Order these solutions in order of increasing boiling point, assuming an ideal van't Hoff factor for each: \(0.10 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_6, 0.06 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{NaCl}, 0.4 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{Au}\left(\mathrm{NO}_3\right)_3\), and \(0.4 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{Al}_2\left(\mathrm{SO}_4\right)_3\).

18. Order these solutions in order of decreasing osmotic pressure, assuming an ideal van't Hoff factor: \(0.1 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{HCl}, 0.1 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{CaCl}_2, 0.05 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{MgBr}_2\), and \(0.07 \mathrm{M}\) \(\mathrm{Ga}\left(\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{O}_2\right)_3\)

Answers

1. solvent: ethyl alcohol; solute: water

3. Saturated means all the possible solute that can dissolve is dissolved, whereas concentrated implies that a lot of solute is dissolved.

5. \(4.58 \mathrm{~g}\)

7. \(6.00 \mathrm{~L}\)

9. \(1.92 \mathrm{mg}\)

11. \(1.7 \times 10^{15}\) to \(3.4 \times 10^{15} \mathrm{~kg}\)

13. \(2,530 \mathrm{~g}\)

15. 2.80 ; it is less than 3 because not all ions behave as independent particles.

17. \(0.10 m \mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_6<0.06 m \mathrm{NaCl}<0.4 m \mathrm{Au}\left(\mathrm{NO}_3\right)_3<0.4 m \mathrm{Al}_2\left(\mathrm{SO}_4\right)_3\)
