Identify the solute with the highest van't Hoff factor. And how do you determine which one is highest?

german

Answer : The correct option is, (A) $AlCl_3$

Explanation :

Van't Hoff factor : It is defined as the ratio of the experimental value of the colligative property to the calculated value of the colligative property.

We can determine the van't Hoff factor by the association and dissociation of the compound.

(A) $AlCl_3$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give aluminum ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of $AlCl_3$ will be,

$AlCl_3\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Al^{3+}+3Cl^{-}$ = 1 + 3 = 4

(B) $KI$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give potassium ion and iodide ion.

The dissociation of $KI$ will be,

$KI\rightarrow K^{+}+I^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $K^{+}+I^{-}$ = 1 + 1 = 2

(C) $CaCl_2$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give calcium ion and chloride ion.

The dissociation of $CaCl_2$ will be,

$CaCl_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Ca^{2+}+2Cl^{-}$ = 1 + 2 = 3

(D) $MgSO_4$

It is an electrolyte that dissociates to give magnesium ion and sulfate ion.

The dissociation of $MgSO_4$ will be,

$MgSO_4\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$

So, Van't Hoff factor = Number of solute particles = $Mg^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$ = 1 + 1 = 2

(E) Non-electrolyte

The dissociation non-electrolyte is not possible. So, the Van't Hoff factor will always be, 1.

Hence, the highest van't Hoff factor of solute is, $AlCl_3$

How are the four kinds of DNA nucleotides different from each other?

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose. ... Nucleotides in DNA contain four different nitrogenous bases: Thymine, Cytosine, Adenine, or Guanine. There are two groups of bases: Pyrimidines: Cytosine and Thymine each have a single six-member ring.

Why are the electrons in a nitrogen-phosphorus covalent bond not shared equally? which atom do the electrons spend more time aro

a_sh-v [17]

<span>Electrons in a nitrogen-phosphorus covalent bond are not shared equally because nitrogen and phosphorus do not have the same electronegativity. The atoms spend more time around the most electronegative atom nitrogen.</span>

What is true about protons within an atom?

Ira Lisetskai [31]

It defines the element. If you change the protons, you change the type of element. A proton is positively charged and is most of the mass of the atom, next to the neutron. Neutrons have a very very very slightly higher mass.
