Iron pyrite, FeS2, is known as Fool's Gold because it is a shiny yellow solid which is similar in appearance to gold. Iron pyrit

e is an ionic compound. Gold is a metallic element.
- Iron pyrite, FeS2, contains positive and negative ions. The positive ion is Fe2+.

Answer:

Explanation:

The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero.

In order to know the formula of the negative Sulfur ion in pyrite, we must determine its oxidation state.

Let us make the make the oxidation number of sulfur = x

Therefore, FeS₂:

+2 +2x = 0

+2 = -2x

x = -1

The formula of the negative ion is S⁻

Starting with 2.50 mol of N2 gas (assumed to be ideal) in a cylinder at 1.00 atm and 20.0C, a chemist first heats the gas at con

Answer:

a) $T_b=590.775k$

b) $W_t=1.08*10^4J$

d) $Q=3.778*10^4J$

d) $\triangle V=4.058*10^4J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Moles of N2 $n=2.50$

Atmospheric pressure $P=100atm$

Temperature $t=20 \textdegree C$

$t = 20+273$

$t = 293k$

Initial heat $Q=1.36 * 10^4 J$

a)

Generally the equation for change in temperature is mathematically given by

$\triangle T=\frac{Q}{N*C_v}$

Where

$C_v=Heat\ Capacity \approx 20.76 J/mol/K$

$T_b-T_a=\frac{1.36 * 10^4 J}{2.5*20.76 }$

$T_b-293k=297.775$

$T_b=590.775k$

b)

Generally the equation for ideal gas is mathematically given by

$PV=nRT$

For v double

$T_c=2*590.775k$

$T_c=1181.55k$

Therefore

$PV=Wbc$

$Wbc=(2.20)(8.314)(1181_590.778)$

$Wbc=10805.7J$

Total Work-done $W_t$

$W_t=Wab+Wbc$

$W_t=0+1.08*10^4$

$W_t=1.08*10^4J$

c)

Generally the equation for amount of heat added is mathematically given by

$Q=nC_p\triangle T$

$Q=2.20*2907*(1181.55-590.775)\\$

$Q=3.778*10^4J$

d)

Generally the equation for change in internal energy of the gas is mathematically given by

$\triangle V=nC_v \triangle T$

$\triangle V=2.20*20.76*(1181.55-293)k$

$\triangle V=4.058*10^4J$
