Answer:

<em>molar mass of the phosphorus chloride = 138.06 g/mol</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

<em>mass of phosphorus will be the same as mass of CO2, since it is stated that they are of equal amount.</em>

mass = 3.51 g

<em>lets assume that it took the CO2 1 sec to effuse, then the time taken by the phosphorus chloride will be 1.77 sec</em>

From this we can say that

rate of effusion of CO2 = 3.51/1 = 3.51 g/s

rate of effusion of the phosphorus chloride = 3.51/1.77 = 1.98 g/s

<em>From graham's equation of effusion</em>,

\frac{Rc}{Rp} = \sqrt{\frac{Mp\\}{Mc} }

Rc = rate of effusion of CO2 = 3.51 g/s

Rp = rate of effusion of phosphorus chloride = 1.98 g/s

Mc = molar mass of CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Mp = molar mass of the phosphorus chloride = ?

Imputing values into the equation, we have

\frac{3.51}{1.98} = \sqrt{\frac{Mp\\}{44.01} }

1.77 = \frac{\sqrt{Mp} }{6.64}

11.75 = \sqrt{Mp}

Mp = 11.75^{2}

Mp = <em>molar mass of the phosphorus chloride = 138.06 g/mol</em>

A gaseous mixture of O2 and N2 contains 37.8% nitrogen by mass. What is the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the tot
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer: The partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the total pressure is 525 mmHg is 310 mm Hg

Explanation:

mass of nitrogen = 37.8 g

mass of oxygen = (100-37.8) g = 62.2 g

Using the equation given by Raoult's law, we get:

p_A=\chi_A\times P_T

p_{O_2} = partial pressure of O_2 = ?

\chi_{O_2} = mole fraction of O_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }O_2}{\text{Total moles}}

P_{T} = total pressure of mixture  = 525 mmHg

{\text{Moles of }O_2}=\frac{\text {Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{62.2g}{32g/mol}=1.94moles

{\text{Moles of }N_2}=\frac{\text {Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{37.8g}{28g/mol}=1.35moles

Total moles = 1.94 + 1.35 = 3.29 moles

\chi_{O_2}=\frac{1.94}{3.29}=0.59

p_{O_2}=\chi_{O_2}\times P_T=0.59\times 525=310mmHg

Thus the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the total pressure is 525 mmHg is 310 mm Hg

Explain what makes insulative materials work most effectively.
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Most common insulation materials work by slowing conductive heat flow and--to a lesser extent--convective heat flow. Radiant barriers and reflective insulation systems work by reducing radiant heat gain. To be effective, the reflective surface must face an air space.

Explanation:

To be effective, the reflective surface must face an air space.

A student who is performing this experiment pours an 8.50 mL sample of the saturated borax solution into a 10 mL graduated cylin
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

ksp = 0,176

Explanation:

The borax (Na₂borate) in water is in equilibrium, thus:

Na₂borate(s) ⇄ borate²⁻(aq) + 2Na⁺(aq)

<em>When you add just borax, the moles of Na²⁺ are twice the moles of borate²⁻, that means 2borate²⁻=Na⁺ </em><em>(1)</em>

The ksp is defined as:

<em>ksp = [borate²⁻] [Na⁺]²</em>

Then, borate²⁻(B₄O₇²⁻) reacts with HCl thus:

B₄O₇²⁻ + 2HCl + 5H₂O → 4H₃BO₃ + 2Cl⁻

The moles of HCl that reacts with B₄O₇²⁻ are:

0,500M×0,01200L = 6,00x10⁻³ mol of HCl

As two moles of HCl react with 1 mol of B₄O₇²⁻, the moles of B₄O₇²⁻ are:

6,00x10⁻³ mol of HCl×\frac{1molB_{4}O_{7}^{2-}}{2molHCl} = <em>3,00x10⁻³ mol of B₄O₇²⁻</em>

For (1), moles of Na⁺ are <em>3,00x10⁻³ mol ×2 = 6,00x10⁻³ mol of Na⁺</em>

The [borate²⁻] is <em>3,00x10⁻³ mol of B₄O₇²⁻/0,00850L = </em><em>0,353M</em>

And [Na⁺] is <em>6,00x10⁻³ mol of Na⁺ / 0,00850L = </em>0,706M

Replacing in the expression of ksp:

ksp = [0,353] [0,706]²

<em>ksp = 0,176</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
