Answer:

Anthracite: The highest rank of coal. This coal is hard, brittle, and black lustrous. It is often referred to as hard coal, containing a high percentage of fixed carbon and a low percentage of volatile matter. It has the highest carbon content, the fewest impurities, and the highest energy density of all types of coal and is the highest ranking of coals.

Explanation: There are four ranks of coal

Coal rank measures the carbon content which is in correlation with calorific value and metamorphic grade. It has a very high carbon (over 90%) and low volatile content (below 5%)1.

The concentrated sulfuric acid we use in the laboratory is 98.0% sulfuric acid by weight. Calculate the molality and molarity of

timama [110]

Answer : The molarity and molality of the solution is, 18.29 mole/L and 499.59 mole/Kg respectively.

Solution : Given,

Density of solution = $1.83g/cm^3=1.83g/ml$

Molar mass of sulfuric acid (solute) = 98.079 g/mole

98.0 % sulfuric acid by mass means that 98.0 gram of sulfuric acid is present in 100 g of solution.

Mass of sulfuric acid (solute) = 98.0 g

Mass of solution = 100 g

Mass of solvent = Mass of solution - Mass of solute = 100 - 98.0 = 2 g

First we have to calculate the volume of solution.

$\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solution}}{\text{Density of solution}}=\frac{100g}{1.83g/ml}=54.64ml$

Now we have to calculate the molarity of solution.

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{volume of solution}}=\frac{98.0g\times 1000}{98.079g/mole\times 54.64ml}=18.29mole/L$

Now we have to calculate the molality of the solution.

$Molality=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent}}=\frac{98.0g\times 1000}{98.079g/mole\times 2g}=499.59mole/Kg$

Therefore, the molarity and molality of the solution is, 18.29 mole/L and 499.59 mole/Kg respectively.

. Determine the standard free energy change, ɔ(G p for the formation of S2−(aq) given that the ɔ(G p for Ag+(aq) and Ag2S(s) are

olga nikolaevna [1]

<u>Answer:</u> The standard free energy change of formation of $S^{2-}(aq.)$ is 92.094 kJ/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

$K_{sp}\text{ of }Ag_2S=8\times 10^{-51}$

Relation between standard Gibbs free energy and equilibrium constant follows:

$\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

R = Gas constant = $8.314J/K mol$

T = temperature = $25^oC=[273+25]K=298K$

K = equilibrium constant or solubility product = $8\times 10^{-51}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta G^o=-(8.314J/K.mol)\times 298K\times \ln (8\times 10^{-51})\\\\\Delta G^o=285793.9J/mol=285.794kJ$

For the given chemical equation:

$Ag_2S(s)\rightleftharpoons 2Ag^+(aq.)+S^{2-}(aq.)$

The equation used to calculate Gibbs free change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta G^o_f_{(reactant)}]$

The equation for the Gibbs free energy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta G^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta G^o_f_{(Ag^+(aq.))})+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))})]-[(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(Ag_2S(s))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta G^o_f_{(Ag_2S(s))}=-39.5kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o_f_{(Ag^+(aq.))}=77.1kJ/mol\\\Delta G^o=285.794kJ$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$285.794=[(2\times 77.1)+(1\times \Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))})]-[(1\times (-39.5))]\\\\\Delta G^o_f_{(S^{2-}(aq.))=92.094J/mol$

Hence, the standard free energy change of formation of $S^{2-}(aq.)$ is 92.094 kJ/mol
