Which Of The Following Substances Would You Expect To Have A Low Melting Point?A. Carbon DioxideB. Silicon

Answers

Answer 1
The substance you would expect to have a low melting point would be carbon dioxide, so the correct answer would be A
Answer 2

Ionic compounds have higher melting point than covalent compounds.

Carbon dioxide have lower melting point (-56.6 °C) among the given compounds.

What is melting point?

Melting point is the temperature at which the substance melts into liquid thus at this temperature its solid state and liquid state are in equilibrium. Melting point is depend upon the bond type and mass of the compound.

Ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds and hence ionic compounds have higher melting point than covalent compounds. Hence, lithium chloride and calcium bromide have higher melting point.

Silicon is bigger than carbon thus silicon dioxide melts at higher temperature.  Carbon dioxide is purely covalent and melts at negative temperatures.

Hence, the compound with lower melting point here is carbon dioxide thus, option A is correct.

A chemist conducts an experiment in which 2.0 L of hydrogen gas is collected over water at 1 atm and 298 K. Remember the pressure due to the hydrogen gas is 0.97 atm. Using the combined gas law, calculate the volume in L of the dry hydrogen gas at 273 K and a pressure of 1 atm.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]V_2=1.80L[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since in this problem we can see that the volume, pressure and temperature are changing, considering that the vapor pressure of water at 0 °C or also 273 K is 0.006 atm, the pressure of dry hydrogen would be 0.99 atm, thus, we can write:

[tex]\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} =\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

Now, as we need the final volume V2, by solving for it, we write:

[tex]V_2=\frac{P_1V_1T_2}{T_1P_2}[/tex]

In such a way, we plug in the given data to obtain:

[tex]V_2=\frac{0.97atm*2.0L*273K}{298K*0.99atm}\\\\V_2=1.80L[/tex]

Which means that the underwent a compression.

Best regards!

Taking into account the combined gas law, the volume of the dry hydrogen gas at 273 K and a pressure of 1 atm is 1.78 L.

Gay Lussac's Law

Gay-Lussac's law states that when there is a constant volume, as the temperature increases, the pressure of the gas increases. And when the temperature is decreased, the pressure of the gas decreases.

Mathematically, this law indicates that the quotient between pressure and temperature is constant:

[tex]\frac{P}{T}=k[/tex]

Boyle's Law

Boyle's law says that the volume occupied by a certain gaseous mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure.

Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:

P× V = k

Charles's law

Charles's law states that for a given sum of gas at constant pressure, as the temperature increases, the volume of the gas increases and as the temperature decreases, the volume of the gas decreases. That is, temperature and volume are directly proportional.

In summary, Charles's law is a law that says that when the amount of gas and pressure are kept constant, the ratio that exists between the volume and the temperature will always have the same value:

[tex]\frac{V}{T}=k[/tex]

Combined gas law

Combined law equation is the combination of three gas laws called Boyle's, Charlie's and Gay-Lusac's law:

[tex]\frac{PxV}{T}=k[/tex]

Studying two different states, an initial state 1 and a final state 2, it is satisfied:

[tex]\frac{P1xV1}{T1}=\frac{P2xV2}{T2}[/tex]

This case

In this case you know:

P1= 0.97 atmV1= 2 LT1= 298 KP2= 1 atmV2= ?T2= 273 atm

Replacing in the combined gas law:

[tex]\frac{0.97 atmx2 L}{298 K}=\frac{1 atmxV2}{273 K}[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]\frac{0.97 atmx2 L}{298 K}\frac{273 K}{1 atm} =V2[/tex]

1.78 L= V2

In summary, the volume of the dry hydrogen gas at 273 K and a pressure of 1 atm is 1.78 L.

What is meant by the "frequency of light"? What symbol is used for it, and what is the SI unit for frequency?

Answers

Answer: Units. The SI derived unit of frequency is the hertz (Hz), named after the German physicist Heinrich Hertz. One hertz means that an event repeats once per second.

The frequency is the number of waves that pass a point in space during any time interval, usually one second. We measure it in units of cycles (waves) per second, or hertz. The frequency of visible light is referred to as color, and ranges from 430 trillion hertz, seen as red, to 750 trillion hertz, seen as violet.

Frequency of an electromagnetic wave is the number of wave cycles per unit time. The SI unit of frequency is Hertz or Hz. Frequency is represented by the symbol v called neu.

What is electromagnetic wave?

Waves are propagation or transfer of energy through air or vacuum. An electromagnetic wave is associated with a combined electric field and magnetic field.

Waves are associated with characteristic frequency and wavelength. Wavelength of a wave is the distance between its two consecutive crests or troughs.

