Answer 2

Answer:

Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions

Many familiar chemical reactions, such as the burning of coal, rusting and exploding gunpowder, give off heat; chemists call these reactions exothermic. Because reactions liberate heat, they increase the ambient temperature.

Arrange the following substances from the lowest to highest normal boiling point: CaO, O2, H2, H2CO, H2O.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is CH4<CH3OCH3<CH4O<CaCO3

Explanation:

The order of the lowest to highest normal boiling point:

H₂ < O₂ < H₂CO₃ < H₂O < CaO

What is the boiling point?

The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure.  At this temperature, the liquid phase is changed into a vapor phase.

The boiling point is the temperature point at which the material transforms into the gas phase in the liquid phase. The Celsius scale was created on the basis of the ice or water melting point and the liquid water or vapor boiling point. Each substance consists its own boiling point.

The boiling point of Calcium oxide is 2850° C as it has a strong force of attraction between the ions. The boiling point of water as we already know is equal to 100° C.

The boiling point of the oxygen gas is -183°C and the boiling point of the hydrogen gas is  - 252.8°C.  The boiling point of carbonic acid is 333.6°C.

Therefore, CaO has the highest, and hydrogen gas has the lowest normal boiling point among the given compounds.

Determine the Oxidation number of the indicated element in each of the following substances: Mn in KMnO4 S in SO2 C in COCl2 P in PF4 O in K2O2

Answers

Answer:

1. Mn = +7

2. S = +4

3. C = +4

4. P = +4

5. O = -1

Explanation:

The oxidation number of each element in a compound is as follows:

1. Mn in KMnO4

KMnO4 = 0

Where; K = +1, O = -2, Mn = x

+1 + x -2(4) = 0

1 + x - 8 = 0

x - 7 = 0

x = +7

2. S in SO2

SO2 = 0

Where; S = x, O = -2

x + -2(2) = 0

x - 4 = 0

x = +4

3. C in COCl2

COCl2 = 0

Where; C = x, O = -2, Cl = -1

x + -2 + -1(2) = 0

x + -2 + -2 = 0

x -2 - 2 = 0

x - 4 = 0

x = +4

4. P in PF4

PF4 = 0

Where; P = x, F = -1

x + -1 (4) = 0

x - 4 = 0

x = +4

5. O in K2O2

K2O2 = 0

Where; K = +1, O = x

+1(2) + x(2) = 0

2 + 2x = 0

-2x = 2

x = -1

if an exothermic reaction takes place in an insulated container at the end of the reaction the temperature of the content of the container will

Answers

Answer:

Remain the same.

Explanation:

The reaction of the temperature of the content of the container will remain the same because no heat energy is transfer from the container to the external environment due to insulating material of the container. Insulators are poor conductor of heat and electricity so the container is unable to absorb the heat energy produced during a chemical reaction and all energy of the product remain the same.

In Universe L, recently discovered by an intrepid team of chemists who also happen to have studied interdimensional travel, quantum mechanics works just as it does in our universe, except that there are three d orbitals instead of the usual number we observe here. Use these facts to write the ground-state electron configurations of the second and third elements in the first transition series in Universe.

Answers

Answer:

Second element(Titanium); [Ar] 3d2 4s2

Third element(Vanadium):Ar 3d3 4s2

Explanation:

Given that there are only three d orbitals in universe L instead of five, the electronic configuration of the second and third elements in the first transition series will now look thus;

Second element(Titanium); [Ar] 3d2 4s2

Third transition element(Vanadium):Ar 3d3 4s2

Hence, the electronic configuration of Titanium and Vanadium in universe L is just the same as what it is on earth.

A friend is calculating the energy of reaction for a combustion reaction using bond energies, and the calculations are returning a positive for ?H. What, if anything, has your friend done incorrectly?

A. He or She used the wrong table of bond energies
B. Nothing, a combustion reaction should have a positive ?H
C. He or she may have subtracted the reactants from the products
D. Bond energies don’t apply to combustion reactants and should not be used.

