- 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?arrow_forwardConsider two hypothetical pure substances, AB(s) and XY(s). When equal molar amounts of these substances are placed in separate 500-mL samples of water, they undergo the following reactions: AB(s)A+(aq)+B(aq)XY(s)XY(aq) a Which solution would you expect to have the lower boiling point? Why? b Would you expect the vapor pressures of the two solutions to be equal? If not, which one would you expect to have the higher vapor pressure? c Describe a procedure that would make the two solutions have the same boiling point. d If you took 250 mL of the AB(aq) solution prepared above, would it have the same boiling point as the original solution? Be sure to explain your answer. e The container of XY(aq) is left out on the bench top for several days, which allows some of the water to evaporate from the solution. How would the melting point of this solution compare to the melting point of the original solution?arrow_forwardWhich of the following will have the lowest total vapor pressure at 25C? a. pure water (vapor pressure = 23.8 torr at 25C) b. a solution of glucose in water with C6H12O6=0.01 c. a solution of sodium chloride in water with NaCl = 0.01 d. a solution of methanol in water with CH3OH=0.2 (Consider the vapor pressure of both methanol [143 torr at 25C] and water.)arrow_forward
- What is the usual solubility behavior of an ionic compound in water when the temperature is raised? Give an example of an exception to this behavior.arrow_forwardVodka is advertised to be 80 proof. That means that the ethanol (C2H5OH) concentration is 40% (two significant figures) by volume. Assuming the density of the solution to be 1.0 g/mL, what is the freezing point of vodka? The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/mL.arrow_forwardThe vapor pressure of methanol, CH3OH, is 94 torr at 20 C. The vapor pressure of ethanol, C2H5OH, is 44 torr at the same temperature. (a) Calculate the mole fraction of methanol and of ethanol in a solution of 50.0 g of methanol and 50.0 g of ethanol. (b) Ethanol and methanol form a solution that behaves like an ideal solution. Calculate the vapor pressure of methanol and of ethanol above the solution at 20 C.arrow_forward
- A forensic chemist is given a white solid that is suspected of being pure cocaine (C17H21NO4, molar mass = 303.35 g/mol). She dissolves 1.22 0.01 g of the solid in 15.60 0.01 g benzene. The freezing point is lowered by 1.32 0.04C. a. What is the molar mass of the substance? Assuming that the percent uncertainty in the calculated molar mass is the same as the percent uncertainty in the temperature change, calculate the uncertainty in the molar mass. b. Could the chemist unequivocally state that the substance is cocaine? For example, is the uncertainty small enough to distinguish cocaine from codeine (C18H21NO3, molar mass = 299.36 g/mol)? c. Assuming that the absolute uncertainties in the measurements of temperature and mass remain unchanged, how could the chemist improve the precision of her results?arrow_forwardYou have read that adding a solute to a solvent can both increase the boiling point and decrease the freezing point. A friend of yours explains it to you like this: The solute and solvent can be like salt in water. The salt gets in the way of freezing in that it blocks the water molecules from joining together. The salt acts like a strong bond holding the water molecules together so that it is harder to boil. What do you say to your friend?arrow_forwardA water solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is used as laundry bleach. The concentration of sodium hypochlorite is 0.75 m. Express this concentration as a mole fraction.arrow_forward
