Benzoic acid, C6H5COOH, melts at 122°C. The density in the liquid state at 130°C is 1.08g/cm3. The density of solid benzoic acid

at 15°C is 1.266g/cm3. In which of these two states is the average distance between molecules greater? If you converted a cubic centimeter of liquid benzoic acid into a solid, would the solid take up more, or less, volume than the original cubic centimeter of liquid?

Answer:

The correct answer is: Liquid state;  Less volume

Explanation:

Density (ρ) is the physical property of a substance. It is equal to the mass per unit volume of a given substance. The SI unit of density is kg/m³.

Density (ρ) = mass (m) ÷ volume (V)

<u>Given:</u> density of liquid benzoic acid = 1.08 g/cm³ and density of solid benzoic acid = 1.266 g/cm³

As 1.08 g of benzoic acid occupies 1 cm³ volume in the liquid state and 1.266 g of benzoic acid occupies 1 cm³ volume in the solid state.

<u>Thus the molecules of benzoic acid are more densely packed in the solid state as compared to the liquid state</u>.

<u>Therefore, the average distance between the molecules of benzoic acid is greater in the liquid state as compared to the solid state.</u>

<u />

Also, as the benzoic acid in the solid state is more densely packed than benzoic acid in the liquid state.

So, <u>if 1 cm³ of liquid benzoic acid is solidified</u>, then the volume occupied by solid benzoic acid having the same mass, <u>occupies less space or volume as compared to the liquid benzoic acid.</u>

why would dry cleaners use nonpolar tetrachloroethylene, c2cl4, to get cheeseburger grease out of clothes?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Grease is nonpolar. It is made up of lengthy hydrocarbon chains attached to glycerol (triacylglycerols). Because of this property, nonpolar solvents, such as tetrachloroethylene, can get grease out of clothes. This solvent acts by dissolving the grease, thereby removing it from clothes without leaving any residue.

How many chlorine atoms are there in 12.2 g of ccl4? How many chlorine atoms are there in 12.2 of ? 4.77×1022 atoms?
mash [69]

Answer:- 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms.

Solution:- We have been given the grams of carbon tetrachloride and asked to calculate the number of atoms of chlorine. It is a three step conversion problem. In the first we convert the grams of carbon tetrachloride to moles of it. In second step we convert moles of carbon tetrachloride to moles of chlorine and in the third step we convert the moles of chlorine to atoms of chlorine.

For grams to mole conversion we need the molar mass of the compound. Molar mass of carbon tetrachloride is 153.82 grams per mol. If we look at the formula of carbon tetrachloride then four chlorine are present in it. It means 1 mol of carbon tetrachloride has four moles of chlorine. The calculations are as follows:

12.2gCCl_4(\frac{1molCCl_4}{153.82gCCl_4})(\frac{4molCl}{1molCCl_4})(\frac{6.02*10^2^3Clatoms}{1molCl})

= 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms

So, there are 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms in 12.2 grams of CCl_4 .
