Answer:
That means that if you are calculating entropy change, you must multiply the enthalpy change value by 1000. So if, say, you have an enthalpy change of -92.2 kJ mol-1, the value you must put into the equation is -92200 J mol-1
Answer:
c) An element is made up of all the same type of atom
Explanation:
Atoms are the smallest unit of an element that consists of protons, electrons and neutrons in its structure. An element is the smallest part of a chemical substance that cannot be disintegrated i.e. it cannot be broken down further.
Atoms and elements are different in many ways but they are connected in the sense that an element contains only one type of atoms. For example, aluminum element is made up of only aluminum atoms. Different atoms form a molecule but same atoms form an element.
Answer: (e) The pressure in the container increases but does not double.
Explanation:
To solve this, we need to first remember our gas law, Boyle's law states that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship. That is, If volume increases, then pressure decreases and vice versa, when temperature is held constant. Therefore, increasing the volume in this case does not double the pressure owning to out gas law, but an increase in pressure would be noticed if temperature is constant
Answer:
0.74 grams of methane
Explanation:
The balanced equation of the combustion reaction of methane with oxygen is:
it is clear that 1 mol of CH₄ reacts with 2 mol of O₂.
firstly, we need to calculate the number of moles of both
for CH₄:
number of moles = mass / molar mass = (3.00 g) / (16.00 g/mol) = 0.1875 mol.
for O₂:
number of moles = mass / molar mass = (9.00 g) / (32.00 g/mol) = 0.2812 mol.
- it is clear that O₂ is the limiting reactant and methane will leftover.
using cross multiplication
1 mol of CH₄ needs → 2 mol of O₂
??? mol of CH₄ needs → 0.2812 mol of O₂
∴ the number of mol of CH₄ needed = (0.2812 * 1) / 2 = 0.1406 mol
so 0.14 mol will react and the remaining CH₄
mol of CH₄ left over = 0.1875 -0.1406 = 0.0469 mol
now we convert moles into grams
mass of CH₄ left over = no. of mol of CH₄ left over * molar mass
= 0.0469 mol * 16 g/mol = 0.7504 g
So, the right choice is 0.74 grams of methane
