A solution of 0.85 g of an organic compound in 100.0 g of benzene has a freezing point of 5.16°C. What are the molality of the s

olution and the molar mass of the solute?

The molar mass of the solute(organic compound)=128.012 g/mol

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Solution properties are the properties of a solution that don't depend on the type of solute but only on the concentration of the solute.  

Solutions from volatile substances have a higher boiling point and lower freezing points than the solvent  

For freezing point can be formulated

\tt \Delta T_f=K_f.m

K = molal freezing point constant  

m = molal solution  

ΔT for solution (freezing point for Benzene = 5.5 °C) :

\tt \Delta T_f=5.5-5.16=0.34

  • molality of solution (m) :

\tt m=\dfrac{\Delta T_f}{K_f}\rightarrow K_f~for~Benzene=5.12^oC/m\\\\m=\dfrac{0.34}{5.12}=0.0664

  • mol of organic compound :

molal  : the number of moles of solute in 1 kg of solvent  

\tt 0.0664=\dfrac{mol}{0.1~kg~benzene}\\\\mol=0.0664\times 0.1=0.00664

  • the molar mass of the solute(organic compound)

mass of organic compound = 0.85 g

\tt MW=\dfrac{mass}{mol}=\dfrac{0.85}{0.00664}=128.012~g/mol

What do the coefficients in front of the reactants and products in a chemical reaction represent ?
makvit [3.9K]

It indicates the number of moles of reactants and products

Explanation:

The coefficients in front of the reactants and products in a chemical reaction represents the number of moles of reactants and products.

Every reaction is made up of equal number of moles of reactants and products. Thus, chemical equations are written in such a way to obey the law of conservation of matter.

The numbers used are usually whole numbers and the are very important in stoichiometry.

Explain some of the benefits and problem associated with the pesticide DDT.
Dafna1 [17]

Some benefits are that DDT helps us grow crops and keeps pests off our crops.

But DDT is harmful to the environment. If it gets into the water ways then if can harm fish and animals that eat the fish such as birds.

Chloroform is a liquid once used for anesthetic. What is the volume of 5.0 g of chloroform? The density of chloroform 1.49 g/mL
mario62 [17]

Answer:

3.3557047 mL

Explanation:

The density can be found using the following formula:

d=\frac{m}{v}

Let's rearrange the formula to find the volume, v.

d*v=\frac{m}{v}*v

d*v=m

\frac{d*v}{d} =\frac{m}{d}

v=\frac{m}{d}

The volume can be found by dividing the mass by the density. The mass of the chloroform is 5 grams and the density is 1.49 grams per milliliter. Therefore,

m= 5g \\d= 1.49 g/mL

Substitute the values into the formula.

v=\frac{5g}{1.49 g/mL}

Divide. When we divide, the grams, or g, in the numerator and denominator will cancel out.

v= \frac{5}{1.49}mL

v=3.3557047 mL

The volume of 5 grams of chloroform is 3.3557047 milliliters

A voltaic cell is created by using a copper cathode and a magnesium anode. The cathode is immersed in a solution of Cu2 ions, an
Vikki [24]

Answer:

As the reaction proceeds in the given voltaic cell, the Na₂SO₄ present in the salt bridge will dissociate into Na⁺ and SO₄²⁻ ions. As the copper ions in the solution are being deposited on the copper cathode as neutral copper atoms, the solution will become more negative, therefore the Na⁺ ions in the salt bridge will migrate into the the solution in order to maintain electrical neutrality. At the anode, as the Mg metal dissolve into the solution as Mg⁺² ions, the  solution will tend to become more positive. Therefore, the SO₄²⁻ ions present in the salt bridge will migrate into the solution in order to maintain electrical neutrality.

Explanation:

A voltaic or galvanic cell is an example of an electrochemical cell.

An electrochemical cell is a device that produces an electric current from chemical reactions occuring within it.

Electrochemical cells have two electrodes; the anode and the cathode. The anode is defined as the electrode where oxidation occurs while the cathode is the electrode where reduction occurs.

The voltaic cell uses two different metal electrodes each immersed in an electrolyte solution. The two electrodes are connected to each other by means of a wire which allows the flow of electrons from the anode to the cathode. The electrolytes are connected by means of a salt bridge which is a junction that connects the electrolytic solution in the anode and cathode compartment. The salt bridge usually consists of a strong electrolyte like NaCl, KCl, Na₂SO₄, etc.

The electrolyte in the salt bridge serves two purposes: it completes the circuit by providing a path for electron flow and it maintains electrical neutrality in both solutions by allowing ions to migrate between them.

As the reaction proceeds in the given voltaic cell above, the Na₂SO₄ present in the salt bridge will dissociate into Na⁺ and SO₄²⁻ ions. As the copper ions in the solution are being deposited on the copper cathode as neutral copper atoms, the solution will become more negative, therefore the Na⁺ ions in the salt bridge will migrate into the the solution in order to maintain electrical neutrality. Also, at the anode, as the Mg metal dissolve into the solution as Mg⁺² ions, the  solution will tend to become more positive. Therefore, the SO₄²⁻ ions present in the salt bridge will migrate into the solution in order to maintain electrical neutrality.
