Which state of matter consists of particles that can be partially compressed? Gas Liquid Plasma Solid

Chemistry
1 answer:
son4ous [18]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In liquid state, particles do have kinetic energy that helps in partially overcoming the intermolecular forces between the molecules. But still the particles are close together and they are able to slide past each other.

So, when we apply pressure on a liquid then its molecules partially gets compressed.

On the other hand, molecules of a solid are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. Hence, they have definite shape and volume. As a result, solids do not get compressed.

In gases and plasma state of matter, molecules are gar away from each other. So, they are able to get completely compressed when a pressure is applied.

Thus, we can conclude that liquid is the state of matter which consists of particles that can be partially compressed.

4). One mole of monoclinic sulfur at 25C was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter whose heat capacity (C) was 1620 J/K. T
andre [41]

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy change of the reaction is -243 J/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

The heat released by the reaction is absorbed by the calorimeter and the solution.

The chemical equation used to calculate the heat released follows:

q=c\times \Delta T

where,

c = heat capacity of calorimeter = 1620 J/K

\Delta T = change in temperature = 0.150^oC=0.150K   (Change remains same)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

q=1620J/K\times 0.15K=243J

<u>Sign convention of heat:</u>

When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.

For the given chemical reaction:

S\text{ (monoclinic)}\rightarrow S\text{ (orthorhombic)}

We are given:

Moles of monoclinic sulfur = 1 mole

  • To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{q}{n}

where,  

q = amount of heat released = -243 J

n = number of moles = 1 mole

\Delta H_{rxn} = enthalpy change of the reaction

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{-243J}{1mol}=-243J/mol

Hence, the enthalpy change of the reaction is -243 J/mol

The pOH of a solution is 10.75. What is the concentration of OH– ions in the solution?. A. –1.031 M. B. 1.778 x 10–11 M. C. 5.62
zloy xaker [14]
We are given the pOH of the solution of 10.75. pOH is the property of the solution that is related to the OH ion concentration of the solution. THe formula to be followed is pOH = -log (OH); OH- = 10^-pOH. In this case, OH-  = 10^-10.75 equal to B. 1.778 x 10^-11 M

what is an empirical formulaWhat is the percent composition by mass of nitrogen in (NH4)2CO3 (gram-formula mass = 96.0 g/mol)?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Percentage composition = 14.583%

Explanation:

In chemistry, the emprical formular of a compound is the simplest formular a compound can have. It shows the simplest ratio in which the elements are combined in the compound.

Percentage composition by mass of Nitrogen

Nitrogen = 14g/mol

In one mole of the compound;

Mass of Nitrogen = 1 mol * 14g/mol = 14g

Mass of compound = 1 mol * 96.0 g/mol = 96

Percentage composition of Nitrogen = (Mass of Nitrogen /  Mass of compound) * 100

percentage composition = 14/96   * 100

Percentage composition = 0.14583 * 100

Percentage composition = 14.583%

3. Which one is part of the kinetic molecular theory? Yes = part of KMT, No = not part
lidiya [134]

Explanation:

a. Average kinetic energy is directly proportional to absolute Kelvin temperature of a gas.

Yes

b. There are no attractive forces and repulsive forces between gas molecules.

Yes

C. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed by ordinary chemical reactions.

No

d. The volume occupied by all of the gas molecules in a container is negligible compared to  the volume of the container

Yes

The kinetic molecular theory is one of such theories used to explain the forces between molecules and the energy they posses.

According to the theory;

  • The temperature of gas is proportional to the average kinetic energy.
  • Molecules are independent of one another and the force of attraction and repulsion between them is negligible.
  • volume occupied by gases is negligible compared to the volume of the container.

Law of conservation of matter states that "atoms are neither created nor destroyed by ordinary chemical reactions".
