Gas y effuses half as fast as o2. what is the molar mass of gas y?

1 answer:

4 0

To solve this question, we will use Graham's law which states that:
(R1 / R2) ^ 2 = M2 / M1 where
R1 and R2 are the rates of effusion and M1 and M2 are the molar masses of the two gases.
From the periodic table, we can calculate the molar mass of O2 as follows:
molar mass of O2 = 2*16 = 32 grams

Therefore we have:
R1 / R2 = Ry / RO2 = 1/2
M1 is My we want to get
M2 is molar mass of O2 = 32 grams
Substitute in the above equation to get the molar mass of y as follows:
(1/2) ^2 = (32/My)
1/4 = 32/My
My = 32*4 = 128

Therefore, molar mass of gas y = 128 grams

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP! CHEMISTRY TUTOR SEE ATTACHED

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{-827.4 kJ}}$

Explanation:

We have three equations:

1. 2H₂S(g) + O₂(g) ⟶ 2S(s, rhombic) + 2H₂O(g) ; ∆H = -442.4 kJ

2. S(s, rhombic) + O₂(g) ⟶ SO₂(g); ∆H = -296.8 kJ

3. PbO(s) + H₂S(g) ⟶ PbS(s) + SO₂(g); ∆H = -104.3 kJ

From these, we must devise the target equation:

4. 2PbS(s) + 3O₂(g) ⟶2PbO(s) + 2SO₂(g); ΔH = ?

The target equation has PbS(s) on the left, so you reverse Equation 3 and double it.

When you reverse an equation, you reverse the sign of its ΔH.

When you double an equation, you double its ΔH.

5. 2PbS(s) + 2H₂O(g) ⟶ 2PbO(s) + 2H₂S(g); ∆H = 208.6 kJ

Equation 5 has 2H₂O on the left. That is not in the target equation.

You need an equation with 2H₂O on the right, so you copy Equation 1.

6. 2H₂S(g) + O₂(g) ⟶ 2S(s, rhombic) + 2H₂O(g) ; ∆H = -442.4 kJ

Equation 6 has 2S(s, rhombic) on the right. That is not in the target equation.

You need an equation with 2S(s, rhombic) on the left, so you double Equation 2.

7. 2S(s, rhombic) + 2O₂(g) ⟶ 2SO₂(g); ∆H = -593.6 kJ

Now, you add equations 5, 6, and 7, cancelling species that appear on opposite sides of the reaction arrows.

When you add equations, you add their ΔH values.

You get the target equation 4:

5. 2PbS(s) + 2H₂O(g) ⟶ 2PbO(s) + 2H₂S(g); ∆H = 208.6 kJ

6. 2H₂S(g) + O₂(g) ⟶ 2S(s) + 2H₂O(g) ; ∆H = -442.4 kJ

7. 2S(s) + 2O₂(g) ⟶ 2SO₂(g); ∆H = -593.6 kJ

4 . 2PbS(s) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2PbO(s) + 2SO₂(g); ΔH = -827.4 kJ

$\Delta H \text{ for the reaction is $ \large \boxed{\textbf{-827.4 kJ}}$}$

Classify each element as a metal, nonmetal, or semimetal. br in cr ca drag the appropriate items to their respective bins. view

goldenfox [79]

Below is the distribution of given elements and additional elements in their respective bins.

Iron, Magnesium, Aluminium, Calcium, Chromium and Indium are classified as Metals due to their hardness, conduction of current and heat, Solid state, formation of metallic bonding and prefers to form cations e.t.c

Oxygen, Neon and Bromine are classified as non-metals. Non-metals are mostly gases except for Bromine. They are highly volatile and prefers to form anions.

Semimetals are those metals which have both properties of metals and non-metals and are also called as metalloids.
