Answer:

The answer to your question is letter B, 2-methylhexane.

Explanation:

Remember that for naming organic compounds first, we need to look for the largest chain of carbons.

In your example, the largest chain is horizontal and has 6 carbons.

Later, we need to circle all the branches, in your example there is only one branch located close to the left side

After that, we number the carbons of the main chain, starting in the corner with more branches, in your example we start from the first carbon on the left.

Finally, start naming the number of the carbon branch, later hte name of the branch and finally the name of the main chain.

The vapor pressure of water is 1.00 atm at 373 K, and the enthalpy of vaporization is 40.68 kJ mol!. Estimate the vapor pressure

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The vapor pressure at temperature 363 K is 0.6970 atm

The vapor pressure at 383 K is 1.410 atm

Explanation:

To calculate $\Delta H_{vap}$ of the reaction, we use clausius claypron equation, which is:

$\ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]$

where,

$P_1$ = vapor pressure at temperature $T_1$

$P_2$ = vapor pressure at temperature $T_2$

$\Delta H_{vap}$ = Enthalpy of vaporization

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

1) $\Delta H_{vap}=40.68 kJ/mol=40680 J/mol$

$T_1$ = initial temperature =363 K

$T_2$ = final temperature =373 K

$P_2=1 atm, P_1=?$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\ln(\frac{1 atm}{P_1})=\frac{40680 J/mol}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{363}-\frac{1}{373}]$

$P_1=0.69671 atm \approx 0.6970 atm$

The vapor pressure at temperature 363 K is 0.6970 atm

2) $\Delta H_{vap}=40.68 kJ/mol=40680 J/mol$

$T_1$ = initial temperature =373 K

$T_2$ = final temperature =383 K

$P_1=1 atm, P_2?$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\ln(\frac{P_2}{1 atm})=\frac{40680 J/mol}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{373}-\frac{1}{383}]$

$P_2=1.4084 atm \approx 1.410 atm$

The vapor pressure at 383 K is 1.410 atm

A 46.9 gram sample of a substance has a volume of about 3.5 centimeters3. It is solid at a room temperature of 23ºC. Out of the

Masteriza [31]

Answer:- C. Hafnium.

Solution:- Mass of the sample is 46.0 g and it's volume is $3.5cm^3$ .

From mass and volume, we can calculate it's density using the formula:

$density=\frac{mass}{volume}$

$density=\frac{46.9g}{3.5cm^3}$

$density=\frac{13.4g}{cm^3}$

On the basis of the density, this substance could either be mercury or hafnium. Since the substance is a solid at room temperature where as mercury is liquid. So, it can't be mercury.

The right choice is C) Hafnium.
