Why does the antifreeze ethylene glycol,
HO-CH2-CH2-OH, molar mass 62.07 g/mol, have a much higher higher
boiling point (197.6°C) than propanol (97.4°C), CH3-CH3-CH2-OH,
molar mass 60.09 g/mol, even though they have similar molar
masses?

The Ostwald process is used commercially to produce nitric acid, which is, in turn, used in many modern chemical processes. In the first step of the Ostwald process, ammonia is reacted with oxygen gas to produce nitric oxide and water. \(4NH_{3}(g)+5O_{2} --> 4NO+6H_{2}O(g)\) What is the maximum mass of H2O that can be produced by combining 72.0 g of each reactant?

A 0.1358-g portion of potassium iodate (MW 214.00), about 2 g of
potassium
iodide, and 2 mL of 6 M hydrochloric acid were dissolved in 25 mL
of distilled
water. The triiodide formed during the ensuring reaction was
titrated to the
starch end point with 31.94 mL of a thiosulfate solution. A
25.00-mL triiodide
sample solution was titrated to the end point with 21.33 mL of the
standardized
thiosulfate solution. Calculate the concentrations of the
thiosulfate solution and
the triiodide solution.
