A bottle of wine contains 12.8% ethanol by volume. The density of ethanol (CH3OH) is 0.789 g/cm. Calculate the concentratic etha

Scrat [10]

Answer : The mass percent of ethanol is, 10.38 % and the molality of ethanol is, 2.52 mole/kg

Explanation :

In wine, the solute and solvent are ethanol and water respectively.

Given :

12.8 % ethanol by volume means 12.8 mL ethanol present in 100 mL solution.

Volume of ethanol = 12.8 mL

Volume of solution = 100 mL

Volume of water = 100 - 12.8 = 87.2 mL

Density of ethanol = $0.789g/cm^3=0.789g/mL$

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Now we have to calculate the mass of ethanol and water.

$\text{Mass of ethanol}=\text{Density of ethanol}\times \text{Volume of ethanol}=0.789g/mL\times 12.8mL=10.1g$

and,

$\text{Mass of water}=\text{Density of water}\times \text{Volume of water}=1g/mL\times 87.2mL=87.2g$

Now we have to calculate the total mass of 100 mL of wine.

Total mass of 100 mL of wine = 10.1 + 87.2 = 97.3 g

Now we have to calculate the mass percent of ethanol.

$\text{Mass of percent of ethanol}=\frac{\text{Mass of ethanol}}{\text{Total mass of solution}}\times 100$

$\text{Mass of percent of ethanol}=\frac{10.1g}{97.3g}\times 100=10.38\%$

The mass percent of ethanol is, 10.38 %

Now we have to calculate the molality.

$Molality=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent}}$

Molar mass of ethanol = 46 g/mole

$Molality=\frac{10.1g\times 1000}{46g/mole\times 87.2g}=2.52mole/kg$

The molality of ethanol is, 2.52 mole/kg

10. What effect does temperature have on molecular motion? Using this explanation, explain why both pressure and volume can decr

vovangra [49]

Answer:

If the temperature increases the molecular movement as well, and if it increases the same it will happen with the molecular movement.

Pressure, volume and temperature are three factors that are closely related since they increase the temperature, the pressure usually decreases due to the dispersion of the molecules that can be generated, so the volume also increases.

If the temperature drops, the material becomes denser, its molecules do not collide with each other, their volume and pressure increases.

Explanation:

The pressure is related to the molecular density and the movement that these molecules have.

The movement is regulated by temperature, since if it increases, the friction and collision of the molecules also.

On the other hand, the higher the volume, the less pressure there will be on the molecules, since they are more dispersed among themselves.

(in the opposite case that the volume decreases, the pressure increases)
