Answer: Physical property
Explanation: length and dimensions are under physical properties of matter.
A solution is prepared by adding 1.43 mol of potassium chloride (kcl) to 889 g of water. The concentration of kcl is 1.61 molal.
mol of Kcl (potassium chloride)= 1.43
water = 889 g
the formula for calculating molality is:
molality = moles of solute/kilograms of solvent
1kg = 1000g so, 889g = 0.889kg
m = 1.43/0.889 = 1.61 molal
The volume of a gas is the same as its CONTAINER.
Gases generally has no shape and no definite volume. When a gas is placed in a container, the gas usually takes the shape and the volume of the container, that is, the gas fills up all the available spaces in the container. Thus, the volume of a gas will always be the same as its container. This is in contrast with solids, which have definite shape and volume and liquids, which have definite volume but no fixed shape.
We will use boiling point formula:
ΔT = i Kb m
when ΔT is the temperature change from the pure solvent's boiling point to the boiling point of the solution = 77.85 °C - 76.5 °C = 1.35
and Kb is the boiling point constant =5.03
and m = molality
i = vant's Hoff factor
so by substitution, we can get the molality:
1.35 = 1 * 5.03 * m
∴ m = 0.27
when molality = moles / mass Kg
0.27 = moles / 0.015Kg
∴ moles = 0.00405 moles
∴ The molar mass = mass / moles
= 2 g / 0.00405 moles
= 493.8 g /mol
