Answer from: Quest

geosphere and hydrosphere.

this is because the geosphere has to do with geological events, while the hydrosphere controls all water on earth.

Answer from: Quest

the answer is yes

it has kinetic energy

reason

an object has kinetic energy when you stop the force carrying it, the object will stay in motion.

Answer from: Quest

the missing options are :

(1) lower boiling point and a lower freezing point(2) lower boiling point and a higher freezing point(3) higher boiling point and a lower freezing point(4) higher boiling point and a higher freezing point

answer : the correct answer is option (3) higher boiling point and a lower freezing point

explanation :

when a non volatile solute is added to a solvent like water, it results in elevation of boiling point.

let us find the increase in boiling point of water when cacl₂ is added to water to make a solution of 1 m

step 1 : find molality of the solution

let us assume we have 1 l of solution.

$m = \frac{moles (solute)}{l ( solution)}$

$1 m = \frac{moles (cacl_{2})}{1 l }= 1 mol cacl_{2}$

let us convert this to grams of cacl₂.

molar mass of cacl2 is 111 g/mol

grams of cacl₂ = $1 mol \times \frac{111g}{mol} = 111 g cacl_{2}$

mass of solute = 111 g

assuming density of solution same as water which is 1g/ml we have ,

mass of solution = density * volume

mass of solution = $\frac{1g}{ml} \times 1000 ml = 1000 g$

mass of solution = mass of solvent + mass of solute

mass of solute = 1000g - 111g

mass of solute 889 g = 0.889 kg

the molality of the solution can be calculated as

$molality = \frac{mol (solute)}{kg ( solvent)}$

$molality = \frac{1mol}{0.889kg}$

molality = 1.12 m

step 2 : find boiling point elevation.

the elevation in boiling point is calculated as

$\bigtriangleup t_{b} = i \times k_{b} \times m$

here δtb = boiling point elevation

i = vant hoff factor which is the number of ions formed by the solute .

cacl₂ dissociates as $cacl_{2} \rightarrow ca^{2+} + 2 cl^{-}$

it forms 3 ions . therefore,

i = 3

m = molality which is 1.12 m

kb is constant for a given solvent. for water it is 0.512

$\bigtriangleup t_{b} = 3 \times 0.512 \times 1.12$

$\bigtriangleup t_{b} = 1.7$

the boiling point of water increases by 1.7 °c

step 3: find freezing point depression.

when a non volatile solute is added to water, it results in decrease in freezing point.

the formula to find freezing point depression is

$\bigtriangleup t_{f} = i \times k_{f} \times m$

kf is constant for water and its value is 1.86

$\bigtriangleup t_{f} = 3 \times 1.86 \times 1.12$

$\bigtriangleup t_{f} = 6.2$

the freezing point of water decreases by 6.2 °c

therefore we can say that, the solution will have a higher boiling point and a lower freezing point

Astudent made a graph plotting the progress of a reaction over time. the student forgot to label the y-axis of the graph. a graph is shown with two graph lines. one graph line starts at a higher position on the y axis and slopes downwards towards the right. the other graph line starts at a lower position on the y axis and slopes upwards towards the right. the two graph lines stop short of intersecting each other and continue as separate lines which gradually become straight and parallel to the x axis. a vertical line is shown at a point where the two graph lines finally became parallel to the x axis. this vertical line is labeled equilibrium. the title on the x axis is time and an arrow pointing towards the right is shown above time. the title on the y axis is left blank. what best explains the label that the student should use on the y-axis? amount, because as the amount of product decreases, the amount of reactant increases over time. reaction rate, because forward and backward reaction become equal at equilibrium. amount, because the amounts of reactants and products become constant after equilibrium is reached. reaction rate, as the rate of forward reaction increases and rate of backward reaction decreases over time.
