Answer: 0.811m

Explanation: Molarity is the moles of solute present per kg of solvent.

Molar mass of C10H8 = . 128.17 g/mol

No. of moles = given mass/molar mass

11.2g C10H8 = 11.2/128.17 g/mol C10H8

= 0.0874 mol C10H8

NOW 107.8g solvent (chloroform) contains 0.0879 molecules (naphthalene)

1000g   ''    will contain (0.0879/107.8 x 1000) mole solute

= 0.811 mole

Molarity of the solution is 0.811 m (option A)

. In which reaction is nitric acid acting as an oxidising agent?
Talja [164]

Answer:

B. Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we should understand oxidizing agents as those substances able to increase the oxidation state of another substance, therefore, in B. reaction we notice that copper oxidation state at the beginning is zero (no bonds are formed) and once it reacts with nitric acid, its oxidation states raises to +2 in copper (II) nitrate, thus, in B. Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2 nitritc acid is acting as the oxidizing agent.

Moreover, in the other reactions, copper (A.), sodium (C. and D.) remain with the same initial oxidation state, +2 and +1 respectively.

Regards.
