- A 12-oz (355-mL) Pepsi contains 38.9 mg caffeine (molar mass = 194.2 g/mol). Assume that the Pepsi, mainly water, has a density of 1.01 g/mL. For such a Pepsi, calculate: (a) its caffeine concentration in ppm; (b) its molarity of caffeine; and (c) the molality of caffeine.arrow_forwardHow many grams of glucose must be added to 275 g of water in order to prepare each of the following percent-by-mass concentrations of aqueous glucose solution? a. 1.30% b. 5.00% c. 20.0% d. 31.0%arrow_forwardConsider the following aqueous solutions: (i) 0.20 m HOCH2CH2OH (nonvolatile, nonelectrolyte); (ii) 0.10 m CaCl2 (iii) 0.12 m KBr; and (iv) 0.12 m Na2SO4. (a) Which solution has the highest boiling point? (b) Which solution has the lowest freezing point? (c) Which solution has the highest water vapor pressure?arrow_forward
- In your own words, explain (a) why seawater has a lower freezing point than fresh water. (b) why one often obtains a grainy product when making fudge (a supersaturated sugar solution). (c) why the concentrations of solutions used for intravenous feeding must be controlled carefully. (d) why fish in a lake (and fishermen) seek deep, shaded places during summer afternoons. (e) why champagne fizzes in a glass.arrow_forwardEqual numbers of moles of two soluble, substances, substance A and substance B, are placed into separate 1.0-L samples of water. a The water samples are cooled. Sample A freezes at 0.50C, and Sample B freezes at l.00C. Explain how the solutions can have different freezing points. b You pour 500 mL of the solution containing substance B into a different beaker. How would the freezing point of this 500-mL portion of solution B compare to the freezing point of the 1.0-L sample of solution A? c Calculate the molality of the solutions of A and B. Assume that i = 1 for substance A. d If you were to add an additional 1.0 kg of water to solution B, what would be the new freezing point of the solution? Try to write an answer to this question without using a mathematical formula. e What concentration (molality) of substances A and B would result in both solutions having a freezing point of 0.25C? f Compare the boiling points, vapor pressure, and osmotic pressure of the original solutions of A and B. Dont perform the calculations; just state which is the greater in each ease.arrow_forwardCalculate the enthalpies of solution for Li2SO4 and K2SO4. Are the solution processes exothermic or endothermic? Compare them with LiCl and KCl. What similarities or differences do you find?arrow_forward
