The answer is A

explanation:

We know that the atomic weight of carbon is 12 grams and that of oxygen is 16 grams. Hence we have calculated the mass 5 of carbon in carbon dioxide to be 27.27%.

18. Suggest an explanation for the observations that ethanol, C2H5OH, is completely miscible with water and that ethanethiol, C2
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

              Ethanol is completely miscible due to <u><em>presence</em></u> of Hydrogen bonding.

              Ethanethiol is partially miscible due to <u><em>absence</em></u> of Hydrogen Bonding.

Explanation:

                     The miscibility of liquids depend upon the intermolecular interactions between the two liquids. The stronger the intermolecular interactions the more miscible will be the liquids.

Among the two given examples, Ethanol is more miscible in water because it exhibits hydrogen bonding which is considered the strongest intermolecular interaction. Hydrogen bonding occurs when the hydrogen atom is bonded to more electronegative atoms like Fluorine, Oxygen and Nitrogen. In this way the hydrogen atom gets partial positive charge and the electronegative atom gets partial negative charge. Hence, these partial charges results in attracting the opposite charges on other surrounding atoms.

While, in case of Ethanethiol the hydrogen atom is not bonded to any high electronegative atom hence, there will be no hydrogen bonding and therefore, there will be less interactions between the neighbour atoms.

What ultimately determines what type of solution you have? Why can’t we just use this property? Explain in terms of the tyndall
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The solutions are classified according to their ability to scatter light rays.

We can't just use this property because some true solutions also contain undissolved solute.

Explanation:

Tyndall effect refers to the ability of a solution to scatter light rays. True solutions do not scatter light rays while false solutions scatter light rays.

Colloid particles are not large enough to be seen with naked eyes unlike suspensions. We should not confuse a colloid with a suspension because in a suspension, the dispersed solutes are seen with naked eye.

Calcium chloride contains calcium and chloride ions. Write the ground-state electron configuration for the calcium ion.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6

Explanation:

Calcium is the 20th element. It has 20 electrons in it's neutral state. The electronic configuration is given as;

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2

However in the compound; calcium chloride, it does not exist in it's neutral state.

CaCl2 --> Ca2+   +   Cl-

In Ca2+ state, it has lost two electrons, The total number of electrons becomes; 20 - 2 = 18 electrons.

The electronic configuration is given as;

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6
