<h2>Answer:</h2>0.1899grams

<h2>Explanations:</h2>

The balanced chemical reaction between hydrochloric acid and potassium sulfide is as shown:

K_2S+2HCl\to H_2S+2KCl

Based on stoichiometry, we can see that 1 mole of potassium sulfide reacted to form 1 mole of hydrogen sulfide.

Get the mole of hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) using the ideal gas equation expressed as:

\begin{gathered} PV=\text{nRT} \\ n=\frac{PV}{RT} \end{gathered}

P is the pressure of the gas (in atm) = 0.994737atm (756torr)

V is the volume of the gas = 42.5mL = 0.0425L

T is the temperature (in Kelvin) = 26 + 273 = 299K

R is the gas constant = 0.0821 L*atm/mole * K

Substitute these values into the formula as shown:

\begin{gathered} n=\frac{0.994737\cancel{\text{atm}}\times0.0425\cancel{L}}{0.0821\frac{\cancel{L}\cdot\cancel{\text{atm}}}{\text{mole}\cdot\cancel{K}}\times299\cancel{K}} \\ n=\frac{0.994737\times0.0425}{0.0821\times299} \\ n=\frac{0.0422763225}{24.5479} \\ n=0.00172\text{moles} \end{gathered}

Since the number of moles of hydrogen sulfide is 0.00172moles, the number of moles of potassium sulfide will also be 0.00172 moles (based on stoichiometry)

Get the mass of potassium sulfide that reacted using the formula:

\text{Mass}=number\text{ of moles}\times molar\text{ mass}

Number of moles of K2S = 0.00172 moles

Molar mass of K2S = 110.262 g/mol

Substitute into the formula for calculating the mass;

\begin{gathered} \text{Mass}=0.00172\cancel{\text{moles}}\times\frac{110.262g}{\cancel{\text{mole}}} \\ \text{Mass}=0.1899\text{grams} \end{gathered}

Therefore the mass of potassium sulfide that reacted (in grams) is approximately 0.1899grams

Question 7 of 32
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The primary type of energy change which occurs by turning on the phone will be the conversion of the stored chemical energy of the battery into electrical energy. The chemical energy is also converted into light energy, sound energy and heat energy. With the passage of time, the energy will be changed back into the chemical energy when we will charge the phone again.

For the vaporization of a liquid at a given pressure: A.ΔG is positive at all temperatures. B.ΔG is negative at all temperatures
MArishka [77]

Answer:

C. ΔG is positive at low temperatures, but negative at high temperatures (and zero at some temperature).

Explanation:

Since we need to give energy in the form of heat to vaporize a liquid, the enthalpy is positive. In a gas, molecules are more separated than in a liquid, therefore the entropy is positive as well.

Considering the Gibbs free energy equation:

ΔG= ΔH - TΔS

          +        +

When both the enthalpy and entropy are positive, the reaction proceeds spontaneously (ΔG is negative) at high temperatures. At low temperatures, the reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction (ΔG is positive).
