When 136g of glycine are dissolved in of a certain mystery liquid , the freezing point of the solution is lower than the freezin
loris [4]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

When 136 g of glycine are dissolved in 950 g of a certain mystery liquid X, the freezing point of the solution is 8.2C lower than the freezing point of pure X. On the other hand, when 136 g of sodium chloride are dissolved in the same mass of X, the freezing point of the solution is 20.0C lower than the freezing point of pure X. Calculate the van't Hoff factor for sodium chloride in X.

Answer: The vant hoff factor for sodium chloride in X is 1.9

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=8.2^0C = Depression in freezing point

K_f = freezing point constant

i = vant hoff factor = 1 ( for non electrolyte)

m= molality =\frac{136g\times 1000}{950g\times 75.07g/mol}=1.9

8.2^0C=1\times K_f\times 1.9

K_f=4.32^0C/m

Now Depression in freezing point for sodium chloride is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=20.0^0C = Depression in freezing point

K_f = freezing point constant  

m= molality = \frac{136g\times 1000}{950g\times 58.5g/mol}=2.45

20.0^0C=i\times 4.32^0C\times 2.45

i=1.9

Thus vant hoff factor for sodium chloride in X is 1.9

Which solution below has the highest concentration of hydroxide ions?a. pH= 3.21b. pH= 7.00c. pH= 7.93d. pH= 12.59e. pH= 9.82
Sloan [31]

Answer:

  • <em>The solution that has the highest concentration of hydroxide ions is </em><u>d. pH = 12.59.</u>

Explanation:

You can solve this question using just some chemical facts:

  1. pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity: the higher the pH the lower the acidity and the higher the alkalinity.
  2. The higher the concentration of hydroxide ions the lower the acidity or the higher the alkalinity of the solution, this is the higher the pH.

Hence, since you are asked to state the solution with the highest concentration of hydroxide ions, you just pick the highest pH. This is the option d, pH = 12.59.

These mathematical relations are used to find the exact concentrations of hydroxide ions:

  • pH + pOH = 14 ⇒ pOH = 14 - pH

  • pOH = - log [OH⁻] ⇒ [OH^-]=10^{-pOH}

Then, you can follow these calculations:

Solution    pH        pOH                            [OH⁻]

a.               3.21       14 - 3.21 = 10.79        antilogarithm of 10.79 = 1.6 × 10⁻¹¹

b.               7.00      14 - 7.00 = 7.00        antilogarithm of 7.00 = 10⁻⁷

c.                7.93      14 - 7.93 = 6.07        antilogarithm of 6.07 = 8.5 × 10⁻⁷

d.               12.59     14 - 12.59 = 1.41        antilogarithm of 1.41 = 0.039

e.               9.82      14 - 9.82 = 4.18        antilogarithm of 4.18 = 6.6 × 10⁻⁵

From which you see that the highest concentration of hydroxide ions is for pH = 12.59.

For this question, the "entropy term" refers to "-TΔS". Addition reactions are generally favorable at low temperatures because _
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Lowering the temperature typically reduces the significance of the decrease in entropy. That makes the Gibbs Free energy of the reaction more negative. As a result, the reaction becomes more favorable overall.  

Explanation:

In an addition reaction there's a decrease in the number of particles. Consider the hydrogenation of ethene as an example.

\rm H_2C\text{=}CH_2\; (g) + H_2\; (g) \stackrel{\text{Ni}^\ast}{\to} H_3C\text{-}CH_3\; (g).

When \rm H_2 is added to \rm H_2C\text{=}CH_2 (ethene) under heat and with the presence of a catalyst, \rm H_3C\text{-}CH3 (ethane) would be produced.

Note that on the left-hand side of the equation, there are two gaseous molecules. However, on the right-hand side there's only one gaseous molecule. That's a significant decrease in entropy. In other words, \Delta S < 0.

The equation for the change in Gibbs Free Energy for a particular reaction is:

\Delta G = \Delta H + (\underbrace{- T \, \Delta S}_{\text{entropy}\atop \text{term}}).

For a particular reaction, the more negative \Delta G is, the more spontaneous ("favorable") the reaction would be.

Since typically \Delta S < 0 for addition reactions, the "entropy term" of it would be positive. That's not very helpful if the reaction needs to be favorable.

T (absolute temperature) is always nonnegative. However, lowering the temperature could help bring the value of
