Answer:

a. [LiBr] = 2.70 m

b. Xm for LiBr = 0.1

c. 81% by mass CH₃CN

Explanation:

Solvent → Acetonitrile (CH₃CN)

Solute → LiBr, lithium bromide

We convert the moles of solute to mass → 1.80 mol . 86.84 g/1 mol = 156.3 g

This mass of solute is contained in 1L of solution

1 L = 1000 mL → 1mL = 1cm³

We determine solution mass by density

Solution density = Solution mass / Solution volume

Solution density . Solution volume = solution mass

0.824 g/cm³ . 1000 cm³ = 824 g

Mass of solution = 824 g (solvent + solute)

Mass of solute = 156.3 g

Mass of solvent = 824 g - 156.3 g = 667.7 g

Molality → Moles of solute in 1kg of solvent

We convert the mass of solvent from g to kg → 667.7 g . 1kg /1000g = 0.667 kg

Mol/kg → 1.80 mol / 0.667 kg = 2.70 m → molality

Mole fraction → Mole of solute / Total moles (moles solute + moles solvent)

Moles of solvent → 667.7 g . 1mol/ 41g = 16.3 moles

Total moles = 16.3 + 1.8 = 18.1

Mole fraction Li Br → 1.80 moles / 18.1 moles = 0.1

Mass percentage → (Mass of solvent, <u>in this case</u> / Total mass) . 100

<u>We were asked for the acetonitrile</u> → (667.7 g / 824 g) . 100 = 81%

How are a flashlight and lightening similar and how are they different?
grandymaker [24]
<span>A flashlight is an electric-powered light source; the light source is a light bulb or an LED. The electrical energy is converted into visible light. Flashlights can be hand-held or mounted to a platform. Light from a lighting, on the other hand, is formed by exciting electrons to a higher state. </span>

How is the pH of an acidic substance raised?
ch4aika [34]

Explanation:

An acid is a substance that produces excess hydroxonium ions in solution.

An acid based on the pH scale is a substance that has a low pH. Acid lies within a range of 1-7 on the pH scale.

  • A pH of 7 is for neutral compounds like water.
  • A pH greater that 7 is for basic compounds.
  • In order to raise the pH, we are driving at a substance becoming more neutral or basic.

This can be achieved by adding more base to the solution of the substance. When we add more base, hydroxyl ions will neutralize the excess hydroxonium ions and drag the pH towards that of neutrality.

Addition of more base can eventually make the substance basic.
