Answer:

Atomic models are important because, they help us visualize the interior of atoms and molecules, and thereby predicting properties of matter.

Explanation:

We study the various atomic models in our course of study because, it is important for us to know, how did people come to the present concept of an atom. How did physics evolve from classical to quantum physics.

All these are important for us to know and thus, knowledge about various atomic models, their discoveries and drawbacks and finally improvements based on scientific evidence present at that time is important for us to understand the underlying theory very well.

A solution is made by dissolving 373.5 g of Pb(NO3)2 (molar mass: 331.2 g/mol) in 2.00 × 103 g of water. What is the molality of

hram777 [196]

Answer:
molality = 0.564 m

Explanation:
Molality = number of moles of solute / kg of solvent

1- getting moles of solute:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
we have:
mass = 373.5 g
molar mass = 331.2 g/mol
Therefore:
number of moles = 373.5 / 331.2 = 1.128 moles

2- getting kg of solvent:
mass in kg = mass in grams * 10⁻³
mass in kg = 2 * 10³ * 10⁻³
mass in kg = 2 kg

3- getting molality:
Molality = number of moles of solute / kg of solvent
Molality = 1.128 / 2
Molalty = 0.564 m

Hope this helps :)

How does energy flow through the reef ecosystem?

Photosynthesizing plants and algae convert light energy into chemical energy, which then gets passed through the food web to plant eaters, flesh eaters, and ultimately to scavengers and decomposers.

Calculate the vapor pressure of a solution made by dissolving 11.1 g Ca(OH)2 in 1 102 g of water at 25 °C. Vapor pressure of pur

Levart [38]

Answer:

23.15 mmHg.

Explanation:

To solve this question you need to understand that part of Raoult's law in your Chemistry textbook. So, let us delve right into the solution of the question.

We are given parameters such as the mass of Ca(OH)2 to be = 11.1 grams, mass of solvent = 102 grams, the Vapor pressure of pure water= 23.76 mm Hg, temperature = 25°C and vapour pressure of the solution= ??.

The molar mass of Ca(OH)2= 74 g/mol.

The first thing to do is to find the number of moles of Ca(OH)2 and that of water from the formula below;

Mass/ molar mass = Number of moles.

===> Number of moles, n= 11.1/ 74.

Number of moles = 0.15 moles Ca(OH)2.

===> Number of moles, n= 102/ 18.

Number of moles, n= 5.67 moles of water.

Next, we add the two moles together to find the solvent mile fraction since vapour pressure is proportional to mole fraction.

Then;

0.15 + 5.67 = 5.82.

Therefore, 5.67/ 5.82= 0.97.

Hence the vapor pressure of a solution = 0.97 × 23.76.

vapor pressure of a solution = 23.15 mmHg.
