Answer:

The total kinetic energy of moving particles of matter is called thermal energy. The thermal energy of matter depends on how fast its particles are moving on average, which is measured by temperature, and also on how many particles there are, which is measured by mass

What is the concentration of a solution containing 1.11 g sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11, MW = 342.3 g/mol, d = 1.587 g/cm3) in 432 m

djyliett [7]

Answer:

0.0075 M

0.0060 m

Explanation:

Our strategy here is to use the definition of molarity and molality to solve this question.

The molarity is the number of moles of solute, sucrose in this case, per liter of solution.

The molality is the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.

So the molarity of the solution is

M = moles of solute/ V solution

As we see we need the volume of solution since we are only given the volume of solvent, but this will be easy to compute since we have the density of sucrose.

So determine the moles of sucrose , and the volume of solution:

Moles sucrose = 1.11 g/342.3 g/mol = 3.24 x 10⁻³ M

Volume of solution = Vol Sucrose + Vol glycerine

d = m/V ⇒ Vsucrose = m / d = 1.11 g/ 1.587 g/cm³ = 0.70 cm³

Vol solution = 432 mL + 0.70 mL = 432.7 mL (1cm³ = 1 mL)

Vol solution = 432.7 mL x 1 L / 1000 mL = 0.4327 L

⇒ M = 3.2 x 10⁻³ mol / 0.4327 L = 0.0075 M

For the molarity what we need is to first calculate the kilograms of glycerine from the given density:

d = m/v ⇒ m = d x v = 1.261 g/cm³ x 432 cm³ = 544.75 g

Converting to Kg:

544.75 g x 1 Kg/ 1000 g = 0.544 kg

Now the molality is

m = mol sucrose/ kg solvent = 3.24 x 10⁻³ mol / 0.544 Kg = 0.0060 m

Note: In the calculation for volume of solution we could have approximated it to that of just glycerine, but since the density of sucrose was given we calculated the total volume of solution to be more rigorous.

Which of the following molecules experience dipole-dipole forces as its strongest IMF? A) H2 B) SO2 C) NH3 D) CF4 E) BCl3

Xelga [282]

Answer: $NH_3$

Explanation:

a) $H_2$ : This is a non polar covalent compound which are held by weak vanderwaal forces of attraction.

b) $SO_2$ : This is a covalent compound which is polar due to the presence of lone pair of electrons and are held by dipole-dipole forces of attraction.

c) $NH_3$ : These are joined by a special type of dipole dipole attraction called as hydrogen bond. It forms between electronegative nitrogen atom and hydrogen atom and is the strongest interaction.

d) $CF_4$ : This is a covalent compound and is non polar which are held by weak vanderwaal forces of attraction.

e) $BCl_3$ : This is a covalent compound and is non polar which are held by weak vander waal forces of attraction.

Using the periodic table entry of iron below, match the numbers with what they represent.

evablogger [386]

Answer:

Answers:

1. The number 26 ↔ atomic number

2. The number 56 ↔ mass number

3. The number 4 ↔ the number of orbits

4. The number 30 ↔ number of neutrons.

5. The number 14 ↔ number of electrons in n = 3

6. The number 2 ↔ number of valence electrons.

Explanation:

The same relevant information to deal with the data reported can be found in many periodic tables.

Herewith, I copy the mentioned entry. Please see the image attached.

This is the explanation of the information shown in the entry:

1) Symbol: in the centre of the picture: Fe. It is the symbol of iron.

2) Superscript to the lef of the symbol: 26. It is the atomic number, i.e. the number of protons. Hence, this is the first match:

1. The number 26 ↔ atomic number

3) The number 55.845 below the symbol and name of the element is the atomic mass of the element.

The atomic mass is the avereage mass of the several isotopes of the same element that exist in nature.

The particles that count for the atomic mass are the neutrons and protons, and that is reason of the called mass number, which is the sum of the neutrons and protons of a particular isotope.

An atomic mass of 55.845 means that likely there exist isotopes with mass number 56. This is, with a total number of 56 nucleons (protons and neutrons).

Since, as explained above, Fe has 26 protons, you can calcualte the number of neutrons of the 56 mass number isotope as: n = 56 - 26 = 30 neutrons.

Hence, you can match these:

2. The number 56 ↔ mass number

4. The number 30 ↔ number of neutrons

5. The numbers 2, 8, 14, and 2, that appear in the upper right corner of the image are the number of electrons in the different main energy levels, which is the principal quantum number (n)

They mean:

energy level (n) number of electrons

1 2

2 8

3 14

4 2

Hence you can match this:

5. The number 14 ↔ number of electrons in n = 3

6. The number 2 ↔ number of valence electrons

The valence electrons are the electrons in the last main energy level (here n = 4).

3. The number 4 ↔ the number of orbits

Note: orbits is not a good name for the energy levels, since orbits implies fixed paths around the nucleus and that is an overcome model.
