Answer: conversion of ice to steam
Explanation: Endothermic process is one in which energy is absorbed by the system.
Conversion of ice to steam is change of solid phase to gaseous phase, thus energy is required to break the strong inter molecular forces of attraction in solids to convert it into gaseous phase.
Conversion of steam to ice, conversion of steam to water and conversion of water to ice releases energy and are examples of exothermic processes.
For this system, we use Dalton's law of partial pressures where the total pressure of a gas mixture is said to be equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the gases. The partial pressure of each gas would be calculated by the product of the mole fraction and the original pressure of the gas. We do as follows:
Total pressure = x1P1 + x2P2
Total pressure = (2.0 / 7.0 )(3.5) + (1.5/7.0)(2.6)
Total pressure = 1.56 atm
First find the number of moles of KSCN is in 4.40g of KSCN
1. Number of moles = mass given (4.40g) / molecular weight(MW) (KSCN)
- to calculate MW, look for each element in the periodic table and add their atomic weight
2. Convert 200mL to liters
3. Concentration = number of moles/ volume in liters from (#2)
