Question

TRUE OR FALSE

a) An electrolyte is a solvent that, when dissolved in water, causes the solution to conduct electricity

b) In an aqueous solution of sugar, the sugar is the solute

c) If 500.0 mL of a sugar/water solution contrain 0.30 moles of sugar, then the molarity of the solution is 0.60 molar

d) If 50.0 mL of a KOH solution require 35.0 mL of 6.0 M HCl solution to reach the equivalence point of a titration then the molarity of the KOH solution is 4.2 molar

e) If a solution containing dissolved barium ions is mixed with a solution containing dissolved chloride ions, no precipitate should form

f) If 50.0 mL of a 9.0 molar salt water solution are diluted by adding 25.0 mL of additional water, the resulting molarity of the diluted solution is 4.5 molar

g) When the volume of a system increases at constant pressure, the work that occures will be nagative

h) If 2.5 moles of an ideal gas are contained in a volume of 7.5 L and at a temperature of 323 K then the pressure of the gas will be 8.8 atm

i) For a fixed amount of an ideal gas at constant pressure, if the temperature of the gas is decreased then the volume of the gas will decrease

j) A small value of heat capacity indicates that the temperature of a system will rise significantly when heat is absorbed compared to a system with a large heat capacity

k) If a system loses 500 calories of heat and has 500 calories of work done it then the change in internal energy (Delta E) of the system will be -1000 calories

Explanation / Answer

Ans

a ) True

The electrolyte contains positively and negatively charged ions , which when dissolved in the water , gets dissociated and the solution starts conducting electricity .

b ) True

The aqueous solution means that the major part of the solution is made up of water that is solvent.

c) True

Molarity = number of moles of solute / volume of solution in L

M = 0.30 / 0.5 = 0.60 M

d) True

using the formula M1 V1 = M2 V2

where M is the molarity and V is the volume

M1 x 50 = 6 x 35

M1 = 4.2 M
