Answer:

An atom consists of a positively charged nucleus, surrounded by one or more negatively charged particles called electrons. The positive charges equal the negative charges, so the atom has no overall charge; it is electrically neutral.

How many molecules of carbon dioxide are dissolved in 0.550 L of water at 25 °C if the pressure of CO2 above the water is 0.250

Grace [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of molecules of carbon dioxide gas are $2.815\times 10^{21}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{CO_2}=K_H\times p_{CO_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $0.034mol/L.atm$

$C_{CO_2}$ = molar solubility of carbon dioxide gas

$p_{CO_2}$ = pressure of carbon dioxide gas = 0.250 atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{CO_2}=0.034mol/L.atm\times 0.250atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=8.5\times 10^{-3}M$

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of carbon dioxide = $8.5\times 10^{-5}M$

Volume of solution = 0.550 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$8.5\times 10^{-3}M=\frac{\text{Moles of }CO_2}{0.550L}\\\\\text{Moles of }CO_2=(8.5\times 10^{-3}mol/L\times 0.550L)=4.675\times 10^{-3}mol$

According to mole concept:

1 mole of a compound contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of molecules

So, $4.675\times 10^{-3}$ moles of carbon dioxide will contain = $(6.022\times 10^{23}\times 4.675\times 10^{-3})=2.815\times 10^{21}$ number of molecules

Hence, the number of molecules of carbon dioxide gas are $2.815\times 10^{21}$

Aqueous solutions of ammonium oxalate and lithium acetate react.

Anarel [89]

Answer:

The reaction is a double displacement reaction

Explanation:

Let us consider the reaction equation of the reaction between ammonium oxalate and lithium acetate.

(NH4)2C2O4(aq) +2 CH3COOLi(aq) -------> 2NH4CH3CO2(aq) + Li2C2O4(s)

This is a displacement reaction. A double displacement reaction is a type of reaction in which two reactants exchange their ions to form two new compounds. Double displacement reactions usually lead to the formation of a solid product which is also called a precipitate.

The general form of a Double displacement reaction is of the format:

AB + CD → AD + CB

Where A,B,C and D represents different ions respectively.

A double displacement reaction can also be referred to as salt metathesis reaction, double replacement reaction, exchange reaction, or a double decomposition reaction, although the latter term is more strictly used when one or more of the reactants does not dissolve in the solvent.

What is the partial pressure of 0.50 mol Ne gas combined with 1.20 mol Kr gas at a final pressure of 730 torr?

WARRIOR [948]

The partial pressure of 0.50 Ne gas is 214.71 torr

calculation

the partial pressure of Ne = moles of Ne/total moles x final pressure

find the total moles of the air mixture

that is moles of Ne + moles of K= 0.50 + 1.20 = 1.70 moles

The partial pressure is therefore = 0.50 /1.70 x 730 = 214.71 torr

Pentane is a small liquid hydrocarbon, between propane and gasoline in size at C5H12. The density of pentane is 0.626 g/mL and i

Goshia [24]

Answer : The fuel value and the fuel density of pentane is, 49.09 kJ/g and $3.073\times 10^4kJ/L$ respectively.

Explanation :

Fuel value : It is defined as the amount of energy released from the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels. The fuel value always in positive and in kilojoule per gram (kJ/g).

As we are given that:

$\Delta H^o_{comb}=-3535kJ/mol$
