Answer: 0.5 M ionic AlCl_3

Explanation: Addition of nonvolatile solute depresses the freezing point of a solvent. As depression in freezing point is a colligative property, which means it depends on the amount of solute. Thus more is the no of ions, more is the depression in freezing point.

\Delta T=k_f\times m

\Delta T=Depression in freezing point

k_f= freezing point constant

m= molality

a) pure water: It is a pure solvent and freezes at 0 ° C.

b) 0.5M ionic NaCl:

NaCl\rightarrow Na^++Cl^-, it produces two ions, each of concentration 0.5M. The total concentration of ions is 1.0 M.

c) 0.5 M ionic CaCl_2

CaCl_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2Cl^-, it produces two ions, Ca^{2+} of concentration 0.5M and Cl^- of concentration 2\times 0.5 M=1.0 M. The total concentration of ions is 1.5 M.

d) 0.5 M ionic AlCl_3

AlCl_3\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3Cl^-, it produces two ions, Al^{3+} of concentration 0.5 M and Cl^- of concentration 3\times 0.5 M=1.5 MThe total concentration of ions is 2.0 M.

e) 0.5 M molecular C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}

It is a covalent compound and do not dissociate into ions. thus the concentration will be 0.5 M only.

As the concentration of ions is highest in 0.5 M ionic AlCl_3, the depression in freezing point is highest ans thus it has lowest freezing point.

What is one chemical reaction that begins with petroleum as a starting material
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Thermal decomposition or cracking

Explanation:

Petroleum is a mixture of hydrocarbons which are usually formed naturally. Petroleum undergo a host of chemical reactions. One of such is thermal decomposition or cracking.

Cracking is used in the petroleum industry to covert heavy fractions to more useful lighter ones.

When petroleum is subjected to high temperature and pressure, and in the presence of catalyst, the long chain type of petroleum will decompose into more useful smaller and lighter molecules.

Example is given below:

                  C₁₅H₃₂ → C₈H₁₈ + C₃H₆ + 2C₂H₄

a sample of ammonia contains 9g hydrogen and 42g nitrogen. another sample contains 5g hydrogen .calculate the amount of nitrogen
balandron [24]
9 g of hydrogen - 42 g of nitrogen
5 g of hydrogen - x g of nitrogen

9x=42 \cdot 5 \\&#10;9x=210 \\&#10;x \approx 23.33

The mass of nitrogen in the second sample is 23.33 g.

which idea did john dalton include in his atomic theory? a. all atoms are the same size. b. atoms of the same element are identi
lapo4ka [179]
It might be c, because he came up with the plum pudding model.  or it might be that atoms of the same element are identical, but that's not true cuz ions are different and isotopes are different.
