Electrons must be able to flow through a material in order for the material to conduct

1 answer:

7 0

The molecular structure of the solids has lower ability to conduct electricity due to tight holding by nucleus.

<h3>Why molecular solids are poor conductors?</h3>

Molecular solids are also poor conductors of electricity because their valence electrons are tightly held by the nuclear charges present in the nucleus while on the other hand, Metals are good electrical conductors in the solid form due to the presence of free electrons that helps in the conduction of electricity.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Step 1: Define

Identify variables

[Given] m = 225 g

[Given] c = 4.184 J/g °C

[Given] ΔT = 133 °C - -26.8 °C = 159.8 °C

[Solve] q

Step 2: Solve for q

Substitute in variables [Specific Heat Formula]: q = (225 g)(4.184 J/g °C)(159.8 °C)
Multiply: q = (941.4 J/°C)(159.8 °C)
Multiply: q = 150436 J

Step 3: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.

150436 J ≈ 150000 J

Carbon disulfide is prepared by heating sulfur and charcoal. The chemical equation is S 2 ( g ) + C ( s ) − ⇀ ↽ − CS 2 ( g ) K c

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

974.6 grams of CS2 can be prepared.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Kc = 9.40 at 900 K

Moles of S2 = 14.2 mol

volume = 6.30 L

Molar mass of CS2 = 76.14 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation:

S2(g)+C(s) ↔ CS2(g)

Step 3: Calculate initial concentrations

Concentration of S2 = moles S2 / volume

Concentration of S2 = 14.2 moles / 6.30 L

Concentration of S2 = 2.25 M (This is the initial concentration)

The initial concentration of C and CS2 is 0M

Since the mole ratio is 1:1:1

There will react X

The concentration of S2 at the equilibrium is: (2.25 -X)M

The concentration of C and CS2 at the equilibrium is X M

Step 4: Calculate concentrations

Since C is not a gas but solid, it doesn't matter for the Kc

Kc = 9.40 = (products)/(reactants) = [CS2(g)]/[S2(g)]

9.40 = X/(2.25-X)

X = 2.034 = [CS2]

[S2] = 2.25 - 2.034 = 0.216

Step 5: Calculate moles of CS2

Moles CS2 = molarity CS2 * volume

Moles CS2 = 2.034 M * 6.30 L

Moles CS2 = 12.8 moles

Step 6: Calculate mass of CS2

Mass CS2 = moles CS2 * molar mass CS2

Mass CS2 = 12.8 moles * 76.14 g/mol

Mass CS2 = 974.6 grams

974.6 grams of CS2 can be prepared.
