The temperature that must be to freeze the solution would be -21.1 ° C.

<h3>How to calculate the freezing temperature of this solution?</h3>

To calculate the freezing temperature we must take into account the following information.

Solution with a salt concentration of 10% is frozen at -6°C
Solution with a salt concentration of 20% is frozen at -16°C
Solution with a higher concentration is frozen at -21.1°C

According to the above, it can be inferred that the puddle has a 50% concentration of salt because they had 12 kg of water and 6 kg of salt.

So the lowest freezing temperature would be 21.1°C because the puddle is 50% concentrated.

Note: This question is incomplete because there is some missing information. Here is the missing information:

A 10% salt solution freezes at about 20°F (-6°C), and a 20% solution freezes at 2°F (-16°C).
The lowest freezing point obtainable for salt solutions is −21.1 °C

Heating by direct contact between particles is called ____________

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

conduction

Explanation:

Conduction is the transfer of heat between substances that are in direct contact with each other. ... Conduction occurs when a substance is heated, particles will gain more energy, and vibrate more. These molecules then bump into nearby particles and transfer some of their energy to them.

How does the law of conservation of mass relate to the number of atoms of each element that are present before a reaction vs. th

TiliK225 [7]

The law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as system's mass cannot change, so quantity cannot be added nor removed. Hence, the quantity of mass is conserved over time.

The law implies that mass can neither be created nor destroyed, although it may be rearranged in space, or the entities associated with it may be changed in form. For example, in chemical reactions, the mass of the chemical components before the reaction is equal to the mass of the components after the reaction. Thus, during any chemical reaction and low-energy thermodynamic processes in an isolated system, the total mass of the reactants, or starting materials, must be equal to the mass of the products.

According to the Law of Conservation, all atoms of the reactant(s) must equal the atoms of the product(s).
As a result, we need to balance chemical equations. We do this by adding in coefficients to the reactants and/or products. The compound(s) itself/themselves DOES NOT CHANGE.

Calculate the molar solubility of CaF2 at 25°C in a solution that is 0.010 M in Ca(NO3)2. The Ksp for CaF2 is 3.9 x 10-11.

madreJ [45]

Answer:

$Molar \ solubility=3.12x10^{-5}M$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the dissociation of calcium fluoride:

$CaF_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2F^-$

The equilibrium expression is:

$Ksp=[Ca^{2+}][F^-]^2$

In such a way, via the ICE procedure, including an initial concentration of calcium of 0.01 M (due to the calcium nitrate solution), the reaction extent $x$ is computed as follows:

$3.9x10^{-11}=(0.01+x)(2*x)^2\\\\x=0.0000312M$

Thus, the molar solubility equals the reaction extent $x$ , therefore:

$Molar \ solubility=3.12x10^{-5}M$

Regards.
