Question: What is the boiling point of a solution prepared by dissolving 2.50 g of biphenyl (C 12H10)
in 85.0g of benzene? The molecular weight of biphenyl is 154g.
Solution:

The molality solution is the number of moles of biphenyl dissolved in 1000g of benzene.

Question: Hydrobromic Acid (HBr) is a strong acid and will dissociate completely in water to H +
and Br-. For every mole of HBr, there wo;; be 1 mole of H+, so the concentration of H+
will be the same as the concentration of HBr. (H+ = 0.025M).
Solution:

pH is calculated by the formula:

pH

- log (H+)

by entering the concentration found before:

pH

- log (0.025)

pH

- (-1.602)

pH

1.602

The pH pf a 0.025 M solution of Hydrobromic Acid is 1.602.

Answer:

pH

Question: The pressure of a nitrogen (N), carbon dioxide (CO2), and oxygen (O2) is 150 kPa. What
is the partial pressure of oxygen if the partial pressures of the nitrogen and carbon dioxide
are 100kPa and 24kPa, respectively?
Solution:

Daltons Law of partial pressure states that:

PTOTAL

P1 + P2 + P3 + ... Pn

Therefore,

Question: 6.2 liters of an ideal gas are contained at 3.0 atm and 37C. How many moles of this gas
are present?
Solution:

The ideal gas law states that:

PV

nRT

pressure

volume

number of moles of gas

gas constant (0.08 L atm/mol K)

absolute temperature in Kelvin

where:

Solution:
T

37C + 273 K

310 K

Therefore, there are 0.75 mol of the ideal gas present in the system.
Answer:

0.75 mol

Question: What volume (in mL) of 12.0 M HCl is needed to contain 3.00 moles of HCl?
Solution:
12.0 M = 3.00 mol / x
x = 0.250 L

This calculates the volume in liters. Multiplying the answer by 1000 provides the
required mL value:

0.250 L x (1000 mL / L) = 250. mL (note use of explicit decimal point to create three sig
figs)

Answer:

Volume

Question: A measure of energy dispersal. Any spontaneous change disperses energy and increases
entropy overall. For example, when water evaporates, the internal energy of the water is
dispersed with the water vapor produced, corresponding to an increase in entropy.
