4). One mole of monoclinic sulfur at 25C was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter whose heat capacity (C) was 1620 J/K. T

he temperature of the calorimeter increased by 0.150 Co when the sulfur changed from the monoclinic to the orthorhombic form. Calculate the enthalpy change for the process S(monoclinic)  S(orthorhombic).

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy change of the reaction is -243 J/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

The heat released by the reaction is absorbed by the calorimeter and the solution.

The chemical equation used to calculate the heat released follows:

q=c\times \Delta T

where,

c = heat capacity of calorimeter = 1620 J/K

\Delta T = change in temperature = 0.150^oC=0.150K   (Change remains same)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

q=1620J/K\times 0.15K=243J

<u>Sign convention of heat:</u>

When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.

For the given chemical reaction:

S\text{ (monoclinic)}\rightarrow S\text{ (orthorhombic)}

We are given:

Moles of monoclinic sulfur = 1 mole

  • To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{q}{n}

where,  

q = amount of heat released = -243 J

n = number of moles = 1 mole

\Delta H_{rxn} = enthalpy change of the reaction

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{-243J}{1mol}=-243J/mol

Hence, the enthalpy change of the reaction is -243 J/mol

What is the composition, in atom percent, of an alloy that consists of a) 5.5 wt% Pb and b) 94.5 wt% of Sn? Assume that the atom
Anastaziya [24]

Answer : The percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom is, 3.21 % and 96.8 % respectively.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the number of atoms in 5.5 wt% Pb and 94.5 wt% of Sn.

As, 207.2 g of lead contains 6.022\times 10^{23} atoms

So, 5.5 g of lead contains \frac{5.5}{207.2}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=1.59\times 10^{22} atoms

and,

As, 118.71 g of lead contains 6.022\times 10^{23} atoms

So, 94.5 g of lead contains \frac{94.5}{118.71}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=4.79\times 10^{23} atoms

Now we have to calculate the percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom.

\% \text{Composition of Pb}=\frac{\text{Atoms of Pb}}{\text{Atoms of Pb}+\text{Atoms of Sn}}\times 100

\% \text{Composition of Pb}=\frac{1.59\times 10^{22}}{(1.59\times 10^{22})+(4.79\times 10^{23})}\times 100=3.21\%

and,

\% \text{Composition of Sn}=\frac{\text{Atoms of Sn}}{\text{Atoms of Pb}+\text{Atoms of Sn}}\times 100

\% \text{Composition of Sn}=\frac{4.79\times 10^{23}}{(1.59\times 10^{22})+(4.79\times 10^{23})}\times 100=96.8\%

Thus, the percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom is, 3.21 % and 96.8 % respectively.

Silver is a white metal that is an excellent conductor. Silver tarnishes when exposed to air and light. The density of silver is
Stells [14]

Answer:

c tarnishes in air

Explanation:

After silver has been exposed to air that contains sulphur gases, discoloration would occur. there would be darkening that is caused by the reaction with gases.When any silver object tarnishes, it brings about a disfiguring of that object. Hydrogen sulphide would be needed for this to happen. silver sulphide is black and a if a thin layer should form on any surface, it ill darken it. This  is what we refer to as tarnishing.
