Answer:

Considering that water boils at 92ºC, the water will boil and dry before the food has finished cooking.   So, the time needed will be shorter.

Explanation:

  The boiling temperature value of water, other liquids and solutions is influenced by atmospheric pressure.  The higher the altitude, the lower the boiling point. For example, Mount Everest is in the Himalayan Mountain Range, whose altitude is 8848m and its atmospheric pressure is 240 mmHg. At this location, the water boils much faster than at sea level, boiling at approximately 71 °C.

   When we put the water to heat, the energy received by the molecules enables them to pass into the vapor state. Initially we can see at the bottom of the container the formation of water vapor bubbles, and only after receiving more energy in the form of heat do these bubbles rise and are released on the surface, boiling.  The bubbles are at the bottom of the container because atmospheric pressure exerts a force on the surface of the liquid, as if pushing the vapor bubble downward. The pressure within the bubble increases and increases until it equals atmospheric pressure and thus rises to a boiling point. The temperature at the time this occurs is the boiling point.

   Thus, the higher the pressure on the surface, the more difficult it will be to supplant it and the liquid to boil, so the boiling point will be higher. On the other hand, if the pressure is lower, it will be easier to boil and the boiling point will be lower.

Use the balanced chemical equation below. How many grams of the product are formed when 2.34 g of sulfur is completely reacted w
levacccp [35]

Answer:

7.89 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

S₈ + 16 F₂(g) → 8 SF₄

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 2.34 g of S₈

The molar mass of S₈ is 256.52 g/mol.

2.34g \times \frac{1mol}{256.52g} = 9.12 \times 10^{-3} mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of SF₄ produced from 9.12 × 10⁻³ mol of S₈

The molar ratio of S₈ to SF₄ is 1:8. The moles of SF₄ produced are 8/1 × 9.12 × 10⁻³ mol = 0.0730 mol

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.0730 moles of SF₄

The molar mass of SF₄ is 108.07 g/mol.

0.0730 mol \times \frac{108.07 g}{mol} = 7.89 g
