Answer:
Q = 16163.88 Joules
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial temperature, T1 = -25°C
Final temperature, T2 = 150°C
Mass = 45.5 g
Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.03 J/g°C
To find the quantity of heat required;
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
Where;
Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
m represents the mass of an object.
c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
dt represents the change in temperature.
dt = T2 - T1
dt = 150 - (-25)
dt = 150 + 25
dt = 175°C
Substituting into the formula, we have;
Q = 16163.88 Joules
Answer:
D. Na₃X
Explanation:
We have the neutral compound Ba₃(X)₂. <em>The total charge (zero) is equal to the sum of the charges of the ions times the number of ions in the molecule</em>.
3 × qBa + 2 × qX = 0
3 × (+2) + 2 × qX = 0
2 × qX = -6
qX = -3
If we have the cation Na⁺ and X³⁻, a neutral molecule would require 3 Na⁺ and 1 X³⁻. The resulting compound is Na₃X.
The correct answer is d) methane (
)
The other options are elements.
Answer:
Option A. FeCl3
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass of iron (Fe) = 6.25g
Mass of the compound formed = 18g
From the question, we were told that the compound formed contains chlorine. Therefore the mass of chlorine is obtained as follow
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = Mass of compound formed – Mass of iron.
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 18 – 6.25
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g
The compound therefore contains:
Iron (Fe) = 6.25g
Chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g
The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained by doing the following:
Step 1:
Divide by their molar mass
Fe = 6.25/56 = 0.112
Cl = 11.75/35.5 = 0.331
Step 2:
Divide by the smallest
Fe = 0.112/0.112 = 1
Cl = 0.331/0.112 = 3
The empirical formula for the compound is FeCl3
