Answer: It decreases because nonvolatile aluminum and chloride ions now occupy some of the volume of the system.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure of a liquid is defined as the pressure exerted by the vapors in equilibrium with the liquid/solution at a particular temperature.

So, when a non-volatile solute is added to a solvent then its molecules align at the surface of liquid. As a result, less number of solvent molecules will escape from the solution. Thus, there will be decrease in vapors and thus the vapor pressure decrease.

The relative lowering of vapor pressure is directly proportional to the amount of dissolved solute.

what actually is left over of water once it self ionizes? Like what exactly are the hydrogen and hydroxide ions? Do they remain

GrogVix [38]

The formula for the self ionization of water is 2H₂O(l)⇄H₃O⁺(aq)+OH⁻(aq)

The hydronium (H₃O⁺) is usually just referred to as a hydrogen ion or a proton (H⁺) and hydroxide (OH⁻) doesn't have another name that I am aware of. These ions do stay in solution. However the concentrations are really small and the equilibrium constant (K(w)) is 1×10⁻¹⁴.

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Calculate the wavelength for the transition from n = 4 to n = 2, and state the name given to the spectroscopic series to which t

finlep [7]

Answer:

The wavelength for the transition from n = 4 to n = 2 is 486nm and the name name given to the spectroscopic series belongs to The Balmer series.

Explanation

lets calculate -

Rydberg equation- $\frac{1}{\pi } =R(\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{n_2^2})$

where , $\pi$ is wavelength , R is Rydberg constant ( $1.097\times10^7$ ), $n_1$ and $n_2$ are the quantum numbers of the energy levels. (where $n_1=2 , n_2=4$ )
