How many grams of XeF6 are required to react with 0.579 L of hydrogen gas at 6.46 atm and 45°C in the reaction shown below?

1 answer:

3 0

The chemical reaction equation for this is

XeF6 + 3H2 ---> Xe + 6HF

Assuming gas behaves ideally, we use the ideal gas formula to solve for number of moles H2 with T = 318.15K (45C), P = 6.46 atm, V = 0.579L. Then we use the gas constant R = 0.08206 L atm K-1 mol-1.

we get n = 0.1433 moles H2

to get the mass of XeF6,

we divide 0.1433 moles H2 by 3 since 1 mole XeF6 needs 3 moles H2 to react then multiply by the molecular weight of XeF6 which is 245.28 g/mole XeF6.

0.1433 moles H2 x $\frac{1 mole XeF6}{3 moles H2}$ x $\frac{245.28 g XeF6}{1 mole XeF6}$ = 11.71 g XeF6

Therefore, 11.71 g of XeF6 is needed to completely react with 0.579 L of Hydrogen gas at 45 degrees Celcius and 6.46 atm.

When the volume of a gas is

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 232.9 \textdegree C}}$

Explanation:

This question asks us to find the temperature change given a volume change. We will use Charles's Law, which states the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature. The formula is:

$\frac {V_1}{T_1}= \frac{V_2}{T_2}$

The volume of the gas starts at 250 milliliters and the temperature is 137 °C.

$\frac{250 \ mL}{137 \textdegree C}= \frac{V_2}{T_2}$

The volume of the gas is increased to 425 milliliters, but the temperature is unknown.

$\frac{250 \ mL}{137 \textdegree C}= \frac{425 \ mL}{T_2}$

We are solving for the new temperature, so we must isolate the variable T₂. First, cross multiply. Multiply the first numerator and second denominator, then multiply the first denominator and second numerator.

$250 \ mL * T_2 = 137 \textdegree C * 425 \ mL$

Now the variable is being multiplied by 250 milliliters. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 250 mL.

$\frac{250 \ mL * T_2}{250 \ mL}=\frac{ 137 \textdegree C * 425 \ mL}{250 \ mL}$

$T_2=\frac{ 137 \textdegree C * 425 \ mL}{250 \ mL}$

The units of milliliters (mL) cancel.

$T_2=\frac{ 137 \textdegree C * 425 }{250 }$

$T_2= \frac{58225}{250} \textdegree C$

$T_2=232.9 \textdegree C$

The temperature changes to <u>232.9 degrees Celsius.</u>

A football is inflated to 12psi at 20°C What is the new pressure in the football

Radda [10]

Answer: The new pressure is 3 psi.

Explanation:

Given: $P_{1}$ = 12 psi, $T_{1} = 20^{o}C$

$P_{2}$ = ?, $T_{2} = 5^{o}C$

Formula used is as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{12 psi}{20^{o}C} = \frac{P_{2}}{5^{o}C}\\P_{2} = \frac{12 psi \times 5^{o}C}{20^{o}C}\\= 3 psi$

Thus, we can conclude that the new pressure is 3 psi.

when hydrogen atom absorbs a photon, and an electron moves level 1 to level 2, what happens to the energy of the atom?

pychu [463]

Answer:

When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon).

how do the properties of compounds compare to the properties of the elements from which they are composed

Crank

<span>The elements that form the compound don't compare because it doesn't matter about the elements when they are combined. The elements that formed it together is completely different than the outcome compound. </span>
