Which sample of ethanol has particles with the highest average kinetic energy?

2 answers:

6 0

The second one.
Remember, temperature is the AVERAGE kinetic energy. So, looking for highest average kinetic energy means looking for highest temperature, which is 55.
Note: the amount of the substance does not determine the average kinetic energy.

The answer is two. All you are looking for with highest average kinetic energy is the one with the highest temperature. In this case it is 10mL ethanol at 55 degrees Celsius.

At a certain temperature, Kc = 0.0500 and ∆H = +39.0 kJ for the reaction below, 2 MgCl2(s) + O2(g) → 2MgO(s) + Cl2(g) Calculate

Minchanka [31]

Explanation:

Since, it is shown that the reaction has been reversed. Therefore, value of $K_{c}$ will become $\frac{1}{K_{c}}$ .

Hence, new $K_{c'} = \frac{1}{K_{c}}$

= $\frac{1}{0.0500}$

= 20

Also, the number of moles of each reactant has been halved. So, $K_{c''}$ for the reaction $MgO(s) + \frac{1}{2}Cl2(g) → MgCl_{2}(s) + \frac{1}{2} O2(g)$ will also get halved.

Therefore, $K_{c''}$ = $K_{c'}$ = $(20)^{0.5}$

= 4.47

As the value of $\Delta H$ is given as +39.0 kJ. So, it means that the reaction is endothermic in nature. So, energy of reactants will be more than the products. Hence, according to Le Chatelier's principle reaction will move in the forward direction.

As a result, $K_{c}$ will also increase with increase in temperature.

Based on the kinetic theory, which statement is true?

Effectus [21]

answer is A

The kinetic theory is used to explain the behaviour of gases.

One of the assumptions states that "a gas is composed of a large number of identical molecules moving at different speeds".

Nitrogen effuses through a pinhole 1.7 times as fast as another gaseous element under the same conditions. Estimate the other el

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

80.92, Krypton

Explanation:

What is effusion?

• It is a process where gas escapes through a pinhole (a very small hole) into a region of low pressure or vacuum

Graham's law of effusion of gas

• states that at a given constant temperature and pressure, the rate of effusion of gases is inversely proportional to the square root of their molar masses

$\boxed{ \frac{Rate_1}{Rate_2} = \sqrt{ \frac{M_2}{M_1} } }$

Calculations

Nitrogen exist as N₂ at room temperature, thus its molar mass is 2(14)= 28.

Let the rate and molar mass of unknown gas be Rate₂ and M₂ respectively.

Since N₂ effuses 1.7 times as fast as the unknown gas,

Rate₁= 1.7(Rate₂)

$\frac{Rate_1}{Rate_2} = 1.7$

$1. 7 = \sqrt{ \frac{M_2}{28} }$

Square both sides:

$2.89 = \frac{M_2}{28}$

Multiply both sides by 28:

2.89(28)= M₂

M₂= 80.92

Identity of gas

The molar mass of 80.92 lies between Bromine and Krypton. However since Bromine exist as Br₂, the value of it's molar mass would be 159.8 instead. Hence, Bromine is eliminated.

If the gas is a diatomic element, the atomic weight is 80.92 ÷2= 40.46. Thus, we are now considering if Argon could be its identity. However, Argon is a noble gas and will not exist as a diatomic element. Argon is therefore eliminated too.

Thus based on the above reasoning, its probable identity is Krypton.
