"Conservation of energy" refers to the fact that _____.

Chemistry

Agata [3.3K]4 years ago
8 0

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, it is known that energy can neither be created nor it can be destroyed.

But energy can be changed from one form to another.

Whereas entropy is the degree of randomness present within the molecules of a substance or object.

For example, gas molecules are able to move rapidly so, they have more entropy as compared to solid and liquid substances.

According to second law of thermodynamics, entropy of the system is always increasing.

Thus, we can conclude that "Conservation of energy" refers to the fact that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.

How many moles of gas are there in a 50. 0 l container at 22. 0 °c and 825 torr?
andre [41]

2.2311 moles of gas are there in a 50. 0 l container at 22. 0 °c and 825 torrs.

<h3>What is an ideal gas?</h3>

An Ideal gas is a hypothetical gas whose molecules occupy negligible space and have no interactions, and which consequently obeys the gas laws exactly.

Assuming the gas is ideal, we can solve this problem by using the following equation:

PV = nRT

Where:

P = 825 torr ⇒ 825 / 760 = 1.08 atm

V = 50 L

n = ?

R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹

T = 22 °C ⇒ 22 + 273.16 = 295.16 K

We input the data:

1.08 atm x 50 L = n x 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ x 295.16 K

And solve for n:

24.20312

n = 2.2311 mol

Hence, 2.2311 moles of gas are there in a 50. 0 L container at 22. 0 °c and 825 torrs.

A 1.543 gram sample containing sulfate ion was treated with barium chloride reagent, and 0.2243 grams of barium sulfate was isol
Montano1993 [528]
Chemical reaction: SO₄²⁻ + Ba²⁺ → BaSO₄.
m(sample) = 1,543 g.
m(BaSO₄) = 0,2243 g.
n(BaSO₄) = m(BaSO₄) ÷ M(BaSO₄).
n(BaSO₄) = 0,2243 g ÷ 233,4 g/mol. 
n(BaSO₄) = 0,00096 mol.
n(BaSO₄) = n(SO₄²⁻).
ω(SO₄²⁻) = m(SO₄²⁻) ÷ m(sample).
ω(SO₄²⁻) = 0,00096 mol · 96 g/mol ÷ 1,543 g.
ω(SO₄²⁻) = 0,059 = 5,9%.

For the chemical reaction , I identify the reactant and the products .
svetlana [45]

The reactant is Mercury (II) Oxide while the products are Mercury and Oxygen separately.

This is because the reactants are typically always on the left side of the yields symbol. In this decomposition reaction, it would still be the same as at the end of the reaction, there were to products produced: Mercury and Oxygen.

Products tend to always be on the right side of the yields symbol, they're what comes out of a reaction no matter what type.

Hope this helps!
