Hygroscopic substances froms pasty substances and not solution while the liquid ones only becomes diluted. Examples are sodium trioxonitrate(v) (NaNO₃), copper (ii) oxide CuO, and concentrated tetraoxosulphate (vi) acid (H₂SO₄)

Estimate the heat of neutralization of H3PO4 in kJ/mol given these data: Heat transferred = 2.5 x 102 J Moles of H3PO4 = 1.4 x 1
OlgaM077 [116]
Below are the steps to get the answers:

<span>1.) write out the balance equation 3NaOh+H3PO4->Na3PO4+3H2O
 
2.) You are given everything needed to calculate q=heat transfer=2.2*10^2, H3PO4 moles= 1.5*10^-3, NaOH moles=5.0*10^-3
 
3.) equation is deltaHneutraliztion=q/Moles of limiting reagent H3PO4 is limiting reagent because lowest moles, and is used up first
 
4.) Now plug in variables DeltaH=2.2*10^2(1.5*10^3)= 146.67kj/mole Notice we had to convert J to kj, </span>

What 3 things drive the pressure of a gas up
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

<h3>Density of the Gas</h3>

Explanation:

More molecules mean more hits against the container walls. Increasing the number of particles means you have increased the density of the gas. This third factor is part of the ideal gas law, which explains how these three factors -- temperature, volume and density -- interact with each other.
