Colligative Properties - correct answers - Properties that depend on the concentration of solute particles
but not on their identity.
- Vapor pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and osmotic pressure.
Colloid - correct answers A mixture of two or more substances mixed together that can be separated.
ex. Milk (Protein and fat globules dispersed in liquid), Smoke (Solid soot particles dispersed in air), and
Gelatin (water dispersed in a protein medium)
Calculate the molality of a 17.5% (by mass) aqueous solution of nitric acid. - correct answers Equation:
Molality = moles of solute / kg of solution
1.) Find Grams of Nitric Acid and Solution (Water).
17.5% -> 17.5 g of Nitric Acid
100 g - 17.5 g = 82.5 g of Solution
(Note: You don't convert 17.5% to 0.0175 because it's assumed that the solution is out of 100g)
2.) Calculate Moles of Solute
Molar Mass of Nitric Acid: 63.01 g /mol
17.5g / 63.01 g*mol-1 = 0.2777 mol
3.) Calculate Molality
Convert grams of solution to kilograms
82.5 g * 1 kg / 1000 g = 0.0825 kg
, Molality = moles of solute / kg of solution
0.2777 mol / 0.0825 kg = 3.3661 mol/kg
Answer: 3.37 m
A solution is prepared by dissolving 15.0 g of NH3 in 250.0g of water. The density of the resulting
solution is 0.974 g/mL. The molarity of the NH3 in the solution is ___________. - correct answers 1.)
Find mass of NH3 solution
15.0g + 250g = 265.0g
2.) Find volume of NH3 solution
Volume = mass / density (g/mL)
265.0g / 0.974g*mL-1 = 272.074 mL
3.) Find moles of NH3
Molecular Weight of NH3 = 17.031g/mol
15.0g / 17.031 g*mol-1 = 0.881 mol
4.) Find Molarity (M) of NH3 Solution
Convert milliliters to liters.
Milliliters to Liters = 272.074 mL x 1 L / 1000mL = 0.2721 L
Molarity = moles of solute / Liters of solution (mol/L)
0.881 mol / 0.2721 L = 3.238 M (mol/L)
Answer: 3.24 M
A solution is prepared by dissolving 15.0 g of NH3 in 250.0g of water. The density of the resulting
solution is 0.974 g/mL. The molality of the NH3 in the solution is ___________. - correct answers 1.) Find
mass of NH3 solution
