Calculate the amount of energy required to boil 25.00 g of mercury.

Chemistry

Answer:

C. 7.4 kJ

Explanation:

Let assume that Mercury is at room temperature (25 °C). The energy required to boil the sample of mercury is the sum of sensible and latent heats. Mercury has a fussion and boiling points of -38.83 °C and 356.7 °C, respectively, and a specific heat of 138\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}. Then:

Q = (25\,g)\cdot \left[\left(0.138\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (356.7^{\circ}C - 25^{\circ}C) + 296\,\frac{J}{g}  \right]

Q = 8544.365\,J

The option that offers the best approximation to the result is C.

A chemist must dilute 34.3mL of 1.72mM aqueous calcium sulfate solution until the concentration falls to 1.00mM. He'll do this b
EastWind [94]

Answer:

58.9mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume  = 34.3mL    = 0.0343dm³

Initial concentration  = 1.72mM   = 1.72 x 10⁻³moldm⁻³

Final concentration  = 1.00mM = 1 x 10⁻³ moldm⁻³

Unknown:

Final volume  =?

Solution:

Often times, the concentration of a standard solution may have to be diluted to a lower one by adding distilled water. To find the find the final volume, we must recognize that the number of moles of the substance in initial and final solutions are the same.

   Therefore;

              C₁V₁  =  C₂V₂

where C and V are concentration and 1 and 2 are initial and final states.

        now input the variables;

                      1.72 x 10⁻³ x  0.0343 = 1 x 10⁻³  x V₂

                        V₂ = 0.0589dm³ = 58.9mL
