Answer:
The solubility of X in water at 17°C is 0.110 g/mL.
Explanation:
The water of a rock pool lined with mineral crystals is a <em>saturated solution</em> of said mineral, this means the concentration of X in those 36 mL is the solubility of compound X in water at 17 °C.
- This means<u> it is possible to calculate said solubility</u>.
The dilution of the sample is not relevant, nor is that 500 mL volume. What's important is that 3.96 g of X form a saturated solution with 36.0 mL of water, so the solubility is:
- 3.96 g / 36.0 mL = 0.110 g/mL
Answer:
581 Joules.
Explanation:
Using the formula;
Q = m × c × ∆T
Where;
Q = amount of heat absorbed (J)
m = mass of substance (g)
c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)
∆T = change in temperature (°C)
According to the information provided in this question;
Q = ?
mass of ice = 15.9g
initial temperature = -4°C
final temperature = 14°C
Hence, ∆T = 14 - (-4) = 14 + 4 = 18°C
specific heat capacity (c) of ice in J/g°C = 2.03 J/g°C
Using Q = m × c × ∆T
Q = 15.9 × 2.03 × 18
Q = 32 × 18
Q = 581 Joules.
The actual mass is 904.4g but with correct number of sig figs it’s 904g.
Answer:
freezing point (°C) of the solution = - 3.34° C
Explanation:
From the given information:
The freezing point (°C) of a solution can be prepared by using the formula:

where;
i = vant Hoff factor
the vant Hoff factor is the totality of the number of ions in the solution
Since there are 1 calcium ion and 2 nitrate ions present in Ca(NO3)2, the vant Hoff factor = 3
= 1.86 °C/m
m = molality of the solution and it can be determined by using the formula

which can now be re-written as :



molality = 0.599 m
∴
The freezing point (°C) of a solution can be prepared by using the formula:



the freezing point of water - freezing point of the solution
3.34° C = 0° C - freezing point of the solution
freezing point (°C) of the solution = 0° C - 3.34° C
freezing point (°C) of the solution = - 3.34° C
C) we can see Sirius as it looked 8.8 light years ago.
