The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

When 177. g of alanine (C_3H_7NO_2) are dissolved in 800.0 g of a certain mystery liquid X, the freezing point of the solution is 5.9^oC lower than the freezing point of pure X. On the other hand, when 177.0 g of potassium bromide are dissolved in the same mass of X, the freezing point of the solution is 7.2^oC lower than the freezing point of pure X. Calculate the van't Hoff factor for potassium bromide in X.

<u>Answer:</u> The van't Hoff factor for potassium bromide in X is 1.63

<u>Explanation:</u>

Depression in the freezing point is defined as the difference between the freezing point of the pure solvent and the freezing point of the solution.

The expression for the calculation of depression in freezing point is:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

OR

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times w_{solvent}\text{(in g)}} ......(1)

  • <u>When alanine is dissolved in mystery liquid X:</u>

\Delta T_f=5.9^oC

i = Vant Hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

K_f = freezing point depression constant

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (alanine) = 177. g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (alanine) = 89 g/mol

w_{solvent} = Mass of solvent = 800.0 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

5.9=1\times K_f\times \frac{177\times 1000}{89\times 800}\\\\K_f=\frac{5.9\times 89\times 800}{1\times 177\times 1000}\\\\K_f=2.37^oC/m

  • <u>When KBr is dissolved in mystery liquid X:</u>

\Delta T_f=7.2^oC

i = Vant Hoff factor = ?

K_f = freezing point depression constant = 2.37^oC/m

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (KBr) = 177. g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (KBr) = 119 g/mol

w_{solvent} = Mass of solvent = 800.0 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

7.2=i\times 2.37\times \frac{177\times 1000}{119\times 800}\\\\i=\frac{7.2\times 119\times 800}{2.37\times 177\times 1000}\\\\i=1.63

Hence, the van't Hoff factor for potassium bromide in X is 1.63

Determine the percent ionization of a 0.225 M solution of benzoic acid. Express your answer using two significant figures.
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

1.68% is ionized

Explanation:

The Ka of benzoic acid, C₇H₆O₂, is 6.46x10⁻⁵, the equilibrium in water of this acid is:

C₇H₆O₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₇H₅O₂⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)

Ka = 6.46x10⁻⁵ = [C₇H₅O₂⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [C₇H₆O₂]

<em>Where [] are concentrations in equilibrium</em>

In equilibrium, some 0.225M of the acid will react producing both C₇H₅O₂⁻ and H₃O⁺, the equilibrium concentrations are:

[C₇H₆O₂] = 0.225-X

[C₇H₅O₂⁻] = X

[H₃O⁺] = X

Replacing:

6.46x10⁻⁵ = [X] [X] / [0.225-X]

1.4535x10⁻⁵ - 6.46x10⁻⁵X = X²

1.4535x10⁻⁵ - 6.46x10⁻⁵X - X² = 0

Solving for X:

X = -0.0038. False solution, there is no negative concentrations.

X = 0.00378M. Right solution.

That means percent ionization (100 times Amount of benzoic acid ionized  over the initial concentration of the acid) is:

0.00378M / 0.225M * 100 =

<h3>1.68% is ionized</h3>

Can someone provide me with 5 different sentences describing what the boundry type Divergent - Mid-Ocean Ridge is? 10 POINTS!!
Lorico [155]

Answer:

The massive mid-ocean ridge system is a continuous range of underwater volcanoes that wraps around the globe like seams on a baseball, stretching nearly 65,000 kilometers (40,390 miles).

The majority of the system is underwater, with an average water depth to the top of the ridge of 2,500 meters (8,200 feet).

Mid-ocean ridges occur along divergent plate boundaries, where new ocean floor is created as the Earth’s tectonic plates spread apart.

As the plates separate, molten rock rises to the seafloor, producing enormous volcanic eruptions of basalt.

The speed of spreading affects the shape of a ridge – slower spreading rates result in steep, irregular topography while faster spreading rates produce much wider profiles and more gentle slopes.

tell me if this is wrong please

madam [21]

Answer:

you would way more bc the weight you are on earth lets say you weigh 150 lbs when you get to the moon that is lighter than earth you would weigh about 10 lbs

therefore if you was on a planet heavier than earth you would weigh more than u do on earth
