Answer:

AlCl₃.

Explanation:

Adding solute to water causes depression of the boiling point.

The depression in freezing point (ΔTf) can be calculated using the relation:

ΔTf = i.Kf.m,

where, ΔTf is the depression in freezing point.

i is the van 't Hoff factor.

van 't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass. For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is essentially 1.

Kf is the molal depression constant of water.

m is the molality of the solution (m = 1.0 m, for all solutions).

(1) NaCl:

i for NaCl = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 2/1 = 2.

∴ ΔTb for (NaCl) = i.Kb.m = (2)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 2(Kf).

(2) MgCl₂:

i for MgCl₂ = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 3/1 = 3.

∴ ΔTb for (MgCl₂) = i.Kb.m = (3)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 3(Kf).

(3) NaCl:

i for KBr = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 2/1 = 2.

∴ ΔTb for (KBr) = i.Kb.m = (2)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 2(Kf).

(4) AlCl₃:

i for AlCl₃ = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 4/1 = 4.

∴ ΔTb for (CoCl₃) = i.Kb.m = (4)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 4(Kf).

So, the ionic compound will lower the freezing point the most is: AlCl₃

One kilogram of water at 100 0C is cooled reversibly to 15 0C. Compute the change in entropy. Specific heat of water is 4190 J/K
mina [271]

Answer:

The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

Explanation:

If the water is cooled reversibly with no phase changes, then there is no entropy generation during the entire process. By the Second Law of Thermodynamics, we represent the change of entropy (s_{2} - s_{1}), in joules per gram-Kelvin, by the following model:

s_{2} - s_{1} = \int\limits^{T_{2}}_{T_{1}} {\frac{dQ}{T} }

s_{2} - s_{1} = m\cdot c_{w} \cdot \int\limits^{T_{2}}_{T_{1}} {\frac{dT}{T} }

s_{2} - s_{1} = m\cdot c_{w} \cdot \ln \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} (1)

Where:

m - Mass, in kilograms.

c_{w} - Specific heat of water, in joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

T_{1}, T_{2} - Initial and final temperatures of water, in Kelvin.

If we know that m = 1\,kg, c_{w} = 4190\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K}, T_{1} = 373.15\,K and T_{2} = 288.15\,K, then the change in entropy for the entire process is:

s_{2} - s_{1} = (1\,kg) \cdot \left(4190\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K} \right)\cdot \ln \frac{288.15\,K}{373.15\,K}

s_{2} - s_{1} = -1083.112\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot K}

The change in entropy is -1083.112 joules per kilogram-Kelvin.

For each of the esters provided, identify the alcohol and the carboxylic acid that reacted.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

52. The alcohol USED => methanol, CH3OH

The carboxylic acid USED => propanoic acid, CH3CH2COOH.

53. The alcohol USED => Ethanol, CH2CH3OH

The carboxylic acid USED => Formic acid, HCOOH.

Explanation:

52. To obtain Methyl propanoate, CH3CH2COOCH3, we simply react propanoic, CH3CH2COOH and methanol, CH3OH together as shown below:

CH3CH2COOH + CH3OH —> CH3CH2COOCH3 + H2O

The alcohol used: methanol, CH3OH

The carboxylic acid used: propanoic acid, CH3CH2COOH.

53. To obtain Ethyl methanoate, HCOOCH2CH3, we simply react

Formic acid, HCOOH and ethanol, CH3CH2OH together as show below:

HCOOH + CH3CH2OH —> HCOOCH2CH3 + H2O

The alcohol USED => Ethanol, CH2CH3OH

The carboxylic acid USED => Formic acid, HCOOH.
