Answer;

D) Gamma ray

Explanation;

-Electromagnetic Waves may help fight Brain cancer. The use of electromagnetic radiations or waves to treat cancer is called radiation therapy, in which cancer treatment uses high doses of radiations to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors.

-Gamma rays or gamma radiations are the main electromagnetic radiations used for this radiation therapy.

A wave is a disturbance that carries energy from one place to another. Matter is NOT carried with the wave! A wave can move through matter (a medium). If it must have a medium, it is called a mechanical wave.

You place 36.5 ml of 0.266 M Ba(OH)2 in a coffee-cup calorimeter at 25.00°C and add 56.6 ml of 0.648 M HCl, also at 25.00°C. Aft
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer : The enthalpy of reaction (\Delta H_{rxn}) is, -96.9 kJ/mole

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of solution.

Mass=Density\times Volume

Volume of solution = Volume of HCl + Volume of Ba(OH)_2

Volume of solution = 56.6 mL + 36.5 mL

Volume of solution = 93.1 mL

Density of solution = 1 g/mL

Mass=1g/mL\times 93.1mL=93.1g

The mass of solution is, 93.1 grams.

Now we have to calculate the heat released in the system.

Formula used :

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

or,

Q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)

where,

Q = heat released = ?

m = mass = 93.1 g

C_p = specific heat capacity of water = 4.184J/g^oC

T_1 = initial temperature  = 25.0^oC

T_2 = final temperature  = 29.83^oC

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

Q=93.1g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times (29.83-25.00)^ioC

Q=1881.43J=1.88kJ        (1 kJ = 1000 J)

Now we have to calculate the moles of Ba(OH)_2 and HCl.

\text{Moles of }Ba(OH)_2=\text{Concentration of }Ba(OH)_2\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }Ba(OH)_2=0.266M\times 0.0365L=9.71\times 10^{-3}mol

and,

\text{Moles of }HCl=\text{Concentration of }HCl\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }HCl=0.648M\times 0.0566L=3.66\times 10^{-2}mol

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

Ba(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow BaCl_2+2H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of Ba(OH)_2 react with 2 mole of HCl

So, 9.71\times 10^{-3}  moles of Ba(OH)_2 react with 9.71\times 10^{-3}\times 2=0.0194 moles of HCl

From this we conclude that, HCl is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and Ba(OH)_2 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of H_2O

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of Ba(OH)_2 react to give 2 mole of H_2O

So, 9.71\times 10^{-3}  moles of Ba(OH)_2 react with 9.71\times 10^{-3}\times 2=0.0194 moles of H_2O

Now we have to calculate the change in enthalpy of the reaction.

\Delta H_{rxn}=-\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H_{rxn} = enthalpy of reaction = ?

q = heat of reaction = 1.88 kJ

n = moles of reaction = 0.0194 mole

Now put all the given values in above expression, we get:

\Delta H_{rxn}=-\frac{1.88kJ}{0.0194mole}=-96.9kJ/mole

The negative sign indicates that the heat is released.

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction (\Delta H_{rxn}) is, -96.9 kJ/mole

At 500K, the equilibrium constant for the reaction N2O4D2NO2 is 1.5 x 10^3. What is the equilibrium constant for the reaction: 6
Veronika [31]

Answer:

K = 2.96x10⁻¹⁰

Explanation:

Based on the initial reaction:

N2O4 ⇄ 2NO2; K = 1.5x10³

Using Hess's law, we can multiply this reaction changing K:

3 times this reaction:

3N2O4 ⇄ 6NO2; K = (1.5x10³)³ =3.375x10⁹

The inverse reaction has a K of:

6NO2 ⇄ 3N2O4 K = 1/3.375x10⁹;

<h3>K = 2.96x10⁻¹⁰</h3>
