Answer:

  • Molality = 0.066 m
  • Molar mass = 608.36 g/mol

Explanation:

It seems the question is incomplete. However a web search us shows this data:

" Reserpine is a natural product isolated from the roots of the shrub Rauwolfia serpentina. It was first synthesized in 1956 by Nobel Prize winner R. B. Woodward. It is used as a tranquilizer and sedative. When 1.00 g reserpine is dissolved in 25.0 g camphor, the freezing-point depression is 2.63 °C (Kf for camphor is 40 °C·kg/mol). Calculate the molality of the solution and the molar mass of reserpine. "

The <em>freezing-point depression</em> is expressed by:

  • ΔT=Kf * m

We put the data given by the problem and <u>solve for m</u>:

  • 2.63 °C = 40°C·kg/mol * m
  • m = 0.06575 m

For the calculation of the molar mass:<em> Molality</em> is defined as moles of solute per kilogram of solvent:

  • 0.06575 m = Moles reserpine / kg camphor
  • 25.0 g camphor ⇒ 25.0/1000 = 0.025 kg camphor

We<u> calculate moles of reserpine:</u>

  • 0.06575 m = Moles reserpine / 0.025 kg camphor
  • Moles reserpine = 1.64x10⁻³ mol

Finally we use the mass of reserpine and the moles to calculate <u>the molar mass</u>:

  • 1.00 g reserpine / 1.64x10⁻³ mol = 608.36 g/mol

<em>Keep in mind that if the data in your problem is different, the results will be different. But the solving method remains the same.</em>

What would be the products for the reaction Br2 + KI →? (Just identify the correct products for the reaction. You do not need to
Savatey [412]

<u>Answer:</u> The products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its chemical reaction.

The general chemical equation for the single displacement reaction follows:

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

The given chemical equation follows:

Br_2+2KI\rightarrow I_2+2KBr

Bromine element is more reactive than iodine element. Thus, can easily replace iodine from its chemical reaction.

Hence, the products of the reaction will be I_2\text{ and }KBr

Wade thinks it would be really cool to become a radiologist. Which two skills are important for him to have in order to excel in
zlopas [31]

ANSWER: The two skills that Wade will need to excel in the career of a Radiologist are:

1. Interpersonal skills to talk to patients and help them feel comfortable: This skill important because patients often are afraid of getting detected by a disease. Few patients also fear of getting tested by the heavy and complicated machineries. A radiologist's interpersonal skill will calm the patient and his attendant and will make them feel relieved.

2. Technical skills to know how to use the machinery and equipment needed for the job: Radiologist's primary duty is to operate the machineries in order to diagnose a patient correctly. A radiologist can not afford to be an amateur as he will either not be able to detect a disease or may raise a false alarm of a person having a disease.

At higher elevations, the boiling point of water decreases, due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. As a result, what could
amid [387]
When we say decrease in boiling point, that means, we achieve boiling at a more lower temperature (lower than 100deg C). This is due to the lower atmospheric pressure. Boiling happens when the vapor pressure is equal the atmospheric pressure. Lower atmospheric pressure takes lower temperature for vapor pressure to equate with the atmospheric pressure. The answer here is letter B. 
At higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point, so the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.

127) Thirty-six colonies grew in nutrient agar from 1.0 ml of undiluted sample in a standard plate count. How many cells were in
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

36

Explanation:

Since the sample was undiluted the number of colonies is the number that grew on the nutrient agar which is 36 colonies. If it was diluted for example let say 0.1 ml from a dilution in which 1 ml of the sample was added to 9 ml of water, and it grew  colonies then  0.1 ml  yielded  6 colonies, 1 ml of the diluted sample will yield 60 colonies and 10 ml will have 600 colonies and therefore the 1 ml undiluted sample will have 600 colonies.
