When HClO2 is dissolved in water, it partially dissociates according to the equation

HClO2 → H+ + ClO2-. A solution is prepared that contains 5.850 g of HClO2 in 1.000 kg of water. Its freezing point is -0.3473 °C. Calculate the fraction of HClO2 that has dissociated.

x = 100 * 1.1897 = 118.97 %, which is > 100 meaning that all of the HClO2 dissociates

Explanation:

Recall that , depression present in freezing point is calculated with the formulae = solute particles Molarity x KF

0.3473 = m * 1.86

Solving, m = 0.187 m

Moles of HClO2 = mass / molar mass = 5.85 / 68.5 = 0.0854 mol

Molality = moles / mass of water in kg = 0.0854 / 1 = 0.0854 m

Initial molality

Assuming that a % x of the solute dissociates, we have the ICE table:

                 HClO2         H+    +   ClO2-

initial concentration:       0.0854                    0             0

final concentration:      0.0854(1-x/100)   0.0854x/100   0.0854x / 100

We see that sum of molality of equilibrium mixture = freezing point molality

0.0854( 1 - x/100 + x/100 + x/100) = 0.187

2.1897 = 1 + x / 100

x = 100 * 1.1897 = 118.97 %, which is > 100 meaning that all of the HClO2 dissociates

because u need two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei to form isotopes.

so since they all have the same shape? i mean maybe because m& m and reeses are both chocolates

fe 55.85 g/mol and h2o 18.02 g/mol.
