The volume of the sample of propane at STP is 0.62 mL.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

Volume is the amount of space that a substance or object occupies.

To calculate the volume of gas at STP, we apply the formula below.

Formula:

PV/T = P'V'/T'................. Equation 1

Where:

P = Initial pressure of gas
V = Initial volume of gas
T = Initial temperature of gas
P' = Standard pressure (SP)
T' = Standard temperature (ST)
V' = Volume of gas at STP.

Make V' The subject of the equation

V' = PVT'/P'T.............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

P = 320 torr
V = 1.73 mL
T = 30 °C = (30+273) K = 303 K
P' = 760 torr
T' = 273 K

Substitute these values into equation 2

V' = (320×1.73×273)/(760×303)
V' = 0.62 mL

Hence, the volume of the sample of propane at STP is 0.62 mL.

ClO-

Question 1:

How would the electron configuration of nitrogen change to make a stable configuration?

Since Nitrogen has 5 Valence electrons, it needs 3 electrons to attain it's octet configuration. As such, it gains 3 electrons.

Question 2:

Which quantity determines how two atoms bond.

The quantity which determines how two atoms bond is The difference in their electronegativities.

Question 3:

Which statement best explains why the elements in Group 18 do not have electronegativity values.

This is because the elements have filled Valence levels.

Question 4:

Based on patterns in the periodic table, which ion has a stable valence electron configuration

The ion which has a stable Valence electron configuration is potassium (K) with a 1+ charge

How should scientist deal with the issue of endangered animals? write in complete 5 sentences please help

ANEK [815]

I think that scientist should build a habitat we’re the endangered animals could go free.By scientists building a habitat I mean giving the endangered animals a space to feel safe.Another way scientists could help endangered animals , would be to try and reproduce, the animal.For example scientist could help out with giving the animals hormones to be able to reproduce.And lastly scientists could do experimentation on the endangered animals to see if the animal ever were to go extinct how they could reproduce a new species.

Sulfur dioxide, SO 2 ( g ) , can react with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide, SO 3 ( g ) , by the reaction 2 SO 2 ( g ) + O 2 (

aleksley [76]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of heat produced by the reaction is -21.36 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles.

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f_{(reactant)}]$

For the given chemical reaction:

$2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(SO_3(g))})]-[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(SO_2(g))})+(1\times \Delta H_f_{(O_2(g))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta H_f_{(SO_2(g))}=-296.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(SO_3(g))}=-395.7kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(2\times (-395.7))]-[(2\times (-296.8))+(1\times (0))]\\\\\Delta H_{rxn}=-197.8kJ/mol$

To calculate the number of moles, we use ideal gas equation, which is:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 1.00 bar

V = Volume of the gas = 2.67 L

n = number of moles of gas = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0831\text{ L. bar }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the mixture = $25^oC=[25+273]K=298K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.00bar\times 2.67L=n\times 0.0831\text{ L. bar }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\n=\frac{1\times 2.67}{0.0831\times 298}=0.108mol$

To calculate the heat released of the reaction, we use the equation:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

q = amount of heat released = ?

n = number of moles = 0.108 moles

$\Delta H_{rxn}$ = enthalpy change of the reaction = -197.8 kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$-197.8kJ/mol=\frac{q}{0.108mol}\\\\q=(-197.8kJ/mol\times 0.108mol)=-21.36kJ$

Hence, the amount of heat produced by the reaction is -21.36 kJ
