The vapor pressure of methanol is 143 mmhg. identify the best reason to explain why methanol spontaneously evaporates in open ai

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer/Explanation:

Methanol has a molecular weight (32.04 g/mol), low-boiling point and because of its low boiling point, methanol readily evaporates at room temperature.

Under these specified non-standard conditions, the partial pressure of methanol is lower than its vapor pressure and this explains the reason for the spontaneous evaporation exhibited by methanol.

For the reaction H2PO4- HAsO4 2-HPO4 2-+H2AsO4- <br> what species are a conjugate acid-base pair?

aleksklad [387]

Ionic equation:

$\text{H}_2\text{PO}_4^{-} + \text{HAsO}_4^{2-} \to \text{HPO}_4^{2-} + \text{H}_2\text{AsO}_4^{-}$

The acid and base in a conjugate pair differ by only one proton $\text{H}^{+}$ . The acid loses one proton to produce a conjugate base, whereas the base gains a proton to produce its conjugate acid.

$\text{H}_2\text{PO}_4^{-}$ loses one proton to produce $\text{HPO}_4^{2-}$ in this reaction.

$\text{H}_2\text{PO}_4^{-} \to \text{H}^{+} + \text{HPO}_4^{2-}$

Meanwhile, $\text{HAsO}_4^{2-}$ gains one proton to form $\text{H}_2\text{AsO}_4^{-}$ .

$\text{HAsO}_4^{2-} + \text{H}^{+} \to \text{H}_2\text{AsO}_4^{-}$

Therefore

$\text{H}_2\text{PO}_4^{-}$ is the conjugate acid $\text{HPO}_4^{2-}$ , its conjugate base.
$\text{HAsO}_4^{2-}$ is the conjugate base of $\text{H}_2\text{AsO}_4^{-}$ , its conjugate acid.

Based on the article "Will the real atomic model please stand up?,” describe one major change that occurred in the development o

nydimaria [60]

I don't know this article, but I do know some major changes: first, the change from the plum pudding model (no nucleus, just electrons) to the gold foil experiment, which had Rutherford shoot alpha particles at a sheet of gold only to find them rebounding, proving the existence of a positively charged mass, i.e a nucleus, in the atom. However, this changed again when Bohr realized that the negatively charged electrons should be attracted to the positively charged center, so that there must be something else inside the nucleus.

Even though so much energy is required to form a metal cation with a 2+ charge, the alkaline earth metals form halides with gene

nasty-shy [4]

The ∆Hrxn of the reaction is -394.5kJ/mol.

<h3>What is alkaline earth metal? </h3>

The alkaline earth metals are those elements which correspond to group 2 of the modern periodic table.

All elements of this group forms a cation of +2 charge.

The other elements of this group are:

Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, and Radium.

<h3>What is Halogen? </h3>

The Halogen elements are present in group 17 of the modern periodic table.

All elements of this groups forms anions of -1 charge.

The elements of this group are:

Fluorine, Chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.

∆Hrxn = ∆H(bond broken) - ∆H(bond formed)

We have following data of bond energy in kJ/mol:

Mg—Mg = 738

Cl—Cl = -349

Mg—Cl = 783.5

Since, one mole of Mg react with one mole of Cl atom to form one mole of MgCl

∆Hrxn = 738-349-783.5

∆Hrxn = -394.5kJ/mol.

Thus, we concluded that the ∆Hrxn of the reaction is -394.5kJ/mol.
