Q =  M * C *ΔT

Q / <span>ΔT  = M

</span>Δf - Δi =  98.4ºC - 62.2ºC = 36.2ºC
<span>
C = 1137 J / 140 * 36.2

C = 1137 / 5068

C = 0.224 J/gºC</span>

A 0.539 g sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to the reaction M(s)+H2SO4(aq)⟶MSO4(aq)+H2(g) A v
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The molar mass of the metal is 54.9 g/mol.

Explanation:

When we work with gases collected over water, the total pressure (atmospheric pressure) is equal to the sum of the vapor pressure of water and the pressure of the gas.

Patm = Pwater + PH₂

PH₂ = Patm - Pwater = 1.0079 bar - 0.03167 bar = 0.9762 bar

The pressure of H₂ is:

0.9762bar.\frac{1atm}{1.013bar} =0.9637atm

The absolute temperature is:

K = °C + 273 = 25°C + 273 = 298 K

We can calculate the moles of H₂ using the ideal gas equation.

P.V=n.R.T\\n=\frac{P.V}{R.T} =\frac{0.9637atm \times 0.249L }{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K)\times298K} =9.81 \times 10^{-3} mol

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

M(s) + H₂SO₄(aq) ⟶ MSO₄(aq) + H₂(g)

The molar ratio of M:H₂ is 1:1. So, 9.81  × 10⁻³ moles of M reacted. The molar mass of the metal is:

\frac{0.539g}{9.81 \times 10^{-3} mol} =54.9g/mol

Complexes containing metals with d10 electron configurations are typically colorless because ________. Complexes containing meta
algol [13]

Answer:

there is no d electron that can be promoted via the absorption of visible light

Explanation:

One of the properties of transition elements is the possession of incompletely filled d orbitals. This property accounts for their unique colours.

The colours of transition metal compounds stem from d-d transition of electrons due to the presence of vacant d orbitals of appropriate energy to which electrons could be promoted.

For elements whose atoms have a d10 configuration, such vacant orbitals does not exist hence their compounds are not colored.

Sometimes, the colour of transition metal compounds stem from ligand to metal charge transfer(LMCT) for instance in KMnO4.

Melting can be best described as a process in which molecules
Savatey [412]
Gain enough kinetic energy to get past each other. Ad you heat up a substance, the temperature increases as does the kinetic energy of the particles. At a point the temperature of the substance will stop increasing. The energy is now being used to increase the potential and move the particles further apart.

Looking at the car in the picture above, explain how the electrons act to form this compound that is on the surface of the car,
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Iron and oxygen act as Fe3+ and O2− ions respectively, forming rust (Fe₂O₃) in the presence of water by the formation of an ionic bond".

Explanation:

Rust is formed when iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of water (either if the iron is submerged or exposed to moisture in the air), forming the chemical compound Fe₂O₃. The presence of water is needed for rust formation because iron and oxygen act as ions when they are exposed to water, particularly Fe3+ and O2− ions respectively. The bond formed between these two elements are ionic bonds, because it is comprised of the reaction between a metal (iron) and a non-metal (oxygen).

About 6 × 109 g of gold is thought to be dissolved in the oceans of the world. If the total volume of the oceans is 1.5 × 1021 L
Lelechka [254]

First, determine the number of moles of gold.

Number of moles  = \frac{given mass in g}{molar mass}

Given mass of gold  =6 \times 10^{9} g

Molar mass of gold  = 196.97 g/mol

Put the values,

Number of moles of gold  = \frac{6 \times 10^{9} g}{196.97 g/mol}

= 0.03046\times  10^{9} mole or 3.046\times  10^{7} moles

Now, molarity  = \frac{moles of solute}{volume of the solution in liters}

Put the values, volume of ocean  =1.5 \times 10^{21} L

Molarity = \frac{3.046\times 10^{7} moles}{1.5 \times 10^{21} L}

= 2.03\times 10^{-14} M

Thus, average molar concentration = 2.03\times 10^{-14} M
