For the closed system below: Cu(s) + 2Ag+(aq) 2Ag(s) + Cu2+(aq) How would you know if the system is at equilibrium?

1 answer:

5 0

For the chemical reactiom to be at equilibrium:
1- The rate of forward reaction must be equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.
2- The mass of EACH element must be equal before and after the reaction (no NET change in mass), otherwise the equilibrium will shift.

Important note: you need to check the mass of each element before and after the reaction (i.e, reactants side and products side) and the not the mass of the system as a whole. This is because the mass of the whole system will be preserved whether the system is at equilibrium or not (this is the fundamental law of mass conservation)

Suppose a substance has a heat of fusion equal to 45 calg and a specific heat of 0.75

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The substance will be in liquid state at a temperature of 97.3 °C

Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below :

Suppose a substance has a heat of fusion equal to 45 cal/g and a specific heat of 0.75 cal/g°C in the liquid state. If 5.0 kcal of heat are applied to a 50 g sample of the substance at a temperature of 24°C, what will its new temperate be? What state will the sample be in? (melting point of the substance = 27°C; specific heat of the solid =0.48 cal/g°C; boiling point of the substance = 700°C)

Explanation:

1.a) Heat energy required to raise the temperature of the substance to its melting point, H = mcΔT

Mass of solid sample = 50 g; specific heat of solid = 0.75 cal/g; ΔT = 27 - 24 = 3 °C

H = 50 × 0.75 × 3 = 112.5 calories

b) Heat energy required to convert the solid to liquid at its melting point at 27°C, H = m×l, where l = 45 cal/g

H = 50 × 45 = 2250 cal

c) Total energy used so far = 112.5 cal + 2250 cal = 2362.5 calories.

Amount of energy left = 5000 - 2362.5 = 2637.5 cal

The remaining energy is used to heat the liquid

H = mcΔT

Where specific heat of the liquid, c = 0.75 cal/g/°C, H = 2637.5 cal, ΔT = temperature change

2637.5 = 50 × 0.75 x ΔT

ΔT = 2637.5 / ( 50*0.75)

ΔT = 70.3 °C

Final temperature of sample = (70.3 + 27) °C = 97.3 °C

The substance will be in liquid state at a temperature of 97.3 °C

<u> There are more total ions in 2.2 moles of </u> $MgCl_2$

Ion, any atom or group of atoms that bears one or more positive or negative electrical charges. Positively charged ions are called cations; negatively charged ions, anions.

Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the formerly bonded atoms.

Examples of these processes include the reaction of a sodium atom with a chlorine atom to form a sodium cation and a chloride anion; the addition of a hydrogen cation to an ammonia molecule to form an ammonium cation; and the dissociation of a water molecule to form a hydrogen cation and a hydroxide anion.

A metal X from two oxide A and B .3.oogm of A and B contain 0.72 and 1.16g of oxygen respectively.calculate the maases of metal

devlian [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to determine the mass of metal X. We can do that by interpreting the first and second statement mathematically.

Metal X can form 2 oxides (A and B).

A + B = 3g

The mass of oxygen in A is 0.72g and the mass of oxygen in B is 1.16g.

The mass of metal X in the two oxides will be the same because it's the same metal.

Thus, we represent the mass of the metal in the two oxides as 2X.

2X + 0.72 + 1.16 = 3

2X + 1.88 = 3

2X = 3 - 1.88

2X = 1.12

X = 0.56

<u>Thus, 0.56 g of the metal combines with 0.72g of oxygen in A and 1.16 g of oxygen in B.</u>

Thus, mass of metal (X) in 1g of oxygen in A is

0.56g ⇒ 0.72g

X ⇒ 1

X = 1 × 0.56/0.72

X = 0.78 g

Hence, 0.78g of the metal will combine with 1g of oxygen for A

Also, mass of metal (X) in 1g of oxygen in B is

0.56g ⇒ 1.16g

X ⇒ 1g

X = 1×0.56/1.16

X = 0.48 g

Thus, 0.48g of the metal will combine with 1g of oxygen for B
