It takes 38.6 kJ of energy to vaporize 1.00 mol of ethanol (MW: 46.07 g/mol). What will be ΔSsys for the vaporization of 8.00 g of ethanol at 79.6 °C
Answer:
[tex]\Delta S_{sys}=0.020kJ=20J[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, given the required energy to vaporize 1.00 mol of ethanol as the enthalpy of vaporization:
[tex]\Delta H_{vap}=\frac{38.6kJ}{1.00mol}=38.6kJ/mol[/tex]
We can compute the entropy of the system for the vaporization of 8.00 g of ethanol, by first computing the moles:
[tex]n_{et}=8.00g*\frac{1mol}{46.07g} =0.174mol[/tex]
And then setting up the following expression:
[tex]\Delta S_{sys}=\frac{n_{et}*\Delta H_{vap}}{T}[/tex]
Whereas the temperature is in kelvins; thus, we obtain:
[tex]\Delta S_{sys}=\frac{0.174mol*38.6\frac{kJ}{mol} }{79.6+273.15K}\\\\\Delta S_{sys}=0.020kJ=20J[/tex]
Best regards!
The entropy of the system ([tex]\Delta S_{sys}[/tex]) for the vaporization of 8.00 grams of ethanol at 79.6 °C is 0.0190 kilojoules.
Given the following data:
Quantity of energy = 38.6 kJNumber of moles of ethanol = 1 moleMolar mass of ethanol = 46.07 g/molMass of ethanol = 8 gramsTemperature = 79.6 °CConversion:
Temperature = [tex]79.6 + 273 = 352.6 \;K[/tex]
To find the entropy of the system ([tex]\Delta S_{sys}[/tex]) for the vaporization of 8.00 grams of ethanol at 79.6 °C:
First of all, we would determine the heat of vaporization.
[tex]Heat\; of \;vaporization = \frac{Energy}{moles} \\\\Heat\; of \;vaporization = \frac{38.6}{1}[/tex]
Heat of vaporization = 38.6 kJ/mol.
Next, we would determine the number of moles in 8.00 grams of ethanol:
[tex]Number\;of\;moles = \frac{mass}{molar\;mass}\\\\Number\;of\;moles = \frac{8}{46.07}\\\\Number\;of\;moles = 0.1737 \;moles[/tex]
Mathematically, the entropy of a system ([tex]\Delta S_{sys}[/tex]) is given by the formula:
[tex]\Delta S_{sys} = \frac{n\Delta H }{T}[/tex]
Where:
n is the number of moles.T is the temperature.[tex]\Delta H[/tex] is the heat of vaporization.Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
[tex]\Delta S_{sys} = \frac{0.1737 \times 38.6 }{352.6}\\\\\Delta S_{sys} = \frac{6.7048 }{352.6}\\\\\Delta S_{sys} = 0.0190 \;kJ[/tex]

The hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is represented by the equation below. This reaction is critically important in cellular biology, but the reaction itself proceeds at a very slow rate. Based on the information given, which of the following best explains why an enzyme (biological catalyst) is required for the reaction to occur at a faster rate?
ATP+ H2O ADP+ Pi
ΔG= -30.5Kj/mol
a. Because ΔG < 0, the hydrolysis of ATP is not thermodynamically favorable. In cells, ΔS is increased by increasing the amount of H2O consumed, resulting in ΔG >0 and an increase in the reaction rate.
b. Because ΔG < 0, the hydrolysis of ATP is not thermodynamically favorable. In cells, enzymes act as catalysts that decrease ΔH for the reaction, resulting in ΔG >0 and an increase in the reaction rate.
c. Although the hydrolysis of ATP is thermodynamically favorable, without a catalyst the reaction occurs at a very slow rate because it has a small activation energy.
d. Although the hydrolysis of ATP is thermodynamically favorable, without a catalyst the reaction occurs at a very slow rate because it has a large activation energy.
Answer:
d. Although the hydrolysis of ATP is thermodynamically favorable, without a catalyst the reaction occurs at a very slow rate because it has a large activation energy.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since negative Gibbs free energies of reaction stand for thermodynamically favored processes, we can immediately rule out choices a. and b.
Moreover, since the reaction is slow without the presence of a catalyst, which the context of biochemistry is an enzyme, we infer that correct choice is d. Although the hydrolysis of ATP is thermodynamically favorable, without a catalyst the reaction occurs at a very slow rate because it has a large activation energy because the higher the activation energy the slower the reaction according to the Arrhenius equation.

