Answer:

The second choice: 22 g He will have the greatest volume at STP

Explanation:

Following Avogadro's principle, under ideal condtions, the volume of the gases at the same conditions of temperature, and pressure, is proportional to the number of molecules.

Then, you can calculate the number of molecules for each of the gases to determine which is the sample with the greatest number of molecules and, hence, which will have the greatest volume at STP (standard temperature and pressure).

The formula to calcualte the number of molecules (in moles) is:

n = mass in grams / molar mass

Then, since the mass is the same (22 g) for the four options, the result will be dependent on the molar mass: the gass witht the smallest molar mass will give the largest number of moles for 22 g, and will have the greatest volume.

a) 22 g CO:

Molar mass of CO ≈ 28 g/mol

b) 22 g He:

Molar mass of He ≈ 4.0 g/mol

c) 22 g O₂

Molar mass of O₂ ≈ 32 g/mol

d) 22 g Cl₂

Molar mass of Cl₂ ≈ 71 g/mol

Conclusion: since He has the smallest molar mass, the sample of 22 g of He gas will have the greatest volume at STP.

For the reaction at 298 K, 2NO2(g) N2O4(g) the values of ΔH° and ΔS° are -58.03 kJ and -176.6 J/K, respectively. Calculate the v

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

$\Delta G^o=-5.4032 kJ$

The temperature for $\Delta G^o=0[/tex is [tex]T=328.6 K$

Explanation:

The three thermodinamic properties (enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs's energy) are linked in the following formula:

$\Delta G^o=\Delta H^o + T*\Delta S^o$

Where:

$\Delta G^o$ is Gibbs's energy in kJ

$\Delta H^o$ is the enthalpy in kJ

$\Delta S^o$ is the entropy in kJ/K

$T$ is the temperature in K

Solving:

$\Delta G^o=-58.03 kJ - 298K*-0.1766 kJ/K$

$\Delta G^o=-5.4032 kJ$

For $\Delta G^o=0$ :

$0=\Delta H^o - T*\Delta S^o$

$\Delta H^o= T*\Delta S^o$

$T=\frac{\Delta H^o}{\Delta S^o}$

$T=\frac{-58.03 kJ}{-0.1766 kJ/K}$

$T=328.6 K$

Water is a pure substance. Which of the following is true about water? (4 points) Its compounds can only be physically separated

jonny [76]

Answer:

Water/H20 is a compound made of hydrogen and oxygen. Although water is the most abundant substance on earth, it is rarely found naturally in its pure form. Most of the time, pure water has to be created. Pure water is called distilled water or deionized water.

What type of radioactivity occurs in nuclear reactor if a neutron and uranium are the typical reactants

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Fission. When a large fissile atomic nucleus such as uranium-235 or plutonium-239 absorbs a neutron, it may undergo nuclear fission. The heavy nucleus splits into two or more lighter nuclei, (the fission products), releasing kinetic energy, gamma radiation, and free neutrons.
