Answer:

CH2O and C6H12O6

Explanation:

To find an empirical formula, take a molecular formula and divide the subscript of each element by the greatest common factor of all the subscripts. In this case, the only pair that works is CH2O,C6H12O6, which can be verified by dividing the coefficients of the molecular formula by 6.

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

"sodium hydroxide is a strong base because it absorbs more" ____________ ions than weak bases.

Hunter-Best [27]

The answer is: absorbs more H (protons) ions.

- The Sodium hydroxide NaOH ionizes completely when dissolved in water.
- For every mole of sodium hydroxide that you dissolve you get 1 mole of hydroxide anions.
