The main information we have to use here is the density of gold. From literature, the density of gold at room temperature is 19.32 g/cm³. To determine the mass, let's calculate the volume first. A wire is in the shape of a cylinder. Thus, the volume would be
V = πd²h/4
V = π(0.175 cm)²(1×10⁵ cm)/4
V = 2,405.28 cm³
Density = mass/volume
19.32 g/cm³ = Mass/2,405.28 cm³
Mass = 46,470 g gold wire
Solids' particles move a lot faster and closer together. Liquids' are more spread apart and move slower. So there is more energy in the solid
Answer: The enthalpy of formation of
is -396 kJ/mol
Explanation:
Calculating the enthalpy of formation of 
The chemical equation for the combustion of propane follows:

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_3(g))})]-[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))})+(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28SO_3%28g%29%29%7D%29%5D-%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28SO_2%28g%29%29%7D%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28O_2%28g%29%29%7D%29%5D)
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:
![-198=[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_3(g))})]-[(2\times \Delta -297)+(1\times (0))]\\\\\Delta H^o_f_{(SO_3(g))}=-396kJ/mol](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-198%3D%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28SO_3%28g%29%29%7D%29%5D-%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20-297%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20%280%29%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28SO_3%28g%29%29%7D%3D-396kJ%2Fmol)
The enthalpy of formation of
is -396 kJ/mol
A. an ion
The atom gains a net electrical charge if the number of protons and electrons are not equal which makes it an ion.
