(a) Consider the reaction of hydrogen sulfide with methane, given below:
Burka [1]

Answer:

a. H2S(g)/t = 1.48 mol/s

CS2(g)/t = 0.740mol/s

H2(g)/t = 2.96mol/s

b. Ptot /t = 981torr/min

Explanation:

a. Based on the reaction:

CH4(g) + 2 H2S(g) → CS2(g) + 4 H2(g)

<em>1 mole of CH4 reacts with 2 moles of H2S producing 1 mole of CS2 and 4 moles of 4H2</em>

<em />

If CH4 decreases at the rate of 0.740mol/s, H2S decreases twice faster, that is 0.740mol/s = 1.48 mol/s

CS2 is produced with the same rate of CH4 because 1 mole of CH4 produce 1 mole of CS2 = 0.740mol/s

The H2 is produced four times faster than CH4 is decreased, that is:

0.740mol/s * 4 = 2.96mol/s

b. With the reaction:

2 NH3(g) → N2(g) + 3 H2(g)

2 moles of ammonia are consumed whereas 1 mole of N2 and 3 moles of H2 are produced.

That means 2 moles of gas are consumed and 4 moles of gas are produced.

If the NH3 decreases at a rate of 327torr/min, the gases are produced in a rate twice faster. That is 327torr/min*2 =

654torr/min

The rate of change of the total pressure is rate of reactants + rate of products:

654torr/min + 327torr/min =

981torr/min

Elemental iodine (I 2) is a solid at room temperature. What is the major attractive force that exists among different I 2 molecu
Ulleksa [173]

Explanation:

As I_{2} is a covalent compound because it is made up by the combination of two non-metal atoms. Atomic number of an iodine atom is 53 and it contains 7 valence electrons as it belongs to group 17 of the periodic table.

Therefore, sharing of electrons will take place when two iodine atoms chemically combine with each other leading to the formation of a covalent bonding.

Hence, weak forces like london dispersion forces will be present between a molecule of I_{2}.

The weak intermolecular forces which can arise either between nucleus and electrons or between electron-electron are known as dispersion forces. These forces are also known as London dispersion forces and these are temporary in nature.

thus, we can conclude that london dispersion force is the major attractive force that exists among different I_{2} molecules in the solid.

Structure of 2,3-dimethylheptane
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Please find the structure of the hydrocarbon in the attachment section and details on how to draw it in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Heptane is a member of the alkane group, which has a general formula of CnH2n+2. If n in heptane is 7, this means that the chemical formula for heptane will be C7H16 i.e.

= C7H2(7) + 2

= C7H14+2

= C7H16

C7H16 is the chemical formula for heptane, which is a linear hydrocarbon with 7 carbon atoms and 16 hydrogen atoms. However, in the name of the hydrocarbon compound given in the question: 2,3-dimethylheptane;

- Two methyl groups (CH3) has a substituted two hydrogen atoms specifically at carbon 2 and 3 respectively. Therefore, the new chemical formula of 2,3-dimethylheptane will be: C7H14(CH3)2

Please find the structural formula of the compound; 2,3-dimethylheptane as an attachment.
