Critical thinking : Place an unmagnetized piece of iron in a magnetic field (eg iron filings near a magnet). Why is it attracted

to the magnet?

Magnets attract iron due to the influence of their magnetic field upon the iron. Before a piece of iron enters the magnet, the polarization of the irons atoms is random. When exposed to the magnetic field, the atoms begin to align their electrons with the flow of the magnetic field, which makes the iron magnetized as well. This, in turn, creates an attraction between the two magnetized objects. This is why a piece of iron that is exposed to a magnet becomes magnetic for some time afterward.

Calculate the number of grams of sodium chloride in the solution. (Hint: Remember that sodium chloride is a strong electrolyte.)
creativ13 [48]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A solution contains 0.115 mol  H_2O and an unknown number of moles of sodium chloride. The vapor pressure of the solution at  30°C  is 25.7 torr. The vapor pressure of pure water at this temperature is 31.8 torr. Calculate the number of grams of sodium chloride in the solution. (Hint: Remember that sodium chloride is a strong electrolyte.)

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of sodium chloride in the solution is 0.714 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

The formula for relative lowering of vapor pressure will be:

\frac{p^o-p_s}{p^o}=i\times \chi_{\text{solute}}

where,  

p^o = vapor pressure of solvent (water) = 31.8 torr

p^s = vapor pressure of the solution = 25.7 torr

i = Van't Hoff factor = 2

\chi_{\text{solute}} = mole fraction of solute (sodium chloride) = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{31.8-25.7}{31.8}=2\times \chi_{NaCl}\\\\\chi_{NaCl}=0.0959

Mole fraction of a substance is calculated by using the equation:

\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}

\chi_{\text{NaCl}}=\frac{n_{\text{NaCl}}}{n_{\text{NaCl}}+n_{\text{water}}}

We are given:

Moles of water = 0.115 moles

0.0959=\frac{n_{\text{NaCl}}}{n_{\text{NaCl}}+0.115}\\\\n_{\text{NaCl}}=0.0122mol

To calculate the mass for given number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of NaCl = 0.0122 moles

Molar mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0122mol=\frac{\text{Mass of NaCl}}{58.5g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of NaCl}(0.0122mol\times 58.5g/mol)=0.714g

Hence, the mass of sodium chloride in the solution is 0.714 grams

How does wind develop
avanturin [10]
It is caused by differences in the atmospheric pressure. When a difference in atmospheric pressure exists, air moves from the higher to the lower pressure area, resulting in winds that vary in speed. On Earth, air is also deflected by the Coriolis effect, except exactly on the equator.
