Answer: Argon

Explanation:

To find the <em>amount of an unknown noble gas that requires 157 seconds fo effuse from a container from which a same amount of sample of neon effuses in 77 seconds</em>, you must use Graham's Law of effusion.

Graham's law of effusion states the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the masses of its particles. Mathematically, that is:

\frac{Rate_1}{Rate_2}=\sqrt{\frac{MolarMass_2}{MolarMass_1}}

Since, the other conditions (amount of gas and container) are the same for both gases, the rates and the times are inversely proportional; this is:

\frac{Rate_1}{Rate_2}=\frac{Time_2}{Time_1}

  • By using the previous equations, you can <u>relate the times and the molar masses of the gases</u>:

\sqrt{\frac{MolarMass_2}{MolarMass_1}}=\frac{Time_2}{Time_1}

  • <u>Clear the unknown molar mass</u>:

\frac{MolarMass_2}{MolarMass_1}={(\frac{Time_2}{Time_1})}^2\\ \\ \\MolarMass_2=(\frac{Times_2}{Time_1} )^2 .MolarMass_1

  • <u>Substitute the data</u>:

MolarMass₂ = (157 s / 77 s) × MolarMass₁

  • <u>From a periodic table</u>, obtain the molar mass of neon gas:

Molar Mass₁ = 20.180 g/mol

∴ MolarMass₂ = (157 s / 77 s) × 20.180 g/mol = 41  g/mol

  • Again from the periodic table, <u>find the noble gas with the molar mass closest to 41 g/mol</u>.

        It is argon. The molar mass of argon is 30.948 g/mol. So, argon (Ar) is the answer.

Is the dissolution of borax in water a temperature dependent reaction or is it spontaneous at all temperatures at which water is
enot [183]

The dissolution of borax in water is a temperature dependent reaction. With the higher temperature, the salt dissolve quickly.

<h3>What is borax?</h3>

Borax is the hydrate salt of boric acid. It is white and widely used in cleaning and in laundry  detergent.

Borax is a salt that will dissolve in water at almost any temperature, with the exception of steam and ice.

However, as with any salt, the higher the temperature, the faster the salt dissolves, so speed is dependent on temperature. It will dissolve in cold water, but it will take longer.

Thus, the dissolution of borax in water is a temperature dependent reaction.
