Al wonders if adding salt to water will affect how long it takes the water to

Chemistry

The hypothesis is that salt water freezes faster than fresh water.

The dependent variable is time taken for ice to appear.

The independent variable is presence or absence of salt

The constants are the amount of water in each tray, freezing conditions and length of time of exposure to freezing condition.

The control group is the tray to which salt was not added

The experimental group is the tray to which salt was added

The presence of solutes in a solution causes the freezing point depression.

A solution is made up of a solute and a solvent. In the presence of a solute, the freezing point of a pure solvent is decreased. This is because freezing point is a colligative property.

Colligative properties depend on the amount of solute present.

Hence, the pure water freezes faster (ice begin to appear earlier) than the salt water.

The hypothesis put forward in this experiment was found to be invalid by the experiment.

For more about colligative properties, see

Which of the following substances is most likely to be a liquid at room temperature?
FromTheMoon [43]

The answer is: hydrogen peroxide, H2O2.

H₂O₂(hydrogen peroxide) is pale blue, clear, inorganic liquid.

It is liquid because hydrogen bonds between molecules.

Hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between two polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen atom (H), covalently bound to a highly electronegative atom such as flourine (F), oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) atoms.

Because of hydrogen bonds, hydrogen peroxide has higher melting and boiling temperatures than other molecules.

Which step will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
In order to <span>decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container, you need to decrease the temperature of the container. The volume of the system is rigid so it means volume is constant. By the ideal gas law, temperature and pressure are directly related. Increasing the temperature, increases the pressure and the opposite to happens.</span>

. Determine the standard free energy change, ɔ(G p for the formation of S2−(aq) given that the ɔ(G p for Ag+(aq) and Ag2S(s) are
olga nikolaevna [1]

<u>Answer:</u> The standard free energy change of formation of S^{2-}(aq.) is 92.094 kJ/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

K_{sp}\text{ of }Ag_2S=8\times 10^{-51}

Relation between standard Gibbs free energy and equilibrium constant follows:

\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K

where,

\Delta G^o = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

R = Gas constant = 8.314J/K mol

T = temperature = 25^oC=[273+25]K=298K

K = equilibrium constant or solubility product = 8\times 10^{-51}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta G^o=-(8.314J/K.mol)\times 298K\times \ln (8\times 10^{-51})\\\\\Delta G^o=285793.9J/mol=285.794kJ

For the given chemical equation:

Ag_2S(s)\rightleftharpoons 2Ag^+(aq.)+S^{2-}(aq.)

The equation used to calculate Gibbs free change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(reactant)}]

The equation for the Gibbs free energy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta G^o_f_{(Ag^+(aq.))})+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))})]-[(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(Ag_2S(s))})]

We are given:

\Delta G^o_f_{(Ag_2S(s))}=-39.5kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{(Ag^+(aq.))}=77.1kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o=285.794kJ

Putting values in above equation, we get:

285.794=[(2\times 77.1)+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))})]-[(1\times (-39.5))]\\\\\Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))=92.094J/mol

Hence, the standard free energy change of formation of S^{2-}(aq.) is 92.094 kJ/mol
