Answer: Different gases effuse at different rates because at a given temperature, gas particles with smaller masses move faster.

Explanation: The motion of particles in a gas depends on the kinetic energy of the gas particles which further depend on the temperature of the gas. Thus, the rate of gas given by Graham's law can only be stated when the two gases are at fixed temperature.

Graham's Law: This law states that the rate of effusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its mass.

Mathematically,

\frac{(Rate)_1}{(Rate)_2}=\sqrt{\frac{M_2}{M_1}}

From the above relation, the gas particle with smaller mass will effuse faster at a given temperature.

. an ionic compound is composed of 34.95 g of iron and 15.05 g of oxygen. find the empirical formula of this compound.
Contact [7]

Empirical formula of ionic compound is FeO. In which the composition of atoms is 1 : 1.

Empirical formula of an ionic compound is defined as the formula which gives whole number ratio of atoms of various elements present in molecule of compund.

mass of iron in compound = 34.95 g

molar mass of iron = 55.8 g

mass of oxygen in compound = 15.05 g

molar mass of oxygen = 32 g

number of moles of iron present in the compound are ratio of mass of iron in compound/ molar mass of iron

number of moles of iron in compound= 34.95 / 55.8 = 0.6263 ~ 1

number of moles oxygen in compound= 15.05/ 32 = 0.473 ~ 0.5

the ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to number of iron atoms present in one formula unit of iron compund is 2×0.5 / 1 = 1 : 1

Hence , the required empirical formula of iron compound is FeO.

The production of ammonia (NH3) under standard conditions at 25°C is represented by the following thermochemical equation. N2(g)
asambeis [7]

Answer:

44,901 kilo Joule heat is released when 1.663\times 10^4 g grams of ammonia is produced.

Explanation:

Moles of ammonia  gas produced :

\frac{1.663\times 10^4 g}{17 g/mol}=978.235 mol

According to reaction, when 2 moles of ammonia are produced 9.18 kilo joules of energy is also released.

So, When 978.235 moles of ammonia gas is produced the energy released will be:

\frac{-91.8 kJ}{2}\times 978.235 mol=-44,900.98 kJ\approx -44,901 kJ

(negative sign indicates that energy is released as heat)

44,901 kilo Joule heat is released when 1.663\times 10^4 g grams of ammonia is produced.
