<u>Answer:</u> The molality of the solution is 0.11 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mole fraction of methanol = 0.135

This means that 0.135 moles of methanol is present in 1 mole of a solution

Moles of ethanol = 1 - 0.135 = 0.865 moles

To calculate the mass for given number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of ethanol = 0.865 moles

Molar mass of ethanol = 46 g/mol

0.865mol=\frac{\text{Mass of ethanol}}{46g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of ethanol}=(0.865mol\times 46g/mol}=39.79g

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

Molality=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}

Where,

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (methanol) = 0.135 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (methanol) = 32 g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent (ethanol) = 39.79 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Molality of methanol}=\frac{0.135\times 1000}{32\times 39.79}\\\\\text{Molality of methanol}=0.106m\approx 0.11m

Hence, the molality of the solution is 0.11 m

A carbon skeleton is covalently bonded to both an amino group and a carboxyl group. When placed in water it ____
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The correct option is: (D) would function as both an acid and a base

Explanation:

A carbon skeleton bonded to a amino group as well as a carboxyl group, will behave as an acid in basic medium and base in acidic medium. This is because the carboxyl group present in the compound will release a proton in basic medium and the amino group will accept a proton in the acidic medium.

<u>Therefore, a carbon skeleton which is covalently bonded to a carboxyl and amino group will behave as both acid and base.</u>

Key terms: Reset ____________ anions are strong nucleophiles that open epoxide rings by an SN2 mechanism. ____________ tautomers
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Acetylide , Enol ,aldehydes, tautomers, alkynes , Hydroboration, Keto

Explanation:

Reset <u>Acetylide</u>  anions are strong nucleophiles that open epoxide rings by an SN2 mechanism. <u>Enol </u>tautomers have an O-H group bonded to a C=C. <u>aldehydes </u>are formed from terminal alkynes with the addition of water using BH3 then H2O2. <u>tautomers</u> are constitutional isomers that differ in the location of a double bond and a hydrogen and exist in an equilibrium with each other. <u>alkynes</u> are compounds that contain a carbon-carbon triple bond. <u>Hydroboration</u> of a terminal alkyne adds BH₂ to the less substituted, terminal carbon.<u> Keto</u> tautomers have a C=O and an additional C-H bond.
