Answer:

m= 1.84 m

M= 1.79 M

mole fraction (X) =

Xsolute= 0.032

Xsolvent = 0.967

Explanation:

1. Find the grams of FeCl3 in the solution: when we have a mass % we assume that there is 100 g of solution so 24% means 24 g of FeCl3 in the solution. The rest 76 g are water.

2. For molality we have the formula m= moles of solute / Kg solvent

so first we pass the grams of FeCl3 to moles of FeCl3:

24 g of FeCl3x(1 mol FeCl3/162.2 g FeCl3) = 0.14 moles FeCl3

If we had 76 g of water we convert it to Kg:

76 g water x(1 Kg of water/1000 g of water) = 0.076 Kg of water

now we divide m = 0.14 moles FeCl3/0.076 Kg of water

m= 1.84 m

3. For molarity we have the formula M= moles of solute /L of solution

the moles we already have 0.14 moles FeCl3

the (L) of solution we need to use the density of the solution to find the volume value. For this purpose we have: 100 g of solution and the density d= 1.280 g/mL

The density formula is d = (m) mass/(V) volume if we clear the unknown value that is the volume we have that (V) volume = m/d

so V = 100 g / 1.280 g/mL = 78.12 mL = 0.078 L

We replace the values in the M formula

M= 0.14 moles of FeCl3/0.078 L

M= 1.79 M

3. Finally the mole fraction (x)  has the formula

X(solute) = moles of solute /moles of solution

X(solvent) moles of solvent /moles of solution

X(solute) + X(solvent) = 1

we need to find the moles of the solvent and we add the moles of the solute like this we have the moles of the solution:

76 g of water x(1 mol of water /18 g of water) = 4.2 moles of water

moles of solution = 0.14 moles of FeCl3 + 4.2 moles of water = 4.34 moles of solution

X(solute) = 0.14 moles of FeCl3/4.34 moles of solution = 0.032

1 - X(solute) = 1 - 0.032 = 0.967

A teacher performs a flame test lab experiment for various compounds. During the lab, the teacher mislabels one of the solutions
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: By performing the flame test

Explanation:

The flame test can be performed by the teacher to visually identify the substance in the solution. The metals give a characteristic color on burning. The heat of the flame causes the excitation of the electrons present in the metal ions this leads to release of energy along with the emission of visible wavelength of light. This visible light can be observed by human eye. For example, the copper produces the blue color in flame, barium gives green flame, and sodium gives yellow flame.

How do you know if a chemical reaction is balanced ?
Alenkasestr [34]

Hey there!

We know that a chemical reaction is balanced when there is the same amount of each element on both sides of the equation.

According to the law of conservation of mass, matter cannot be created or destroyed, so we must have the same amount of each element on each side of a chemical equation.

We count the amount of each element on each side, and the products should have the same number as the reactants.

Hope this helps!

The reaction A → products is first order. If the initial concentration of A is 0.646 M and, after 72.8 seconds have elapsed, the
mario62 [17]

Answer: 0.00867 moldm-3

Explanation:

Since the reaction is 1st order,

Rate of reaction=∆[A]÷t

0.646-0.0146/72.8= 0.00867

Remember that in a first order reaction, the rate of reaction depends on change in the concentration of only one of the reaction species, A in the problem above.

28 grams of Al react with 30 Oxygen gas (O2) to produce Al Oxide (Al2O3). How many grams of Al Oxide will be produced
Kamila [148]

Answer:

58

Explanation:

Due to conservation of energy, the sum of the reactants = the sum of the products. So 28 + 30 = 58g
