#28
The energy associated with the ion-water attractions is not sufficient to overcome the
endothermic energetics of solute and solvent particle separation. Another principle exists and
operates in this case: processes that lead to an increase in the entropy of a system favor
spontaneous processes. The dissolving of a highly ordered crystalline RbCl in water leads to
solvated ions that now are able to move. This results in a net increase in the number of
microstates/arrangements of molecules in the system and permits the dissociation process to
occur.
#29
The key difference between the two concentration units is denominator. Molarity is calculated
using a volume, which is temperature dependent. So molarity varies with temperature while
molality is independent of temperature. When an aqueous solution is very dilute, the mass of the
solute contributes very little to density; thus there is essentially no difference between the
number of kilograms and the number of liters.
#30
The freezing-point depression is proportional to the molality of the solution. The two acids have
the same molality, but HCl is a strong acid and ionizes 100% while HF is a weak acid and ionizes to
a very small extent. The number of solute particles produced in the ionization of HCl is greater
than the number of particles produced in the ionization of HF. This results in a greater freezingpoint depression for HCl.
#31
The ΔT lowering for a 0.01m weak electrolyte solution is approximately ΔTf = Kfm = (1.86oC/m)
(0.01m) = 0.0186oC. Only the 0.01m CH3COOH solution has a ΔTf approximately equal to
0.0186oC; it is the only weak electrolyte. The other salt solutions produce freezing-point
depressions significantly greater than that of acetic acid; thus they are all strong electrolytes.
Since the 0.01m solution of Co(NH3)6Cl3 produces the greatest ΔTf lowering the molality of all
species in the solution is the largest; it forms the greatest number of ions in solution.
