What is the van't hoff factor of C7H7NO?

Answers

Answer:

i = 1

Explanation:

Van't Hoff factor (i) is explained as the number of ions dissolved in solution.

It is needed to determine colligative properties which depend on the amount of solute.

C₇H₇NO is an organic compound → benzamide

All the organic compound have 1, as Van't Hoff factor.

In order to predict i, you consider ionic salts. For example:

AlCl₃

CaCl₂

NH₄NO₃

When you dissociate them, you determine i:

AlCl₃ →  Al³⁺  +  3Cl⁻                   i =4

CaCl₂ →  Ca²⁺  +  2Cl⁻            i = 3

NH₄NO₃  →  NH₄⁺  +  NO₃⁻        i =2

Why do minor parties have difficulty succeeding in the United States electoral system? A. tend to focus on only a single issue B. quickly join forces with the wrong party C. views are usually tied to strict religious doctrine D. seldom are given the respect from foreign officials they need to get elected

Answers

I think the best answer is D. Minor parties do not always get a support from foreign officials in order for them to get elected. They also have difficulties because they are a small political party. They do not have enough resources or supporters as compared to larger political parties.

A marshmallow is placed in a microwave to be heated for smores. The marshmallow has a 86 mL at a temperature of 543 °C. What temperature, in K, would themarshmallow need to be if the volume changed to 51.1 ml?

Answers

Answer: 484.94 K

Explanation:

T2 = T1 X V2 / V1

Temperature must be in kelvin so 543 + 273.15 =816.15

816.15 X 51.1 / 86

Answer: We can use the combined gas law to solve this problem:

(P₁V₁/T₁) = (P₂V₂/T₂)

where P is pressure, V is volume, and T is temperature in Kelvin.

We know that P₁ = P₂ (the pressure is assumed to be constant), and we are given V₁, T₁, and V₂. We can solve for T₂:

(P₁V₁/T₁) = (P₂V₂/T₂)

T₂ = (P₂V₂/T₁) * (T₁/P₁V₁)

We need to convert the initial temperature from Celsius to Kelvin:

T₁ = 543 + 273 = 816 K

Substituting the values:

T₂ = (1 atm * 86 mL / 816 K) * (51.1 mL / 1 atm * 86 mL)

T₂ = 0.0629 * 51.1 * 1000 = 3217 K

Therefore, the marshmallow would need to be heated to a temperature of 3217 K for its volume to change from 86 mL to 51.1 mL.

A solution has a pOH of 8.7 so what is the pH of the solution? Is the solution acidic, basic, or neutral?

Answers

pOH scale is used to determine the basicity of a solution

pH scale is used to determine the acidity of a solution

pH and pOH are related in the following formula

pH + pOH = 14

once pOH is known we can calculate pH

pOH = 8.7

pH = 14 - 8.7

pH = 5.3


pH of the solution is 5.3


when pH is less than 7 the solution is said to be acidic

when pH is equal to 7 then solution is neutral

when pH is more than 7 then solution is basic

the pH of the solution here is 5.3 which is less than 7, therefore solution is acidic

acidic solution with pH of 5.3

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14 - pOH

pH = 14 - 8.7

pH = 5,3

This solution is acidic.

If pH<7 - acidic
If pH=7 - neutral
If pH>7 - basic
