A sample of glucose ( C6H12O6 ) of mass 8.44 grams is dissolved in 2.11 kg water. What is the freezing point of this solution? T
taurus [48]

Answer:

<em>- 0.0413°C ≅ - 0.041°C (nearest thousands).</em>

Explanation:

  • Adding solute to water causes the depression of the freezing point.

  • We have the relation:

<em>ΔTf = Kf.m,</em>

Where,

ΔTf is the change in the freezing point.

Kf is the freezing point depression constant (Kf = 1.86 °C/m).

m is the molality of the solution.

<em>Molality is the no. of moles of solute per kg of the solution.</em>

  • <em>no. of moles of solute (glucose) = mass/molar mass</em> = (8.44 g)/(180.156 g/mol) = <em>0.04685 mol.</em>

<em>∴ molality (m) = no. of moles of solute/kg of solvent</em> = (0.04685 mol)/(2.11 kg) = <em>0.0222 m.</em>

∴ ΔTf = Kf.m = (1.86 °C/m)(0.0222 m) = 0.0413°C.

<em>∴ The freezing point of the solution = the freezing point of water - ΔTf </em>= 0.0°C - 0.0413°C = <em>- 0.0413°C ≅ - 0.041°C (nearest thousands).</em>

What is the difference between a pure solvent and a solution? Do they have the same physical properties?
pychu [463]

Answer:

The physical properties of a solution are different from those of the pure solvent. ... Colligative properties are those physical properties of solutions of nonvolatile solutes that depend only on the number of particles present in a given amount of solution, not on the nature of those particles.

If 12.5 grams of the original sample of cesium-137 remained after 90.6 years, what was the mass of the original sample?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Mass of original sample = 100 g

Explanation:

Half life of cesium-137 = 30.17 years

t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{\ln2}{30.17}\ year^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 0.02297 year⁻¹

Time = 90.6 years

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Initial concentration [A_0] = ?

Final concentration [A_t] = 12.5 grams

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

12.5\ g=[A_0]e^{-0.02297\times 90.6}

[A_0]=\frac{12.5}{e^{-0.02297\times 90.6}}\ g=100\ g

<u>Mass of original sample = 100 g</u>
