Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Whether sodium permanganate is a strong, weak or non-electrolyte is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The electrolyte is the substance that produces ions when it is dissolved in a polar solvent. It breaks into positively and negatively charged ions that spread uniformly through the solvent. The electrolytic solution, as a whole, is electrically neutral. Sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium phosphate are some of the examples of electrolytes.
Strong electrolytes are those electrolytes that completely dissociates into its ions. These have a very high value of electrical conductance. Sodium chloride and potassium chloride are strong electrolytes.
Weak electrolytes are those electrolytes that partially dissociates into its ions. They are poor conductors of electricity. Acetic acid and carbonic acid are weak electrolytes.
Non-electrolytes are the substances that don’t dissociate into ions when they are dissolved in any solvent. They don’t conduct electricity. Urea, benzene, chloroform are non-electrolytes.

Draw and label all possible isomers for [M(py)3(DMSO)2(CI)] (py = pyridine, DMSO dimethylsulfoxide).arrow_forwardThe emission data in cps displayed in Table 1 is reported to two decimal places by the chemist. However, the instrument output is shown in Table 2. Table 2. Iron emission from ICP-AES Sample Blank Standard Emission, cps 579.503252562 9308340.13122 Unknown Sample 343.232365741 Did the chemist make the correct choice in how they choose to display the data up in Table 1? Choose the best explanation from the choices below. No. Since the instrument calculates 12 digits for all values, they should all be kept and not truncated. Doing so would eliminate significant information. No. Since the instrument calculates 5 decimal places for the standard, all of the values should be limited to the same number. The other decimal places are not significant for the blank and unknown sample. Yes. The way Saman made the standards was limited by the 250-mL volumetric flask. This glassware can report values to 2 decimal places, and this establishes our number of significant figures. Yes. Instrumental data…arrow_forward
