<u>Given:</u>
Mass of solvent water = 4.50 kg
Freezing point of the solution = -11 C
Freezing point depression constant = 1.86 C/m
<u>To determine:</u>
Moles of methanol to be added
<u>Explanation:</u>
The freezing point depression ΔTf is related to the molality m through the constant kf, as follows:
ΔTf = kf*m
where ΔTf = Freezing point of pure solvent (water) - Freezing pt of solution
ΔTf = 0 C - (-11.0 C) = 11.0 C
m = molality = moles of methanol/kg of water = moles of methanol/4.50 kg
11.0 = 1.86 * moles of methanol/4.50
moles of methanol = 26.613 moles
Ans: Thus around 26.6 moles of methanol should be added to 4.50 kg of water.
This would be c as for the amswer
<span>It is because air is a poor conductor of heat. Good luck ;)</span>
Increasing the concentration of one or more reactants will often increase the rate of reaction. This occurs because a higher concentration of a reactant will lead to more collisions of that reactant in a specific time period.
Reaction rate increases with concentration, as described by the rate law and explained by collision theory. As reactant concentration increases, the frequency of collision increases. The rate of gaseous reactions increases with pressure, which is, in fact, equivalent to an increase in concentration of the gas.
