Through the complete electrolysis of a sample of pure water, a student collects 14.0 grams of hydrogen gas and 112.0 grams of ox

ygen gas. What mass of water (in grams), if it reacted completely, was initially present? (The electrolysis of water is the use of an electric current to decompose it into its component elements.) Report your answer to the nearest tenth

Answer:

126.0g of water were initially present

Explanation:

The electrolysis of water occurs as follows:

2H₂O(l) ⇄ 2H₂(g) + O₂(g)

<em>Where 2 moles of water produce 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen.</em>

<em />

To find the mass of water we need to determine moles of oxygen and hydrogen, thus:

<em>Moles Hydrogen:</em>

14.0g H₂ ₓ (1mol / 2g H₂) = 7 moles H₂

<em>Moles Oxygen:</em>

112.0g O₂ ₓ (1mol / 32g) = 3.5 moles O₂

Based on the chemical equation, the moles of water initially present were 7 moles (That produce 7 moles H₂ and 3.5 moles O₂). The mass of 7 moles of H₂O is:

7 moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =

<h3>126.0g of water were initially present</h3>

Phthalates used as plasticizers in rubber and plastic products are believed to act as hormone mimics in humans. The value of ΔHc
jeka94

Answer:

T_f = 25.05°C

Explanation:

Given:

the value of ΔHcomb (heat of combustion) for dimethylphthalate (C10H10O4) is = 4685 kJ/mol.

mass = 0.905g of dimethylphthalate

molar mass = 194.18g dimethylphthalate

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = ???

T_i = 21.5°C

C_{calorimeter} = 6.15 kJ/°C

T_f = ???

since we have our molar mass and mass of dimethylphthalate ;we can determine the number of moles as;

0.905g of dimethylphthalate ×  \frac{1 mole (dimethylphthalate)}{194.184g(dimethylphthalate)}

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = 0.000466 moles

Heat released = moles of dimethylphthalate × heat of combustion

=  0.000466 moles × 4685 kJ

= 21.84 kJ

∴ Heat absorbed by the calorimeter =  C_{calorimeter} (T_f-T_i} )

21.84 kJ =6.15 kJ/°C * (T_f-21,5^0C)

21.84 KJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f) - (6.15 kJ/^0C*21.5^0C)

21.84 KJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f) - 132.225 kJ

21.84 KJ + 132.225 kJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)

154.065 kJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)

T_f = \frac{154.065kJ}{6.15kJ/^0C}

T_f =25.05°C

Which of the following mixture types is characterized by the settling of particles?
torisob [31]
The answer is B. Suspension. Suspension mixtures are composed of two or more materials mixed together wherein the solute particles are usually larger than those found in a solution or colloid. In cases of solid-fluid suspension mixtures, the solid solute particles tend to settle at the bottom of the mixture after some time.
