Answer:

Here's how I would explain it.

Explanation:

Think of it this way.

When you mix solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride, you get an immediate precipitate of silver chloride. The equation is

Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) ⟶ AgCl(s)

Now, take some AgCl and stir it vigorously with water.

You won't see much happening, because the AgCl is has such a low solubility. Not much of it will go into solution. And yet, a small amount of it does dissolve until the solution is saturated.

The concentration of AgCl in the saturated solution is

about 0.000 01 mol·L⁻¹.

I hope you will agree that this is a dilute solution even though it is saturated with AgCl.

The vapor pressure of methanol is 143 mmhg. identify the best reason to explain why methanol spontaneously evaporates in open ai
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer/Explanation:

Methanol has a molecular weight (32.04 g/mol), low-boiling point and because of its low boiling point, methanol readily evaporates at room temperature.

Under these specified non-standard conditions, the partial pressure of methanol is lower than its vapor pressure and this explains the reason for the spontaneous evaporation exhibited by methanol.

Suppose you need to prepare 136.9 mL of a 0.315 M aqueous solution of NaCl.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

2.52 g NaCl

Explanation:

(Step 1)

To find the mass, you first need to find the moles NaCl. This value can be found using the molarity ratio:

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

After you convert mL to L, you can plug the given values into the equation and simplify to find moles.

136.9 mL / 1,000 = 0.1369 L

Molarity = moles / volume

0.315 M = moles / 0.1369 L

0.0431 = moles

(Step 2)

Now, you can use the molar mass to convert moles to grams.

Molar Mass (NaCl): 22.990 g/mol + 35.453 g/mol

Molar Mass (NaCl): 58.443 g/mol

0.0431 moles NaCl           58.443 g
------------------------------  x  -------------------  =  2.52 g NaCl
                                            1 mole

g A and B are both non-volatile molecular compounds. Substance A has a greater molar mass than substance B. If 50 g of substance
Doss [256]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option D.  the boiling point of solution A will be lower than the boiling point of solution B

Explanation:

Colligative properties such as a decrease in the freezing point of the solution, increase in the boiling point of substance, decrease in Lowering of vapor pressure, and other properties depend upon the number of molecules only.

In the given solution the equal amount of two solutions are mixed that is 50 grams however due to the difference in the molecular mass so the atoms present in both solution A and B will be different. It is known that the number of atoms of a substance is inversely proportional to the molecular mass of the particular substance.

As it is given that Solution B has a low molecular mass which means it has a high number of atoms that means its boiling point will be higher than solution A.
