Question 7

Which of the following is the correct formula for calculating the molarity ($$M) of a $$solution?

Accepted Answer

$$M = \dfrac{	ext{moles of solute}}{	ext{liters of solution}}$$

Question 8

A sample of gas occupies $$2.0\ \mathrm{L} at$$ $$1.0\ \mathrm{atm}$$ and $$300\ \mathrm{K}. $$What will its volume be at $$2.0\ \mathrm{atm}$$ and $$300\ \mathrm{K}$$? (Assume ideal gas behavior.)

Accepted Answer

$$1.0\ \mathrm{L}$$

Question 9

Which of the following is a correct statement about ionization energy?

Accepted Answer

Ionization energy increases across a period from left to right.

Question 10

Which of the following is the correct balanced equation for the combustion of methane ($$\mathrm{CH_4$}$$)?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{CH_4$} + 2\mathrm{O_2$} \rightarrow \mathrm{CO_2$} + 2\mathrm{H_2O}$$

Question 11

Which of the following best describes the role of a catalyst in a chemical reaction?

Accepted Answer

A catalyst lowers the activation energy and increases the reaction rate.

Question 12

Which of the following is the correct electron dot structure for carbon dioxide ($$\mathrm{CO_2$}$$)?

Accepted Answer

O=C=O, with each O having two lone pairs

Question 13

Which of the following is a correct statement about polarity?

Accepted Answer

A molecule is nonpolar if its bond dipoles cancel out due to symmetry.

Which of the following is the correct formula for the ideal gas law?

Accepted Answer

$$PV = nRT$$

Question 15

Which of the following best explains why sodium chloride ($$\mathrm{NaCl}) $$conducts electricity when dissolved in water?

Accepted Answer

The ions in $$\mathrm{NaCl}$$ are free to move in solution, allowing electrical current to flow.
