Answer to Problem 132E
The statement, “Crystallization ceases when equilibrium is reached” is false.
Explanation of Solution
Equilibrium is a state of balance between the rate of dissolution and the rate of crystallization. Therefore, both the dissolution and crystallization occurs at a same rate.
Therefore, the statement, “Crystallization ceases when equilibrium is reached” is false.
The statement, “Crystallization ceases when equilibrium is reached” is false.
(g)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement, “All solubilities increase at higher temperatures” is true or false is to be stated.

Explanation of Solution
When the solute particle is in a gaseous state, then the solubility of the solute particle can be increased by increasing the pressure on the water. In this case, the solute is nitrogen gas, so its solubility can be increased by increasing the pressure on it.
Therefore, the statement, “Increasing air pressure over water increases the solubility of nitrogen in the water” is true.
The statement, “Increasing air pressure over water increases the solubility of nitrogen in the water” is true.
(i)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement, “An ionic solute is more likely to dissolve in a nonpolar solvent than in a polar solvent” is true or false is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The solution is defined as the mixture of two or more substances where the substances in a relative amount get chemically combined that is, they get mixed together, homogenously.
When the compounds get dissociated into ions on dissolution dissolved in water, then they are known as ionic compounds.
Answer to Problem 132E
The statement, “An ionic solute is more likely to dissolve in a nonpolar solvent than in a polar solvent” is false.
Explanation of Solution
Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
Ionic solute is polar in nature, so, it will dissolve in polar solvent much easily than the nonpolar solvent.
Therefore, the statement, “An ionic solute is more likely to dissolve in a nonpolar solvent than in a polar solvent” is false.
The statement, “An ionic solute is more likely to dissolve in a nonpolar solvent than in a polar solvent” is false.
(j)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement, “The molarity of a solution changes slightly with temperature, but the molality does not” is true or false is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Molality is defined as the number of moles of solute present in the specific weight of solvent in kilograms.
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute present in specific volume of solution in liters.
Answer to Problem 132E
The statement, “The molarity of a solution changes slightly with temperature, but the molality does not” is true.
Explanation of Solution
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute present in specific volume of solution in liters. The volume of a solution is temperature dependent, so it changes with temperature. On the other hand, molality is the number of moles of solute present in the specific weight of solvent in kilograms. The mass of solvent is not temperature dependent, so it does not change with temperature.
Therefore, the statement, “The molarity of a solution changes slightly with temperature, but the molality does not” is true.
The statement, “The molarity of a solution changes slightly with temperature, but the molality does not” is true.
