Answer: Temperature

Explanation: According to Kinetic molecular Theory of gases temperature is directly proportional to the kinetic energy of the gas particle which leads to the speed of the gas.

Thus When the temperature increases, thermal motion of the particles increases which lead to the increase in the speed of the particle as they start moving in random directions.

They collide with each other and with the walls of the container during this process as well.

The temperature of the gas, the hotter they get the faster they move. the colder they get, the slower they move

Plot your values of ln(Ksp) vs. 1/T and find the slope and y-intercept of the best fit line. Use the equation for the best fit l

labwork [276]

Answer:

a) The slope of the line of best fit plot = -12629.507

b) ΔH∘ = 105 kJ

c) Intercept of the line of best fit plot = 39.099

d) ΔS∘ = 325.1 J/K

e) Option A is correct.

Solubility will increase as temperature increases, because as T increases the (−ΔH∘/RT) term becomes smaller therefore K will get larger.

f) Option D is correct. All of the options are correct.

Explanation:

The complete question is presented in the first attached image to this question. This complete question has the data readings required to plot the graph.

The second attached image has the plotted graph and the regression analysis to obtain the line of best fit.

The equation of the line of best fit obtained is

y = -12629.507x + 39.099

Comparing the given expression for the question with the equation of a straight line

ln (K) = (−ΔH∘/RT) + (ΔS∘/R)

y = mx + c

y = In K

Slope = m = (−ΔH∘/R)

x = (1/T)

Intercept = c = (ΔS∘/R)

So, to answer the question now

a) The slope of the line of best fit plot = -12629.507

b) Slope = (−ΔH∘/R)

(−ΔH∘/R) = -12629.507

But R = molar gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

ΔH∘ = 12629.507 × 8.314 = 105,001.721198 J = 105,002 J = 105 kJ

c) Intercept of the line of best fit plot = 39.099

d) Intercept = (ΔS∘/R)

(ΔS∘/R) = 39.099

ΔS∘ = 39.099 × 8.314 = 325.069086 J/K = 325.1 J/K

e) Do you expect the solubility of Borax to increase or decrease as temperature increases?

Solubility will increase as temperature increases, because as T increases the (−ΔH∘/RT) term becomes smaller therefore K will get larger.

f) Why was it necessary to make sure that some solid was present in the main solution before taking the samples to measure Ksp? Select the option that best explains why.

A. To make sure no more sodium borate would dissolve in solution.

B. To ensure the dissolution process was at equilibrium.

C. To make sure the solution was saturated with sodium and borate ions.

D. All of the above

when you started the activity, the can was open to the air outside tge can. how did the air pressure inside the can compare to t

aliya0001 [1]

The air pressure inside the can is lower compared to that of outside air pressure.

Explanation:

In general, the air pressure of an already opened can will be the same as the outside pressure.
Since the can is evacuated and remain as vacuum, so there will be no pressure difference in it.
If the can opens, air inside the can push the top and escapes to the outside.
This is due to high pressure experienced outside the can compare to that of lower pressure inside the can and this may even cause can to collapse itself.

A forward reaction in which adding heat decreases product formation is _________, while a forward reaction in which adding heat

ELEN [110]

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. A forward reaction in which adding heat decreases product formation is exothermic, while a forward reaction in which adding heat increases product formation is endothermic. Exothermic would mean that heat is being released by the process while the opposite is called endothermic in which it absorbs heat.

Which of the following statements is true when considering temperature during a recrystallization? More than one answer may be c

Otrada [13]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

(1) It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent.

Explanation:

The process of recrystallization is important to eliminate the impurities and to obtain better crystals of the solid. The solvent used to perform the recrystallization must have a high dissolution power of the substance to be recrystallized and a low dissolution power of the impurities. This is in order to eliminate most impurities. Furthermore, It is important that the sample is dissolved in just enough hot solvent because this should be easy to remove after the recrystallization and the crystal should form easily when the solution cools. Also, it is better to add the hot solvent to solubilize the crystals and keep the impurities insoluble, instead of adding the cold solvent and heating the solution. Additionally, the process of cooling the solution must be done slowly to obtain large and fewer crystals. A fast ice-cooling will form smaller crystals.
