We will assume that the only reactants are x and y and that the only product is xy.

Based on the law of mass conservation, mass is an isolated system that can neither be created nor destroyed.

Applying this concept to the chemical reaction, we will find that the total mass of the reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products,
therefore:
mass of x + mass of y = mass of xy
12.2 + mass of y = 78.9
mass of y = 78.9 - 12.2 = 66.7 grams

natali 33 [55]

Explanation:

(a)   The given data is as follows.

               mass = 1 kg = 1000 g        (as 1 kg = 1000 g)

          Molar mass of NH_{3} = 17 g/mol

           P_{1} = 2.5 bar = 2.5 \times 10^{5} Pa    (as 1 bar = 10^{5} Pa)

            P_{2} = 5 bar = 5 \times 10^{5} Pa

          T_{1} = 30^{o}C = 30 + 273 = 303 K

For adiabatic process,   PV^{\gamma} = constant = k

             \gamma = 1.33 = \frac{C_{p}}{C_{v}}        

              P_{1}V_{1}^{\gamma} = P_{2}V_{2}^{\gamma}

                (\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}})^{\gamma} = \frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}

        \frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} = (\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}})^{\frac{1}{\gamma}}

    V_{2} = (\frac{2.5 \times 10^{5}}{5 \times 10^{5}})^{\frac{1}{1.33}} \times \frac{nRT_{1}}{P_{1}}            (as PV = nRT)

                 = (\frac{2.5}{5})^{\frac{1}{1.33}} \times \frac{58.82 \times 8.314 J/mol K \times 303 K}{2.5 \times 10^{5}}

                = 0.352 m^{3}

Also,       w = \frac{P_{1}V_{1} - P_{2}V_{2}}{\gamma - 1}

                  = \frac{2.5 \times 10^{5} \times 0.5927 - 5 \times 10^{5} \times 0.352}{1.33 - 1}

                  = -84318.2 J

As 1 kJ = 1000 J. So, -84318.2 J = -84.318 kJ

Hence, the work required in kJ is -84318.2 J.

(b)    It is known that for adiabatic system Q = 0,

                           \Delta U = Q - w

                          nC_{v}dT = -w

                             dT = \frac{-w}{nC_{v}}

                                  = \frac{84318.2}{58.82 \times 1.6}

                                  = 895.93 K

We known that dT = T_{1} - T_{2}

so,                   895.93 = 303 K - T_{2}                            

                         T_{2} = (895.93 - 303)K

                                     = 592.93 K

                                     = (592.93 - 273.15)^{o}C

                                     = 319.78^{o}C

Hence, the final temperature is 319.78^{o}C.

Does anyone know the answer to this chemistry question?!? How much HCl is made when 2g of hydrogen reacts? H2+Cl2->2HCl
KatRina [158]

Answer:

146g

Explanation:

We're assuming the reaction is occurring with excess chloride. First convert hydrogen mass to moles using molar mass - you need to work with numbers for these sorts of questions:

n = m / MM

n = 2g / 1g/mol

n = 2mol

Now use your stoich ratio to find how many moles of HCL are produced. There are 2 moles of HCl produced for every 1 mole of H2 reacted so:

x HCl / 2 mol H2 = 2 HCl / 1 H2

x = 4mol HCl

Now convert this back into mass using the molar mass of HCl:

m = n x MM

m = 4mol x 36.5g/mol

m = 146g

If 33.9g NaCl are mixed into water and the total mass is 578g, what is the CHANGE in freezing if Kb= - 1.82C/M (molal)? Assume N
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

-1.82 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of NaCl (solute): 33.9 g
  • Mass of water (solvent): 578 g = 0.578 kg
  • Freezing point depression constant for water (Kb): -1.82 °C/m

Step 2: Calculate the molality of the solution

We will use the following expression.

m = mass of solute / molar mass of solute × kg of solvent

m = 33.9 g / 58.44 g/mol × 0.578 kg

m = 1.00 m

Step 3: Calculate the freezing point depression (ΔT)

The freezing point depression is a colligative property that, for a non-dissociated solute, can be calculated using the following expression:

ΔT = Kb × m

ΔT = -1.82 °C/m × 1.00 m

ΔT = -1.82 °C
