Answer:

The Celsius scale is currently defined by two different temperatures: absolute zero and the triple point of Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water (VSMOW; specially purified water). Based on this, the relationship between Celsius and Kelvin is as follows: TCelsius=TKelvin−273.15 T Celsius = T Kelvin − 273.15 .

When 136g of glycine are dissolved in of a certain mystery liquid , the freezing point of the solution is lower than the freezin
loris [4]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

When 136 g of glycine are dissolved in 950 g of a certain mystery liquid X, the freezing point of the solution is 8.2C lower than the freezing point of pure X. On the other hand, when 136 g of sodium chloride are dissolved in the same mass of X, the freezing point of the solution is 20.0C lower than the freezing point of pure X. Calculate the van't Hoff factor for sodium chloride in X.

Answer: The vant hoff factor for sodium chloride in X is 1.9

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=8.2^0C = Depression in freezing point

K_f = freezing point constant

i = vant hoff factor = 1 ( for non electrolyte)

m= molality =\frac{136g\times 1000}{950g\times 75.07g/mol}=1.9

8.2^0C=1\times K_f\times 1.9

K_f=4.32^0C/m

Now Depression in freezing point for sodium chloride is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=20.0^0C = Depression in freezing point

K_f = freezing point constant  

m= molality = \frac{136g\times 1000}{950g\times 58.5g/mol}=2.45

20.0^0C=i\times 4.32^0C\times 2.45

i=1.9

Thus vant hoff factor for sodium chloride in X is 1.9

At what temperature will a solid melt?
jolli1 [7]

<u>Answer</u>:

A solid will melt at the temperature at which the kinetic energy breaks the inter-molecular attractions.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The melting point is the state at which "a substance changes its temperature from a solid to  liquid". At the melting point temperature, there is an equilibrium between the both the solid and the liquid phase. When the solid particle is heated by increasing the temperature the particle in the solid vibrate quickly and it absorbs kinetic energy.

It leads to the breaking of the organisation of particle in between the solid and that leads to the melting of solid. Thus, at the melting point, the kinetic energy breaks the inter-molecular attractions.
