0.04350179862
Explanation:
Make sure to check for sig figs though. Basically, you have 2.54 mL and you multiply that by the 0.789 g/mL and mL cancels out and you are left with 2.00406g. There are 46.06844 grams per mol of ethanol, so to cancel out grams we multiply by 1/46.06844. And then we are left with 0.04350179862 mol
Explanation:
The law of conservation of mass states that mass is conserved which also means that it cannot be created or destroyed within the isolated system.
We can add the mass of the reactant and can be equal to the mass of the product. But in some cases, it will not work like:
If reactants are not in the mole ratio, there will be a limiting reagent.
If a gas is one of reactants or products.
Radioactive decay and nuclear reactions(fission or fusion).
It’s mass number would be 5 as it’s the protons and the neutrons added together
Answer and Explanation:
The explanation given in the problem is correct but not totally encompassing.
Van der waals interactions are a type of hydrophobic interaction, in which they do not interact with the polar water molecule. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms of relatively similar electronegativities, and are most often too strong to disrupt by polar molecules of water. Therefore, covalent bonds and van der waals forces have an Intrinsic bond strength value that is independent of the environment.
However, either the partial negative oxygen atom or the partial positive hydrogen atoms in water molecules disrupt hydrogen or ionic bonds. Water is known to form hydrogen bonds with other polar or charged molecules, thus reducing the strength of interaction these molecules would normally have in the absence of water. Basically, these compounds with Hydrogen or Ionic bonds ionize, whether partially or fully in water, thereby leading to a decrease in bond strength in water.
QED!
