Explanation:

As a substance melts, and goes from a solid to a liquid state, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases, and the molecules move faster, and they separate further and further away from each other. The intermolecluar forces holding the molecules together become weaker

A solution contains 72.0 g of HCI and 468 g of (C6H6). what is the mole fraction of benzene

erica [24]

<span>Molar mass (MM) of benzene C6H6
C = 6 * 12 = 72u
H = 6 * 1 = 6u
MM C6H6 = 72 + 6 = 78 g / mol
Benzene - Molar Mass = 78 g --------- 1 mol
Of A Mix has 468 g -------------- x

78x = 468
X = 468/78
X = 6 moles

Molar mass (MM) of Hydrochloric Acid HCl H = 1 * 1 = 1u
CI = 1 * 35 = 35u
MM HCl = 1 + 35 = 36 g / mol

Hydrochloric Acid - Molar Mass = 36 g ---------- 1 mol
Of A Mix has 72 g ------------ y

36y = 72
Y = 72/36
Y = 2 moles

Thus, a mixture has a total of 8 moles (6 mol + 2 mol).
Dividing One Mole Amount of Each Substance by the Number of Total Mole Amounts, Then we will obtain a Molar Fraction of Each:
Molar fraction make benzene = (6/8) simplify 2 = 3/4
Molar Fraction to make Hydrochloric Acid = (2/8) = simplify 2 = 1/4

Note:. The sum of the molar fractions of the always give goes 1, we have: 3/4 + 1/4 = 1

When an experimenter draws a conclusion that he assumes will apply to all situations set up similarly to his test situation, eve

Before making any observations, deductive reasoning relies on the formulation of a hypothesis and its subsequent substantiation.

<h3>Deductive reasoning: What does it mean?</h3>

Since the sentence states that "he assumes will apply to all instances," he is suggesting something before to carrying out any observation, which is the foundation of deductive reasoning.

A conclusion in deductive reasoning is based on the agreement of several premises that are typically taken to be true. Sometimes, top-down logic is used to describe deductive reasoning. Making logical assumptions is the foundation of deductive reasoning, which then bases a conclusion on those assumptions.

The primary distinction between inductive and deductive thinking is that the former tries to develop a hypothesis, whilst the latter aims to test an existing theory. From specific observations, inductive reasoning proceeds to
