Imagine two solutions with the same concentration and the same boiling point, but one has ethanol as the solvent and the other has carbon tetrachloride as the solvent. determine that molal concentration, m (or b ), and boiling point, tb. given: ethanolnormal boiling point: 78.4kb: 1.22ccl4normal boiling point: 76.8kb: 5.03

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we use the boiling point elevation colligative property equation for both ethanol and carbon tetrachloride as shown below:

Now, since both the boiling point and the concentration of the solutions are equal, we solve a 2x2 system of lineal equations:

Subtracting the equations one obtains the molality (concentration):

Finally, solving for the boiling temperature of the solution one obtains:

a gas, having a molecular weight of 13 kg/kmol and a kinematic viscosity of 0.25 cm2/s, flows through a pipe 0.25 m internal diameter and 5 km long at the rate of 0.4 m3/s and is delivered at atmospheric pressure.

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).
