Answer:
108.43 grams KNO₃
Explanation:
To solve this problem we use the formula:
Where
- ΔT is the temperature difference (14.5 K)
- Kf is the cryoscopic constant (1.86 K·m⁻¹)
- b is the molality of the solution (moles KNO₃ per kg of water)
- and<em> i</em> is the van't Hoff factor (2 for KNO₃)
We <u>solve for b</u>:
- 14.5 K = 1.86 K·m⁻¹ * b * 2
Using the given volume of water and its density (aprx. 1 g/mL) we <u>calculate the necessary moles of KNO₃</u>:
- 275 mL water ≅ 275 g water
- moles KNO₃ = molality * kg water = 3.90 * 0.275
- moles KNO₃ = 1.0725 moles KNO₃
Finally we <u>convert KNO₃ moles to grams</u>, using its molecular weight:
- 1.0725 moles KNO₃ * 101.103 g/mol = 108.43 grams KNO₃
The product of a number and 4 is 32
Answer:
This was important because it supported the concept of discovery of new elements
Explanation:
Mendleev left gaps in his table not discovered at that time, but he predicted the properties (chemical and physical) of undiscovered elements. Mendeleev left the gap next to silicon and named the undiscovered element as 'eka-silicon', the element germanium was discovered later.
