Molality is obtained by dividing the number of moles of solute by the mass in kilogram of the solvent. None of the dimensions is dependent in temperature. On the other hand, molarity is obtained by dividing the number of moles of solute by the volume in liters of the solution. Volume is temperature dependent.
Answer:D - adding a catalyst
Explanation:
1. The reactivity among the alkali metals increases as you go down the group due to the decrease in the effective nuclear charge from the increased shielding by the greater number of electrons. The greater the atomic number, the weaker the hold on the valence electron the nucleus has, and the more easily the element can lose the electron. Conversely, the lower the atomic number, the greater pull the nucleus has on the valence electron, and the less readily would the element be able to lose the electron (relatively speaking). Thus, in the first set comprising group I elements, sodium (Na) would be the least likely to lose its valence electron (and, for that matter, its core electrons).
2. The elements in this set are the group II alkaline earth metals, and they follow the same trend as the alkali metals. Of the elements here, beryllium (Be) would have the highest effective nuclear charge, and so it would be the least likely to lose its valence electrons. In fact, beryllium has a tendency not to lose (or gain) electrons, i.e., ionize, at all; it is unique among its congeners in that it tends to form covalent bonds.
3. While the alkali and alkaline earth metals would lose electrons to attain a noble gas configuration, the group VIIA halogens, as we have here, would need to gain a valence electron for an full octet. The trends in the group I and II elements are turned on their head for the halogens: The smaller the atomic number, the less shielding, and so the greater the pull by the nucleus to gain a valence electron. And as the atomic number increases (such as when you go down the group), the more shielding there is, the weaker the effective nuclear charge, and the lesser the tendency to gain a valence electron. Bromine (Br) has the largest atomic number among the halogens in this set, so an electron would feel the smallest pull from a bromine atom; bromine would thus be the least likely here to gain a valence electron.
4. The pattern for the elements in this set (the group VI chalcogens) generally follows that of the halogens. The greater the atomic number, the weaker the pull of the nucleus, and so the lesser the tendency to gain electrons. Tellurium (Te) has the highest atomic number among the elements in the set, and so it would be the least likely to gain electrons.
The question incomplete , the complete question is:
A student dissolves of 18.0 g urea in 200.0 mL of a solvent with a density of 0.95 g/mL . The student notices that the volume of the solvent does not change when the urea dissolves in it. Calculate the molarity and molality of the student's solution. Round both of your answers to significant digits.
Answer:
The molarity and molality of the student's solution is 1.50 Molar and 1.58 molal.
Explanation:
Moles of urea = 
Volume of the solution = 200.0 mL = 0.2 L (1 mL = 0.001 L)
Molarity of the urea solution ;
Mass of solvent = m
Volume of solvent = V = 200.0 mL
Density of the urea = d = 0.95 g/mL
(1 g = 0.001 kg)
Molality of the urea solution ;
The molarity and molality of the student's solution is 1.50 Molar and 1.58 molal.
The first element discovered through synthesis was technetium<span>—its discovery being definitely confirmed in 1936. Hope that helps.</span>
