Would the water in a pond or the water in a full bathtub have more thermal energy? Explain why.

1 answer:

5 0

Thermal energy is defined as the total kinetic energy of all particles in an object. Even though the cup of water has a higher temperature, the bathtub has more thermal energy because it contains much more mass of water compared to the cup.

What is the mass of the hydrogen atoms in 1 mole of water

Katen [24]

Answer:

2.0158 grams

Explantion:

We are to find the mass of the hydrogen atoms in 1 mole of water.

We know that the formula of water is: $H_2O$

We can see, from the above mentioned formula, that water has 2 hydrpgen atoms.

From the periodic table, we get to know that Hydrogen has an atomic mass of 1.00794 grams.

As there are 2 atoms of hydrogen in water so $2 \times 1.00794 = 2.0158$ grams is the answer

WS Percent yield don’t understand how to do would appreciate the help

Grace [21]

Answer:

1. Theoretical yield of NaOH is 22.72 g

2. Percentage yield of NaOH = 22.14%

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

NaHCO₃ —> NaOH + CO₂

From the balanced equation above,,

1 mole of NaHCO₃ decomposed to produce 1 mole (i.e 40 g) of NaOH and 1 mole (i.e 44.01 g) of CO₂.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of NaHCO₃ that will decompose to produce 25 g of CO₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,,

1 mole of NaHCO₃ decomposed to produce 44.01 g of CO₂.

Therefore, Xmol of NaHCO₃ will decompose to 25 g of CO₂ i.e

Xmol of NaHCO₃ = 25 / 44.01

Xmol of NaHCO₃ = 0.568 mole

1. Determination of the theoretical yield of NaOH.

From the balanced equation above,,

1 mole of NaHCO₃ decomposed to produce 40 g of NaOH.

Therefore, 0.568 mole of NaHCO₃ will decompose to produce = 0.568 × 40 = 22.72 g of NaOH.

Thus, the theoretical yield of NaOH is 22.72 g

2. Determination of the percentage yield of NaOH.

Theoretical yield of NaOH = 22.72 g

Actual yield of NaOH = 5.03 g

Percentage yield of NaOH =?

Percentage yield = Actual yield /Theoretical yield × 100

Percentage yield = 5.03 / 22.72 × 100

Percentage yield of NaOH = 22.14%

What are the observable properties of salt and rocks, and explain how you used empirical evidence to explain that mixtures of so

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Appearance. Pure rock salt is colorless. However, when found underground it is generally not completely pure, so may have yellow, red, gray or brown hues. It is either transparent or translucent and when you shine a light on it, its luster is vitreous, meaning it appears shiny and glassy.

What mass of Hg will occupy a volume of 75.0 mL?

k0ka [10]

75.0 mL in liters:

75.0 / 1000 => 0.075 L

1 mole -------------------- 22.4 L ( at STP)
( moles Hg) ------------- 0.075 L

moles Hg = 0.075 x 1 / 22.4

moles = 0.075 / 22.4

= 0.00334 moles of Hg

Hg => 200.59 u

1 mole Hg ----------------- 200.59 g
0.00334 moles Hg ----- ( mass Hg )

mass Hg = 200.59 x 0.00334 / 1

mass Hg = 0.6699 / 1

= 0.6699 g of Hg

Which statements are true?

schepotkina [342]

Explanation:

Evaporation is defined as a process in which liquid state of water is changing into vapor state.

So, we need to break the bonds of liquid substance in order to convert it into vapor state. And, energy is absorbed for breaking of bonds which means that evaporation is an endothermic process.

Hence, the statement evaporation of water is an exothermic process is false.

When a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen and leads to the formation of carbon dioxide and water then this type of reaction is known as combustion reaction.

A combustion reaction will always release heat energy. Hence, combustion reaction is exothermic in nature.

When energy is transferred as heat from the surroundings to the system then it means energy is being absorbed by the system. And, absorption of heat is an endothermic process for which $\Delta H$ is positive.

Whereas when energy is transferred from system to the surrounding then it means energy is released by the system which is an exothermic process.

Hence, for an exothermic process value of $\Delta H$ is negative.

Thus, we can conclude that statements which are true are as follows.

A combustion reaction is exothermic.

When energy is transferred as heat from the system to the surroundings, $\Delta H$ is negative.

For an endothermic reaction Deta H is positive.
