Zn + I2 ---&gt; Znl2<br> Determine the theoretical yield of the product if 2g of Zn is used
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Mass = 9.58 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Zn = 2g

Theoretical yield of ZnI₂ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Zn + I₂       →     ZnI₂

Number of moles of Zn:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 2g / 65.38 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.03 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Zn and ZnI₂.

                   Zn           :          ZnI₂

                    1             :           1

                  0.03        :         0.03

Mass of ZnI₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.03 mol × 319.22 g/mol

Mass = 9.58 g

Ideal He gas expanded at constant pressure of 3 atm until its volume was increased from 9 liters to 15 liters. During this proce
kkurt [141]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

             P = 3 atm

                = 3 atm \times \frac{1.01325 \times 10^{5} Pa}{1 atm}  

                 = 3.03975 \times 10^{5} Pa

    V_{1} = 9 L = 9 \times 10^{-3} m^{3}    (as 1 L = 0.001 m^{3}),  

        V_{2} = 15 L = 15 \times 10^{-3} m^{3}

            Heat energy = 800 J

As relation between work, pressure and change in volume is as follows.

                  W = P \times \Delta V

or,                W = P \times (V_{2} - V_{1})

Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

                  W = P \times (V_{2} - V_{1})

                      = 3.03975 \times 10^{5} Pa \times (15 \times 10^{-3} m^{3} - 9 \times 10^{-3} m^{3})

                      = 1823.85 Nm

or,                   = 1823.85 J

As internal energy of the gas \Delta E is as follows.

                     \Delta E = Q - W

                                  = 800 J - 1823.85 J

                                  = -1023.85 J

Thus, we can conclude that the internal energy change of the given gas is -1023.85 J.

The heating curve for a sample of pure ethanol shows the slope of the line for gaseous state is greater than the slope of the li
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

a. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is less than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.

Explanation:

The heating curve is a curve that represents temperature (T) in the y-axis vs. added heat (Q) in the x-axis. The slope is T/Q = 1/C, where C is the heat capacity. Then, the higher the slope, the lower the heat capacity. For a constant mass, it can also represent the specific heat capacity (c).

Heats of vaporization and fusion cannot be calculated from these sections of the heating curve.

<em>Which statement below explains that?</em>

<em>a. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is less than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.</em> YES.

<em>b. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is greater than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.</em> NO.

<em>c. The heat of vaporization of ethanol is less than the heat of fusion of ethanol.</em> NO.

<em>d. The heat of vaporization of ethanol is greater than the heat of fusion of ethanol.</em> NO.
