Textbook Question
Chapter 18, Problem 58E
Some molecules are able to stabilize a negative charge by passing it from one atom to the next by a flip-flopping of double bonds. This occurs when the negative charge is one atom away from an oxygen double bond as shown below. Note that the curved arrows indicate the movement of electrons.
Why, then, is sulfuric acid so much stronger an acid than carbonic acid?

The boiling point of an azeotropic mixture of water and ethanol is less than that of water and ethanol. The mixture shows
(a) no deviation from Raoult’s Law.
(b) positive deviation from Raoult’s Law.
(c) negative deviation from Raoult’s Law.
(d) that the solution is unsaturated.
Justify the statement: Polymer molecular weight is
expressed in terms of an average. Calculatethe number
average and weight average molecular weights of polymer
molecules with different degrees of polymerization such as

CH= CH2).
One way to determine a structural defect model (such as that shown in the figure below for a solid solution of Al2 O3 in MgO) is to make careful density measurements.
O2-
AP+
Mg2+
o Vacancy
A substitutional solid solution of Al½O3 in MgO is not as
simple as the case of NiO in MgO. The requirement of charge
neutrality in the overall compound permits only two Al+ ions
to fill every three Mg²+ vacant sites, leaving one Mg²+
vacancy.
What would be the percent change in density for a 5 mol % solution of Al2 O3 in MgO (compared with pure, defect-free MgO)?
Express your answer to three significant figures.
