C5H12, pentane, is a liquid at room temperature.

Chemistry
1 answer:
zloy xaker [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C)We cannot be sure unless we find out its boiling point.

Explanation:

I will like to clearly state that simply comparing two compounds will not tell us exactly which one will be a liquid, solid or gas at room temperature.

If I want to determine whether an unknown substance will be a liquid at room temperature, I will have to measure its boiling point. If the boiling point is above room temperature, and the melting point is below room temperature, it’s a liquid. If the boiling point of the unknown substance is below room temperature, it is a gas.

This confirms that we cannot conclude on the state of matter in which a compound exists unless we know something about its boiling point, not by inspecting the properties of neighbouring compounds in the same homologous series

Which statement describes an eletron
Vitek1552 [10]
An electron carries a negative power to the atom. in each atom, the amount of protons and electrons are usually evened out so the atom is stable. the electrons of an atom are also found on the outside ring of an atom, unlike protons and neutrons, which are inside the atom. glad to help! :)

Calculate the amount of heat deposited on the skin of a person burned by 1.00g of steam at 100.0C. Skin temperature is 37C. ΔHva
seraphim [82]

The amount of heat deposited on the skin is 2.26 kJ.

<h3>What is the amount of heat given off by 1.0 g of steam?</h3>

The amount of heat given off by steam is determined using the formula below:

Quantity of heat = mass * latent heat of vaporization.

Moles of steam = 1.0/18

Heat = 1.0/18 * 40.7

Heat deposited = 2.26 kJ

In conclusion, the quantity of heat is determined from the latent heat of vaporization and the moles of steam.

1 lb of CO2 occupies 0.6 ft^3 at a pressure of 200 psi. Determine the temperature of the system.
Anarel [89]

<u>Answer:</u> The temperature of the system is 273 K

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}  

Given mass of carbon dioxide = 1 lb = 453.6 g   (Conversion factor: 1 lb = 453.6 g)

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of carbon dioxide}=\frac{453.6g}{44g/mol}=10.31mol

To calculate the temperature of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of carbon dioxide = 200 psia = 13.6 atm   (Conversion factor:  1 psia = 0.068 atm)

V = Volume of carbon dioxide = 0.6ft^3=16.992L    (Conversion factor:  1ft^3=28.32L )

n = number of moles of carbon dioxide = 10.31 mol

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the system = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

13.6atm\times 16.992L=10.31mol\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times T\\\\T=273K

Hence, the temperature of the system is 273 K
