Answer : The unknown monoatomic gas is, argon.

Explanation :

According to the Graham's law, the rate of effusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of gas.

R\propto \sqrt{\frac{1}{M}}

or,

(\frac{R_2}{R_1})=\sqrt{\frac{M_1}{M_2}}       ..........(1)

where,

R_1 = rate of effusion of unknown gas  = 2R

R_2 = rate of effusion of Br_2 gas  = R

M_1 = molar mass of unknown gas  = ?

M_2 = molar mass of Br_2 gas = 160 g/mole

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

(\frac{R}{2R})=\sqrt{\frac{M_1}{160g/mole}}

M_1=40g/mol

From the molar mass 40 g/mol we conclude that the unknown monoatomic gas will be, argon.

Therefore, the unknown monoatomic gas is, argon.

Which expression correctly represents a balanced reduction half-reaction?
jolli1 [7]
For answering for the question, there exists four choices:
1) Na+  +  e- -------------- Na
2) Na --------Na+   +  e-
3) Cl2 +   2e-  ------------ Cl-
4) 2Cl-  ---------Cl2 +  2e-

reduction half-reaction general formula is 
oxidant + e - or +  -------- Product

so in our case the answer is 
1) Na+  +  e- -------------- Na (exactly balanced)

What would be the greatest difference in using an open ceramic coffee mug rather than an insulated mug with a lid as a calorimet
adoni [48]
The answer is number 4 or the exchange of energy with the surroundings. Calorimetry is a measurement of energy that is formed or absorbed in a certain process. The calorimeter is the instrument used in order to measure the energy. It is recommended that a calorimeter should be a closed system so as to measure precisely the energy and avoid or lessen the exchange of energy with the surroundings. Thus, comparing an open ceramic mug and an insulated mug with a lid, the greatest difference is the energy lost to the surroundings.

What would be the freezing point of a solution that has a molality of 1.324 m which was prepared by dissolving biphenyl (C12H10)
lbvjy [14]

The freezing point of a 1.324 m solution, prepared by dissolving biphenyl into naphthalene, is 71.12 ° C.

A solution is prepared by dissolving biphenyl into naphthalene. We can calculate the freezing point depression (ΔT) for naphthalene using the following expression.

\Delta T = i \times Kf \times m =   1 \times 6.90 \°C/m  \times 1.324m = 9.14  \°C

where,

  • i: van 't Hoff factor (1 for non-electrolytes)
  • Kf: cryoscopic constant
  • m: molality

The normal freezing point of naphthalene is 80.26 °C. The freezing point of the solution is:

T = 80.26 \° C - 9.14 \° C = 71.12 \° C

The freezing point of a 1.324 m solution, prepared by dissolving biphenyl into naphthalene, is 71.12 ° C.

In the reaction 2H2O (1)+ 2Cl^- (aq)= H2(g)+Cl2 (g)+ 2OH^-(aq), which substance is reduced?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:- C. H

Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.

As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.

The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

In H_2O , the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl^- is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in H_2 is zero and in OH^- the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl_2 is 0.

From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.

Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.

Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.

So, the right choice is C.H
