A solution of ethanol (CH,CH,OH) and water that is 90.% ethanol by mass is boiling at 81.9 °C. The vapor is collected and cooled until it condenses to form a new solution. Calculate the percent by mass of ethanol in the new solution. Here's some data you may need: normal vapor pressure density boiling point at 81.9 °C g 0.79 mL ethanol 78. °C 865. torr 100. °C 1.00 mL 389. torr water Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. Note for advanced students: you may assume the solution and vapor above it are ideal. ?
Explain why calcium hydroxide (solubility 0.165 g per 10 g of water at 20 degrees C) is more soluble than magnesium hydroxide (solubility 0.0009 g per 100 g of water at 20 degrees C).
A dry-cleaning plant used carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) as a cleaning solvent until it was shut down because CCl4 was found to cause cancer and had been leaking into the groundwater. The plant owner offered to switch to liquified carbon dioxide instead and was allowed to reopen. Within 6 months cancer cases returned to normal. Explain whether the use of liquified carbon dioxide is a long term, safer environmental alternative to CCl4.
