Answer:

L = 330.0 J/g

Explanation:

The heat of fusion is the energy necessary to transform 1 gram of the solid compound in its liquid phase. Fusion requires that the systems gain heat, so it's an endothermic process.

The energy (Q) is relacionated to the mass of the compound (m) and its heat of fusion (L):

Q = mL

16650 = 50.0L

L = 16650/50

L = 333.0 J/g

Heat fusion is the amount of energy required to convert one mole of ice into water, 16650J is per 50g so if we divide 16650 by 50 we find it per gram: 16650/50 = 333J/g or 0.33KJ/g

hope that helps :)

What does water undergo when it turns to gas from liquid on surface of a sidewalk?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Boiling - when the liquid is heated to a gas.

Evaporating - when the air temperature is hotter than the surface of the liquid so the water turns into water vapor or a gas.

A sample of oxygen gas has a volume of 3.24 L at 29°C. What volume will it occupy at 104°C if the pressure and number of mol are

ohaa [14]

Answer: The final volume of the oxygen gas is 4.04 L

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

Mathematically,

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$V_1\text{ and }T_1$ are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

$V_2\text{ and }T_2$ are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

$V_1=3.24L\\T_1=29^oC=(29+273)K=302K\\V_2=?\\T_2=104^oC=(104+273)K=377K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{3.24L}{302K}=\frac{V_2}{377K}\\\\V_2=4.04L$

Hence, the final volume of the oxygen gas is 4.04 L
