The question is: Which solution listed below is going to have the highest boiling point? A. 1.5 m NaCl B. 1.5 m AgCl C. 2.0 m C6H12O6 D. 2.0 m CaCl2 E. 1.0 m Al2(SO4)3 I chose D (which was right) because in a solution, the more solute particles there is the higher the boiling point (this is...

Part D. I looked up the answer and input it already, which is why it says correct, but i am beyond stumped. No idea how to do this. I know the pressure at the dotted lines are equal and that pressure=force/area. I also know the pressure at an area is equal to whatever is above it so the pressure...

Hello! (Wave) Theorem:Let $K$ be a convex and closed subset of a Hilbert space $X$ and $x \in X$. Then there is a unique $y_x \in K$ such that $$||x-y_x||=d(x,K):=inf \{||x-y||: y \in K \}$$ Remarks: - if $K$ is not closed then the distance $d(x,K)$ isn't attained in general. If for example...

The point mass (aka particle) is a fictional but useful concept. However, I have yet been able to find a definition of what exactly a point mass is. It is commonly accepted that a point mass does not have an orientation, and thus only 3 coordinates to determine its position are required (as...
