<span>Percentage
by mass is the amount in mass of a component in a mixture per 100 unit of mass of the
total mixture. Percentage by mass is the same as %w/w. We can determine this by dividing the mass of the solute with the total mass of the mixture. However, from the problem statement, we are given the volume of the water so there is a need to convert this value to mass by using the density of water. We calculate as follows:
Mass of solution = 100 mL (0.99993 g/mL) water + 25 g EtOH
Mass of solution = 124.993 g solution
%w/w = 25 g / 124.993 g x100
%w/w = 20% of EtOH</span>
Anna lives in a city that is part of the tropical climate types. It has a constantly warm weather, and thus higher humidity, and according to the annual rainfall, it is most probably a rainfall that appears seasonally, not throughout the whole year.
Tim, on the other hand, lives in a city that is part of the dry climate types. It is most probably a place that is deep into the mainland, like the cold deserts of Central Asia, where the temperatures in the summer are high, and in winter are very low. Because of the distance from the sea, the rainfall doesn't reach this places, so they are very dry, and only have symbolic amount of annual rainfall.
Here we have to get the right answers which include the given phrase.
The correct answers are as following:
High boiling and melting points: Hydrogen bond increase the amount of energy required for phase changes to occur, thereby raising the boiling and melting points.
High specific heat: Hydrogen bond increase the amount of energy required for molecules to increase the speed, thereby raising the specific heat.
High surface tension: Hydrogen bonds produce strong inter molecular attractions, which increase surface tension.
The incorrect answer:
Lower density as a solid than as a liquid: actually, density of solid is more than density of liquid as hydrogen bonds in solid produce strong inter molecular attractions among molecules, which aggregates molecules together, hence volume of associated molecules reduces. Therefore, density of solid is more than that of liquid.
