Particles of Substance X are dispersed in water to form a colloid. Which describes the electrical charges on the particles of Su

bstance X?
All the particles carry the same charge, which could be either positive or negative.

Each particle carries a charge that is slightly different from the other particles.

Half of the particles carry a positive charge; the other half carry a negative charge.

All the particles are uncharged, or electrically neutral.

The correct answer is option A.

All the particles carry the same charge, which could be either positive or negative.

All the particles of substance X will have same charge on its surface, which is balanced by the oppositely charged ions in the water.

For example, soap solution (sodium palmitate) dissociates into ions:

C₁₅H₁₁COONa --> C₁₅H₁₁COO⁻ + Na⁺

The cations (Na⁺) passes into the water while the anions (C₁₅H₁₁COO⁻) form aggregates or colloids.

a couple of pennies have a mas of 5.2 grams. Asuming that the pennies are 100% percent copper,how many moles of copper are the p
dangina [55]

Answer:

5.2g copper (Cu) => 0.082 moles copper (2 sig.figs.)

Explanation:

mole conversions:

grams to moles => divide by formula wt.

moles to grams => multiply by formula wt.

gas volumes to moles => divide volume by 22.4Liters/mole (STP conditions only)

This problem:

mass to moles => divide by formula wt.

mass = 5.2g = 5.2g/63.5g/mole = 0.082 moles copper (2 sig.figs.)

How much heat does it take to melt 5.0g solid copper?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Q=1.04kJ

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for latent heat (phase change) we need to consider the enthalpy associated with the involved process, here, melting or fusion; thus, the enthalpy of fusion of copper is 13.2 kJ/mol, therefore, the heat is computed as:

Q=m\Delta H_{fus}

Nevertheless, since the given enthalpy is per mole of copper, we need to use its atomic mass to perform the correct calculation as follows:

Q=5.0g*\frac{1mol}{63.54}* 13.2\frac{kJ}{mol}\\ \\Q=1.04kJ

Which is positive as it needs to be supplied to the system.

Best regards.
