Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Naphthalene is soluble or insoluble in water is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The liquids having polar molecules are called a polar solvent. If there is some net dipole moment in the molecule then it will be a polar molecule. The liquid having non-polar molecules are called non-polar solvent. If the net dipole moment is zero, the molecule will be non-polar.
(b)
Interpretation:
Potassium hydroxide is soluble or insoluble in water is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The liquids having polar molecules are called a polar solvent. If there is some net dipole moment in the molecule then it will be a polar molecule. The liquid having non-polar molecules are called non-polar solvent. If the net dipole moment is zero, the molecule will be non-polar.
(c)
Interpretation:
The compound calcium acetate is soluble or insoluble in water is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The liquids having polar molecules are called a polar solvent. If there is some net dipole moment in the molecule then it will be a polar molecule. The liquid having non-polar molecules are called non-polar solvent. If the net dipole moment is zero, the molecule will be non-polar.
(d)
Interpretation:
The compound trichlorotoluene is soluble or insoluble in water is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The liquids having polar molecules are called a polar solvent. If there is some net dipole moment in the molecule then it will be a polar molecule. The liquid having non-polar molecules are called non-polar solvent. If the net dipole moment is zero, the molecule will be non-polar.

- You want to prepare a 1.0 mol/kg solution of ethyleneglycol, C2H4(OH)2, in water. Calculate the mass of ethylene glycol you would need to mix with 950. g water.arrow_forwardA student weighs out a 4.80-g sample of aluminum bromide, transfers it to a 100-mL volumetric flask, adds enough water to dissolve it, and then adds water to the 100-mL mark. What is the molarity of aluminum bromide in the resulting solution?arrow_forwardssume a highly magnified view of a solution of HCI that allows you to “see” the HCl. Draw this magnified view. If you dropped in a piece of magnesium, the magnesium would disappear, and hydrogen gas would he released. Represent this change using symbols for the elements, and write the balanced equation.arrow_forward
- Bone was dissolved in hydrochloric acid, giving 50.0 mL of solution containing calcium chloride, CaCL2. To precipitate the calcium ion from the resulting solution, an excess of potassium oxalate was added. The precipitate of calcium oxalate, CaC2O4, weighed 1.437 g. What was the molarity of CaCl2 in the solution?arrow_forwardLead poisoning has been a hazard for centuries. Some scholars believe that the decline of the Roman Empire can be traced, in part, to high levels of lead in water from containers and pipes, and from wine that was stored in leadglazed containers. If we presume that the typical Roman water supply was saturated with lead carbonate, PbCO3 (Ksp = 7.4 1014), how much lead will a Roman ingest in a year if he or she drinks 1 L/day from the container?arrow_forwardWhat is the molarity of pure water with a density of 1.00 g/mL?arrow_forward
- Acetic acid (HC2H3O2) can be prepared by the action of the acetobacter organism on dilute solutions of ethanol (C2H5OH). The equation for the reaction is C2H5OH(aq)+O2(g)HC2H3O2(aq)+H2OHow many milliliters of a 12.5% (by volume) solution of ethanol are required to produce 175 mL of 0.664 M acetic acid? (Densityofpureethanol=0.789g/mL.)arrow_forwardCharacterize strong electrolytes versus weak electrolytes versus nonelectrolytes. Give examples of each. How do you experimentally determine whether a soluble substance is a strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or nonelectrolyte?arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between a solute and a solvent?arrow_forward
