Answer : At constant pressure work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Explanation :

Work done : Any quantity that flows across the boundary of a system during a change in its state and it completely convertible into the lifting of a weight in the surroundings.

Formula for work done is:

w=-p_{ext}dV

Sign convention :

  • When volume expand then system work that means work done by the system.

w = (-ve)

  • When volume compress then surrounding work that means work done on the system.

w = (+ve)

The given reaction is:

Hg(l)\rightarrow Hg(g)

This is a evaporation process in which phase changes from liquid state to gaseous state at constant temperature.

At constant pressure, work depends only on volume.

In evaporation process, the volume expand that means work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Sign convention is, w = (-ve)

Thus, at constant pressure work is done by the system on the surroundings.

You estimate that you sent 135 texts last week but when you get the bill, it was actually 175. Calculate the percent error
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer: -40

Explanation: Percent error is calculated by subtracting the value you actually recieved from the literature value (175 in your case)  SO your answer should be 135-175=-40.

Dichlorine monoxide, Cl2O is sometimes used as a powerful chlorinating agent in research. It can be produced by passing chlorine
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

% yield =  82.5%

Explanation:

HgO + 2Cl₂ →  HgCl₂ +  Cl₂O

Our reactants are:

  • HgO and Cl₂

Our products are:

  • HgCl₂ +  Cl₂O

We do not have information about moles of reactants, but we do know the theoretical yield and the grams of product, in this case Cl₂O, we have produced.

Percent yield = (Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100

Theoretical yield is the mass of product which is produced by sufficent reactant. We replace data:

% yield = (0.71 g/0.86g) . 100 = 82.5%

How many kilograms of potassium iodide (ki) are needed to make 1.25 l of a 4.41 m ki solution?
Lapatulllka [165]
C = n/V
n = C×V
n = 4,41M × 1,25L
n = 5,5125 mol

mKI: 39+127 = 166 g/mol

1 mol --------- 166g
5,5125 mol --- X
X = 166×5,5125 = 915,075g KI
