The freezing point of camphor is 178.4�c and its molal freezing point depression constant (kf) is 37.7�c�kg/mol. how many grams

of naphthalene (c10h8; molar mass = 128.17 g/mol; a solute, not the solvent, in this question) should be mixed with 12.0 g of camphor to lower the freezing point to 170.0 �c?

Answer :

The correct answer is : 0.34 g of naphthalene .

Step 1 : To find molaity of solution using freezing point depression formula .

The formula for Freezing point depression is :ΔTf = kf * m

where , ΔTf = Freezing point of solvent - freezing point of solution

kf = freezing point depression constant and m = molality .

Given : Freezing point of solvent (camphor ) = 178.4 °C

Freezing point of solution ( naphthalene in camphor) = 170.0°C

kf for camphor = 37.7 °C Kg /mol

Plugging values in ΔTf - kf *m

178.4 °C - 170.0°C = 37.7 °C Kg/mol * m

8.4 °C = 37.7 °C Kg/mol * m

Dividing both side by 37.7 °C Kg/mol to isolate m

8.4 °C /37.7°C Kg/mol = 37.7 °C Kg/mol / 37.7 °C Kg/mol * m

m (molality ) = 0.22 mol/Kg

Step 2 : To find moles from molality .

Molality is moles of naphthalene ( solute ) present in kilograms of camphor (solvent ) . Formula of molality is : moles of solute / kilograms of solvent

Given mass of camphor = 12 g or 0.012 Kg ( 1 g = 0.001 Kg )

Plugging value in formula => 0.22 mol /Kg = mole of solute / 0.012Kg

mole of solute = 0.22 mol/Kg x 0.012 Kg = 0.00264 mol

Step 3 : To convert mole of naphthalene to its mass :

mass = mole x molar mass

Mass = 0.00264 mol x 128.17 g/mol

Mass of naphthalene to be added = 0.34 g

Answer:

The arm that was not sprayed with anything

Explanation:

The control group would be <u>the arm that was not sprayed with anything</u>.

<em>The control group during an experiment is a group that forms the baseline for comparison in other to determine the effects of a treatment. The control group does not include the variable that is being tested and as such, it provides the benchmark to measure the effects of the tested variable on the other group - the experimental group. In this case, the experimental group would be the arm that was sprayed with the repellent.</em>

6. What is the oxidation number for the atom indicated in the following compounds.
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

a. +6;

b. +5;

c. +3.

Explanation:

Start with elements with well-known oxidation states.

The oxidation state on oxygen O in compounds is mostly -2. Common exceptions include:

  • -1 in peroxides and
  • positive when oxygen bonds to fluorine.

The oxidation state on group 1 metals (Li, Na, K, etc.) in compounds is mostly +1.

The oxidation state on group 2 metals (Be, Mg, Ca, etc.) in compounds is mostly +2.

Barium Ba is a group 2 metal. The oxidation state on Ba in the compound BaSO₄ is expected to be +2.

The oxidation state on hydrogen H in compounds is mostly +1. The oxidation state on H might be negative when it is bonded to metals.  

The oxidation state on halogens (F, Cl, Br, etc.) is mostly -1. The oxidation state may vary when the halogen is bonded to oxygen or another halogen element.

Compounds are neutral. The oxidation state on all atoms in a compound shall add up to 0. Both BaSO₄ and HClO₂ are neutral.

<h3>BaSO₄</h3>

Oxidation states:

  • Ba: +2;
  • The oxidation state on sulfur S is to be determined;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on S be x.

2 + x + 4 × (-2) = 0;

x = 6.

Hence, the oxidation state on S in BaSO₄ is +6.

<h3>HClO₂</h3>

Oxidation states:

  • H: +1;
  • Cl here is bonded to oxygen. The oxidation state on chlorine Cl is to be determined;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on Cl be x.

<em>Refer to the equation in BaSO₄ as an example. Try setting up the equation on your own. </em>

x = 3.

Hence, the oxidation state on Cl is +3.

<h3>PO₄³⁻</h3>

Ions carry charge. Oxidation states on atoms in an ion shall add up to the charge of the ion. The superscript of an ion shows its charge. The superscript 3- in the phosphate ion shows that the ion carries a charge of -3.

Oxidation states:

  • The oxidation state on P is to be found;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on P be x.

x + 4 × (-2) = -3;

x = 5.

Hence, the oxidation state on P is +5.
