/(0.1000 + 5.272) = 0.1000/5.372 = 0.018 62  

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>vapour pressure lowering</em>  

Δ<em>p</em> = χ₂<em>p</em>₁° = 0.018 62 × 23.8 torr = 0.4430 torr  

<em>Step 3</em>. Calculate the <em>vapour pressure</em>  

<em>p₁</em> = <em>p</em>₁° - Δ<em>p</em> = 23.8 torr – 0.4430 torr = 23.4 torr

Does potassium nitrate (KN03) incorporate ionic bonding, covalent bonding, or both? Explain.
ladessa [460]

Answer: KNO_3 incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.

Explanation:

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here potassium is having an oxidation state of +1 called as K^{+} cation and nitrate NO_3^{-} is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral KNO_3. NO_3^- is formed by sharing of electrons between two non metals nitrogen and oxygen.

Thus KNO_3 incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.

Determine whether each of the descriptions of matter describes a heterogeneous mixture, a homogeneous mixture, or a pure substan
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer: a. two substances present; two phases present  : Heterogeneous mixture

b. two substances present; one phase present : Homogeneous mixture

c. one substance present; one phase present : pure substance.

d. one substance present; two phases present: Heterogeneous mixture

Explanation:

A pure substance is a substance which contains definite composition of only one type of component. Hence, it cannot be separated by physical means.

Mixture is a substance which contains two or more than two types of components and they can be separated by physical means as well.

Homogeneous mixtures: It is a mixture that has uniform composition throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are not different. There is no physical boundary between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

Heterogeneous mixtures: It is a mixture that has non-uniform composition throughout the solution and the particle size or shapes are also different.  There is a physical boundary between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.

A 21.0 kg child is running at a velocity of 2.50 m/s. The child is carrying a 2.25 kg gallon of milk. What is the momentum of th
KIM [24]

Answer: The momentum of the child and milk together is 58.125 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of object's mass and velocity.

Mathematically,

p=mv

where, p = momentum

m = mass of the object

v = velocity of the object

In the given question, we are given that a child of mass 21.0 kg is carrying a gallon of milk having mass 2.25 kg and running with a velocity of 2.5 m/s. Hence, the momentum by both milk and child will be:

p=(m_{child}+m_{milk})v     ....(1)

Given:

m_{child}=21.0kg\\m_{milk}=2.25kg\\v=2.5m/s\\p=?kg.m/s

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

p=(21+2.25)kg\times 2.5m/s=58.125kg.m/s

Hence, the momentum of the child and milk together is 58.125 kg.m/s
