To verify the previous experiment, the chemistry student carried out the next experiment and recorded the data for you in the following Data Table. Directions: Place 100 mL of filtered, saturated PbCl2 in a 150 mL beaker and put it under a dryer to evaporate the water. Record the necessary data in the Data Table.

Complete the Data Table.

Since the data allows it, you should use 3 significant digits for all your answers.

Molecular weight of PbCl2 = 278 g/mole

Mass of beaker + PbCl2 = 62.19 g

Mass of beaker = 57.77 g

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.
