Empirical   formula  is  calculated   as  follows

calculate  the  moles  of  each  element,  that  is   %  composition/  molar  mass
molar  masses  (  Si=  28.09g/mol ,  Cl=  35.5  g/mol,  I=126.9 g/mol)

moles  of  silicon =  7.962/28.09g/mol=  0.283  moles
moles  of  chlorine =  20.10 / 35.5g/mol =  0.566  moles
moles  of  iodine=  71.94 / 126.9  g/mol=  0.567  moles

divide  each  mole   with  smallest    mole  (0.283)
that  is    silicon =  0.283/0.283= 1 mole
             chlorine =  0.566/0.283=  2 mole
            Iodine=  o.567/0.283= 2  moles
empirical  formula  is  therefore=  SiCl2I2

charle [14.2K]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When the volume of a container is decreased and same number of gas molecules are present inside the container at the same temperature then it means that more number of gas molecules are spread per unit volume.

As earlier when the volume of container was more then the molecules were widely spread inside the container but on decreasing the volume of container, molecules come closer to each other and hence there will be increase in molecules per unit volume.

All elements have a AHf, of ___
stellarik [79]

All elements have a AHf, of <u>0</u>

kJ/mole at standard temperature and pressure.

<h3>What is an element?</h3>

An element can be defined as a substance which cannot be split into two or more simpler forms by an ordinary chemical process

Below are the list of the first twenty elements:

  • Hydrogen
  • Helium
  • Lithium
  • Berylium
  • Boron
  • Carbon
  • Nitrogen
  • Oxygen
  • Fluorine
  • Neon
  • Sodium
  • Magnesium
  • Aluminum
  • Silicon
  • Phosphorus
  • Sulphur
  • Chlorine
  • Argon
  • Potassium
  • Calcium

So therefore, all elements have a AHf, of <u>0</u>

kJ/mole at standard temperature and pressure.

The superheated water vapor is at 15 MPa and 350°C. The gas constant, the critical pressure, and the critical temperature of wat
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

0.01917 m^3/kg.

Explanation:

Given:

P = 15 MPa

= 1.5 × 10^4 kPa

T = 350 °C

= 350 + 273

= 623 K

Molar mass of water, m = (2 × 1) + 16

= 18 g/mol

= 0.018 kg/mol

R = 0.4615 kPa·m3/kg·K

Using ideal gas equation,

P × V = n × R × T

But n = mass/molar mass

V = (R × T)/P

V/M = (R × T)/P × m

= (0.4615 × 623)/1.5 × 10^4

= 0.01917 m^3/kg.

At 150°C the decomposition of acetaldehyde CH3CHO to methane is a first order reaction. If the
Crank

The decomposition time : 7.69 min ≈ 7.7 min

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

rate constant : 0.029/min

a concentration of  0.050 mol L  to a concentration of 0.040 mol L

Required

the decomposition time

Solution

The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time

For first-order reaction :

[A]=[Ao]e^(-kt)

or

ln[A]=-kt+ln(A0)

Input the value :

ln(0.040)=-(0.029)t+ln(0.050)

-3.219 = -0.029t -2.996

-0.223 =-0.029t

t=7.69 minutes
