"Inert" xenon actually forms many compounds, especially with highly electronegative fluorine. The ΔH° values for xenon difluorid

e, tetrafluoride, and hexafluoride are -2105, - 2284, and - 2402 kJ/mol, respectively. Find the average bond energy of the Xe¬F bonds in each fluoride.

The average bond energy of the Xe¬F bonds in each fluoride is 132kJ/mol.

Given:

ΔH° of xenon difluoride (XeF2) = -105 kJ/mol

ΔH° of xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4)= -284 kJ/mol

ΔH° of xenon hexafluoride (XeF6) = -402 kJ/mol

The bond energy of Xe-F in XeF2 can be calculated as follows,

As we know that

ΔH° = ΔH°(bond formed) + ΔH°(bond broken)

The chemical reaction for the formation of XeF2 can be written in such a way,

Xe (g) + F2 (g) → XeF2 (g)

= [1 mol F2 (159 kJ/mol)] + [2(-Xe-F)] - 105 kJ/mol

= 159 kJ/mol + 2(-Xe-F) - 264 kJ/mol

= 2(-Xe-F)

Xe-F = 132 kJ/mol

Thus, we concluded that the average bond energy of the Xe¬F bonds in each fluoride is 132kJ/mol.

Zinc has a specific heat capacity of 0.390 J/goC. What is its molar heat capacity? Enter your answer numerically to three signif
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The answer to your questions is  Cm = 25.5 J/mol°C  

Explanation:

Data

Heat capacity = 0.390 J/g°C

Molar heat capacity = ?

Process

1.- Look for the atomic number of Zinc

     Z = 65.4 g/mol

2.- Convert heat capacity to molar heat capacity

       (0.390 J/g°C)(65.4 g/mol)

- Simplify and result

   Cm = 25.5 J/mol°C

If the conjugate base of a molecule has a pkb of 1.4, what would you expect the molecule to be?
maw [93]

If the conjugate base of a molecule has a pKb of 1.4, the molecule should be a Weak Acid.

Notice this question gives us the pKb of the molecule, not the pKa. Because of this, the pH scale basically gets reversed, so lower numbers in pKb correlate with stronger bases, and higher numbers in pKb correlate with stronger acids - the exact opposite of the pH scale.

It's important to make sure you completely understand the terms of conjugate base, conjugate acid, pKb, pKa, and how they all relate. It's easy to mix up the meanings of these definitions.

Here are the two other pieces of information you need to know to correctly answer this question:

  • Strong acids have a weak conjugate base.
  • Strong bases have a weak conjugate acid.

So if the problem says you have a strong conjugate base, then the molecule must be a weak acid. To illustrate this, think of ammonium, NH4+. Ammonium is a weak acid, but the conjugate base of ammonium is ammonia, NH3, which is a reasonably good base.

A 26.08 g mixture of zinc and sodium is reacted with a stoichiometric amount of sulfuric acid. The reaction mixture is then reac
Over [174]

Answer:

Molar percent of sodium in original mixture is 88,50%

Explanation:

The last reaction is:

BaCl₂ + Na₂SO₄ → BaSO₄ + 2 NaCl

The moles of BaCl₂ are:

0,132L × 3,80M = 0,502 moles of BaCl₂

As the amount of BaCl₂ is the maximum possible to produce BaSO₄, the moles of BaCl₂ must be the same than moles of Na₂SO₄.

0,502 moles of BaCl₂ ≡ 0,502 moles of Na₂SO₄

These moles of Na₂SO₄ comes from:

2 Na + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + H₂

As the reaction is in stoichiometric amounts, moles of Na are twice the moles of Na₂SO₄

0,502 moles of Na₂SO₄ ×\frac{2molesNa}{1moleNa_{2}SO_{4}}× 22,99 g/mole = 23,08 g of Na

Molar percent of sodium in original mixture is:

\frac{23,08g}{26,08g}*100 = <em>88,50% </em>

I hope it helps

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Yes it is a mineral

Explanation:

Susanna has found a mineral because the five characteristics of a mineral are naturally occurring solid, crystal structure, forms by inorganic process, and definite chemical composition. Everything that was listed in the question describes the fact that its a mineral.

Brainliest would be appreciated :)
