What is the volume of 9.5 g fluorine gas, F2, at STP?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

5.6L

Explanation:

At STP, the pressure and temperature of an ideal gas is

P = 1 atm

T = 273.15k

Volume =?

Mass = 9.5g

From ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = ideal gas constant =0.082J/mol.K

T = temperature of the ideal gas

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Molar mass of F2 = 37.99g/mol

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 9.5 / 37.99

Number of moles = 0.25moles

PV = nRT

V = nRT/ P

V = (0.25 × 0.082 × 273.15) / 1

V = 5.599L = 5.6L

The volume of the gas is 5.6L

A 2.00 kg piece of lead at 40.0°C is placed in a very large quantity of water at 10.0°C,and thermal equilibrium is eventually re
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Δ S = 26.2 J/K

Explanation:

The change in entropy can be calculated from the formula  -

Δ S = m Cp ln ( T₂ / T₁ )

Where ,

Δ S = change in entropy

m = mass  = 2.00 kg

Cp =specific heat of lead is 130 J / (kg ∙ K) .

T₂ = final temperature  10.0°C + 273 = 283 K

T₁ = initial temperature ,  40.0°C + 273 = 313 K

Applying the above formula ,

The change in entropy is calculated as ,

ΔS = m Cp ln ( T₂ / T₁ )  = (2.00 )( 130 ) ln( 283 K / 313 K )

ΔS = 26.2 J/K

Whats the difference between covalent and ionic bonds
il63 [147K]

Answer: The two main types of chemical bonds are ionic and covalent bonds. An ionic bond essentially donates an electron to the other atom participating in the bond, while electrons in a covalent bond are shared equally between the atoms. The only pure covalent bonds occur between identical atoms.Jan 23, 2020

Explanation: Hope this helped!!!!
