The answer to this question would be: Because the increase of temperature will increase volume.

Using PV=nRT formula we can see that temperature increase will cause an increase in volume. Overheating will cause the volume increase, then increasing the volume. If the percent value used is based on the volume, it will seem that the water is increased. But if the percent is using mass, there will be no increases.
That is why sometimes scientists using molality in a reaction with high temperature changes.

Which statements accurately describe Dmitri Mendeleev’s contributions to the development of the periodic table? Check all that a
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

  • <em><u>Mendeleev produced the first orderly arrangement of known elements.</u></em>

  • <em><u>Mendeleev used patterns to predict undiscovered elements.</u></em>

Explanation:

  • <u>Mendeleev produced the first orderly arrangement of known elements and used patterns to predict the undiscovered elements.</u>

        Those two statments are true.

For the time being there were some 62 known elements. Before Medeleev some schemes to order part of the elements were proposed, but Medeleev showed the relationship between the atomic mass and the properties of the elements (supports second choice). This arrangement is known as the periodic table.

More importantly, Mendeleev predicted correctly the existance and properties of unknown elements, which is his major contribution: he left blanket spaces which where gradually filled when new elements where discovered (this supports the fourth choice).

The first modern chemistry book was written by Antoine Lavoisier (this discards first option).

Mendeleev ordered the elements by increasing mass number (this discards third choice), which was corrected later by the scientist Henry Moseley, who ordered the elements by increasing atomic number (number of protons).

Isotopes were not known by Mendeleev times, so this discards the last option.

How long would it take for 1.50 mol of water at 100.0 ∘c to be converted completely into steam if heat were added at a constant
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
To determine the time it takes to completely vaporize the given amount of water, we first determine the total heat that is being absorbed from the process. To do this, we need information on the latent heat of vaporization of water. This heat is being absorbed by the process of phase change without any change in the temperature of the system. For water, it is equal to 40.8 kJ / mol.

Total heat = 40.8 kJ / mol ( 1.50 mol ) = 61.2 kJ of heat is to be absorbed

Given the constant rate of 19.0 J/s supply of energy to the system, we determine the time as follows:

Time = 61.2 kJ ( 1000 J / 1 kJ ) / 19.0 J/s = 3221.05 s
