Copper has a density of 8.96 g/cm3. If 75.0 g of copper is added to 50.0 mL of water in a graduated cylinder, to what volume rea

ding will the water level in the cylinder rise?

Answer:

The answer to your question is Final volume = 58.37 ml

Explanation:

Data

density = 8.96 g/cm³

mass = 75 g

volume of water = 50 ml

Process

1.- Calculate the volume of copper

Density = mass / volume

Solve for volume

Volume = mass / density

Substitution

Volume = 75/8.96

Simplification

Volume = 8.37cm³ or 8.37 cm³

2.- Calculate the new volume of water in the graduated cylinder

Final volume = 50 + 8.37

Final volume = 58.37 ml

The molecular formula for butane is C4H10. Determine the percent composition for

masya89 [10]

%Mass

Ar C = 12 g/mol, Mr C₄H₁₀ = 58 g/mol, Ar H = 1 g/mol

$\tt C=\dfrac{4.12}{58}\times 100\%=82.8\%\\\\H=100\%-82.8\%=17.2\%$

or

$\tt H=\dfrac{10.1}{58}\times 100\%= 17.2\%$

To determine the enthalpy and entropy of dissolving a compound, you need to measure the Ksp at multiple _______. Then, plot ln(K

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

To determine the enthalpy and entropy of dissolving a compound, you need to measure the Ksp at multiple temperatures. Then, plot ln(Ksp) vs. 1/T. The slope of the plotted line relates to the enthalpy (ΔH) of dissolving and the intercept of the plotted line relates to the entropy (ΔS) of dissolving.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us use the thermodynamic definition of the Gibbs free energy and its relationship with Ksp as follows:

$\Delta G=-RTln(Ksp)\\\\\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S$

Thus, by combining them, we obtain:

$-RTln(Ksp)=\Delta H-T\Delta S\\\\ln(Ksp)=-\frac{\Delta H}{RT} +\frac{T\Delta S}{RT} \\\\ln(Ksp)=-\frac{\Delta H}{RT} +\frac{\Delta S}{R}$

Which is related to the general line equation:

$y=mx+b$

Whereas:

$y=ln(Ksp)\\\\m=-\frac{\Delta H}{R} \\\\x=\frac{1}{T} \\\\b=\frac{\Delta S}{R}$

It means that we answer to the blanks as follows:

To determine the enthalpy and entropy of dissolving a compound, you need to measure the Ksp at multiple temperatures. Then, plot ln(Ksp) vs. 1/T. The slope of the plotted line relates to the enthalpy (ΔH) of dissolving and the intercept of the plotted line relates to the entropy (ΔS) of dissolving.

Convert a density of 7.2 g/ml into the unit kg/L

aivan3 [116]

Unit conversion is a multi-step process, in which division or multiplication by a numeral factor is involved.

Density = $7.2 g/mL$ (given)

Since, $1 g = 0.001 kg$ and

$1 mL = 0.001 L$

Now, converting $7.2 g/mL$ to $kg/L$ :

$7.2 \frac{g}{mL}\times \frac{1 kg}{1000 g}\times \frac{1000 mL}{1 L}$

= $7.2 kg/L$ .

Hence, density is $7.2 kg/L$ .

Explain how dalton’s atomic theory offered a convincing explanation of the observation that mass is conserved in chemical reacti

podryga [215]

Dalton's atomic theory was based on the law of conservation of mass which states that the matter can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only transformed into one form or another. In a chemical reaction, total mass of the reactants will be equal to the total mass of the products.

Taking an example,

$methane+oxygen\rightarrow \text{carbon dioxide}+water$

$CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O$

Mass of $CH_4$ = 16g

Mass of $2O_2$ = $2\times 32g$

Total mass on reactant side = $(16+2\times 32)$

Total mass on reactant side = 80g

Mass of $CO_2$ = 44g

Mass of $2H_2O=2\times 18g$

Total mass on product side = $(44+2\times 18)$

Total mass on product side = 80g

It is seen from the above example that the

total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side.
