Answer: (i) F = 2
(ii) F = 3
(iii) F = 2
Explanation:
We would be applying the famous Gibbs Phase Rule to explaining this problem;
By applying the formula;
F+P = C +2
Where P = this represent the phase
F = this is called the degree of freedom
C = this represent the component in the system
Ok let us begin;
(i). from this we can see that there are 2 components i.e. (water + ethanol) and the phase in question is a vapor phase + liquid phase.
So from the formula;
F = C-P+2
F = 2 – 2 + 2 = 2
Therefore, F = 2.
(ii). Also, from the statement, we can figure there are 3 components, while the phases are two like the previous one above, i.e. liquid + vapor
F = 3 – 2 + 2 = 5 – 2 = 3
F = 3
(iii). From this statement, we can figure there are 3 components, and the phases are 3 i.e. (2 liquid phases + 1 vapor phase)
From the formula;
F = 3 – 3 + 2 = 0 + 2
F = 2
<span>A cation is an atom that loses a valence electron. When a valence electron is released there is one electron less to create a repulsive force. The loss of a repulsive force will allow the atom to pull tighter together. An anion would therefore be larger in size due to increased repulsion of the valence electrons.</span>
<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is B) 2.0 M.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given the number of grams of NaOH (Sodium Chloride) which are dissolved in 750 milliliters of water and we are to find its molarity.
We know the formula of molarity:
<em>Molarity = (mass * 1000) / (volume * molecular mass) </em>
Volume = 750 ml = 750 cm
Molecular mass = 40
Mass = 60 grams
Substituting these values in the above formula:
Molarity = 
= 2.0 M
Answer:D. It has indefinite shape but definite volume.
Explanation: The property and characteristics of liquids is it does not have a definite shape since it copies and conform on the shape of its container but it has a definite of fixed volume.
Air is it gas so it fills its container, the balloon, completely.
