Answer: The molality of given acetic acid solution is 0.625 m.

Explanation:

Given: Moles of solute = 0.5 mol

Mass of solvent = 0.8 kg

Molality is the number of moles of solute present in a kg of solvent.

Therefore, molality of the given solution is calculated as follows.

$Molality = \frac{moles}{mass of solvent}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$Molality = \frac{moles}{mass of solvent}\\= \frac{0.5 mol}{0.8 kg}\\= 0.625 m$

Thus, we can conclude that the molality of given acetic acid solution is 0.625 m.

Ag+ and Pb+2 are two cations that are suggested as producing insoluble halide salts when studying salts containing the halide anions, cl- and br-. First, the charge's number is provided.

Neutral binary salts, also referred to as halide salts, are mixtures of metals and non-metals. The non-metal behaves in a reduced oxidation state at all times. They are the outcome of mixing a hydroxide and hydracid. halide salts of haloids are produced by the reaction of a hydroxide and a hydracid.

Ions are cations with positive charges. They emerge when the electrons of an elemental metal are lost. However, they don't lose any protons; they only lose one or more electrons. To denote a cation, the charge is superscripted following the element name or chemical formula.

A 0.4322 g sample of a potassium hydroxide – lithium hydroxide mixture requires 27.10 mL of 0.3565 M HCl for its titration to th

Yuki888 [10]

The mass percent lithium hydroxide in the mixture with potassium hydroxide, calculated from the equivalence point in the titration of HCl with the mixture, is 19.0%.

The mass percent of lithium hydroxide can be calculated with the following equation:

$\% = \frac{m_{LiOH}}{m_{t}} \times 100$ (1)

Where:

$m_{t} = m_{KOH} + m_{LiOH} = 0.4322 g$ (2)

We need to find the mass of LiOH.

From the titration, we can find the number of moles of the mixture since the number of moles of the acid is equal to the number of moles of the bases at the equivalence point.

$\eta_{HCl} = \eta_{LiOH} + \eta_{KOH}$
