The composition of the stack gas are :

$CH_4$ = 0.8713

$C_3H_8$ = 0.0202

CO = 0.107

<h3 /><h3>What is a mole fraction?</h3>

The ratio of the number of moles of one component of a solution or other mixture to the total number of moles representing all of the components.

Assuming 100 g of the stack gas. Calculate the mass of each species in this sample according to their percentages.

Mass of $CH_4$ : 70% of 100 g = 70 g

Mass of $C_3H_8$ : 15% of 100 g = 15 g

Mass of CO : 15% of 100 g = 15 g

Now calculate the number of moles of each species:

Number of moles of $CH_4$ : $\frac{70 g}{16.04 g/mol}$ = 4.3 mole

Number of moles of $C_3H_8$ : $\frac{15 g}{144.1 g/mol}$ = 0.10 mole

Mass of CO : $\frac{15 g}{28.01 g/mol}$ = 0.53 mole

Now to calculate the mole fraction of each we use the formula:

Mole fraction of $CH_4$ : $\frac{4.3}{4.935}$ = 0.8713

Mole fraction of $C_3H_8$ : $\frac{0.10}{4.935}$ = 0.0202

Mole fraction of CO : $\frac{0.53}{4.935}$ = 0.107

Hence, composition of the stack gas are:

$CH_4$ = 0.8713

$C_3H_8$ = 0.0202

CO = 0.107

A 100 gram glass container contains 200 grams of water and 50.0 grams of ice all at 0°c. a 200 gram piece of lead at 100°c is ad

ASHA 777 [7]

$0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$

Explanation:

Assuming that the final (equilibrium) temperature of the system is above the melting point of ice, such that all ice in the container melts in this process thus

$E(\text{fusion}) = m(\text{ice}) \cdot L_{f}(\text{water}) = 66.74 \; \text{kJ}$ and
$m(\text{water, final}) = m(\text{water, initial}) + m(\text{ice, initial}) = 0.250 \; \text{kg}$

Let the final temperature of the system be $t \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ . Thus $\Delta T (\text{water}) = \Delta T (\text{beaker}) = t(\text{initial}) - t_{0} = t \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$

$Q(\text{water}) &= &c(\text{water}) \cdot m(\text{water, final}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{water})= 1.047 \cdot t\; \text{kJ}$ (converted to kilojoules)
$Q(\text{container}) &= &c(\text{glass}) \cdot m(\text{container}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{container})= 0.0837 \cdot t \; \text{kJ}$
$Q(\text{lead}) &= &c(\text{lead}) \cdot m(\text{lead}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{lead})= 0.0255 \cdot (100 - t)\; \text{kJ}$

The fact that energy within this system (assuming proper insulation) conserves allows for the construction of an equation about variable $t$ .

$E(\text{absorbed} ) = E(\text{released})$

$E(\text{absorbed} ) = E(\text{fushion}) + Q(\text{water}) + Q(\text{container})$
$E(\text{released}) = Q(\text{lead})$

Confirm the uniformity of units, equate the two expressions and solve for $t$ :

$66.74 + 1.047 \cdot t + 0.0837 \cdot t = 0.0255 \cdot (80 - t)$

$t \approx -55.95\; \textdegree{\text{C}} < 0\; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ which goes against the initial assumption. Implying that the final temperature does <em>not</em> go above the melting point of water- i.e., $t \le 0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ . However, there's no way for the temperature of the system to go below $0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ ; doing so would require the removal of heat from the system which isn't possible under the given circumstance; the ice-water mixture experiences an addition of heat as the hot block of lead was added to the system.

The temperature of the system therefore remains at $0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ ; the only macroscopic change in this process is expected to be observed as a slight variation in the ratio between the mass of liquid water and that of the ice in this system.

Now select a longer period, say the fourth period, starting with the element in the 1A group. Again, go from left to right. What

Inessa [10]

Answer:

The pattern of change in the electron configuration increases from left to right across the period.

Explanation:

In the periodic table, elements having the same number of electrons in the outermost shell of their atoms are placed over one another in vertical columns. Each of the vertical columns is known as a group or family. while each of the resulting horizontal rows is known as a period or row.

There are 18 vertical columns and seven periods in the periodic table. Each period begins with an atom having a valence electron and ends with an atom having a complete outer shell structure of an inert gas.

The fourth period of the periodic table (d-block) consists of the transition elements.

The electron distribution into the energy levels of sublevels of atoms can be shown in any of the tree important electronic configuration.

Electronic configuration shows the sequence of filling electrons into the orbitals of the sublevels as guided by some principles.

The maximum number of electrons in the orbitals of sublevels are two for s-sublevel(one orbital) ; six for p-sublevel( three orbital); ten for d-sublevel ( five orbitals) and fourteen for f-sublevel( seven orbitals). This indicates that the maximum number of electrons in an orbital is two

In the Periodic table ,The sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies. One important thing about this principle is that the sublevels do not fill up in numerical order. The pattern of filling is as follows:

1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f etc.
