Answer:

<em>293.99 g </em>

OR

<em>0.293 Kg</em>

Explanation:

Given data:

Lattice energy of Potassium nitrate (KNO3) = -163.8 kcal/mol

Heat of hydration of KNO3 = -155.5 kcal/mol

Heat to absorb by KNO3 = 101kJ

To find:

Mass of KNO3 to dissolve in water = ?

Solution:

Heat of solution = Hydration energy - Lattice energy

                           = -155.5 -(-163.8)

                           = 8.3 kcal/mol

We already know,

1 kcal/mol = 4.184 kJ/mole

Therefore,

= 4.184 kJ/mol x 8.3 kcal/mol

= 34.73 kJ/mol

Now, 34.73 kJ of heat is absorbed when 1 mole of KNO3 is dissolved in water.

For 101 kJ of heat would be

= 101/34.73

= 2.908 moles of KNO3

Molar mass of KNO3 = 101.1 g/mole

Mass of KNO3 = Molar mass x moles

                         = 101.1 g/mole  x  2.908

                         = 293.99 g

                         = 0.293 kg

<em><u>293.99 g potassium nitrate has to dissolve in water to absorb 101 kJ of heat. </u></em>

Anika [276]

Factors that increases reaction rate such as increase in concentration or pressure will reduce reaction time whereas factors that decrease reaction rate such as inhibitors will increase reaction time.

<h3>What are the factors that affect reaction rate?</h3>

Factors that affect reaction rate are those factors which increase or decrease the rate of chemical reaction.

The factors that affect reaction rate include:

  • temperature
  • concentration/pressure
  • catalysts
  • surface area
  • nature of substance

Any factor that increases reaction rate such as increase in concentration or pressure will reduce reaction time whereas factors that decrease reaction rate such as inhibitors will increase reaction time.

Which element would be the most conductive and
Masja [62]
Malleability described the property of physical deformation under some compressive stress; a malleable material could, for example, be hammered into thin sheets. Malleability is generally a property of metallic elements: The atoms of elemental metals in the solid state are held together by a sea of indistinguishable, delocalized electrons. This also partially accounts for the generally high electrical and thermal conductivity of metals.

In any case, only one of the elements listed here is a metal, and that’s copper. Moreover, the other elements (hydrogen, neon, and nitrogen) are gases under standard conditions, and so their malleability wouldn’t even be a sensible consideration.