Answer:
[tex]n =1.905mol[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, by considering helium gas as an ideal one, we can use the following equation:
[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]
Whereas P should go in atmospheres and T in Kelvins; thus we proceed as follows:
[tex]n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{132kPa*\frac{1atm}{101.325kPa}*36L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}(27+273)K} =1.905mol[/tex]

A student is given a sample of matter and asked to determine whether it is an element, compound, or mixture. The student discovers that she cannot separate
the components of the sample by physical means. However, she is able to separate the sample by chemical means into three different pure substances. The
sample must be______.
A. an element
B. a compound
C. a mixture
D. a solution
Answer is B
A mixture means two compounds mixed together but not atomically. For example, sand and water solution. A water with sand mixed inside is a mixture because the sand can be separated by physical means.
Water is H2O. This means it is a compound, because hydrogen and oxygen is bonded together atomically. Hydrogen however is an element, because you can't seperate it anymore (You could seperate it in the sense of protons and neutrons, but the definition of element is something you can see on the periodic table)
Compound means more than one element bonded together.
The sample must be a compound because it couldn't be seperated by physical means but can be seperated by chemical means into three pure substances (synonym of element)
What is the percent composition of dinotrogen pentoxide? With work shown please
Answer:
%N = 25.94%
%O = 74.06%
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the mass of nitrogen in 1 mole of N₂O₅
We will multiply the molar mass of N by the number of N atoms in the formula of N₂O₅.
m(N): 2 × 14.01 g = 28.02 g
Step 2: Calculate the mass of oxygen in 1 mole of N₂O₅
We will multiply the molar mass of O by the number of O atoms in the formula of N₂O₅.
m(O): 5 × 16.00 g = 80.00 g
Step 3: Calculate the mass of 1 mole of N₂O₅
We will sum the masses of N and O.
m(N₂O₅) = m(N) + m(O) = 28.02 g + 80.00 g = 108.02 g
Step 4: Calculate the percent composition of N₂O₅
We will use the following expression.
%Element = m(Element)/m(Compound) × 100%
%N = m(N)/m(N₂O₅) × 100% = 28.02 g/108.02 g × 100% = 25.94%
%O = m(O)/m(N₂O₅) × 100% = 80.00 g/108.02 g × 100% = 74.06%

What is the purity of KBr?
Answer:
98.68%
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced equation
KBr + AgNO₃ ⇒ AgBr + KNO₃
Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 814.5 mg (0.8145 g) of AgBr
The molar mass of AgBr is 187.77 g/mol.
0.8145 g × 1 mol/187.77 g = 4.338 × 10⁻³ mol
Step 3: Calculate the moles of KBr needed to produce 4.338 × 10⁻³ moles of AgBr
The molar ratio of KBr to AgBr is 1:1. The moles of KBr needed are 1/1 × 4.338 × 10⁻³ mol = 4.338 × 10⁻³ mol.
Step 4: Calculate the pure mass corresponding to 4.338 × 10⁻³ moles of KBr
The molar mass of KBr is 119.00 g/mol.
4.338 × 10⁻³ mol × 119.00 g/mol = 0.5162 g
Step 5: Calculate the purity of KBr
0.5162 g of KBr are in a 0.5231 g-sample. The purity of KBr is:
P = 0.5162 g/0.5231 g × 100% = 98.68%

