The student decided to do another experiment with his leftover copper(II) sulfate (CuSO4) solution. He divided the solution up i

nto two beakers. He dropped an iron nail (Fe(s)) into one beaker. He dropped a silver rod (Ag(s)) into the other. Write the chemical equation of any reactions he saw.

Answer:

CuSO4 + Fe -> FeSO4 + Cu

Explanation:

This reaction is a classic example of a redox reaction. I won't go in too deep, but the basic thing is that electrons from the Fe atom go to the Cu2+ ion. Therefore, Fe becomes an ion, and Cu - an electroneutral atom:

Fe + Cu2+ -> Fe2+ + Cu.

Silver is not a very reactive metal and it does not give up its electrons to Cu.

What makes a gas a gas?
Grace [21]

Answer:

Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, liquid, and plasma). A pure gas may be made up of individual atoms (e.g. a noble gas like neon), elemental molecules made from one type of atom (e.g. oxygen), or compound molecules made from a variety of atoms (e.g. carbon dioxide).

The vapor pressure of substance X is 100. mm Hg at 1080.°C. The vapor pressure of substance X increases to 600. mm Hg at 1220.°C
artcher [175]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         P_{1} = 100 mm Hg or \frac{100}{760}atm = 0.13157 atm

         T_{1} = 1080 ^{o}C = (1080 + 273) K = 1357 K

         T_{2} = 1220 ^{o}C = (1220 + 273) K = 1493 K

         P_{2} = 600 mm Hg or \frac{600}{760}atm = 0.7895 atm

          R = 8.314 J/K mol

According to Clasius-Clapeyron equation,

                   log(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}}) = \frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{2.303R}[\frac{1}{T_{1}} - \frac{1}{T_{2}}

            log(\frac{0.7895}{0.13157}) = \frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{2.303 \times 8.314 J/mol K}[\frac{1}{1357 K} - \frac{1}{1493 K}]

          log (6) = \frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{19.147}[\frac{(1493 - 1357) K}{1493 K \times 1357 K}]

                0.77815 = \frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{19.147J/K mol} \times 6.713 \times 10^{-5} K

              \Delta H_{vap} = 2.219 \times 10^{5} J/mol

                                   = 2.219 \times 10^{5}J/mol \times 10^{-3}\frac{kJ}{1 J}

                                    = 221.9 kJ/mol

Thus, we can conclude that molar heat of vaporization of substance X is 221.9 kJ/mol.

Suppose that a fictitious element, x, has two isotopes: 59x (59.015 amu) and 62x (62.011 amu). the lighter isotope has an abunda
professor190 [17]

The atomic mass of the element would simply be equal to the sum of the weighted average of each isotope, that is:

atomic mass = 59.015 amu * 0.717 + 62.011 amu * (1 – 0.717)

<span>atomic mass = 59.863 amu</span>

Calculate the molarity of a solution if there are 1.5 mol of NaCl in 2.3 L of solution
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

0.6522 mol/L.

Explanation:

<em>Molarity is defined as the no. of moles of a solute per 1.0 L of the solution.</em>

<em />

M = (no. of moles of solute)/(V of the solution (L)).

<em>∴ M = (no. of moles of solute)/(V of the solution (L)) </em>= (1.5 mol)/(2.3 L) = <em>0.6522 mol/L.</em>
