The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The normal boiling point of acetic acid is 118.1°C. If a sample of the acetic acid is at 125.2°C, predict the signs of ∆H, ∆S, and ∆G for the boiling process at this temperature.

A. ∆H > 0, ∆S > 0, ∆G < 0

B. ∆H > 0, ∆S > 0, ∆G > 0

C. ∆H > 0, ∆S < 0, ∆G < 0

D. ∆H < 0, ∆S > 0, ∆G > 0

E. ∆H < 0, ∆S < 0, ∆G > 0

Answer:

A. ∆H > 0, ∆S > 0, ∆G < 0

Explanation:

During boiling, a liquid is converted to vapour. This is a phase change for which heat is absorbed because energy must be taken in to break the intermolecular bonds in the liquid before it can be converted to a gas. Hence ∆H>0

Secondly, a phase change from liquid to gas leads to an increase in entropy hence ∆S>0.

Thirdly, the process is spontaneous. For every spontaneous process ∆G<0

What is the product when magnesium reacts with nitrogen? Mg(s) + N2(g) → Mg2N3(s) Mg3N(s) Mg3N2(s) MgN3(s)
bixtya [17]
Look at the periodic table to find the charge on atoms.
 Magnesium is +2 and Nitrogen is -3. Since there are two nitrogen charge 2*-3 = -6 there needs to be 3 Mg then (3*2+ = 6+) to pair with the two nitrogen.
3 Mg(+2) + 2 N(-3) = Mg3N2

Products: 1-methylcyclohexene, 3-methylcyclohexene, methylenecyclohexane
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reaction that we are considering here is quite a knotty reaction. It is difficult to decide if the mechanism is actually E1 or E2 since both are equally probable based on the mass of scientific evidence regarding this reaction. However, we can easily assume that the methylenecyclohexane was formed by an E1 mechanism.

Looking at the products, one could convincingly assert that the reaction leading to the formation of the two main products proceeds via an E1 mechanism with the formation of a carbocation intermediate as has been shown in mechanism attached to this answer. Possible rearrangement of the carbocation yields the 3-methylcyclohexene product.

Determine the molar mass of a compound that has a density of 0.1633 g/L at STP.<br> (show work)
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

                     M.Mass  =  3.66 g/mol

Data Given:

                  M.Mass  =  M = ??

                  Density  =  d  =  0.1633 g/L

                  Temperature  =  T  =  273.15 K (Standard)

                  Pressure  =  P  =  1 atm (standard)

Solution:

              Let us suppose that the gas is an ideal gas. Therefore, we will apply Ideal Gas equation i.e.

                                             P V = n R T    ---- (1)

Also, we know that;

                       Moles  =  n  =  mass / M.Mass

Or,                                   n  =  m / M

Substituting n in Eq. 1.

                                             P V = m/M R T   --- (2)

Rearranging Eq.2 i.e.

                                             P M = m/V R T   --- (3)

As,

                     Mass / Volume = m/V = Density = d

So, Eq. 3 can be written as,

                                             P M = d R T

Solving for M.Mass i.e.

                                             M = d R T / P

Putting values,

M  =  0.1633 g/L × 0.08205 L.atm.K⁻¹.mol⁻¹ × 273.15 K / 1 atm

M  =  3.66 g/mol

For the following reaction, 38.3 grams of sulfuric acid are allowed to react with 33.5 grams of calcium hydroxide sulfuric acid(
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

What is the maximum amount of calcium sulfate that can be formed? 53.1 grams CaSO4

What is the FORMULA for the limiting reagent? H2SO4

What amount of the excess reagent remains after the reaction is complete? 4.59 grams of Ca(OH)2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of sulfuric acid = 38.3 grams

Molar mass of H2SO4 = 98.08 g/mol

Mass of calcium hydroxide = 33.5 grams

Molar mass of Ca(OH)2 = 74.09 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

H2SO4 + Ca(OH)2 → CaSO4 + 2H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles of H2SO4

moles H2SO4 = mass H2SO4 / molar mass H2SO4

moles H2SO4 = 38.3 grams / 98.08 g/mol

moles H2SO4 = 0.390 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of Ca(OH)2

moles Ca(OH)2 = 33.5 grams / 74.09 g/mol

moles Ca(OH)2 =0.452 moles

Step 5: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol H2SO4, we need 1 mol of Ca(OH)2 to produce, 1 mol of CaSO4 and 2 mol of H2O

H2SO4 is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.390 moles).

Ca(OH)2 is in excess. There will be consumed 0.390 moles

There will remain 0.452 - 0.390 = 0.062 moles

This is 0.062 * 74.09 g/mol = 4.59 grams

Step 6: Calculate moles of calcium sulfate

For 1 mol H2SO4, we need 1 mol of Ca(OH)2 to produce, 1 mol of CaSO4 and 2 mol of H2O

For 0.390 moles of H2SO4, there will be produced 0.390 moles of CaSO4

Step 7: Calculate mass of CaSO4

Mass CaSO4 = moles CaSO4 * molar mass CaSO4

Mass CaSO4 = 0.390 moles * 136.14 g/mol

Mass of CaSO4 = 53.1 grams