A sample of potassium has an average atomic mass of 39.0983amu. There are three isotopic forms of potassium element in the sample. About 93.2581% of the potassium atoms are 38.9637amu mass (39K); 0.0117% are 39.9639amu mass (40K), and the remaining isotope 41K is of 40.9618amu mass. Calculate the percentage composition of 41K. Report your answer with five significant figures.
Answer:
Percent Composition of 41K = 6.7302%
Explanation:
The explination is in the image.
The percentage composition of 41K isotope of potassium according to the given data is 6.7302 percent.
Composition of isotopes:Given that the atomic masses of the potassium isotopes are:
mass of 39K = 38.9637amu
mass of 40K = 39.9639amu
mass of 41K = 40.9618amu
and the percentages are:
percentage of 39K = 93.2581%
percentage of 40K = 0.0117%
percentage of 41K = x
Given average mass of potassium = 39.0983amu
sum (mass of isotopes × percentage abundance) = average mass
38.9637 × 93.2581% + 39.9639 × 0.0117% + 40.9618 × x = 39.0983
x = 6.7302%
So the percentage composition of 41K is 6.7302%

Liquid hexane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 17.2 g of hexane is mixed with 19. g of oxygen. Calculate the maximum mass of carbon dioxide that could be produced by the chemical reaction. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
Answer:
16.5g of CO₂ could be produced
Explanation:
The combustion of hexane occurs as follows:
C₆H₁₄(l) + 19/2O₂ → 6CO₂ + 7H₂O
Where 1 mole of hexane reacts with 19/2 moles of O₂.
To solve this question we need to find the moles of each reactant in order to find limiting reactant. The moles of the limiting reactant will determine the moles of CO₂ produced:
Moles C₆H₁₄ -Molar mass: 86.18g/mol-:
17.2g hexane * (1mol / 86.18g) = 0.200 moles hexane
Moles O₂ -Molar mass: 32g/mol-:
19g O₂ * (1mol / 32g) = 0.594 moles oxygen.
For a complete reaction of 0.594 moles of oxygen are required:
0.594 moles O₂ * (1mol C₆H₁₄ / 19/2 moles O₂) = 0.0625 moles C₆H₁₄.
As there are 0.200 moles of hexane, hexane is the excess reactant and oxygen the limiting reactant.
The moles of CO₂ produced assuming a yield of 100% -All moles of oxygen react producing carbon dioxide.:
0.594 moles O₂ * (6mol CO₂ / 19/2 moles O₂) = 0.375 moles of CO₂ could be produced. The mass is:
0.375 moles of CO₂ * (44.01g / mol) =
16.5g of CO₂ could be produced2NH3+2O2- N2O+3H2O
If 80.0 grams of O2 reacted in above reaction ,how many grams of N2O will be produced?
Answer:
55.0125 grams NO2
Explanation:
So we have 80 grams of O2, first convert to moles
80 g O2 * 1 mol/32 g O2 = 2.5 mol O2
Next use the mole ratio of O2 to NO2
2.5 mol O2* 1 mol NO2/2 mol NO2=1.25 mol NO2
Since the question is asking how many grams, convert NO2 to grams
1.25 mol NO2 * 44.01 NO2/1 mol NO2= 55.0125 grams

2.hiding an object from an illumination containing diffre t wave lengths become difficult as the object sizes grow.
3. reduce the scattering by two orders.
Electromagnetic waves are unable to detect it. With increasing item sizes, it becomes more challenging to conceal an object from an illumination with various wave lengths. two orders down on the scattering.
What is current cloaking technology?
Current clocking technology is defined as a hypothetical or made-up stealth technology that makes things like people or spaceships completely or partially invisible to certain electromagnetic (EM) spectrum wavelengths. In a specific frequency band, this gadget renders an object "invisible" to electromagnetic radiation. Obviously, cloaks that operate in the visible spectrum have the most fascinating potential uses.
These metamaterials, according to the researchers, can shield a medium-sized antenna from radio waves over a wide range of bandwidths, resulting in clearer communications. However, as visible light wavelengths are far shorter than radio waves, it is practically difficult to conceal huge things from them, such as the human body. The issue with present designs is that they can only handle a certain amount of bandwidth. Even this "perfect" 3D cloak that was previously exhibited could only conceal items from microwaves.
Thus, electromagnetic waves are unable to detect it. With increasing item sizes, it becomes more challenging to conceal an object from an illumination with various wave lengths. two orders down on the scattering.

