- Why is it important to know if a substance is a molecular compound or an ionic compound before predicting its effect on the boiling and freezing points of a solvent? Ionic compounds dissociate, resulting in more particles in solution, which affects the b.p. and f.p. Molecular compounds dissociate easier than ionic compounds, thereby having a greater effect on the b.p. and f.p. Ionic compounds have higher boiling points and lower freezing points than molecular compounds Ionic compounds have the opposite effect on freezing and boiling points than molecular compounds. Molecular compounds have greater intermolecular forces than ionic compounds Molecular compounds have a greater effect on the van't Hoff factor than ionic compoundsarrow_forwardNonearrow_forwardhelp with two part questionarrow_forward
- The position of the phases in the separatory funnel (whether the top or bottom phase) is dependent on the relative densities of the solvents. Complete table 1 to indicate whether each of the solvents will be on the top or bottom layer. Table 1. Solubility properties of common organic solvents.

More than one answer may be correct. Using ice to cool the sample will speed up the crystallization process so that large crystals will be formed. It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent. O Ideally the hot solvent used will keep the impurities dissolved OR not dissolve them at all. Enough cold solvent should be added to dissolve the sample BEFORE heating it past its boiling point.arrow_forwardThe vapor pressure of pure water at 25 °C is 23.8 torr. Determine the vapor pressure (torr) of water at 25 °C above a solution prepared by dissolving 15.0 g of urea (a nonvolatile, non-electrolyte, MW = 60.0 g/mol)in 120. g of water.
