Answer : The value of work done for the system is 1144.69 J

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of NaN_3

\text{Moles of }NaN_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }NaN_3}{\text{Molar mass of }NaN_3}

Molar mass of NaN_3 = 65.01 g/mole

\text{Moles of }NaN_3=\frac{20.2g}{65.01g/mole}=0.311mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of nitrogen gas.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2NaN_3(s)\rightarrow 2Na(s)+3N_2(g)

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of NaN_3 react to give 3 mole of N_2

So, 0.311 moles of NaN_3 react to give \frac{0.311}{2}\times 3=0.466 moles of N_2

Now we have to calculate the volume of nitrogen gas.

Using ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

where,

P = Pressure of N_2 gas = 1.00 atm

V = Volume of N_2 gas = ?

n = number of moles N_2 = 0.466 mole

R = Gas constant = 0.0821L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of N_2 gas = 22^oC=273+22=295K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.00atm\times V=0.466mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 295K

V=11.3L

As initially no nitrogen was present. So,

Volume expanded = Volume of nitrogen evolved

Thus,

Expansion work = Pressure × Volume

Expansion work = 1.00 atm × 11.3 L

Expansion work = 11.3 L.atm

Conversion used : (1 L.atm = 101.3 J)

Expansion work = 11.3 × 101.3 = 1144.69 J

Therefore, the value of work done for the system is 1144.69 J

A gas occupies a volume of 30.0L, a temperature of 25°C and a pressure of 0.600atm. What will be the volume of the gas at STP?​
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

=16.49 L

Explanation:

Using the equation

P1= 0.6atm V1= 30L, T1= 25+273= 298K, P2= 1atm, V2=? T2= 273

P1V1/T1= P2V2/T2

0.6×30/298= 1×V2/273

V2=16.49L

Translation: Explain the importance of energy levels,
tigry1 [53]

Answer: Formation of a stable Duplet or Octet structure

Explanation:

Energy levels refers to the definite amount of energies that electrons can have when occupying specific orbitals.

Examples are:

Level 1 as in 1s

Level 2 as in 2s, 2p

Level 3 as in 3s 3p 3d

Level 4 as in 4s 4p 4d 4f

Level 5 as in 5s .......

Level 6 as in 6s .........

Electrons can be excited to higher energy levels by absorbing energy from the surroundings during chemical reactions and so forming chemical bonds like ionic, covalent etc.

A perfect example is Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) in Sodium chloride (NaCl)

Sodium has atomic number of 11, so energy level is 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s1

Chlorine has atomic number of 17, so energy level is 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p5

You will notice that the both Na and Cl, has electrons in the energy level 3. Then, the bond formed must be one that lead to the formation of a OCTET structure: as in Na gives off its 3s1 electron TO Cl.

Thus, Cl now becomes 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p6 - an OCTET STRUCTURE (with completely filled outershell and full energy level 3) in NACl.

So, a duplet or Octet structure is the answer
