Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

          P_{bar} = 745 torr

          \Delta P = - 50 (the value is negative because on the open side its level is lower than the side connected to the gas)

Now, formula to calculate the pressure of neon gas will be as follows.

                 P_{neon} = P_{bar} + \Delta P            

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

               P_{neon} = P_{bar} + \Delta P        

                   = 745 torr + (- 50 torr)            

                   = 695 torr

Thus, we can conclude that the neon pressure is 695 torr.

What are the two basic ways in which ions form from atoms?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

An ion is an atom or group of atoms that has an electric charge. When an atom loses an electron, it loses a negative charge and becomes a positive ion. When an atom gains an electron, it gains a negative charge and becomes a negative ion. a sodium ion forms when a sodium atom loses one electron and becomes positively charged. a chloride ion forms when a chlorine atom gains one electron and becomes negatively charged.

Hope this helps,

Which of the following elements is going to be the most reactive and why? Nitrogen or Oxygen?
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(C) Oxygen because it has the strongest attractive force and the largest

electronegativity

Explanation:

Oxygen will be most reactive

configuration = 1s^22s^22p^4

As oxygen need only two electrons to complete its octet.

Oxygen will have stronger force than nitrogen as it will tend to pull electrons more to complete its octet. Also along the period electronegativity increases so oxygen has higher electronegativity than nitrogen

The change in entropy is related to the change in the number of moles of gas molecules. Determine the change in moles of gas for
tester [92]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

The change in entropy is related to the change in the number of moles of gas molecules. Determine the change in moles of gas for each of the reactions and decide if the entropy increases decreases or has little to no change:

A. K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s)

B. CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)

C. CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)

D. N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g)

Answer: A. K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s) : decreases

B. CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2(g) : decreases

C. CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g): no change

D. N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g) : increases

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as the randomness of the system.

Entropy is said to increase when the randomness of the system increase, is said to decrease when the randomness of the system decrease and is said to have no change when the randomness remains same.

In reaction K(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow KO_2(s), as gaseous reactant is changed to solid product, entropy decreases.

In reaction CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g), as 4 moles of gaseous reactants is changed to 2 moles of gaseous product, entropy decreases.

In reaction CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g), as 3 moles of gaseous reactants is changed to 3 moles of gaseous product, entropy has no change.

In reaction  N_2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO(g)+O_2(g) , as 1 mole of gaseous reactant is changed to 3 moles of gaseous product, entropy increases.

Use bond energies to calculate the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane. Average bond energies in kJ/mol C-C 347, C
ivanzaharov [21]

The enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane 2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O calculated from the average bond energies of the compounds is -2860 kJ/mol.

The reaction is:

2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O  (1)  

The enthalpy of reaction (1) is given by:

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}   (2)

Where:

r: is for reactants

p: is for products

The bonds of the compounds of reaction (1) are:

  • 2CH₃CH₃: 2 moles of 6 C-H bonds + 2 moles of 1 C-C bond
  • 7O₂: 7 moles of 1 O=O bond  
  • 4CO₂: 4 moles of 2 C=O bonds  
  • 6H₂O: 6 moles of 2 H-O bonds

Hence, the enthalpy of reaction (1) is (eq 2):

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}

\Delta H = 2*\Delta H_{CH_{3}CH_{3}} + 7\Delta H_{O_{2}} - (4*\Delta H_{CO_{2}} + 6*\Delta H_{H_{2}O})      

\Delta H = 2*(6*\Delta H_{C-H} + \Delta H_{C-C}) + 7\Delta H_{O=O} - (4*2*\Delta H_{C=O} + 6*2*\Delta H_{H-O})  

\Delta H = [2*(6*413 + 347) + 7*498 - (4*2*799 + 6*2*467)] kJ/mol  

\Delta H = -2860 kJ/mol          

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane is -2860 kJ/mol.
