Leona [35]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The energy required to change the phase of a substance is known as a latent heat.

Explanation:

The energy require is Q= m L, where m is the mass of the substance and L is the specific latent heat of fusion or vaporisation which measures the heat energy to change 1 kg of a solid into a liquid. hope this helps you :)

First we need to calculate the number of moles of FeS_{2}:

number of moles = mass (grams) / molecular mass (g/mol)

number of moles of FeS_{2} = 198.2/120 = 1.65 moles

From the chemical reaction we deduce that:

if            4 moles of FeS_{2} produces 8 moles of SO_{2}

then  1.65 moles of FeS_{2} produces X moles of SO_{2}

X = (1.65×8)/4 = 3.3 moles of SO_{2}

Now we can calculate the mass of SO_{2}:

mass (grams) = number of moles × molecular mass (grams/mole)

mass of SO_{2} = 3.3×64 = 211.2 g

131i has a half-life of 8.04 days. assuming you start with a 1.53 mg sample of 131i, how many mg will remain after 13.0 days ___
inn [45]
For this problem we can use half-life formula and radioactive decay formula.

Half-life formula,
t1/2 = ln 2 / λ

where, t1/2 is half-life and λ is radioactive decay constant.
t1/2 = 8.04 days

Hence,         
8.04 days    = ln 2 / λ                         
λ   = ln 2 / 8.04 days

Radioactive decay law,
Nt = No e∧(-λt)

where, Nt is amount of compound at t time, No is amount of compound at  t = 0 time, t is time taken to decay and λ is radioactive decay constant.

Nt = ?
No = 1.53 mg
λ   = ln 2 / 8.04 days = 0.693 / 8.04 days
t    = 13.0 days 

By substituting,
Nt = 1.53 mg e∧((-0.693/8.04 days) x 13.0 days))
Nt = 0.4989 mg = 0.0.499 mg

Hence, mass of remaining sample after 13.0 days = 0.499 mg

The answer is "e"

A student dissolves of styrene in of a solvent with a density of . The student notices that the volume of the solvent does not c
raketka [301]

Answer:

0.576M and 0.655m

Explanation:

<em>...Dissolves 15.0g of styrene (C₈H₈) in 250.mL of a solvent with a density of 0.88g/mL...</em>

<em />

Molarity is defined as moles of solute (Styrene in this case) per liter of solution whereas molality is the moles of solute per kg of solvent. Thus, we need to find the moles of styrene, the volume in liters of the solution and the mass in kg of the solvent as follows:

<em>Moles styrene:</em>

Molar mass C₈H₈:

8C = 12.01g/mol*8 = 96.08g/mol

8H = 1.005g/mol* 8 = 8.04g/mol

96.08g/mol + 8.04g/mol = 104.12g/mol

Moles of 15.0g of styrene are:

15.0g * (1mol / 104.12g) = 0.144 moles of styrene

<em>Liters solution:</em>

250mL * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.250L

<em>kg solvent:</em>

250mL * (0.88g/mL) * (1kg / 1000g) = 0.220kg

Molarity is:

0.144 moles / 0.250L =

<h3>0.576M</h3>

Molality is:

0.144 moles / 0.220kg =

<h3>0.655m</h3>
