Answer 1

Answer:  The bonds that are made and broken in a reaction release energy when forming products that contain less total energy than the reactants.

Explanation:  Elements form bonds with each other when the total energy of the resulting products is less than the starting energy.  The term "energy" refers to the energy of the electrons that are being held in an atom by the nucleus.  Keeping the positively charged nucleus happy means that the electrons are trying to get closer, but they repel each other as they get closer to the nucleus.  This results in orbits, preferred areas around the nucleus where the electrons spend their day in a delicate balance with the nucleus and other electrons.  These orbits offer housing for the electrons that involve discreet energies for the electrons.  When elements react, the resulting bonding pattern often results in an overall reduction in total energy.  The energy reduction results in heat, light, and/or sound.  The release is termed "exothermic."

How many joules are required to melt 80 grams of ice to water at 0 C?

In this problem we would like to calculate the heat needed to melt 35 grams of ice at 0 °C. This problem can be broken into three steps:

1. Calculate moles of water

2. multiply by the enthalpy of fusion

One last note, if the temperature were not 0 °C then the ice would have to be heated in addition to melted. This would be a phase change problem combined with a heat capacity problem.

What is the volume of a canister filled with gas if its pressure is changed to 9.8 atm from 2.5 atm at a volume of 9.1 L?

Answers

Answer:

2.3 L

Explanation:

A change in pressure-volume at constant temperature is described by the Boyle's law. The mathematical relationship between initial pressure and volume (P₁ and V₁) and final pressure and volume (P₂ and V₂) is given by:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

We have the following data:

initial pressure: P₁= 2.5 atm

initial volume: V₁ = 9.1 L

final pressure: P₂= 9.8 atm

Thus, we introduce the data in the mathematical expression and calculate the final volume V₂, as follows:

V₂ = P₁V₁/P₂ = (2.5 atm x 9.1 L)/9.8 atm = 2.3 L

Therefore, the volume of the canister is 2.3 L.

Se tienen 1.5 litros de hipoclorito de sodio concrntrado (6.1%) y se requiere preparar 1.0 litros de hipoclorito de sodio al 0.5% URGE!!!!!! POR FAVOR

Answers

Answer:

Tomar 82 mL de solución concentrada y agregar agua hasta un volumen final de 1.0 L.

Explanation:

Tenemos una solución concentrada de hipoclorito de sodio, cuya concentración es 6.1%, por lo tanto:

Cc = 6.1 %

Y debemos hacer una dilucion para obtener una solucion diluida con:

Cd = 0.5%

Vd = 1.0 L

Por lo tanto, podemos usar la siguiente fórmula para calcular el volumen a tomar de solucion concentrada (Vc):

Cc x Vc = Cd x Vd

⇒ Vc = (Cd x Vd)/Cc = (0.5% x 1.0 L)/6.1% = 0.082 L

0.082 L x 1000 mL/1 L = 82 mL

Por lo tanto, para preparar la solución debemos tomar 82 mL de solucion concentrada de hipoclorito de sodio 6.1% y agregar agua hasta un volumen final de 1.0 L.

If you want to know the mass percent of a substance in a compound.

Simple formula:

Mass percent=Mass of the substance×100/Total mass of the compound

A gas occupies 12.3 L at a temperature of 40.0 K. What is the volume when the temperature is increased to 60.0 K?

Answers

Answer:

the volume is 18.45 L

Explanation:

The computation of the volume when the temperature is increased to 60.0 K is shown below:

Since the gas occupied 12.3 L at a temperature of 40.0 k

And, the volume when the new temperature is 60.0 k

So, the volume is

= 60.0 k × 12.3 L ÷ 40.0 k

= 18.45 L

hence,  the volume is 18.45 L

For the reaction of C 2H 4( g) with O 2( g), to form CO 2( g) and H 2O( g), what number of grams of CO 2 could be produced from 2.0 g of C 2H 4 and 5.0 g of O 2?

Answers

Answer:

4.58g of CO₂ could be produced

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

C₂H₄(g) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)

1 mole of C₂H₄ reacts with 3 moles of oxygen to produce 2 moles of CO₂

To solve this question we must find the moles of each reactant in order to find limiting reactant. With limiting reactant we can find the moles -And the mass- of CO₂ produced:

Moles C₂H₄ -Molar mass: 28.05g/mol-

2.0g * (1mol / 28.05g) = 0.0713moles

Moles O₂ -Molar mass: 32g/mol-

5.0g * (1mol / 32g) = 0.156moles

For a complete reaction of 0.0713 moles of C2H4 are required:

0.0713 moles C₂H₄ * (3 moles O₂ / 1 mol C₂H₄) = 0.214 moles of O₂

As there are just 0.156 moles, O₂ is limiting reactant.

The moles of CO₂ produced are:

0.156 moles O₂ * (2mol CO₂ / 3mol O₂) = 0.104 moles CO₂

The mass is -Molar mass CO₂: 44.01g/mol-

0.104 moles CO₂ * (44.01g / mol) =

4.58g of CO₂ could be produced

Air is made of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases. What is the pressure of O₂, total is 1 atm if PN₂ = 593.4 mm Hg, PCO₂ = 3.0 mm Hg, and Pothers = 7.1 mm Hg? *

0.3 atm
0.2 atm
0.4 atm
0.8 atm

Answers

Answer:

The pressure of O₂ is 0.8 atm.

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a particular gas in a mixture is known as its partial pressure. So, Dalton's law states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone:

PT = PA + PB

This relationship is due to the assumption that there are no attractive forces between the gases.

In this case:

PT=Pnitrogen + Pcarbon dioxide + Pother gases

Being:

Pnitrogen: 593.4 mmHg Pcarbon dioxide: 3 mmHgPother gases: 7.1 mmHg

and replacing:

PT= 593.4 mmHg + 3 mmHg + 7.1 mmHg

you get:

PT= 603.5 mmHg

Being 760 mmHg= 1 atm, you get:

PT= 603.5 mmHg= 0.8 atm

The pressure of O₂ is 0.8 atm.

temperature.
a. 0.66 atm
b. 1.5 atm
c. 500. atm
d. 1130 atm

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.66 atm

Explanation:

Pi = 750 torr = 0.99 atm. Pf = ?

Vi = 400 ml Vf = 600ml

Using PiVi = PfVf

Then 400ml × 0.99atm = Pfatm × 600ml

Solving for Pf, we have,

Pf = (400ml × 0.99atm)/600ml

Pf = 0.66atm

- atoms of element L are more reactive than atoms of element M
-both elements are metals

The students had to use the information on n the flash cards to determine possible positions of the two elements on a blank periodic table. Which periodic table has the elements placed in the locations that match the information on the flash cards?

Answers

Answer:

What is periodic table?

The term "periodic table" refers to an arrangement of all known elements in order of increasing atomic number and recurrent chemical attributes. The periodic table is organized into 118 elements.

The term "periodic table" can also refer to a table that lists all known chemical elements in rows and columns.

In the F table, L is found in alkaline earth metals while M is found in transition metals. M has more valence electrons than L, while L is more reactive than M.

Thus, the  periodic table has the elements placed in the locations that match the information on the flash cards is F.
