John dissolves .5g of a white powder in 25g of benzene (FP 5oC) (kf benzene is 5.1) and finds the solution freezes at 3.7oC. Determine the MW of the compound!

The compound has a molar mass of 78.4 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: data given

Mass of a sample = 0.5 grams

Mass of benzene = 25 grams

Freezing poing = 5 °C

Kf of benzene = 5.1 °C/m

Freezing point solution = 3.7 °C

Step 2: Calculate molality

ΔT = i*Kf*m

⇒with ΔT = the freezing point depression = 5.0 - 3.7 = 1.3 °C

⇒with i = the can't hoff factor = 1

⇒with Kf = the freezing point depression constant of benzene = 5.1 °C/m

⇒with m = the molality

1.3 = 5.1 * m

m = 1.3 / 5.1

m = 0.255 moles /kg

Step 3: Calculate moles

Molality = moles / mass benzene

0.255 molal = moles / 0.025 kg

Moles = 0.255 molal * 0.025 kg

Moles = 0.006375 moles

Step 4: Calculate molar mass of the compound

Molar mass compund = mass / moles

Molar mass compound = 0.5 grams / 0.006375 moles

Molar mass compound = 78.4 g/mol

The compound has a molar mass of 78.4 g/mol

i don,t know so just answer mine

c is having 4 valence electrons and is bonded to three hydrogens and one sulphur atom, therefore, the number of bond pair is equal to four. as all the valence electrons are used in forming the bonds so, there is no lone pair left on carbon.

s is having 6 valence electrons and is bonded to one other sulfur atom and one carbon atom, therefore, the number of bond pair is equal to 2. as only two valence electrons are used in forming the bonds so, four electrons are left. therefore, two lone pairs are present on s.
