Explain what a compound is and how you can tell one by looking at a chemical formula?

Chemistry
1 answer:
mariarad [96]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Chemical Compounds are substances that are made up of 2 or more elements that have reacted to each other through a chemical bond to give a different substance to the initial elements.

The chemical formula is an expression used to indicate the molecular composition of a compound. In other words, it indicates by means of symbols the elements that make up the compounds and their proportion.

hoa [83]

Answer:

The total energy change, ΔE, in kilojoules = -61.93 kJ

Explanation:

Relationship between ΔH, ΔE and work done is given by first law of thermodynamics.

ΔE = ΔH - PΔV

Where,

ΔH = Change in enthalpy

ΔE = Change in internal energy

PΔV = Work done

Given that,

ΔH = -75.0 kJ = -75000 J

P = 43.0 atm

ΔV = Final volume - initial volume

    = (2.00 - 5.00) = -3.00 L

PΔV = 43 × (-3.00) = -129 L atm

1 L atm = 101.325 J

-129 L atm = 129 × 101.325 = -13071 J

So ,

ΔE = ΔH - PΔV

     = (-75000 J) - ( -13071 J)

     =  -75000 J + 13071 J

     = -61929 J

Total energy change, ΔE = -61.929 kJ

As a step O3 0.020 mol to gr
White raven [17]
Molar mass:

Atomic mass O = 16.0 a.m.u

O₃ = 16.0 x 3 => 48.0 g/mol

Therefore:

1 mole O₃ --------------- 48.0 g
0.020 mole O₃ ---------- ??

0.020 x 48.0 / 1 =

0.96 / 1 => 0.96 g 

hope this helps!

What is the mole fraction of each component in a solution made by mixing 300 g of ethanol(C2H5OH) and 500 g of water?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The mole fraction of ethanol and water in the solution are 0.19 and 0.81 respectively.

Explanation:

The Molar Fraction is a way of measuring the concentration that expresses the proportion in which a substance is found with respect to the total moles of the solution, which are calculated by adding the moles of solute (s) and solvent.

It is calculated by dividing the number of moles of one of the components by the total number of moles of the solution.

The sum of all the molar fractions of the substances present in a solution is equal to 1.

So, the expression to calculate the mole fraction is:

Molar fraction (Xi)=\frac{moles of sudstance}{total moles of the solution}

Being the molar mass of the compounds:

  • Ethanol 46 \frac{g}{mol}
  • Water 18 \frac{g}{mol}

the number of moles that represent the mass quantities is calculated as:

  • Moles of ethanol: 300 grams* \frac{1 mol}{46 grams} = 6.52 moles
  • Moles of water: 500 grams* \frac{1 mol}{18 grams} = 27.78 moles

So the total moles in solution are 6.52 moles + 27.78 moles = 34.3 moles

The mole fraction of ethanol in the solution is calculated as:

mole fraction of ethanol=x_{ethanol} =\frac{6.52 moles}{34.3 moles}

x_{ethanol} =0.19

The mole fraction of water in the solution is calculated as:

mole fraction of water=x_{water} =\frac{27.78 moles}{34.3 moles}

x_{water} =0.81

Then:

x_{water} +x_{ethanol} = 0.81 + 0.19

x_{water} +x_{ethanol} =1

<u><em>The mole fraction of ethanol and water in the solution are 0.19 and 0.81 respectively.</em></u>

From the mass of Al reacted, how many moles are present? What is the mole ratio between Al and H2 in the balanced chemical react
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

From the mass of Al reacted, how many moles are present? We don't have the mass of Al reacted

What is the mole ratio between Al and H2 in the balanced chemical reaction?

By stoichiometry, ratio between Al and H₂ is 3:2

What units are required on the temperature when doing calculations with gases? °K degrees

The value of R is 0.082 L.atm/mol.K

Explanation:

A chemical reaction for this can be this one:

2Al (s)  + 6HCl (aq)  →  2AlCl₃(aq)  + 3H₂ (g)

Balanced

To get the moles which are present in the mass of Al reacted you must calculate:

Al Mass / Al molar mass = Al moles

The Ideal Gas equation is this one:

Pressure . Volume = n° moles . R (gases constant) . T°K

The temperature must be in K, because the units of R

We usually use R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K
