A dilute solution of bromine in carbon tetrachloride behaves as an ideal-dilute solution. The vapour pressure of pure CCl4 is 33

ANEK [815]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Vapour pressure of pure $CCl_{4}$ = 33.85 Torr

Temperature = 298 K

Mole fraction of $Br_{2}$ = 122.36 torr

Therefore, calculate the vapor pressure of $Br_{2}$ as follows.

Vapour pressure of $Br_{2}$ = mole fraction of $Br_{2}$ x K of $Br_{2}$

= 0.050 x 122.36 Torr

= 6.118 Torr

So, vapor pressure of $Br_{2}$ is 6.118 Torr .

Now, calculate the vapor pressure of carbon tetrachloride as follows.

Vapour pressure of $CCl_{4}$ = mole fraction of $CCl_{4}$ x Pressure of $CCl_{4}$

= (1 - 0.050) × 33.85 Torr

= 32.1575 Torr

So, vapor pressure of $CCl_{4}$ is 32.1575 Torr .

Hence, the total pressure will be as follows.

= 6.118 Torr + 32.1575 Torr

= 38.2755 Torr

Therefore, composition of $CCl_{4}$ = $\frac{32.1575 Torr}{38.2755 Torr}$

= 0.8405

Composition of $CCl_{4}$ is 0.8405 .

And, composition of $Br_{2}$ = $\frac{6.118 Torr}{38.2755 Torr}$

= 0.1598

Composition of $Br_{2}$ is 0.1598 .

How does the periodic table make it easier for the scientist to work with and study elements

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The periodic table has gone through many changes since Dmitri Mendeleev drew up its original design in 1869, yet both the first table and the modern periodic table are important for the same reason: The periodic table organizes elements according to similar properties so you can tell the characteristics of an element just by looking at its location on the table
