Answer 1

Answer:

(a) [tex]m=2.69m[/tex]

(b) [tex]x_{LiBr}=0.099[/tex]

(c) [tex]\% LiBr=18.9\%[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the molality in mol/L, we can compute the required units of concentration assuming a 1-L solution of acetonitrile and lithium bromide that has 1.80 moles of lithium bromide:

(a) For the molality, we first compute the grams of lithium bromide in 1.80 moles by using its molar mass:

[tex]m_{LiBr}=1.80mol*\frac{86.845 g}{1mol}=156.32g[/tex]

Next, we compute the mass of the solution:

[tex]m_{solution}=1L*0.826\frac{g}{mL}*\frac{1000mL}{1L}=826g[/tex]

Then, the mass of the solvent (acetonitrile) in kg:

[tex]m_{solvent}=(826g-156.32g)*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=0.670kg[/tex]

Finally, the molality:

[tex]m=\frac{1.80mol}{0.670kg} \\\\m=2.69m[/tex]

(b) For the mole fraction, we first compute the moles of solvent (acetonitrile):

[tex]n_{solvent}=669.68g*\frac{1mol}{41.05 g} =16.31mol[/tex]

Then, the mole fraction of lithium bromide:

[tex]x_{LiBr}=\frac{1.80mol}{1.80mol+16.31mol}\\ \\x_{LiBr}=0.099[/tex]

(c) Finally, the mass percentage with the previously computed masses:

[tex]\% LiBr=\frac{156.32g}{826g}*100\%\\ \\\% LiBr=18.9\%[/tex]

Regards.

At 25 oC, the rate constant for the first-order decomposition of a pesticide solution is 6.40 x 10-3 min-1. If the starting concentration of pesticide is 0.0314 M, what concentration will remain after 62.0 minutes at 25 oC? 3.12 x 10-2 M 47.4 M 2.11 x 10-2 M 4.67 x 10-2 M 8.72 M

Answers

Answer:

[tex]2.11\ * 10^{-2}[/tex]  is the correct answer to the given question.

Explanation:

Given k=6.40 x 10-3 min-1.

According to the first order reaction .

The concentration of time can be written as

[tex][\ A\ ]\ = \ [\ A_{0}\ ] * e \ ^\ {-kt}[/tex]

Here [tex][\ A\ ]_{0}[/tex] = Initial concentration.

So  [tex][\ A\ ]_{0}= 0.0314 M[/tex]

Putting this value into the above equation.

[tex]0.0314 \ *\ e^{6.40 x 10^{-3} \ * \ 62.0 }[/tex]

=0.211 M

This can be written as

[tex]=\ 2.11 *\ 10^{-2}[/tex]

Which diagram represents this molecule?

Answer:

  C

Explanation:

The molecule has 8 carbon atoms joined by 7 C-C bonds.

The first two diagrams show 6 carbon atoms, not 8.

The last two diagrams show line segments representing C-C bonds. Only choice C shows 7 such segments.

The appropriate choice is C.

Explanation:

A Carbon-10 nucleus has 6 protons and 4 neutrons. Through radioactive beta decay, it turns into a Boron-10 nucleus, with 5 protons and 5 neutrons, plus another particle. What kind of additional particle, if any, is produced during this decay

Answers

Answer:

No additional particle was produced during the decay.

Explanation:

The equation of decay is given as;

¹⁰₆C  + ⁰₋₁ e → ¹⁰₅B + x

To identify x, we have to calculate its atomic and mass number.

In the reactants side;

Atomic Number = 6 + (-1) = 5

Mass number = 10 + 0 = 10

In the products side;

Atomic Number = 5 + x

Mass Number = 10 + x

Generally, reactant = product

Atomic Number;

5 = 5 + x

x = 5 - 5 = 0

Mass Number;

10 = 10 + x

x = 10 - 10 = 0

This means no additional particle was produced during the decay.

Ethanol, , boils at 78.29 °C. How much energy, in joules, is required to raise the temperature of 2.00 kg of ethanol from 26.0 °C to the boiling point and then to change the liquid to vapor at that temperature? (The specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol is 2.44 J/g ∙ K, and its enthalpy of vaporization is 855 J/g.)

Answers

Answer:

THE HEAT REQUIRED TO CHANGE 2 KG OF ETHANOL FROM 26 °C TO THE BOILING POINT AND TO VAPOR AT THAT TEMPERATURE IS 1965.175 KJ.

Explanation:

Boiling point of ethanol = 78.29 °C = 78.29 + 273 K = 351.29 K

Mass = 2 kg = 2000 g

Final temp. = 26.0 °C = 26 + 273 K= 299 K

Change in temperature = (78.29 - 26) °C = 52.29 °C

1. Heat required to raise the temperature from 26 °C to the boiling point?

Heat = mass * specific heat * change in temperature

Heat = 2000 * 2.44 * 52.29

Heat = 255 175.2 J

2. Heat required to change the liquid to vapor at that temperature?

Heat = mass * enthalphy of vaporization

Heat = 2000 * 855

Heat =1 710000 J

The total heat required to raise the temperature of 2 kg of ethanol from 26 °C to the boiling point and then to change the liquid to vapor at that temperature will be:

Heat = mcT + m Lv

Heat = 255 175.2 J + 1710000 J

Heat = 1965175.2 J

Heat = 1965.175 kJ of heat.

(a) Titration curve for the titration of 5.00 mL 0.010 M NaOH(aq) with 0.005 M HCl(aq), indicating the pH of the initial and final solutions and the pH at the stoichiometric point.


What volume of HCl has been added at

(b) the stoichiometric point

(c) the halfway point of the titration?

Answers

Answer:

AT STOICHIOMETRIC POINT, THE VOLUME OF ACID ADDED IS 0.01 L

AT HALF-WAY POINT, THE VOLUME OF ACID IS 0.0050 L

Explanation:

In solving titration problems, you must remember this formula;

MaVa = MbVb

Since M a= 0.005 M

Mb = 0.010 M

Vb = 5 mL = 5 /1000 = 0.005 L

Va = unknown.

Solving for Va, we have:

Va = MbVb / Ma

Va = 0.010 * 0.005 / 0.005

Va = 0.01 L

So therefore, the volume of acid added at:

1. the stoichiometric point is 0.01 L

2. half-way point of titration is 0.01 /2 = 0.0050 L

For the pH:

Since HCl is a strong acid, it dissociate into {H30}+ ion.

First calculate the number of moles of hydronium ion

number of mole = concentration of hydronium ion {H30}+ * Volume

n = 0.005 * 0.01  = 0.00005 moles

A. At initial point of the titration, the volume of base added is 0 L

{H30]+ = n(H+)/ V = 0.00005 / 0.01 = 0.005 M

pH  = - log {0.005}

pH = 2.3

B. At the final point, since the volumes and concentrations of acid and base are the same, the pH is equal to 7.

n(H+) = n(OH^-)

pH = 7

For the given reactions, considering the definition of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalyst, we can identify that is each catalyst behave as follows:

-  Platinum acts as a heterogeneous catalyst in the hydrogenation of ethylene as all the reactants are gaseous but it remains solid.

- CFCs act as homogeneous catalysts in the conversion of ozone to oxygen gas as it remains gaseous as well as both ozone and oxygen.