Answers

Answer:

He or She used the wrong table of bond energies

Explanation:

We know that we obtain the energy of a reaction also known as the enthalpy of reaction from the formula; ΔHo(reaction) = sum of the bond energies of bonds being broken - sum of the bond energies of the bonds being formed.

Combustion is an exothermic reaction for which the value of ΔH is expected to the negative. If ΔH is not negative, then the calculation was not properly done and the wrong values of bond energy were probably used.

Answer:

He or she may have subtracted the bond energies for the reactants from the products.

A.
average rotational kinetic energy of the particles in an object
B.
average energy of the particles in an object
C.
average translational kinetic energy of the particles in an object
D.
all energy possessed by the particles in an object

Answers

Answer:

C. average transnational kinetic energy of the particles in an object.

Explanation:

Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. Thermal energy measures the total kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. The greater the motion of particles, the higher a substance's temperature and thermal energy. Therefore we could say that the average kinetic energy of a gas particle is directly proportional to the temperature. Hence an increase in temperature increases the speed in which the gas molecules move. All gases at a given temperature have the same average kinetic energy.

Suppose 128 radioactive atoms have a half-life of 15 seconds. Approximately how many radioactive atoms will be left after 60 seconds

Answers

Answer:

8 electrons

Explanation:

Number of atoms = 128

Half life = 15 s

After each half life, the number of atoms reduces by half. So we need to determine how many half lives are in 60s.

Number of half lives = 60s / 15s = 4

After the first life;

Number of electrons left = 128 / 2 = 64

After the second life;

Number of electrons left = 64 / 2 = 32

After the third half life;

Number of electrons left = 32 / 2 = 16

After the fourth half life;

Number of electrons left = 16 / 2 = 8

Answer:

C. 8

Explanation:

correct on gizmo; After one half-life (15 seconds), about 64 radioactive atoms will remain, half of the original 128. After a second half-life passes (30 seconds total), about 32 radioactive atoms will remain, half of 64. After a third half-life passes (45 seconds), about 16 radioactive atoms will remain. A time of 60 seconds represents four half-lives, so about 8 radioactive atoms will remain.

Balance the equation.
P + 02 --> P4O10​

Answers

Answer:

4P + 5O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained:

P + O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

The above equation can be balance as illustrated below:

P + O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

There are 4 atoms of P on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by 4 in front of P as shown below:

4P + O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

There are 10 atoms of O on the right side and 2 atoms on the left side. It can be balance by putting 5 in front of O₂ as shown below:

4P + 5O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

Now the equation is balanced.

0.2 mol of hydrocarbons undergo complete combustion to give 35.2 of carbon dioxide and 14.4g of water as the only product. What is the molecular formula of hydrocarbon

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\rm C_4 H_8[/tex].

Explanation:

Look up the relative atomic mass of [tex]\rm C[/tex], [tex]\rm H[/tex], and [tex]\rm O[/tex] on a modern periodic table:

[tex]\rm C[/tex]: [tex]12.011[/tex].[tex]\rm H[/tex]: [tex]1.008[/tex].[tex]\rm O[/tex]: [tex]15.999[/tex].

Calculate the molecular mass of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] and [tex]\rm H_2O[/tex]:

[tex]M(\mathrm{CO_2}) = 12.011 + 2 \times 15.999 = 44.009\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}[/tex];

[tex]M(\mathrm{H_2O}) = 2 \times 1.008 + 15.999 = 18.015\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}[/tex].

Given the mass [tex]m[/tex] of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] and [tex]\rm H_2O[/tex] produced, calculate the number of moles of molecules that were produced:

[tex]\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CO_2}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{CO_2})}{M(\mathrm{CO_2})} \approx 0.80\; \rm mol[/tex];

[tex]\displaystyle n(\mathrm{H_2O}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{H_2O})}{M(\mathrm{H_2O})} \approx 0.80\; \rm mol[/tex].

Calculate the number of moles of [tex]\rm C[/tex] atoms and [tex]\rm H[/tex] atoms in these [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] and [tex]\rm H_2O[/tex] molecules.

