How much heat energy is required to convert 48.3 g of solid ethanol at -114.5 degree C to gasesous ethanol at 135.3 degree C? Th
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

7.21 × 10⁴ J

Explanation:

Ethanol is solid below -114.5°c, liquid between -114.5°C and 78.4°C, and gaseous above 78.4°C.

<em>How much heat energy is required to convert 48.3 g of solid ethanol at -114.5°C to gaseous ethanol at 135.3 °C?</em>

<em />

We need to calculate the heat required in different stages and then add them.

The moles of ethanol are:

48.3g.\frac{1mol}{46.07g} =1.05mol

Solid-liquid transition

Q₁ = ΔHfus . n = (4.60 kJ/mol) . 1.05 mol = 4.83 kJ = 4.83 × 10³ J

where,

ΔHfus: molar heat of fusion

n: moles

Liquid: from -114.5°C to 78.4°C

Q₂ = c(l) . m . ΔT = (2.45 J/g.°C) . 48.3g . [78.4°C-(-114.5°C)] = 2.28 × 10⁴ J

where,

c(l): specific heat capacity of the liquid

ΔT: change in the temperature

Liquid-gas transition

Q₃ = ΔHvap . n = (38.56 kJ/mol) . 1.05 mol = 40.5 kJ = 40.5 × 10³ J

where,

ΔHvap: molar heat of vaporization

Gas: from 78.4°C to 135.3°C

Q₄ = c(g) . m . ΔT = (1.43 J/g.°C) . 48.3g . (135.3°C-78.4°C) = 3.93 × 10³ J

where

c(g): specific heat capacity of the gas

Total heat required

Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃ + Q₄ = 4.83 × 10³ J + 2.28 × 10⁴ J + 40.5 × 10³ J + 3.93 × 10³ J = 7.21 × 10⁴ J

The concentration of a biomolecule inside a rod-shaped prokaryotic cell is 0.0029 m. calculate the number of molecules inside th
bagirrra123 [75]
Molarity is expressed as:
Molarity = moles / liter

Given that the cell is rod-shaped, its volume is calculated using the formula for a cylinder's volume:

V = πr²L
V = π * (0.6)² * 4.9
V = 5.54 μm³

1 Liter = 10³ mm³
1 mm = 10³ μm
1 mm³ = 10⁹ μm³
1 liter = 10¹² μm³

So the volume in liters is:
5.54 x 10⁻¹² L

Moles = molarity * liters
Moles = 0.0029 * 5.54 x 10⁻¹²
Moles = 1.61 x 10⁻¹⁴

To get the number of molecules, we multiply the moles by Avagadro's number

Number of molecules = 1.61 x 10⁻¹⁴ * 6.02 x 10²³

There are 9.69 x 10⁹ molecules in the cell

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Rutherford's models

<h2>Explanations:</h2><h2>What is the electron cloud model?</h2>

There are known as the region where electrons are found especially in the nucleus.

According to the five basic atomic models which have contributed to the structure of the atom itself, the Rutherford's models of the atom include a structure that is mostly made of empty space compared to thomson that proposed the plum pudding model of the atom
