Answer:
The amount of heat absorbed is <u>5.183889 kJ</u> .
Explanation:
In conversion of water to ice it rejects some heat while in conversion of ice to water it absorbs heat which is called latent heat which is given as 6.02 kJ/mol.
The amount of ice given is 15.5 g.
Converting it to moles as the latent heat is given in per moles:
Molecular mass of Hydrogen (H) and Oxygen (O) is 1 u and 16 u respectively.
Molecular mass of water is 18 g ( 
⇒ 2*1+16=18 ).
mole = 15.5/18 ≈ 0.8611 moles
Therefore the amount of heat absorbed by 15.5 g of ice ( 0.8611 moles) = <em>Latent heat * moles
</em>
Heat absorbed = 6.02*0.8611
= 6.02*(15.5/18)
≈ 5.183889 kJ
For the equation to balance out, you would need 2 H2O on the product. That will give a total of 1 Carbon, 4 Hydrogens and 4 Oxygens on each side.
Most acidic: solution B, pH = 1
Most Basic: solution C, pH = 13
Least acidic: solution A, pOH = 1
The hypothesis is that salt water freezes faster than fresh water.
The dependent variable is time taken for ice to appear.
The independent variable is presence or absence of salt
The constants are the amount of water in each tray, freezing conditions and length of time of exposure to freezing condition.
The control group is the tray to which salt was not added
The experimental group is the tray to which salt was added
The presence of solutes in a solution causes the freezing point depression.
A solution is made up of a solute and a solvent. In the presence of a solute, the freezing point of a pure solvent is decreased. This is because freezing point is a colligative property.
Colligative properties depend on the amount of solute present.
Hence, the pure water freezes faster (ice begin to appear earlier) than the salt water.
The hypothesis put forward in this experiment was found to be invalid by the experiment.
