- 8.52 Rank the following hydrocarbons in order of increasing vapor pressure: C2H6,C10H22,CH4,C7H16,C22H46 .arrow_forwardA solution is made by adding 50.0 mL of ethanol (C2H5OH, d = 0.789 g/mL) to 50.0 mL of water (d = 0.998 g/mL). What is the total vapor pressure over the solution at 20 C? (See Study Question 75.) The vapor pressure of ethanol at 20 C is 43.6 mm Hg.arrow_forwardA solution of benzoic acid in benzene has a freezing point of 3.1 C and a boiling point of 82.6 C. (The freezing point of pure benzene is 5.50 C, and its boiling point is 80.1 C) The structure of benzoic acid is Benzoic acid, C6H5CO2H What can you conclude about the state of the benzoic acid molecules at the two different temperatures? Recall the discussion of hydrogen bonding in Section 11.3.arrow_forward
- Acetylene can be made by reacting calcium carbide with water. CaC2(s) + 2 H2O() C2H2(g) + Ca(OH)2(aq) Assume that you place 2.65 g CaC2 in excess water and collect the acetylene over water. The volume of the acetylene and water vapor is 795 mL at 25.0 C and a barometric pressure of 735.2 mmHg. Calculate the percent yield of acetylene. The vapor pressure of water at 25 C is 23.8 mmHg.arrow_forwardA sample of sulfur weighing 0.210 g was dissolved in 17.8 g of carbon disulfide, CS2 ( Kb=2.43 C/m). If the boiling point elevation was 0.107 C, what is the formula of a sulfur molecule in carbon disulfide?arrow_forwardDefine the normal boiling point of water. Why does a sample of boiling water remain at the same temperature until all the water has been boiled? Define the normal freezing point of water. Sketch a representation of a heating/cooling curve for water, marking clearly the normal freezing and boiling points.arrow_forward
- In some regions of the southwest United States, the water is very hard. For example, in Las Cruces, New Mexico, the tap water contains about 560 g of dissolved solids per milliliter. Reverse osmosis units are marketed in this area to soften water. A typical unit exerts a pressure of 8.0 atm and can produce 45 L water per day. a. Assuming all of the dissolved solids are MgCO3 and assuming a temperature of 27C, what total volume of water must be processed to produce 45 L pure water? b. Would the same system work for purifying seawater? (Assume seawater is 0.60 M NaCl.)arrow_forwardAcetone, CH3COCH3, is a common laboratory solvent. It is usually contaminated with water, however. Why does acetone absorb water so readily? Draw molecular structures showing how water and acetone can interact. What intermolecular force(s) is(are) involved in the interaction?arrow_forwardWhat is the boiling point of a solution of NaCI in water if the solution freezes at -0.93 C?arrow_forward
- Examine the nanoscale diagrams and the phase diagram for Question 112. Match each particulate diagram (1 through 7) to its corresponding point (A through H) on the phase diagram.arrow_forwardFor each of the following pairs, predict which substance is more soluble in water. a. CH3NH2 or NH3 b. CH3CN or CH3OCH3 c. CH3CH2OH or CH3CH2CH3 d. CH3OH or CH3CH2OH e. (CH3)3CCH2OH or CH3(CH2)6OH f. CH3OCH3 or CH3CO2Harrow_forwardThe sugar fructose contains 40.0% C, 6.7% H, and 53.3% O by mass. A solution of 11.7 g of fructose in 325 g of ethanol has a boiling point of 78.59 C. The boiling point of ethanol is 78.35 C, and Kb for ethanol is 1.20 C/m . What is the molecular formula of fructose?arrow_forward
