The enthalpy of fusion for Hg is 2.29 kJ/mol. 0.89 kJ is the energy change when 78.0 g of Hg melts at −38.8°C.

<h3>What is Enthalpy of Fusion ?</h3>

The amount of energy needed to change 1 mole of substance under state change at constant temperature and pressure is called enthalpy of fusion. It is also known as Latent heat of fusion. Unit of enthalpy of fusion is kJ/mol.

<h3>How to find the change in energy ? </h3>

To find the change in energy use this expression:

q = n ΔH

where

q = Energy change

n = number of moles

ΔH = Molar enthalpy

Number of moles (n) = \frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

                                  = \frac{78.0\ g}{200\ \text{g/mol}}

                                  = 0.39 mol

Now put the values in above formula we get

q = n ΔH

  = 0.39 mol × 2.29 kJ/mol

  = 0.89 kJ

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The enthalpy of fusion for Hg is 2.29 kJ/mol. 0.89 kJ is the energy change when 78.0 g of Hg melts at −38.8°C.

What investigations never involve hypotheses?
marshall27 [118]
The correct answer is a descriptive investigation.

An investigation which does not involve hypotheses called descriptive investigation.
Hypotheses are termed as scientific hypotheses and require that one can test it. In hypothesis, previous observation can not satisfactorily be explained with an available scientific theory.
Working hypotheses are being proposed for further research.

Explanation:

  1. area of rectangle=l×b
  • 15=5×b
  • b=3cm

2.area of rectangle=l×b

  • 28=l×4
  • l=7cm

3. perimeter of square=4×L

  • 24=4×L
  • L=6cm

4. perimeter of rectangle=2(L+b)

  • 14=2(4+b)
  • 14=8+2b
  • 2b=6
  • b=3cm

hope it helps.

If the volume of a cylinder is reduced from 8.0 liters to 4.0 liters, the pressure of the gas in the cylinder will change from 7
Elza [17]

Answer:

P₂ = 140 KPa

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 8.0 L

Final volume = 4.0 L

Initial pressure = 70 KPa

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

According to Boyle's law

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₂ = P₁V₁  / V₂

P₂ = 70 KPa ×8.0 L/4.0 L

P₂ = 560 KPa .L / 4.0 L

P₂ = 140 KPa
