List and explain if each of the following solutions conducts an electric current:
sodium chloride (NaCl), hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sugar (C6H12O6).
Sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound and conducts since it forms ions in
solution. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a polar compound and conducts since it
forms ions in solution. Sugar (C6H12O6) is a molecular compound but does not form
ions in solution so it does not conduct.
Question 2

Explain how and why the presence of a solute affects the boiling point of a solvent.
The presence of a solute raises the boiling point of a solvent by lowering the vapor
pressure of the solvent. With this lower vapor pressure, more heat (a higher
boiling point) is required to raise the vapor pressure to atmospheric pressure.

, Rank and explain how the freezing point of 0.100 m solutions of the following ionic
electrolytes compare, List from lowest freezing point to highest freezing point.
GaCl3, Al2(SO4)3, NaI, MgCl2
Your Answer:
Al2(SO4)3 -> 2Al3+, 3SO4 -2 = = 5 ions -> most ions = lowest freezing point
GaCl2 -> Ga3+, Cl- = 4 ions
MgCl2 = 3 ions
NaI = 2 ions - > least ions = highest freezing point
GaCl3 → Ga+3 + 3 Cl
-
∆tf = 1.86 x 0.1 x 4 =
3rd lowest FP
3 SO4
Al2(SO4)3 → 2 Al+3 + -3
∆tf = 1.86 x 0.1 x 5 =
lowest FP
NaI → Na+ + I- ∆tf = 1.86 x 0.1 x 2
= highest FP
MgCl2 → Mg+2 + 2 Cl- ∆tf = 1.86 x 0.1 x 3
= 2nd lowest FP
FP: Al2(SO4)3 < GaCl3 < MgCl2 < NaI
