We know that Molarity = # mol/L

In the question, we are given grams - so we need to calculate the number of moles that we are dealing with. We can do this by first finding out what the molecular formula of calcium hydroxide is: Ca(OH)_{2

This means that we have 1 calcium and 2 hydroxides.

We can find the number of moles by taking the grams given divided by the molar mass of the molecule. We can find the molar mass of the molecule by taking each atomic mass of each atom (found on the periodic table) and adding them together:

Ca = 40.08g
O = 15.999g
H = 1.008g

We have 1 calcium, 2 oxygens, and 2 hydrogens. So let's add the atomic masses together:

40.08 + 2(15.999) + 2(1.008) = 74.094g

Now that we have the molar mass, we can find the number of moles due to already knowing the given amount in the question:

54.21g/74.09g = 0.73 moles of Ca(OH)_{2}

Now that we know the number of moles, we can solve for the molarity; The other part of the question gives us 560 mL of water - but this can quickly be converted to liters by moving the decimal to the left 3 places => 0.560 L

Knowing all of this information, we can plug it into the molarity equation:

Molarity = 0.73 mol/0.56 L
Molarity = 1.30

The molarity of the solution is 1.3 M.

Three kilograms of steam is contained in a horizontal, frictionless piston and the cylinder is heated at a constant pressure of
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Final temperature: 659.8ºC

Expansion work: 3*75=225 kJ

Internal energy change: 275 kJ

Explanation:

First, considering both initial and final states, write the energy balance:

U_{2}-U_{1}=Q-W

Q is the only variable known. To determine the work, it is possible to consider the reversible process; the work done on a expansion reversible process may be calculated as:

dw=Pdv

The pressure is constant, so:  w=P(v_{2}-v_{1} )=0.5*100*1.5=75\frac{kJ}{kg} (There is a multiplication by 100 due to the conversion of bar to kPa)

So, the internal energy change may be calculated from the energy balance (don't forget to multiply by the mass):

U_{2}-U_{1}=500-(3*75)=275kJ

On the other hand, due to the low pressure the ideal gas law may be appropriate. The ideal gas law is written for both states:

P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{1}

P_{2}V_{2}=nRT_{2}\\V_{2}=2.5V_{1}\\P_{2}=P_{1}\\2.5P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{2}  

Subtracting the first from the second:

1.5P_{1}V_{1}=nR(T_{2}-T_{1})

Isolating T_{2}:

T_{2}=T_{1}+\frac{1.5P_{1}V_{1}}{nR}

Assuming that it is water steam, n=0.1666 kmol

V_{1}=\frac{nRT_{1}}{P_{1}}=\frac{8.314*0.1666*373.15}{500} =1.034m^{3}

T_{2}=100+\frac{1.5*500*1.034}{0.1666*8.314}=659.76 ºC

A student is trying to develop a model of an instant heat pack. What is the essential characteristic of the chemical reaction th
Lana71 [14]

The standard enthalpy of reaction should be negative.

<h3>What is enthalpy?</h3>

A thermodynamic quantity equivalent to the total heat content of a system. It is equal to the internal energy of the system plus the product of pressure and volume.

Inside the heat pack are two chemicals that get mixed when you smush them together. As they mix, some weak bonds are broken, which takes a little bit of energy. But new, stronger bonds form which release energy. Releasing that energy causes the surroundings to heat up.

Hence, option B is correct.

Which statement about gases is true?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

B) They are made up of particles that travel in a curved path when in motion.

Explanation:

We know that gas, being a state of matter, is made up of particles. John Dalton's solid-sphere model was proven to be incorrect by Ernest Rutherford's gold foil experiment.

These particles do NOT always move very slowly. There are multiple different factors that affect the speed of the particles such as temperature or concentration.

Describe a landforms influence water flow<br> ❗️20 POINTS❗️
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Water moving across the earth in streams and rivers pushes along soil and breaks down pieces of rock in a process called erosion. The moving water carries away rock and soil from some areas and deposits them in other areas, creating new landforms or changing the course of a stream or river.
