How do water molecules behave?

Chemistry

bulgar [2K]3 years ago

Water is polar meaning that it has prominent areas of negative and positive charge. Among water molecules there is a weak force called hydrogen bonding which causes the molecules to "stick" to one another. This sticking to itself is called cohesion, and it causes water to ball up into droplets. This same force also causes water to stick to other kinds of molecules. This is called adhesion, and it is what causes water to ride up on the side of a water container slightly.

Using the van der waals equation, the pressure in a 22.4 l vessel containing 1.50 mol of chlorine gas at 0.00 °c is ________ atm
Lana71 [14]

Answer is: the pressure in a vessel is 1.48 atm.

V(Cl₂) = 22.4 L; pressure of chlorine gas.

n(Cl₂) = 1.50 mol; amount of chlorine gas.

T = 0.00°C = 273.15 K; temperature.

a = 6.49 L²·atm/mol²; the constant a provides a correction for the intermolecular forces.

b = 0.0562 L/mol; value is the volume of one mole of the chlorine gas.

R = 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K, universal gas constant.

Van de Waals equation: (P + an² / V²)(V - nb) = nRT.

(P +  6.49 L²·atm/mol² · (1.5 mol)² / (22.4 L)²) · (22.4 L - 1.5 mol·0.0562 L/mol) = 1.5 mol · 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K · 273.15 K.

(P +  6.49 L²·atm/mol² · (1.5 mol)² / (22.4 L)²) = (1.5 mol · 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K · 273.15 K) ÷ (22.4 L - 1.5 mol · 0.0562 L/mol).

P + 0.029 atm = 33.62 L·atm ÷ 22.31 L.

P = 1.507 atm - 0.029 atm.

P = 1.48 atm; the pressure.

Calculate the percent of Cl in KClO4
sergejj [24]

Answer:

25.6 %.

Explanation:

  • To calculate the % of Cl in KClO₄:

<em>% Cl = [Atomic mass of (Cl)/molar mass of KClO₄] x 100</em> = [(35.5 g/mol)/(138.55 g/mol)] x 100 = <em>25.62 % ≅ 25.6 %.</em>

) A children’s liquid cold medicine has a density of 1.23 g/mL. If a child is to take 2.5 tsp in a dose, what is the mass in gra
vekshin1

The relation between density and mass and volume is

Density=\frac{Mass}{volume}

the dose required is 2.5 tsp

each tsp contain 5mL

So dose required in mL = 2.5 X 5 = 12.5 mL

the mass will be calculated using following formula

Mass=DensityXvolume

Mass=1.23\frac{g}{mL}X12.5mL= 15.38g

The mass of dose in grams will be 15.38 g

Which would be best categorized as heat transfer by conduction? A) Wearing a white shirt to stay cool on a summer day. B) Warmin
erik [133]

Answer:

Conduction is heat transfer through the direct contact of two subjects. The best example of this would be C, because it is the direct transfer of heat from the lightbulb to your hand. :)
