Answer:
a) Unsaturated
b) Supersaturated
c) Unsaturated
Explanation:
A saturated solution contains the <u>maximum amount of a solute that will dissolve in a given solvent at a specific temperature</u>.
An unsaturated solution contains <u>less solute than it has the capacity to dissolve. </u>
A supersaturated solution, <u>contains more solute than is present in a saturated solution</u>. Supersaturated solutions are not very stable. In time, some of the solute will come out of a supersaturated solution as crystals.
According to these definitions and considering that the solubility of KCl in 100 mL of H₂O at <u>20 °C is 34 g</u>, and at <u>50 °C is 43 g</u> we can label the solutions:
a) 30 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 20 °C ⇒ unsaturated
b) 65 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 50 °C ⇒ supersaturated
c) 42 g in 100 mL of H₂O at 50 °C and slowly cooling to 20 °C to give a clear solution <u>with no precipitate</u> ⇒ unsaturated (if it were saturated it would have had precipitate)
Answer:
C. Tip had the lower pressure, it was 652.71mmHg
Explanation:
To answer this question you need to convert both values into a common unit so you can compare directly.
87kPa = 652.71 mmHg
Answer:a lightbulb burning
Explanation:
Apex
Nonane (b) has the highest melting point.
-----------------------------
A caveat: I'm assuming that we're dealing with the straight-chain isomers of these alkanes (specifically pentane and nonane). The straight-chain isomer of pentane (<em>n</em>-pentane, CH3-[CH2]3-CH3) has a melting point of -129.8 °C; the straight-chain isomer of nonane (<em>n-</em>nonane, CH3-[CH2]7-CH3) has a melting point of -53.5 °C. The pattern holds as you go down (or up): The more carbon atoms, the higher the melting point. So, in decreasing order of melting points here, you'd have the following: nonane > pentane > butane > ethane.
However, one structural isomer of pentane, neopentane, has a melting point of -16.4 °C, which is <em>higher </em>that the melting point of <em>n</em>-nonane despite neopentane having the same molecular formula as its straight-chain isomer. Of course, you're not to blame for coming up with this question; this is just some extra info to keep in mind.
