All of the questions here are pertaining to the colligative properties of a solution and the preparation of solutions. Maybe, it would be best if you understand the equations to be used in order to answer these questions.<span>
Freezing point depression or Boiling point elevation:
</span><span>ΔT = -K (m) (i)
</span>ΔT is the change in the freezing point or the boiling point not the freezing point/boiling point. Therefore, it should be added to the original value of the property of the solvent.
<span>
K is a constant called the molal freezing point depression constant and for the boiling point is the boiling point elevation constant. It is a property of the solvent.
</span><span>
m is the concentration of the solute in the solvent in terms of molality or kg solute/kg solvent.
</span><span>
i is the vant hoff factor which will represent the number of ions which the solute dissociates when in solution.</span>
Answer:
5
Explanation:
NH4OH
The subscript gives the info that there are 4 hydrogen atoms but there is another H in the formula so you add them up.
The amount of energy required to change the temperature or phase of a reactant
<span>Tf is the freezing point of the solution(the solvent plus solute).
T*f is the freezing point of the pure solvent(without solute)
i is the van't Hoff factor.It is approximately the number of particles in solution that are made for each particle of the solute that is placed into solution.Therefore, for nonelectrolytes, i = 1.
Kf is the freezing point depression constant.For water, Kf = 1.86 Degree C/m, or 1.86 Degree C.kg/mol.
Tf is -1.58 Degree C</span>

Answer:</h3>
42960 years
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>We are given;</u>
- Remaining mass of C-14 in a bone is 0.3125 g
- Original mass of C-14 on the bone is 80.0 g
- Half life of C-14 is 5370 years
We are required to determine the age of the bone;
- Remaining mass = Original mass × 0.5^n , where n is the number of half lives.
Therefore;
0.3125 g = 80.0 g × 0.5^n
3.90625 × 10^-3 = 0.5^n
- Introducing logarithm on both sides;
log 3.90625 × 10^-3 = n log 0.5
Solving for n
n = log 3.90625 × 10^-3 ÷ log 0.5
= 8
- Therefore, the number of half lives is 8
- But, 1 half life is 5370 years
- Therefore;
Age of the rock = 5370 years × 8
= 42960 years
Thus, the bone is 42960 years old
