- A 12-oz (355-mL) Pepsi contains 38.9 mg caffeine (molar mass = 194.2 g/mol). Assume that the Pepsi, mainly water, has a density of 1.01 g/mL. For such a Pepsi, calculate: (a) its caffeine concentration in ppm; (b) its molarity of caffeine; and (c) the molality of caffeine.arrow_forwardHow many grams of lactose must be added to 655 g of water in order to prepare each of the following percent-by-mass concentrations of aqueous lactose solution? a. 0.50% b. 2.00% c. 10.0% d. 25.0%arrow_forwardConsider the following aqueous solutions: (i) 0.20 m HOCH2CH2OH (nonvolatile, nonelectrolyte); (ii) 0.10 m CaCl2 (iii) 0.12 m KBr; and (iv) 0.12 m Na2SO4. (a) Which solution has the highest boiling point? (b) Which solution has the lowest freezing point? (c) Which solution has the highest water vapor pressure?arrow_forward
- A gaseous solute dissolves in water. The solution process has H=15 kJ. Its solubility at 22C and 6.00 atm is 0.0300 M. Would you expect the solubility to be greater or less at (a) 22C and 1 atm? (a) 18C and 6 atm? (a) 15C and 10 atm? (a) 35C and 3 atm?arrow_forwardSodium chloride (NaCl) is commonly used to melt ice on roads during the winter. Calcium chloride (CaCl2) is sometimes used for this purpose too. Let us compare the effectiveness of equal masses of these two compounds in lowering the freezing point of water, by calculating the freezing point depression of solutions containing 200. g of each salt in 1.00 kg of water. (An advantage of CaCl2 is that it acts more quickly because it is hygroscopic, that is. it absorbs moisture from the air to give a solution and begin the process. A disadvantage is that this compound is more costly.)arrow_forwardYou have read that adding a solute to a solvent can both increase the boiling point and decrease the freezing point. A friend of yours explains it to you like this: The solute and solvent can be like salt in water. The salt gets in the way of freezing in that it blocks the water molecules from joining together. The salt acts like a strong bond holding the water molecules together so that it is harder to boil. What do you say to your friend?arrow_forward
