Answer:

 \frac{3}{2}

Explanation:

Given formula of Gypsum:

               CaSO₄. xH₂O,

       True formula:

              CaSO₄. 2H₂O,  x  = 2

Formula of plaster of paris  = CaSO₄. \frac{1}{2} H₂O,

               y  =  \frac{1}{2}

The difference between x and y; x - y:

               x  - y = 2 -  \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{3}{2}

An aqueous sodium acetate, NaC2H3O2 , solution is made by dissolving 0.395 mol NaC2H3O2 in 0.505 kg of water. Calculate the mola
liq [111]

<u>Answer:</u> The molality of NaC_2H_3O_2 solution is 0.782 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Molality is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per kilogram of solvent. The units of molarity are mol/kg. The formula used to calculate molality:

\text{Molality of solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Mass of solvent (in kg)}} .....(1)

Given values:

Moles of NaC_2H_3O_2 = 0.395 mol

Mass of solvent (water) = 0.505 kg

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Molality of }NaC_2H_3O_2=\frac{0.395mol}{0.505kg}\\\\\text{Molality of }NaC_2H_3O_2=0.782m

Hence, the molality of NaC_2H_3O_2 solution is 0.782 m

Which of the following solvent pairs could be used in a solvent pair recrystallization (in general, not for this specific reacti
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

(a) Ethyl acetate and hexane, and (c) methanol and methylene chloride.

Explanation:

re-crystallization is a technique used to purify solid compound.   Ethyl acetate and hexane are good solvent pair for recrystallization because they are miscible with each other due to their good differences in polarity. ethyl acetate has polarity of 77 while hexane has 68.

water and diethyl ether are not good solvent pair for recrystallization because water and diethyl ether are immiscible. They have very far polarity values. water has 100 while diethyl ether has 35

Explanation:

It is done by measuring the absorption spectrum produces by a star as a result of measuring Doppler's relative wavelength. The star with the lower speed must have lower absorption spectrum extent as compared to the faster one.
