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

arlik [135]

Answer:

HgO (empirical formula)

Explanation:

4.08 - 3.78 = 0.3g (oxygen)

(\frac{4.08}{201})   \:  \:  \:  (\frac{0.3}{16} )

0.02 : 0.02

0.02/0.02 : 0.02/0.02

1 : 1 (ratio)

HgO ( empirical formula)

2HgO ----> 2Hg + O2 ( your equation correct)

What takes longer to melt a small quantity or a large quantity?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

A large quantity

Explanation:

A large quantity will take much longer to melt compared to a small quantity of the same matter.

The rate of melt of a substance is particularly a function of the nature of the substance and the amount of energy supplied to it.

If we assume that we are dealing with different quantities of the same substance, then the one that has more mass will melt faster because less energy would be required to change its state.

A large quantity of matter will take more time to melt.
