What is the specific latent heat of a fussion for a substance that takes 550 kj to melt 14 kg at 262 k?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lina20 [59]3 years ago
7 0

The latent heat is correlated with energy as follows:

Q = mL

550 * 103 = 14 * 103 * L

L = 39.285 J /g

Thus, latent heat of the substance is 39.285 j /g

Which reaction is a decomposition reaction? A. 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2 B. 4Na + O2 → 2Na2O C. ZnS + 3O2 → 2ZnO + 2SO2 D. 2NaBr + CaF
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

  • <em><u>Option A. </u></em><u><em>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</em></u>

Explanation:

There are five basic general types of chemical reactions:

  • Decomposition reactions
  • Synthesis or combination reaction
  • Single replacement reactions
  • Double replacement reactions
  • Combustion reactions

The given reactions are:

  • <u>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</u>

Which is, indeed, a decomposition reaction because the reactant, KClO₃, is a single substance that undergoes a reaction in which it yields two new substances, known as products: KCl and O₂.

  • <u>4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O</u> is a synthesis or combination reaction because two reactants, Na and O₂, combine for the formation of one single new product, Na₂O.

  • <u>ZnS + 3 O₂ →  2ZnO + 2SO₂ </u>is a single replacement reaction because oxygen is replacing Zn and S in ZnS to form ZnO and plus SO₂.

  • <u>2NaBr + CaF₂ → 2NaF + CaBr₂ </u>is a double replacement reaction because two  ions (Br⁻ from NaBr and F⁻ from CaF₂) are exchanging places with other two ions (Na⁺ from NaBr and Ca²⁺ from CaF₂) two form two new ionic compounds (NaF and CaBr₂).

What is the temperature of 0.5 moles of water vapor that occupies 120 dm3 and applies a pressure of 15,000 Pa to its container?
MArishka [77]
Use the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

so, T = PV / nR

n=0.5
V= 120 dm^3 = 120 L  (1 dm^3 = 1 L)
R = 1/12
P = 15,000 Pa =  0.147 atm     (1 pa = 9.86 10^{-6} )

Put the values:

T = PV / nR
T = (0.147) (120) / (0.5) (1/12)
T= 426 K

Carbon-14 is best used to find the age of:
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

anciet fossils

Explanation:

Radiocarbon dating involves determining the age of an ancient fossil or specimen by measuring its carbon-14 content. Carbon-14, or radiocarbon, is a naturally occurring radioactive isotope that forms when cosmic rays in the upper atmosphere strike nitrogen molecules, which then oxidize to become carbon dioxide.

A double-replacement reaction, the ____.
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

b. reactants are two ionic compounds.

Explanation:

A double-replacement reaction is different from a single-replacement reaction  because a double-replacement reaction is a reaction between two ionic compounds while in a single-replacement reaction one atom replace another atom. In addition, the product formed from a double-replacement reaction often precipitate from the given solution.
