D. Metamorphic rock melts and crystallizes to become igneous rock.

Igneous rocks form when molten rock cools and solidifies. Igneous rocks have different textures and this is because the texture is determined by how quickly the rock cools down. The rocks that tend to be near the surface cool faster than the rocks that are not close the the surface.

The radius of an atom of gold (Au) is about 1.35 Å.

Eduardwww [97]

Two radius of an atom is equal to the diameter. Adding up all the diameter of the atoms, it should be equal to 9.5 mm. Therefore, we simply convert the units to the same units then divide 1.35 A to 9.5 mm. We calculate as follows:

no. of atoms = 0.0095 m / 1.35x10^-9 m = 7037037 atoms

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Fed [463]

Answer:

A. -166.6 kJ/mol

B. -127.7 kJ/mol

C. -133.9 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Let's consider the oxidation of sulfur dioxide.

2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 SO₃(g) ΔG° = -141.8 kJ

The Gibbs free energy (ΔG) can be calculated using the following expression:

ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ

where,

ΔG° is the standard Gibbs free energy

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the absolute temperature (25 + 273.15 = 298.15 K)

Q is the reaction quotient

The molar concentration of each gas ([]) can be calculated from its pressure (P) using the following expression:

$[]=\frac{P}{R.T}$

Calculate ΔG at 25°C given the following sets of partial pressures.

Part A 130atm SO₂, 130atm O₂, 2.0atm SO₃. Express your answer using four significant figures.

$[SO_{2}]=[O_{2}]=\frac{130atm}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).298K} =5.32M$

$[SO_{3}]=\frac{2.0atm}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).298K} =0.0818M$

$Q=\frac{[SO_3]^{2} }{[SO_{2}]^{2}.[O_{2}] } =\frac{0.0818^{2} }{5.32^{3} } =4.44 \times 10^{-5}$

ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ = -141.8 kJ/mol + (8.314 × 10⁻³ kJ/mol.K) × 298 K × ln (4.44 × 10⁻⁵) = -166.6 kJ/mol

Part B 5.0atm SO₂, 3.0atm O₂, 30atm SO₃ Express your answer using four significant figures.

$[SO_{2}]=\frac{5.0atm}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).298K}=0.204M$

$[O_{2}]=\frac{3.0atm}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).298K}=0.123M$

$[SO_{3}]=\frac{30atm}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).298K}=1.23M$

$Q=\frac{[SO_3]^{2} }{[SO_{2}]^{2}.[O_{2}] } =\frac{1.23^{2} }{0.204^{2}.0.123 } =296$

ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ = -141.8 kJ/mol + (8.314 × 10⁻³ kJ/mol.K) × 298 K × ln 296 = -127.7 kJ/mol

Part C Each reactant and product at a partial pressure of 1.0 atm. Express your answer using four significant figures.

$[SO_{2}]=[O_{2}]=[SO_{3}]=\frac{1.0atm}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).298K}=0.0409M$

$Q=\frac{[SO_3]^{2} }{[SO_{2}]^{2}.[O_{2}] } =\frac{0.0409^{2} }{0.0409^{3}} =24.4$

ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ = -141.8 kJ/mol + (8.314 × 10⁻³ kJ/mol.K) × 298 K × ln 24.4 = -133.9 kJ/mol
