<span>The rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular weight of the species. Now there will be differences among isotopomers but neglecting these and taking the avg mol wt of N2 = 28 and Xe = 132; Rate(N2)/Rate(Xe) = sqrt (132/28) = 2.17</span>

Ne (g) effuses at a rate that is \boxed{{\text{2}}{\text{.6}}} times that of Xe (g) under the same conditions.

Further Explanation:

Graham’s law of effusion:

Effusion is the process by which molecules of gas travel through a small hole from high pressure to the low pressure. According to Graham’s law, the effusion rate of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of gas.

The expression for Graham’s law is as follows:

\boxed{{\text{R}}\propto\dfrac{1}{{\sqrt {{\mu }} }}}

Here,

R is the rate of effusion of gas.

{{\mu }} is the molar mass of gas.

Higher the molar mass of the gas, smaller will be the rate of effusion and vice-versa.

The rate of effusion of Ne is expressed as follows:

{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Ne}}}} \propto \dfrac{1}{{\sqrt {{{{\mu }}_{{\text{Ne}}}}} }}

                                                 ......(1)

Here,

{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Ne}}}} is the rate of effusion of Ne.

{{{\mu }}_{{\text{Ne}}}} is the molar mass of Ne.

The rate of effusion of Xe is expressed as follows:

{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Xe}}}}\propto\dfrac{1}{{\sqrt{{{{\mu }}_{{\text{Xe}}}}}}}

                                     ......(2)

Here,

{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Xe}}}} is the rate of effusion of Xe.

{{{\mu }}_{{\text{Xe}}}} is the molar mass of Xe.

On dividing equation (1) by equation (2),

\dfrac{{{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Ne}}}}}}{{{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Xe}}}}}}=\sqrt {\dfrac{{{{{\mu }}_{{\text{Xe}}}}}}{{{{{\mu }}_{{\text{Ne}}}}}}}     ......(3)

Rearrange equation (3) to calculate  {{\text{R}}_{{\text{Ne}}}}.

{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Ne}}}}=\left( {\sqrt {\dfrac{{{{{\mu }}_{{\text{Xe}}}}}}{{{{{\mu }}_{{\text{Ne}}}}}}} } \right){{\text{R}}_{{\text{Xe}}}}     ......(4)

The molar mass of Ne is 20.17 g/mol.

The molar mass of Xe is 131.29 g/mol.

Substitute these values in equation (4).

\begin{aligned}{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Ne}}}}&= \left({\sqrt {\frac{{{\text{131}}{\text{.29}}}}{{{\text{20}}{\text{.17}}}}} } \right){{\text{R}}_{{\text{Xe}}}}\\&= \left( {\sqrt {6.50917} } \right){{\text{R}}_{{\text{Xe}}}}\\&= 2.5513{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Xe}}}}\\&\approx 2.6{{\text{R}}_{{\text{Xe}}}}\\\end{aligned}

Therefore the rate of effusion of Ne is 2.6 times the rate of effusion of Xe.

Which reactant is unlikely to produce the indicated product upon strong heating?
Ilya [14]

2-Methyl-4-oxo-pentanoic acid  is unlikely to produce 2-Methyl-3-butanone upon strong heating.

Upon heating, the β ketoacid becomes unstable and decarboxylates, leading to the formation of the methyl ketone.

A carboxylic acid is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group (C(=O)OH) attached to an R-group. The general formula of a carboxylic acid is R−COOH or R−CO2H, with R referring to the alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or other group.

Carboxylic acids occur widely. Important examples include the amino acids and fatty acids. Deprotonation of a carboxylic acid gives a carboxylate anion.

Full question :

Q.  Which reactant is unlikely to produce the indicated product upon strong heating?

  • A) 2,2-Dimethylpropanedioic acid 2-methylpropanoic acid
  • B) 2-Ethylpropanedioic acid Butanoic acid
  • C) 2-Methyl-3-oxo-pentanoic acid 3-Pentanone
  • D) 2-Methyl-4-oxo-pentanoic acid 2-Methyl-3-butanone
  • E) 4-Methyl-3-oxo-heptanoic acid 3-Methyl-2-hexanone

Hence, option (D) is correct.

Misha Larkins [42]
Your answer would be,
Molarity = moles of solute/volume of solution we needed, 29.22(g)(mol) of NaCI

= 29.22(g)/58.44(g)(mol^-1)(1)/1(L)
= 0.500(mol)(L^-1)

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Carbon is released back into the atmosphere when organisms die, volcanoes erupt, fires blaze, fossil fuels are burned, and through a variety of other mechanisms.Humans play a major role in the carbon cycle through activities such as the burning of fossil fuels or land development.

At standard temperature and pressure, what volume does 0.5 mol of CO2 occupyAt standard temperature and pressure, what volume do
Zigmanuir [339]
<span>C. 11.2 L There are several different ways to solve this problem. You can look up the density of CO2 at STP and work from there with the molar mass of CO2, but the easiest is to assume that CO2 is an ideal gas and use the ideal gas properties. The key property is that a mole of an idea gas occupies 22.413962 liters. And since you have 0.5 moles, the gas you have will occupy half the volume which is 22.413962 * 0.5 = 11.20698 liters. And of the available choices, option "C. 11.2 L" is the closest match. Note: The figure of 22.413962 l/mole is using the pre 1982 definition of STP which is a temperature of 273.15 K and a pressure of 1 atmosphere (1.01325 x 10^5 pascals). Since 1982, the definition of STP has changed to a temperature of 273.15 K and a pressure of exactly 10^5 pascals. Because of this lower pressure, one mole of an ideal gas will have the higher volume of 22.710947 liters instead of the older value of 22.413962 liters.</span>
