The calculated enthalpy of formation of kerosene is 365.4 kJ and heat produced is 78650.3 kJ

For this, we need the normal enthalpy of formation given below

ΔH∘f(CO2)=−393.5kJ/molΔH∘f(H2O)\s=−241.8kJ/molΔH∘f(O2)=0kJ/mol

We shall now determine the enthalpy of kerosene formation:

H rxn = 24 mol H f (CO2) + 26 mol H f (H2O) + 2 mol H f (C12H26) + 37 mol H f (O2) + 1.50 104 kJ = 9444 kJ + 6286.8 kJ + 1500 kJ 2 mol H f (C12H26) = 730.8 kJ H f (C12H26) = 365.4 kJ

Kerosene has a density of 0.74 g/mL.

Kerosene volume (V) equals 0.63 gallons, or 0.63 x 3785.4, or 2384. 8 mL.

We shall now calculate the mass (m) of kerosene:

ρ=mVm\s=ρ×Vm\s=0.749g/mL×2384.mLm\s=1786.2g

We shall now discover the heat that 1786 generated.

Two grams of kerosene

Kerosene's molar mass is 170.33 g/mol.

The mass of two moles of kerosene is equal to 2*170.33*340.66g.

1.50104kJ of heat are generated by 340.66 g of kerosene.

1786 produced heat.

Kerosene 2 grams = 1.50 104 kJ 340.66 1786.2 g = 78650.3 kJ

In the laboratory you are asked to make a 0.303 m cobalt(II) sulfate solution using 275 grams of water. How many grams of cobalt
valentinak56 [21]

Answer: 12.92g of CoSO4

Explanation:

Molar Mass of CoSO4 = 59 + 32 + (16x4) = 59 + 32 +64 = 155g/mol

Molarity of CoSO4 = 0.303mol/L

Mass conc. In g/L = Molarity x molar Mass

= 0.303x155 = 46.965g/L

275 grams of water = 0.275L of water

46.965g of CoSO4 dissolves in 1L

Therefore Xg of CoSO4 will dissolve in 0.275L i.e

Xg of CoSO4 = 46.965x0.275 = 12.92g

Therefore 12.92g of CoSO4 is needed

What did Thomas Young, Max planck and Albert Einstein contribute towards the nature of light?
Lera25 [3.4K]

The contribution to the nature of light-

Thomas Young - wave nature of light (double-slit experiment)

Max Planck - E = hv

Albert Einstein - a quantum theory of light

Thomas Young proposed the most important double-slit experiment which shows that light acts like a wave and shows the pattern of interferences.

Max Planck proposed that light is proportional to frequency. He gave the equation, E = hv, where E is the energy of light, h is Planck's constant, and v is the frequency.

Albert Einstein proposed the quantum theory of light. He determined that light exists in discrete quanta of energy called photons.

Phosphorus has three electrons in its 3p sublevel and sulfur has four. Phosphorus should have the lower ionization energy but it
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

First of all it is important to know that a half filled orbital is particularly stable. In phosphorus all the electrons occur singly in the 3p sublevel minimizing inter electronic repulsion hence it is more difficult to remove an electron from this energetically stable arrangement. In sulphur, electrons are paired in one of the 3p orbitals thereby lowering the energy of that level due to instability caused by interelectronic repulsion between two electrons in the same orbital.
