Which substance has the lowest vapor pressure at 75°C?(1) water (3) propanone
(2) ethanoic acid (4) ethanol

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer : (2) Ethanoic acid has the lowest vapor pressure at 75^(0)C.

Explanation :

Vapor pressure is the pressure which is exerted by vapor when the vapor form is in equilibrium with the solid or liquid form.

Boiling point is the temperature in which the vapor pressure of liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure.

Vapor pressure is related with the boiling point :

vapor pressure is inversely proportional to the boiling point. As the boiling point increases, vapor pressure decreases and as the boiling point decreases, vapor pressure increases.

\text{Vapor presssure }\infty \frac{1}{\text{boiling point}}

The standard boiling point of given liquids water, propanone, ethanoic acid and ethanol are 100, 56, 118 and 79^(0)C respectively.

Hence,  Ethanoic acid is the substance which has the lowest vapor pressure.


Answer 2
Answer: Vapor pressure is a colligative property. This means that intermolecular forces play a large role in how volatile a substance is. We can thus assume that the substance and or liquid in this case with the strongest intermolecular forces will have the lowest vapor pressure, as intermolecular attraction will oppose the vaporizing forces created by temperature and or kinetic energy. The strongest of such intermolecular forces is hydrogen bonding, and given some knowledge of boiling point we can find the answer. In this case:
water: has hydrogen bonding, dispersion, and dipole forces for intermolecular attraction
ethanoic acid: a carboxylic acid has one polar end with a negative charge as CH3COOH turns to CH3COO-. Hydrogen bonding is also present in pure solutions.
Propanone: is a ketone and has an electronegative oxygen attached to a carbon, but does not exhibit hydrogen bonding since the O is not attached to a hydrogen. 
Ethanol: Like water exhibits hydrogen bonding, not as strong but more dispersion forces. 

Next we must understand boiling points
Water: 100˚C
Ethanoic Acid: 118˚C
Propanone: 56˚C
Ethanol: 78˚C
Given this knowledge we can order the liquids in terms of decreasing volatility or decreasing vapor pressure. We now notice that Ethanoic acid, or acetic acid will have the lowest vapor pressure at 75˚C

The gas inside the balloon will change into a liquid.

Answers

Answer: The gas atoms will strike the sides of the balloon more often.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its motion.

Average kinetic energy is defined as the average of the kinetic energies of all the particles present in a system. It is determined by the equation:

K=(3RT)/(2)

K= kinetic energy

R= gas constant

T= temperature  

From above, it is visible that kinetic energy is directly related to the temperature of the system.

So if average kinetic energy of the system increases , the speed of the molecules will be more and hence the gas atoms will strike the sides of the balloon more often.

C). As particles gain kinetic energy, they will speed up. With this new velocity they will collide with the sides of the wall more frequently by nature.

How many identical double strands of DNA will be present after three rounds of replication?four
six
eight
nine

Answers

Answer:

eight

Explanation:

In the first stage of DNA replication each DNA molecule replicates into two daughter DNA. In the second stage of DNA replication each of the two daughter DNA molecule replicates into two daughter DNA, thus forming a total of four DNA molecules. In the third stage of DNA replication each of the four daughter DNA molecule replicates into two daughter DNA, thus forming a total of eight DNA molecules.

Every time you replicate DNA you get 2 new DNA and 1 strand of each DNA is composed of the parent strand. So after 3 rounds of replication....
1 --> 2 ---> 4 ---> 8
Out of these 8, 2 of them contain the parent strands. So 2/8 = 1/4 = 25%

Thus the answer is the third option, eight (8).

A compound has a molar mass of 90 grams per mole and the empirical formula CH2O. What is the molecular formula of this compound?

Answers

CH2O = 12 + 2 + 16 = 30
90 /30 = 3
3 x (CH2O) = C3H6O3

Final answer:

The molecular formula of a compound with an empirical formula of CH₂O and a molar mass of 90 g/mol is C₃H₆O₃. This is found by dividing the compound's molar mass by the molar mass of the empirical formula, and using the ratio to multiply the subscripts in the empirical formula.

Explanation:

The molecular formula of a compound can be determined using the molar mass and the empirical formula given. The empirical formula for the compound is CH₂O, which has a molar mass of approximately 30 g/mol (12 g for C, 1 g for H, and 16 g for O). If the molar mass of the compound is 90 g/mol, we can find the ratio of the molar mass of the compound to the empirical formula by dividing 90 g/mol by 30 g/mol, which gives us 3.

This means the molecular formula of this compound is three times the empirical formula. So, to obtain the molecular formula, you multiply each subscript in the empirical formula by 3. If you do this for CH₂O, you get C₃H₆O₃ which is the molecular formula of the compound.

Determine the new temperature when the volume a gas at 1.56L and 20.0 ˚C changes to 2.02L. Please show work

Answers

Answer:

T₂ = 379.4 K

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 1.56 L

Initial temperature = 20°C (20+273 = 293 K)

Final volume = 2.02 L

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂  = V₂T₁ /V₁

T₂ = 2.02 L × 293 K / 1.56 L

T₂ = 591.86 L.K /  1.56 L

T₂ = 379.4 K
