Explain why solutions of HBr in benzene (a nonpolar solvent) are nonconductive, while solutions in water (a polar solvent) are conductive.

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is commonly used to melt ice on roads during the winter. Calcium chloride (CaCl2) is sometimes used for this purpose too. Let us compare the effectiveness of equal masses of these two compounds in lowering the freezing point of water, by calculating the freezing point depression of solutions containing 200. g of each salt in 1.00 kg of water. (An advantage of CaCl2 is that it acts more quickly because it is hygroscopic, that is. it absorbs moisture from the air to give a solution and begin the process. A disadvantage is that this compound is more costly.)

Table sugar (C12H22O11) or urea [(NH2)2CO] can be used by road crews to melt ice on roads, but solutions of CaCl2 are generally used instead. Assuming equal costs per pound of substance, why is CaCl2 used instead of table sugar or urea?

Calculate the percent by mass of solute in each of the following solutions. 5.00 g of calcium chloride dissolved in 95.0 g of water 1.00 g of calcium chloride dissolved in 19.0 g of water 15.0 g of calcium chloride dissolved in 285 g of water 2.00 mg of calcium chloride dissolved in 0.0380 g of water

Concentrated hydrochloric acid contains 1.00 mol HCl dissolved in 3.31 mol H2O. What is the mole fraction of HCl in concentrated hydrochloric acid? What is the molal concentration of HCl?

What is the difference between a 1 M solution and a 1 m solution?

The Henry's law constant for the solubility of argon gas in water is 1.0103M/atm at 30C. (a) Express the constant in M/mm Hg. (b) If the partial pressure of argon gas at 30C is 693 mm Hg, what is the concentration (in M) of the dissolved argon gas at 30C? (c) How many grams of argon gas can be dissolved in 29 L of water at 693 mm Hg and 30C? (Ignore the partial pressure of water.)

6-22 Answer true or false. (a) Water is a good solvent for ionic compounds because water is a polar liquid. (b) Small covalent compounds dissolve in water if they can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. (c) The solubility of ionic compounds in water generally increases as temperature increases. (d) The solubility of gases in liquids generally increases as temperature increases. (e) Pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids in liquids. (f) Pressure has a major effect on the solubility of gases in liquids. (g) In general, the greater the pressure of a gas over water, the greater the solubility of the gas in water. (h) Oxygen, O2, is insoluble in water.

How do 0.5M and 2.0M aqueous solutions of NaCl differ?
