- An aluminum-containing compound has the empirical formula (C2HS)2AIF. Find the molecular formula if 0.448 g of the compound dissolved in 23.46 g of benzene has a freezing point of 5.265 C.arrow_forward(a) If you dissolve 10.0 g (about one heaping teaspoonful) of sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11) in a cup of water (250. g), what are the mole fraction, molality, and weight percent of sugar? (b) Seawater has a sodium ion concentration of 1.08 104 ppm. If the sodium is present in the form of dissolved sodium chloride, what mass of NaCl is in each liter of seawater? Seawater is denser than pure water because of dissolved salts. Its density is 1.05 g/mLarrow_forwardThe organic salt [(C4H9)4N][ClO4] consists of the ions (C4H9)4N+ and ClO4. The salt dissolves in chloroform. What mass (in grams) of the salt must have been dissolved if the boiling point of a solution of the salt in 25.0 g chloroform is 63.20 C? The normal boiling point of chloroform is 61.70 C and Kb = 3.63 C kg mol1. Assume that the salt dissociates completely into its ions in solution.arrow_forward
