Molar mass of carbon monoxide (CO) = 12+16 = 28 g/mol

Concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) = 35 mg/m^{3} (given)

Since, 1 mg = 10^{-3} g

So, the concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) = 35\times 10^{-3} g/m^{3}

a. ppmv stands for parts per million by volume is defined as the volume of a substance dissolved in one million parts per volume of the liquid.

The formula used for determining the volume is:

PV = nRT

V= \frac{nRT}{P}  -(1)

where,

V is volume, n is number of moles, R is universal gas constant, T is temperature and P is pressure.

For determining number of moles, n:

n = \frac{given weight}{Molar mass}

n = \frac{35\times 10^{-3} g}{28 g/mol} = 1.25\times 10^{-3} mole

Temperature, T = 25^{o}C = 25+273.15K = 298.15 K

Pressure, P = 1 atm =101325 Pa

Substituting the values in formula (1):

V= \frac{1.25\times 10^{-3} mole\times 8.314 Pa m^{3}/K mol\times 298.15 K}{101325Pa}

V = 3.06\times 10^{-5} m^{^{3}}

Now converting m^{^{3}} to ppmv as:

V = 3.06\times 10^{-5} \frac{m^{^{3}} CO}{m^{^{3}} air}\times 10^{6}

V = 30.6 ppm_v

b. Percent by volume is calculated as:

Volume percent = \frac{Volume of CO}{Volume of CO+Volume of air}\times 100

Volume percent = \frac{3.06\times 10^{-5} m^{3}}{3.06\times 10^{-5} m^{3}+ 1 m^{3}}\times 100

Volume percent = 3.06\times 10^{-3}%.

If irons temperature goes from 50c to 75c in a 20g sample, how many joules of heat were used?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Option D. 230 J

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the temperature change of the iron. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 50 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 75 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 75 – 50

ΔT = 25 °C

Thus, the temperature change of the iron is 25 °C.

Finally, we shall determine the amount of heat energy used. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) = 20 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 25 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.46 J/gºC

Heat (Q) =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 20 × 0.46 × 25

Q = 230 J

Thus, the amount of heat used was 230 J

In an ionic compound, the size of the ions affects the internuclear distance (the distance between the centers of adjacent ions)
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Li2S> Na2S> K2S> CsS

Explanation:

The lattice energy of ionic species depends on the relative sizes of ions in the ionic compounds. As the size of ions increases, the lattice energy decreases and vice versa.

When the size of the anions are the same, the lattice energy now depends on the relative sizes of the cations. Therefore, since all the compounds are sulphides and the order of magnitude of ionic sizes is: Li^+ < Na^+ < K^+ < Cs^+.

Therefore, the order of decrease in lattice energy is; Li2S> Na2S> K2S> CsS

[15 Points, Stoichiometry and Gases]
KiRa [710]

The reaction is

CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O (l) -----> Ca(OH)₂ (s) + C₂H₂ (g) ​

As we have data of gas ethyne (or acetylene), C₂H₂

We can calculate the moles of acetylene and from this we can estimate the mass of calcium carbide taken

the moles of acetylene will be calculated using ideal gas equation

PV =nRT

R = gas constant = 0.0821 Latm/molK

T = 385 K

V = volume = 550 L

P = Pressure = 1.25 atm

n = moles = ?

n = PV /RT = 1.25 X 550 / 0.0821 X 385 = 21.75 mol

As per balanced equation these moles of acetylene will be obtained from same moles of calcium carbide

moles of calcium carbide = 21.75mol

molar mass of CaC₂ = 40 + 24 = 64

mass of CaC₂ = moles X molar mass = 21.75 X 64 = 1392g
