Approximately how many formula units of NaCl are in 116.88g of table salt (NaCl), knowing that the molar mass of NaCl is 58.44g/

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

116.88g of table salt (NaCl) contains two formula units

Explanation:

Now,

We know that 1 formula unit of sodium chloride has a molar mass of 58.44g/mol

Hence;

Mass of 1 formula unit = 58.44g

Mass of x formula units = 116.88g

x = 116.88g * 1 formula unit/58.44g

x = 2 formula units

Therefore;

116.88g of table salt (NaCl) contains two formula units

T/F___ At the eutectic composition, an alloy can solidify at a constant temperature.___ For effective dispersion strengthening,

azamat

Answer:

TRUE
FALSE
TRUE
FALSE
FALSE
TRUE

Explanation:

At the eutectic composition, an alloy can solidify at a constant temperature : TRUE . this is because at eutectic composition the type of reaction that takes place there is invariant reaction in its thermal equilibrium
For effective dispersion strengthening, the dispersed phase should be needle-like, as opposed to round : FALSE. because the rounded shape will not cause a crack.
Intermetallic compounds are usually hard and brittle : TRUE. because Intermetallic compounds prevents dislocation movements and this makes them brittle and hard
For the effective dispersion and strengthening, the dispersed phase should be continuous : FALSE. this is because the dispersed precipitate must be small and not continuous
Stoichiometric intermetallic compounds exist over a range of compositions : FALSE
Faster solidification results in smaller interlamellar spacing : TRUE

When 231. mg of a certain molecular compound X are dissolved in 65. g of benzene (CH), the freezing point of the solution is mea

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Molar mass X = 18.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of compound X = 231 mg = 0.231 grams

Mass of benzene = 65.0 grams

The freezing point of the solution is measured to be 4.5 °C.

Freezing point of pure benzene = 5.5 °C

The freezing point constant for benzene is 5.12 °C/m

Step 2: Calculate molality

ΔT = i*Kf*m

⇒ΔT = the freezing point depression = 5.5 °C - 4.5 °C = 1.0 °C

⇒i = the Van't hoff factor = 1

⇒Kf = the freezing point depression constant for benzene = 5.12 °C/m

⇒m = the molality = moles X / mass benzene

m = 1.0 / 5.12 °C/m

m = 0.1953 molal

Step 3: Calculate moles X

Moles X = molality * mass benzene

Moles X = 0.1953 molal * 0.065 kg

Moles X = 0.0127 moles

Step 4: Calculate molar mass X

Molar mass X = mass / moles

Molar mass X = 0.231 grams / 0.0127 moles

Molar mass X = 18.2 g/mol

I NEED HELP!!

solniwko [45]

Carboxylic acids and alcohols have higher boiling point than other hydrocarbons due to their polarity and from the fact that they form very strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding. This is due to the large difference in their electronegativity that forms between the oxygen and the hydrogen atom.

Why is it that the north star is the only star in the night sky that seems to stay still

Masja [62]

I think it is because it is directly about the north or south pole (I forget) so while all the other stars seem to rotate around because the Earth is rotating but the North Star is directly in the center. Don't take my word though.
