The correct answer is B. The tendency of molecules to move toward areas of lower concentration is called diffusion. This happens when there is a concentration gradient. This is described by the Fick's laws of diffusion. Diffusion is the net movement of molecules from a higher concentration to lower concentration to achieve equilibrium.

What is the ratio of the magenta phenolphthalein concentration to the colorless phenolphthalein concentration ([magenta phenolph
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}=31.62

Explanation:

Considering the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution as:

pH=pKa+\log\frac{[base]}{[acid]}

Where Ka is the dissociation constant of the acid.

pKa of phenolphthalein = 9.40

pH = 10.9

So,

10.9=9.40+\log\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}

\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}=31.62

Which of the following is not true? a. The freezing point of sea water is lower than the freezing point of pure water. b. The bo
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The false statement is b.

The boiling point of a water sample from the Salt Lake is lower than the boiling point of pure water

Explanation:

This excersise refers to colligative properties.

Boiling point refers to the property of boiling point elevation. In a solution of ions, as water sea or water from lakes, the boiling point will be higher than water pure.

It is logical to say that, because these sort of water have ions. Remember that colligative properties depends on the solute particles.

T° boiling solution - T° pure solvent = Kb . m . i

In the freezing point depression, we have the oppossite of boiling point elevation. Freezing point of solution is lower than pure solvent, according to this:

T° freezing pure solvent - T° freezing solution = Kc . m . i

We have to always consider the i, which means Van't Hoff factor, number of ions dissolved in solution. As the i is higher, the freezing point of solution will be lower, and the boiling point of solution will be higher.

They are true statement a and c.

In solution of., [NaCl] = 0.1M, as it is a higher concentration, the molality is also higher than a solution of [NaCl] = 0.05.

As water sample form Salt Lake has certain ions, it is logical to say that the boiling point of this water is higher than boiling point of pure water.

Will Florine react? will it combine with other elements?
Alexxx [7]

Fluorine is the most active chemical element, reacting with virtually every element. It even reacts with the noble gases at high temperatures and pressures. The noble gases, or Group 18 (VIIIA), also known as the inert gases, generally do not react with other elements.

A breathing mixture used by deep-sea divers contains helium, oxygen, and carbon dioxide. What is the partial pressure of oxygen
Kay [80]
Answer is: pressure of oxygen is 31,3 kPa.
The total pressure<span> of an ideal gas mixture is the sum of the </span>partial pressures<span> of the gases in the mixture.
p(mixture) = p(helium) + p(oxygen) + p(carbon dioxide).
p(oxygen) = p(mixture) - (p(helium) + p(carbon dioxide)).
p(oxygen) = 101,4 kPa - (68,7 kPa + 1,4 kPa).
p(oxygen) = 101,4 kPa - 70,1 kPa.
p(oxygen) = 31,3 kPa.
