Carbon tetrachloride, CCl4, was once used as a dry cleaning solvent, but is no longer used because it is carcinogenic. At 55.8°C

, the vapor pressure of CCl4 is 52.7 kPa, and its enthalpy of vaporization is 29.82 kJ/mol. Use this information to estimate the normal boiling point (in °C) for CCl4.

Use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation... 

<span>Let T1 be the normal boiling point, which will occur at standard pressure (P1), which is 101.3 kPa (aka 760 torr or 1.00 atm). You know the vapour pressure (P2) at a different temperature (T2). And you are given the enthalpy of vaporization. Therefore, we can use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation.

</span>ln(P_1/P_2) = \frac{-\delta H_{vap}}{R}  \times [\frac{1}{T_1} - \frac{1}{T_2}]<span>

</span><span>ln(101.3 kPa / 52.7 kPa) = (-29.82 kJ/mol / 8.314x10^{-3} kJ/molK) (1/T - 1/329 K) 
</span>
------ some algebra goes here ----- 

<span>T = 349.99K ...... or ...... 76.8C </span>

What is the correct iupac name of CH3-CH2-CH2CHO ?
kow [346]

the correct IUPAC name of the compound is 1-Butanal.

<h3>What are IUPAC names?</h3>

It is a system of naming organic compounds based on the longest carbon-to-carbon single bonds. It does not matter whether these longest chains are continuous or in a ring.

Thus, when the compound with the chemical formula, CH3-CH2-CH2CHO is considered. The longest carbon-to-carbon chain is 4. The 1st carbon carries a functional group known as an aldehyde.

Aldehydes are equipped with the carbonyl group and have the general formula R−CH=O. They are also sometimes referred to as formyl.

Aldehydes are named after their parent alkane chains with a slight modification. The 'e' is replaced with 'al'

The aldehyde in this case has four carbons. This means that the parent alkane is Butane. Therefore, the name of the compound will be 1-Butanal.

To what volume would you need to dilute 200 mL of a 5.85M solution of Ca(OH)2 to make it a 1.95M solution?
Blizzard [7]

Answer: 600 mL

Explanation:

Given that;

M₁ = 5.85 m

M₂ = 1.95 m

V₁ = 200 mL

V₂ = ?

Now from the dilution law;

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

so we substitute

5.85 × 200 = 1.95 × V₂

1170 = 1.95V₂

V₂ = 1170 / 1.95

V₂ = 600 mL

Therefore final volume is 600 mL

Which subatomic particle gives off visible light when it drops back down to a lower energy state?
icang [17]

Answer:

Option C = electron

Explanation:

Electrons are responsible for the production of colored light.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

How electrons produce the colored light:

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum.

Other process may involve,

Fluorescence:

In fluorescence the energy is absorbed by the electron having shorter wavelength and high energy usually of U.V region. The process of absorbing the light occur in a very short period of time i.e. 10 ∧-15 sec. During the fluorescence the spin of electron not changed.

The electron is then de-excited by emitting the light in visible and IR region. This process of de-excitation occur in a time period of 10∧-9 sec.

Phosphorescence:

In phosphorescence the electron also goes to the excitation to the higher level by absorbing the U.V radiations. In case of Phosphorescence the transition back to the lower energy level occur very slowly and the spin pf electron also change.
