Energy, in a form of gamma rays, is <span>released when an electron and its antiparticle (positron) annihilate each other. </span>

Solution:

the minimum total energy released when an electron and its antiparticle (positron) annihilate each other is:-

2 mc^2.    [Mass of electron m and c is the velocity of light.]  

m=1*10^(-30) kg., c =3*10^ 8 m/s  

energy released = 2 *9* 10 ^(-14) j  

1 j =6*10^(18) eV.  

Energy released = 6*18*10^4 eV

                               =104*10^4 eV  

                                 =1.04 MeV.

Using the data below, calculate the enthalpy for the combustion of C to CO
Leona [35]

Answer:

ΔH3 = -110.5 kJ.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, by using the Hess Law, we can manipulate the given equation to obtain the combustion of C to CO as shown below:

C(s) + 1/2O2(g) --> CO(g)

Thus, by letting the first reaction to be unchanged:

C(s) + O2(g)--> CO2 (g) ; ΔH1 = -393.5 kJ

And the second one inverted:

CO2(g) --> CO(g) + 1/2O2(g) ; ΔH2= 283.0kJ

If we add them, we obtain:

C(s) + O2(g) + CO2(g) --> CO(g) + CO2 (g) + 1/2O2(g)

Whereas CO2 can be cancelled out and O2 subtracted:

C(s) + 1/2O2(g)  --> CO(g)

Therefore, the required enthalpy of reaction is:

ΔH3 = -393.5 kJ + 283.0kJ

ΔH3 = -110.5 kJ

Best regards!

Let's assume you were given 2.0 g benzil, 2.2 g dibenzyl ketone, 50 mL 95% ethanol and 0.3 g potassium hydroxide to synthesize t
almond37 [142]

Answer:

the % yield is 82%

Explanation:

Given the data in the question,

we know that;

Molar mass of benzil is 210.23 g·mol−1

Molar mass of dibenzyl ketone is 210.27 g·mol−1

Molar mass of tetraphenylcyclopentadienone is 384.5 g·mol−1

Now,

2.0 g benzil = 2 g / 210.23 g·mol−1 = 0.0095 mole

2.2 g dibenzyl ketone = 2.2 / 210.27 = 0.0105 mole

3.0 g of tetraphenylcyclopentadienone = 3 / 384.5  = 0.0078 mole

Now, the limiting reagent is benzil. 0.0095 mole can reacts wiyh 0.0095 mole of dibenzyl ketone

percentage yield = ( 0.0078 mole / 0.0095 mole ) × 100%

= 0.82 × 100%

= 82%

Therefore, the % yield is 82%
