Answer:

SO < CO2 < C3H8

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system. The standard molar entropy of a substance refers to the entropy of 1 mole of the substance vunder standard conditions.

The molar entropy depends on the number of microstates in the system which in turn depends on the number of atoms in the molecule.

C3H8 has 11 atoms and hence the highest number of microstates followed by CO2 having three atoms and least of all SO having only two atoms.

Relate the strength of a weak acid to the strength of a conjugate base.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

There is a relationship between the strength of an acid (or base) and the strength of its conjugate base (or conjugate acid): The stronger the acid, the weaker its conjugate base. The weaker the acid, the stronger its conjugate base. The stronger the base, the weaker its conjugate acid.

explanation

The strength of an acid and a base is determined by how completely they dissociate in water. Strong acids (like stomach acid) break down or dissociate in water. Weak acids maintains their protons in water.

Mixtures of benzene and cyclohexane exhibit ideal behavior. A solution was created containing 1.5 moles of liquid benzene and 2.

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Vapour pressure of cyclohexane at 50°C is 490torr

Vapour pressure of benzene at 50°C is 90torr

Explanation:

Using Raoult's law, pressure of a solution is defined by the sum of the product sbetween mole fraction of both solvents and pressure of pure solvents.

$P_{solution} = X_{A}P^0_{A}+X_{B}P^0_{B}$

In the first solution:

$X_{cyclohexane}=\frac{2.5mol}{2.5mol+1.5mol} =0.625$

$X_{benzene}=\frac{1.5mol}{2.5mol+1.5mol} =0.375$

$340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+0.375P^0_{B}$ (1)

For the second equation:

$X_{cyclohexane}=\frac{3.5mol}{3.5mol+1.5mol} =0.700$

$X_{benzene}=\frac{1.5mol}{3.5mol+1.5mol} =0.300$

$370torr = 0.700P^0_{A}+0.300P^0_{B}$ (2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

$340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+0.375(1233.3-2.333P^0_{A})$

$340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+462.5-0.875P^0_{A}$

-122.5torr = -0.250P°A

$P^0_{A} = 490 torr$

Vapour pressure of cyclohexane at 50°C is 490torr

And for benzene:

$370torr = 0.700*490torr+0.300P^0_{B}$

$P^0_{B}=90torr$

Vapour pressure of benzene at 50°C is 90torr

Suppose you are titrating vinegar, which is an acetic acid solution

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

0.373 M

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

HC2H3O2 + NaOH —> NaC2H3O2 + H2O

From the balanced equation above, the following were obtained:

Mole ratio of the acid, HC2H3O2 (nA) = 1

Mole ratio of the base, NaOH (nB) = 1

Next, we shall write out the data obtained from the question. This include:

Volume of base, NaOH (Vb) = 32.17 mL

Molarity of base, NaOH (Mb) = 0.116 M

Volume of acid, HC2H3O2 (Va) = 10 mL

Molarity of acid, HC2H3O2 (Ma) =..?

The molarity of the acid solution can be obtained as follow:

MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB

Ma x 10 / 0.116 x 32.17 = 1

Cross multiply

Ma x 10 = 0.116 x 32.17

Divide both side by 10

Ma = (0.116 x 32.17) /10

Ma = 0.373 M

Therefore, the concentration of the acetic acid is 0.373 M.

What are Saturn's rings made up of and where are they found?(write like a sentences or two if u can)

Alenkinab [10]

Saturn's rings are made of ice and rock. These pieces vary in size. Some are as small as a grain of sand. Others are as large as a house. The rings of Saturn are the most extensive ring system of any planet in the Solar System. They consist of countless small particles, ranging in size from micrometers to meters, that orbit around Saturn. They are found around the planet
