When a piece of solid phosphorus is added to a flask containing chlorine gas, heat is evolved?

1 answer:

7 0

White phosphorus burns spontaneously in chlorine to produce a mixture of two chlorides, phosphorus (ii) chloride and phosphorus(v) chloride and heat is evolved. Phosphorus (iii) chloride is a colorless fuming liquid:
P4 + 6Cl2 = 4PCl3
Phosphorus (v) chloride is an off-white solid
P4 +10Cl2 = 4PCl5

Which element is classified as an alkali metal?<br> Rb<br> Sr<br> Zr<br> Cl

qwelly [4]

Hi there.

Alkali metals are known as the group 1 elements.

When we know this, we just have to look to group 1 of the periodic table.

Rb (Rubidium) is in group 1; it is classified as an alkali metal.

ASAP!!! Explain: Why do black lines appear on the absorption spectrum of the sun?

Molodets [167]

The black lines in the Sun's spectrum are caused by gases on, or above, the Sun's surface that absorb some of the emitted light.

If 16.8 mL of the analyte H2C2O4 (oxalic acid) is titrated with 0.501 M KOH to 13.54 mL, determine the mass of the analyte.

Neko [114]

Answer:

Mass of Analyte H2C2O4 = 18.18 grams

Explanation:

The balanced equation is:

$H_{2}C_{2}O_{4}+2KOH\rightarrow K_{2}C_{2})_{4}+H_{2}O$

The Molarity of Oxalic acid needed can be determined using: $M_{1}V_{1}=M_{2}V_{2}$

Here M1 = Molarity of Oxalic acid

V1 = Volume of oxalic acid

M2 = Molarity of KOH and V2 = Volume of KOH

M1 = ? , V1 = 16.8 mL , M2 = 0.501 M , V2 = 13.54 mL

Put the values and solve for M2,

$M_{1}V_{1}=M_{2}V_{2}$

$2\times M_{1}(16.8)=0.501\times 13.54$

We are multiplying by 2 because , 1 H2C2O4 needs 2 KOH

$M_{1}=\frac{0.501\times 13.54}{2\times 16.8}$

$M_{1}=0.202M$

Hence Molarity of H2C2O4 =

0.202 M

Molar mass = H2C2O4 = 2x1 +2x12 + 4x16

= 2+24+64 = 90 gram

$Mole =molarity\times Molar\ mass$

$Moles=0.202\times 90$

18.18 gram

H2, N2, O2 molecules. . . A)must be polar. must be nonpolar. . B)can be polar or nonpolar depending on geometric . C)configurati

LenKa [72]

Answer: The correct option is A.

Explanation: The given molecules are the molecules of same element.

These molecules are considered as diatomic species.

Polar molecules are the molecules in which some polarity is present in the bond. These molecules are formed when there is some difference in the electronegativities of the elements. Example: HCl

Non-polar molecules are the molecules where no polarity is present in the bond. These molecules are formed when there is no difference in the electronegativities of the elements. Example: $H_2, O_2$

The given molecules are non-polar in nature.

Hence, these molecules must be non-polar. So, the correct option is A.
