Answer : The molar mass of the unknown gas will be 79.7 g/mol


Explanation : To solve this question we can use graham's law;


Now we can use nitrogen as the gas number 2, which travels faster than gas 1;

So, 167 / 99 = 1.687 So the nitrogen gas is 1.687 times faster that the unknown gas 1

We can compare the rates of both the gases;


So here, Rate of gas 2 / Rate of gas 1 = \sqrt{(molar mass 1 / molar mass 2)}

Now, 1.687 = square root [\sqrt{(molar mass 1) / (28.01 g/mol N_{2})} ]


When we square both the sides we get;


2.845 = (molar mass 1) / (28.01 g/mol N2)


On rearranging, we get,


2.845 X (28.01 g/mol N2) = Molar mass 1

So the molar mass of unknown gas will be = 79.7 g/mol

Molecular chlorine and molecular fluorine combine to form a gaseous product. Under the same conditions of temperature and pressu
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

  • Cl F₃

Explanation:

<u>1) Reactants:</u>

The reactants are:

  • <em>Molecular chlorine</em>: this is a gas diatomic molecule, i.e. Cl₂ (g)

  • <em>Molecular fluorine</em>: this is also a gas diatomic molecule: F₂ (g)

<u>2) Stoichiometric coefficients:</u>

  • <em>One volume of Cl₂ react with three volumes of F₂</em> means that the reaction is represented with coefficients 1 for Cl₂ and 3 for F₂. So, the reactant side of the chemical equation is:

        Cl₂ (g) + 3F₂ (g) →

<u>3) Product:</u>

  • It is said that the reaction yields <em>two volumes of a gaseous product;</em> then, a mass balance indicates that the two volumes must contain 2 parts of Cl and 6 parts of F. So, one volume must contain 1 part of Cl and 3 parts of F. That is easy to see in the complete chemical equation:

       Cl₂ (g) + 3F₂ (g) → 2Cl F₃ (g)

        As you see, that last equation si balanced: 2 atoms of Cl and 6 atoms of F on each side, and you conclude that the formula of the product is ClF₃.

When an atom gains an electron, the resulting particle is calledA) a proton.B) an anion.C) a cation.D) an isotope.E) none of the
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

B) an anion

Explanation:

During bonding atoms may share electron or give out electron . In the case of electrovalent or ionic bonding, electron(s) is/are transferred from one atom to another . The atom that donate the electron are known as donor atom and the atom that receives the electron are known as receivers.

The atom that donate the electron becomes a cation(positively charged) as it lose it electron(s) while the receiver gains electron to become an anion which is a negatively charge ion.  

An example of such interaction is between a sodium atom and a chlorine atom.  The Na atom lose it electron to become positively charged(cation) while the chlorine atom gains electron to become negatively charged(anion). Both atom bond together losing and gaining electron to fulfill the octet rule.

Na+  +  Cl-   → NaCl

Why does a permeable rock weather chemically at a fast rate?
ki77a [65]
<span>Water soaks into it easily and during freeze-thaw cycles would be more likely to break apart because of the water freezing and thawing inside the rock. The water freezes and expands inside the rock, causing the surface to break off in flakes from the pressure of the expanding ice inside.</span>
