Answer:

The compound is N2O4

Explanation:

We have certain important pieces of information about the compound;

1) it is an oxide (a binary compound of nitrogen and oxygen)

2) there are no N-N bonds present

3) there are no O-O bonds present

Since it contains only nitrogen and oxygen then nitrogen accounts for 25.9% of the molecule by mass then oxygen should account for (100-25.9) = 74.1% oxygen

Relative atomic mass of oxygen = 16

Relative atomic mass of nitrogen = 14

We now deduce the empirical formula

Nitrogen. Oxygen

25.9/14. 74.1/16

1.85/1.85. 4.6/1.85 (divide through by the lowest ratio)

1 2

Empirical formula is NO2

To find the molecular formula

(NO2)n = 108

(14+2(16))n= 108

46n=108

n= 108/46

n= 2

Therefore molecular formula= N2O4

A piece of unknown metal weighs 348g. When the metal piece absorbs 6.64kj of heat , its temperature increases from 24.4C to 43.6
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

This metal could be the aluminium with a specific heat of H = 993 \frac{J}{kgC}

Explanation:

A pie of unknown metal presents a mass (M) of 348 g. This metal is heated using energy (E) of 6.64 kJ and the temperature increases from T1 =24.4 to T2 =43.6°C. We can calculate the specific heat (H) of this metal as follows

H = \frac{E}{M*(T2-T1)}

We can replace previously presented data in this equation. After simplifying and converting to adequated units, we found that

H = \frac{6640 J}{0.348 Kg*(43.6-24.4) C} =\frac{6640 J}{6.686 KgC}

Finally, the specific heat of this metal is

H = 993 \frac{J}{kgC}

The aluminium could be the metal, its specific heat is similar to that found in this problem.

Finally,  we can conclude that this metal could be the aluminium with a specific heat of H = 993 \frac{J}{kgC}

A system gains 687 kJ of heat, resulting in a change in internal energy of the system equal to 156 kJ. How much work is done?
Maslowich

Answer:

w = -531 kJ

1. Work was done by the system.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Heat gained by the system (q): 687 kJ (By convention, when the system absorbs heat, q > 0).
  • Change in the internal energy of the system (ΔU°): 156 kJ

Step 2: Calculate the work done (w)

We will use the following expression.

ΔU° = q + w

w = ΔU° - q

w = 156 kJ - 687 kJ

w = -531 kJ

By convention, when w < 0, work is done by the system on the surroundings.