Each [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] molecule contains one [tex]\rm C[/tex] atom. Therefore, that [tex]0.80\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CO_2\![/tex] contains [tex]0.80\; \rm mol\![/tex] of [tex]\rm C\![/tex] atoms.Each [tex]\rm H_2O[/tex] molecule contains two [tex]\rm H[/tex] atoms. Therefore, that [tex]0.80\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm H_2O\![/tex] contains [tex]2 \times 0.80\; \rm mol = 1.60\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm H\![/tex] atoms.

The combustion reaction here include two reactants: the hydrocarbon and [tex]\rm O_2[/tex].

As the name suggests, hydrocarbons contain only [tex]\rm C[/tex] atoms and [tex]\rm H[/tex] atoms. On the other hand, [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] contains only [tex]\rm O[/tex] atoms.

Therefore, all the [tex]\rm C[/tex] and [tex]\rm H[/tex] atoms in those [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] and [tex]\rm H_2O[/tex] molecules are from the unknown hydrocarbon. (With a similar logic, all the [tex]\rm O[/tex] atoms in those combustion products are from [tex]\rm O_2[/tex].)

In other words, that [tex]0.20\; \rm mol[/tex] of this unknown hydrocarbon molecules contains:

[tex]0.80\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm C[/tex] atoms, and [tex]1.60\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm H[/tex] atoms.

Hence, each of these hydrocarbon molecules would contain [tex](0.80\; \rm mol) / (0.20\; \rm mol) = 4[/tex] carbon atoms and [tex](1.60\; \rm mol) / (0.20\; \rm mol) = 8[/tex] hydrogen atoms.

The molecular formula of this hydrocarbon would be [tex]\rm C_{4} H_{8}[/tex].

How many liters of oxygen are necessary for the combustion of 425 g of sulfur, assuming that the reaction occurs at STP

Answers

Answer:

V = 296.6 liters of oxygen.

Explanation:

The reaction of combustion of sulfur is:

O₂(g) + S(s) → SO₂(g)        (1)

To find the volume of the oxygen we need to use the Ideal Gas Law:

[tex] V = \frac{n_{O}RT}{P} [/tex]   (2)

Where:

V: is the volume

[tex]n_{O}[/tex]: is the number of moles of oxygen

R: is the gas constant = 0.082 L*atm/(K*mol)

T: is the temperature = 273 K (at STP)

P: is the pressure = 1 atm (at STP)

So we need to find the number of moles of oxygen that reacts with sulfur:

[tex]n_{S} = \frac{m}{M}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]n_{S}[/tex]: is the number of moles of sulfur

m: is the mass of sulfur = 425 g

M: is the molar mass of sulfur = 32.065 g/mol                                                                            

[tex]n_{S}=\frac{m}{M} =\frac{425 g}{32.065 g/mol} = 13.25 moles[/tex]

From reaction (1) we have that 1 mol of O₂ reacts with 1 mol of S, hence the number of moles of oxygen is:

[tex] n_{S} = n_{O} = 13.25 moles [/tex]  

Finally, the volume of oxygen is (equation (2)):

[tex]V = \frac{13.25 moles*0.082 L*atm/(K*mol)*273 K}{1 atm} = 296.6 L[/tex]

Therefore, are necessary 296.6 liters of oxygen for the combustion of sulfur.

When an endothermic chemical reaction (the system) occurs inside a calorimeter containing water (the surroundings) and no heat escapes from the calorimeter, which of the following statements is true?

a. Heat flows from the system to the surroundings and the temperature of the water increases.
b. Heat flows from the surroundings to the system and the temperature of the water decreases.
c. Heat flows from the system to the surroundings and the temperature of the water decreases.
d. Heat flows from the surroundings to the system and the temperature of the water increases.

Answers

Answer:

b. Heat flows from the surroundings to the system and the temperature of the water decreases.

Explanation:

The laws of thermodynamics lets us know that energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. Also, energy transfer does accompany chemical reactions in the form of heat.

For an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed by the system from the surroundings. This leads to a drop in the temperature of the surroundings as energy is removed.

This implies that the water temperature decreases.
