Given 3.72 g of P and 21.28g of Cl, converting these to moles: ( 3.72 g P)(mol P/30.97 g P) = 0.12 mol P (21.28 g Cl)(mol Cl/35.45 g Cl) = 0.60 mol Cl P:Cl = 0.12/0.60, therefore P: Cl =1/5 Therefore, PCl5                                                      hope it helps

Ethanol melts at -114 degree C. The enthalpy of fusion
Brut [27]

Answer: The heat required is 6.88 kJ.

Explanation:

The conversions involved in this process are :

(1):ethanol(s)(-135^0C)\rightarrow ethanol(s)(-114^0C)\\\\(2):ethanol(s)(-114^0C)\rightarrow ethanol(l)(-114^0C)\\\\(3):ethanol(l)(-114^0C)\rightarrow ethanol(l)(-50^0C)

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change.

\Delta H=[m\times c_{p,s}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]+n\times \Delta H_{fusion}+[m\times c_{p,l}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]+n\times \Delta H_{vap}+[m\times c_{p,g}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy change = ?

m = mass of ethanol = 25.0 g

c_{p,s} = specific heat of solid ethanol= 0.97 J/gK

c_{p,l} = specific heat of liquid ethanol = 2.31 J/gK

n = number of moles of ethanol = \frac{\text{Mass of ethanol}}{\text{Molar mass of ethanol}}=\frac{25.0g}{46g/mole}=0.543mole

\Delta H_{fusion} = enthalpy change for fusion = 5.02 KJ/mole = 5020 J/mole

T_{final}-T_{initial}=\Delta T = change in temperature

The value of change in temperature always same in Kelvin and degree Celsius.

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

\Delta H=[25.0 g\times 0.97J/gK\times (-114-(-135)K]+0.534mole\times 5020J/mole+[25.0g\times 2.31J/gK\times (-50-(-114))K]

\Delta H=6885.93J=6.88kJ     (1 KJ = 1000 J)

Therefore, the heat required is 6.88 kJ

What is the percentage composition of each element in Fe(OH)3
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Fe =52.2%, O = 44.9%, H = 2.81%

Explanation:

Percentage composition is also known as percentage by mass.

First, find the Mr of the compound.

Mr of Fe(OH)₃ = 55.8 + (16 × 3) + (1 × 3)

= 106.8

Now Divide the mass of the element, as per the compound, by the Mr of the compound found and times that by 100.

% composition of Fe = \frac{55.8}{106.8} × 100 = 52.2%

% composition of O = \frac{16*3}{106.8} × 100 = 44.9%

[There are 3 oxygen atoms in the compound Fe(OH)₃, so we will multiply the atomic mass of oxygen with the number of atoms in the compound: 16×3 ]

% composition of H = \frac{1*3}{106.8} × 100 = 2.81%

[There are 3 hydrogen atoms in the compound Fe(OH)₃, so we will multiply the atomic mass of hydrogen with the number of atoms in the compound: 1×3 ]
