Technically, the answer is iron. Oxygen has a melting point way below zero (-219 degrees celsius), ice becomes water AT room temperature and bromine is already a liquid at room temperature. So, iron has a melting point greater than room temperature due to the fact that metals are made up of giant structures of atoms in a regular arrangement, and there are strong forces of electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and negative electrons, meaning that a lot of heat energy is required to break the bonds, i.e. a very high melting point, approx. 1500 degrees celsius. Hope this helps.

The correct options are as follows:
1. A.
A synthesis reaction is a type of reaction in which two or more reactants combine together to form only one product. Synthesis reaction always release energy in form of light and heat, therefore, they are usually exothermic reactions. In the option given in A, nitrogen and nitrogen combine together to form ammonia; this is a synthesis reaction.
2. D
A radioactive half life refers to the amount of time it will take for half of an original radioactive isotope to decay.
In the question given above, the half life of the element is 1000. Thus, in 1000 years only half of the original amount will remain. In another 1000 years only 1/4 of the original amount will remain and in another 1000 years only 1/8 of the original amount will remain. Therefore, it will take 3 half lives before 1/8 of the original sample remain.<span />

What is the mass of the solid NH4Cl formed when 75.5 g of NH3 is mixed with an equal mass of HCl? What is the volume of the gas

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer : The volume of the gas remaining is 56.5 liters.

The gas is hydrochloric acid and the formula of the gas is HCl.

The mass of $NH_4Cl$ produced is, 110.7 grams.

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

$NH_3+HCl\rightarrow NH_4Cl$

First we have to calculate the moles of $NH_3$ and HCl

$\text{Moles of }NH_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }NH_3}{\text{Molar mass of }NH_3}$

Molar mass of NH_3 = 17 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }NH_3=\frac{75.5g}{17g/mole}=4.44mole$

and,

$\text{Moles of }HCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }HCl}{\text{Molar mass of }HCl}$

Molar mass of HCl = 36.5 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }HCl=\frac{75.5g}{36.5g/mole}=2.07mole$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of HCl react with 1 mole of $NH_3$

So, 2.07 mole of HCl react with 2.07 mole of $NH_3$

From this we conclude that, $NH_3$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and HCl is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

The remaining moles of HCl gas = 4.44 - 2.07 = 2.37 moles

Now we have to calculate the volume of the gas remaining.

Using ideal gas equation :

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of gas = 752 mmHg = 0.989 atm (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles of gas = 2.37 moles

R = Gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of gas = $14.0^oC=273+14.0=287K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.989atm\times V=2.37mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 287K$

V = 56.5 L

Now we have to calculate the moles of $NH_4Cl$

As, 1 mole of HCl react with 1 mole of $NH_4Cl$

So, 2.07 mole of HCl react with 2.07 mole of $NH_4Cl$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $NH_4Cl$

$\text{ Mass of }NH_4Cl=\text{ Moles of }NH_4Cl\times \text{ Molar mass of }NH_4Cl$

Molar mass of $NH_4Cl$ = 53.5 g/mole

$\text{ Mass of }NH_4Cl=(2.07moles)\times (53.5g/mole)=110.7g$

Thus, the volume of the gas remaining is 56.5 liters.

The gas is hydrochloric acid and the formula of the gas is HCl.

The mass of $NH_4Cl$ produced is, 110.7 grams.

The gauge pressure inside a vessel is ‐40kPa, at an elevation of 5000m. a) What is the absolute pressure? b) At this elevation,

hoa [83]

Answer:

a) Pabs = 48960 KPa

b) T = 433.332 °C

Explanation:

Pabs = Pgauge + d*g* h

∴ d = 1000 Kg/m³

∴ g = 9.8 m/s²

∴ h = 5000 m

∴ P gauge = - 40 KPa * ( 1000 Pa / KPa ) = - 40000 Pa; Pa≡Kg/m*s²

⇒ Pabs = - 40000 Kg/ms² + ( 1000 Kg/m³ * 9.8 m/s² * 5000 m )

⇒ Pabs = 48960000 Pa = 48960 KPa

a) at that height and pressure, we find the temperature at which the water boils by means of an almost-exponential graph which has the following equation:

P(T) = 0.61094 exp ( 17.625*T / ( T + 243.04 ))......P (KPa) ∧ T (°C)....from literature

∴ P = 48960 KPa

⇒ ( 48960 KPa / 0.61094 ) = exp ( 17.625T / (T+ 243.04))

⇒ 80138.803 = exp ( 17.625T / ( T + 243.04))

⇒ Ln ( 80138.803) = 17.625T / ( T + 243.04))

⇒ 11.292 * ( T + 243.04 ) = 17.625T

⇒ 11.292T + 2744.289 = 17.625T

⇒ 2744.289 = 17.625T - 11.292T

⇒ 2744.289 = 6.333T

⇒ T = 433.332 °C
