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

A mixture of 0.10 mol of NO, 0.050 mol of H2, and 0.10 mol of H2O is placed in a 1.0-L vessel at 300 K. The following equilibriu
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

[H2] =    0.012 M

[N2] =    0.019 M

[H2O] =  0.057 M

Explanation:

The strategy here is to account for the species at equilibrium given that the concentration of [NO]=0.062M at equilibrium is known and the quantities initially present and its stoichiometry.

                  2NO(g)         +    2H2(g)    ⇒        N2(g)      +         2H2O(g)

i  mol            0.10                   0.050                                             0.10

c mol            -0.038                -0.038                +0019                +0.038                                                

e mol            0.062                 0.012                  00.019               0.057

Since the volume of the vessel is 1.0 L, the concentrations in molarity are:

[NO] =   0.062 M

[H2] =    0.012 M

[N2] =    0.019 M

[H2O] =  0.057 M

2. In Experiment SOL, you investigated the solubility of oxalic acid. Sodium oxalate, Na2C2O¬4, is the sodium salt of this acid.
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Sodium oxalate is a basic salt. In water it can be dissolved and dissociated.

The oxalic acid in water has two dissociations.

Explanation:

Na2C2O4 ---> 2Na+   +  C2O4-2

Sodium oxalate is the conjugate base of a weak acid. In water this salt, dissociates completely giving rise to the sodium and oxalate ions. As Na+ comes from a strong base, in water it does not produce hydrolysis while oxalate does react in water, because it takes a proton from it and it generates a basic hydrolysis releasing OH-.

C2O4-2  + H2O ⇄  HC2O4-  +  OH-

In water the salt is basic.  The pH of an aqueous solution of this salt is basic, since OH- is generated.

The HC2O4- has a second hydrolisis, it takes another proton from water to form oxalic acid.

HC2O4-  +  H2O ⇄  H2C2O4  +  OH-

The oxalic acid acts as a weak acid, it can release 2 protons to water, to make oxalate (its conjugate base).

H2C2O4  + H2O ⇄ H3O+  + HC2O4-

HC2O4-  +  H2O ⇄  H3O+  C2O4-2

The  HC2O4-  acts as an ampholyte since it accepts and delivers protons simultaneously.

This attracts bees which, when collecting the nectar, they carry residue pollen on the flower to the next flower, which then pollinates the flowers, hence allowing them to asexually reproduce.
