The equilibrium constant for the gas-phase isomerization of borneol (c10h17oh) to isoborneol at 503 k is 0.106. a mixture consis

ting of 7.50 g of borneol and 15.0 g of isoborneol in a container of volume 6.3 dm3 is heated to 503 k and allowed to come to equilibrium. calculate the mole fractions of the two substances at equilibrium.

The solution is as follows:

K = [Partial pressure of isoborneol]/[Partial pressure of borneol] = 0.106

The molar mass of isoborneol/borneol is 154.25 g/mol

Mol isoborneol = 15 g/154.25 = 0.0972 mol
Mol borneol = 7.5 g/154.25 = 0.0486 mol

Use the ICE approach

        borneol  →  isoborneol
I         0.0972           0.0486
C         -x                     +x
E     0.0972 - x        0.0486 + x

Total moles = 0.1458

Using Raoult's Law,
Partial Pressure = Mole fraction*Total Pressure
[Partial pressure of isoborneol] = [(0.0972-x)/0.1458]*P
[Partial pressure of borneol] = [(0.0486+x/0.1458)]*P

0.106 = [(0.0972-x)/0.1458]*P/ [(0.0486+x/0.1458)]*P
Solving for x,
x = 0.0832 

Thus,
<em>Mol fraction of borneol = (0.0486+0.0832)/0.1458 = 0.904</em>
<em>Mol fraction of isoborneol = (0.0972-0.0832)/0.1458 = 0.096</em>

Some thermodynamic properties of ethanol are listed in the table. Thermodynamic Properties Property Value c (solid) 0.5 J/g °C c
alexira [117]
<h2>Answer </h2>

Option C - 320J

<u>Explanation </u>

Since ethanol solid at −120 °C and is only cooling down (it won’t change states) . The amount of Thermodynamic properties values c is given in form of solid, liquid and gas. Amount of energy released is calculated below.  

Formula,

= change in temperature  x specific heat capacity for solid ethanol x 40

=> 0.5 x 16x 40 = 320J

Therefore, the 320J of heat is released when 40.0g of ethanol cools.

A vial is filled with room temperature water, and blue cold water has been placed at the bottom. A warm water bag sits next to t
MrRa [10]

Explanation:

In the context, a vial which is used in store medical samples is filled with water at room temperature. And the vial is kept on a cold water. Also a water bag containing warm water is kept near the vial.

The cold water kept at the bottom of the vial is having lower kinetic energy while warm water will have higher kinetic energy than the others. Since the water in the vial is at room temperature and it is in touch with the cold blue water, the water in the vial will loose or give its temperature to the cold blue water through conduction as well as convection process since temperature always flows from a hot body towards the cold body.

On the other hand, the warm water placed next tot he vial will give its temperature to the atmosphere.
