Answer: The correct answer is option(A).

Explanation:

Litmus paper is used to test whether given solution is acidic or basic(alkaline).

There are two types of litmus paper:

1) Blue Litmus paper: The color of this litmus paper is blue, when treated with acid it turns red and when treated with base it remains blue.

2) Red Litmus paper:The color of this litmus paper is red, when treated with acid it remains red and when treated with base it turns blue.

Since, the substance in beaker did not change the color of blue litmus paper which means that it is a base.

Why is melting point considered a physical property
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Because you can physically see the object melting when it comes to the melting point. The objects texture, color, temperature, shape, and state of matter (solid, liquid, gas) are possibly changing.

Predict the sign of ΔSsys for each of the following processes. Which are positive? (a) Gasoline vapors mix with air in a car eng
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Positive: a and b

Negative: c

Explanation:

The entropy (S) is the measure of the randomness of the system, and it intends to increase. The randomness can be determined by the energy of the molecules, their velocity and how distance they are between the other molecules.

When the entropy increases, ΔS is positive, when the entropy decreases, ΔS is negative. So, when gasoline mix with air in a car engine, the process intends to continue, the randomness increases and ΔS is positive. When hot air expands, the distance between the molecules increases, so ΔS is positive.

But, when humidity condenses, the molecules stay closer, so there's a decrease in the randomness, then ΔS is negative.

A mixture of caco3 and (nh4)2co3 is 60.7 % co3 by mass. part a find the mass percent of caco3 in the mixture.
blagie [28]

The mixture contains:

CaCO3 + (NH4)2CO3 in which the amount of carbonate CO3 = 60.7% by mass

Let, the total mass = 100 grams

Mass of CaCO3 = x grams

Mass of (NH4)2CO3 = y grams

Thus,       x + y = 100 ------------(1)

Mass of CO3 = 60.7% = 60.7 g

Molar mass of CO3 = 60 g/mol

Total # moles of CO3 = 60.7 g/60 g.mol-1 = 1.012 moles

The total moles of CO3 comes from CaCO3 and (NH4)2CO3. Therefore,

moles CaCO3 + moles (NH4)2CO3 = 1.012

mass CaCO3/molar mass CaCO3 + mass (NH4)2 CO3/molar mass = 1.012

x/100 + y/96 = 1.012---------(2)

based on equation 1 we can write: y = 100-x

x/100 + (100-x)/96 = 1.012

x = 71.2 g

Mass of CaCO3 = 71.2 g

Hydrogen and Methanol have both been proposed as alternatives to hydrocarbon fuels. Write balanced reactions for the complete co
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The order of energy released per mass is

CH₃OH (-2.268 × 10⁴ kJ/kg) < C₈H₁₈ (-4.826 × 10⁴ kJ/kg) < H₂ (-2.835 × 10⁵ kJ/kg)

Explanation:

In order to calculate the enthalpy of a reaction (ΔH°r) we can use the following expression.

ΔH°r = ∑np × ΔH°f(p) - ∑nr × ΔH°f(r)

where

ΔH°f(i) are the enthalpies of formation of reactants and products

ni are the moles of reactants and products

<u>Combustion of hydrogen</u>

H₂(g) + 1/2 O₂(g) ⇒ H₂O(l)

ΔH°r = 2 mol × ΔH°f(H₂O) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(H₂) - 1/2 mol × ΔH°f(O₂)

ΔH°r = 2 mol × (-285.8 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × 0 - 1/2 mol × 0

ΔH°r = -571.6 kJ

571.6 kJ are released when 1 mole of H₂ is burned. The amount of heat released per kilogram is:

\frac{-571.6kJ}{1molH_{2}} .\frac{1molH_{2}}{2.016gH_{2}} .\frac{10^{3}gH_{2} }{1kgH_{2}} =-2.835 \times 10^{5} kJ/kgH_{2}

<u>Combustion of methanol</u>

CH₃OH(l) + 3/2 O₂(g) ⇒ CO₂(g) + 2 H₂O(l)

ΔH°r = 1 mol × ΔH°f(CO₂) + 2 mol × ΔH°f(H₂O) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(CH₃OH) - 3/2 mol × ΔH°f(O₂)

ΔH°r = 1 mol × (-393.5 kJ/mol) + 2 mol × (-285.8 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-238.4 kJ/mol) - 3/2 mol × 0

ΔH°r = -726.7 kJ

726.7 kJ are released when 1 mole of CH₃OH is burned. The amount of heat released per kilogram is:

\frac{-726.7kJ}{1molCH_{3}OH} .\frac{1molCH_{3}OH}{32.04gCH_{3}OH} .\frac{10^{3}gCH_{3}OH }{1kgCH_{3}OH} =-2.268 \times 10^{4} kJ/kgCH_{3}OH

<u>Combustion of octane</u>

C₈H₁₈(l) + 12.5 O₂(g) ⇒ 8 CO₂(g) + 9 H₂O(l)

ΔH°r = 8 mol × ΔH°f(CO₂) + 9 mol × ΔH°f(H₂O) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(C₈H₁₈) - 12.5 mol × ΔH°f(O₂)

ΔH°r = 8 mol × (-393.5 kJ/mol) + 9 mol × (-285.8 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-208.4 kJ/mol) - 12.5 mol × 0

ΔH°r = -5511.8 kJ

5511.8 kJ are released when 1 mole of C₈H₁₈ is burned. The amount of heat released per kilogram is:

\frac{-5511.8kJ}{1molC_{8}H_{18}} .\frac{1molC_{8}H_{18}}{114.2gC_{8}H_{18}} .\frac{10^{3}gC_{8}H_{18} }{1kgC_{8}H_{18}} =-4.826 \times 10^{4} kJ/kgC_{8}H_{18}
