Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The diagram a has to be labeled as strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte or nonelectrolyte.
Concept Introduction:
A substance that conducts electricity in water is called as electrolyte and substance that does not conduct electricity in water is called as nonelectrolyte.
Strong electrolyte: An electrolyte that completely dissociates to form ions, when it dissolves in water is called as strong electrolyte.
Weak electrolyte: An electrolyte in which molecules (a small fraction) forms ions, when dissolves in water to give largely uncharged molecules is called as weak electrolyte.
(b)
Interpretation:
The diagram b has to be labeled as strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte or nonelectrolyte.
Concept Introduction:
Refer to part (a).

- Consider this question: What mass of a concentrated solution of nitric acid (68.0% HNO3 by mass) is needed to prepare 400.0 g of a 10.0% solution of HNO3 by mass? (a) Outline the steps necessary to answer the question. (b) Answer the question.arrow_forwardDescribe the changes that occur between the time excess solute is placed into water and the time the solution becomes saturated.arrow_forwardCalculate the molarity of the following solutions: a. A sample of solid Na2SO4 weighing 0.140g is dissolved in enough water to make 10.mL of solution. b. A 4.50-g sample of glucose (C6H12O6) is dissolved in enough water to give 150.mL of solution. c. A 43.5-g sample of K2SO4 is dissolved in a quantity of water, and the solution is stirred well. A 25.0-mL sample of the resulting solution is evaporated to dryness and leaves behind 2.18g of solid K2SO4.arrow_forward
- Calculate the concentration in (v/v) of the following solutions: a.250.mL of solution contains 15.0mL of acetone. b.250.mL of solution contains 15.0mL of any soluble liquid solute. c.1.0 quart of acetic acid is put into a 5- gallon container, and enough water is added to fill the container. d.A solution of acetone and water is separated by distillation. A 300.-mL sample gives 109mL of acetone.arrow_forwardAmmonium chloride is a strong electrolyte. Draw a molecular-level picture of this substance after it dissolves in water.arrow_forwardWhat kinds of solute particles are present in a solution of an ionic compound?