Frequency of a wave is the number of wave cycles per unit time. Its is expressed in the unit of Hertz or Hz. Frequency and wavelength are in inverse relation. The shortest waves have greater energy and greater frequency.

Frequency is inverse of time of propagation. So that it can also be used in s⁻¹ which is equal to one hertz.

What element in period 4 has the lowest ionization energy? noble gas, alkali metal, halogen or alkaline earth metal?

Answers

Answer:

alkali metal

Explanation:

The alkali metals in period 4 will have the lowest ionization energy of the elements in the period.

Across a period ionization energy increases progressively from left to right due to decreasing atomic radii caused by the increasing nuclear charge which is not compensated for by successive electronic shells.

Ionization energy is the energy needed to remove the most loosely bound electrons of an atom in the gas phase in the ground state. The measure of the readiness of an atom to lose an electron is the ionization energy.

Down a group, it decreases.

The periodic table is the arrangement of the elements based on the atomic numbers. The elements of the alkali period have the lowest ionization energy.

What is ionization energy?

Ionization energy or the potential is the amount of the potential needed by the molecule or the atom to remove the electron from their shells. The alkali metal elements have the lowest ionization energy.

The ionization potential of the elements increases from the left towards the right of the period due to the decrease in the atomic radii and decreases from top to bottom in a group.

In the period from left to right the atomic radius of the atoms decreases due to the increase in the nuclear charge of the atoms.

Therefore, option B. alkali metal has the lowest ionization energy.

A compound composed of 3.3% H, 19.3% C, and 77.4% O3.3% H, 19.3% C, and 77.4% O has a molar mass of approximately 60 g/mol.. What is the molecular formula of the compound?

Answers

Answer:

Molecular formula of the compound = H₂CO₃

Explanation:

First, the empirical formula of the compound is determined

Percentage by mass of each element is given as shown below:

H = 3.3% ; C = 19.9%; O = 77.4%

Mole ratio of the elements= percentage mass/ molar mass

H = 3.3/ 1 = 3.3

C = 19.3/12 = 1.6

O = 77.4/16 = 4.8

whole number ratio is obtained by dividing through with the smallest ratio

H = 3.3/1.6; C = 1.6/1.6; O = 4.8/1.6

H : C : O = 2 : 1 : 3

Empirical formula = H₂CO₃

Molecular formula/mass = n(empirical formula/mass)

60 = n(2*1 + 12*1 + 16*3)

60 = n(62)

n = 60/62 = 0.96

n is approximately = 1

Therefore, molecular formula of the compound = (H₂CO₃) * 1

Molecular formula of the compound = H₂CO₃

The molecular formula of a compound composed of 3.3% H, 19.3% C, and 77.4% O and a molar mass of approximately 60 g/mol is CH2O3.

HOW TO CALCULATE MOLECULAR FORMULA:

The molecular formula of an unknown compound can be calculated from the empirical formula. The empirical formula can be calculated as follows:

C = 19.3% = 19.3gH = 3.3% = 3.3gO = 77.4% = 77.4g

First, we calculate the number of moles in each element by dividing by their respective atomic mass.

C = 19.3g ÷ 12g/mol = 1.61molH = 3.3g ÷ 1g/mol = 3.3molO = 77.4g ÷ 16g/mol = 4.84mol

Next, we divide by the smallest mole value. C = 1.61mol ÷ 1.61 = 1 H = 3.3mol ÷ 1.61 = 2.05O = 4.84mol ÷ 1.61 = 3.01

Approximately, the empirical ratio of CHO is 1:2:3. Hence, the empirical formula is CH2O3.

{CH2O3}n = 60g/mol

{12 + 2 + 48}n = 60

62n = 60

n = 60 ÷ 62

n = 0.968

n = 1

Therefore, the molecular formula of a compound composed of 3.3% H, 19.3% C, and 77.4% O and a molar mass of approximately 60 g/mol is CH2O3.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the molarity of a solution is defined in terms of the moles of solute divided by the volume of the solution in liters and has units of mol/L or M:

[tex]M=\frac{n}{V}[/tex]

For the solute, Fe3Br2, which has a molar mass of 327.3430 g/mol, the moles in 42.389 g are:

[tex]n=42.389g*\frac{1mol}{327.3430g} =0.12949mol[/tex]

Thus, since the volume in liters is 0.750 L from those given 750 mL, the molarity turns out:

A researcher was interested in whether older people are slower (take longer) on this task. The researcher tested 30 randomly selected 80-year-olds. Their mean time was 2.7 seconds, with an estimated population standard deviation of 1.4 seconds. What should the researcher conclude?