A normal adult jawbone contains 200 mg of Carbon-14 in a living person. If scientists found a jawbone that only had 50mg of Carbon-14, how old is the bone? (The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years).
Carbon-14 is a radioisotope of carbon that decays following first-order kinetics. There are four values of interest in this problem: the "normal" (or original) amount of carbon-14 for a jawbone ([tex]\mathrm{N_0}[/tex]), the actual amount of carbon-14 in a jawbone ([tex]\mathrm{N}[/tex]), the half-life of carbon-14 ([tex]\mathrm{t_{1/2}}[/tex]), and the actual time elapsed ([tex]\mathrm{t}[/tex]) from the original time. There is an equation that ties all these values in together,
[tex]N= N_0 e^{-kt}[/tex]
where k is the rate constant, which, for first-order decay, is related to the half-life by
[tex]k = \dfrac{\ln 2}{ t_{1/2} }.[/tex]
What you want to find here is the time elapsed (t). So, you can substitute the latter equation for k into the k in the former equation to get
[tex]N= N_0 e^{\frac{-\ln 2 \;t}{t_{1/2}}.[/tex]
Rearranging to solve for t, the equation becomes
[tex]t = \left(\dfrac{\ln \dfrac{N_0}{N}}{\ln 2} \right) t_{1/2}.[/tex]
You are given all three of the values necessary to solve for t: The normal amount of carbon-14 is 200 mg; the actual amount of carbon-14 in the sample is 50 mg; and the half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. Plugging them into the above equation, we get
[tex]t = \left(\dfrac{\ln \dfrac{200 \text{ mg}}{50 \text{ mg}}}{\ln 2} \right) \left(5730 \text{ years} \right) = 11460 \text{ years}.[/tex]
So the jawbone found is 11460 years old (or 11000 if accounting for sig figs).

For the following reaction, 29.9 grams of sulfur dioxide are allowed to react with 6.26 grams of oxygen gas . sulfur dioxide(g) + oxygen(g) sulfur trioxide(g) What is the maximum mass of sulfur trioxide that can be formed? grams What is the FORMULA for the limiting reagent? What mass of the excess reagent remains after the reaction is complete? grams
Answer: a) The maximum mass of sulfur trioxide that can be formed is 31.4 grams
b) The FORMULA for the limiting reagent is [tex]O_2[/tex]
c) Mass of excess reagent remains is 4.8 grams
Explanation:
To calculate the moles :
[tex]\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Moles of} SO_2=\frac{29.9g}{64g/mol}=0.467moles[/tex]
[tex]\text{Moles of} O_2=\frac{6.26g}{32g/mol}=0.196moles[/tex]
[tex]2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)[/tex]
According to stoichiometry :
1 mole of [tex]O_2[/tex] require = 2 moles of [tex]SO_2[/tex]
Thus 0.196 moles of [tex]O_2[/tex] will require=[tex]\frac{2}{1}\times 0.196=0.392moles[/tex] of [tex]SO_2[/tex]
Thus [tex]O_2[/tex] is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and [tex]SO_2[/tex] is the excess reagent as (0.467-0.392) = 0.075 moles or [tex]0.075mol\times 64g/mol=4.8g[/tex] are left.
As 1 mole of [tex]O_2[/tex] give = 2 moles of [tex]SO_3[/tex]
Thus 0.196 moles of [tex]O_2[/tex] give =[tex]\frac{2}{1}\times 0.196=0.392moles[/tex] of [tex]SO_3[/tex]
Mass of [tex]SO_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.392moles\times 80g/mol=31.4g[/tex]
Thus 31.4 g of [tex]SO_3[/tex] will be produced from the given masses of both reactants.
