Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. Instead of melting, solid carbon dioxide sublimes according to the equation: CO2(s)→CO2(g). Whe

n dry ice is added to warm water, heat from the water causes the dry ice to sublime more quickly. The evaporating carbon dioxide produces a dense fog often used to create special effects. In a simple dry ice fog machine, dry ice is added to warm water in a Styrofoam cooler. The dry ice produces fog until it evaporates away, or until the water gets too cold to sublime the dry ice quickly enough. Suppose that a small Styrofoam cooler holds 15.0 L of water heated to 90 ∘C. Calculate the mass of dry ice that should be added to the water so that the dry ice completely sublimes away when the water reaches 28 ?

Answer:

6.82 kg

Explanation:

Given that the amount of water is 15L and we know that the density of water is ≈ 1kg/L. The mass of water is given by mass = volume x density, i.e,

mass = 15 x 1 = 15 kg. Also the specific heat capacity of water is 4.186 KJ/kg.

The sublimation enthalpy of dry ice is 571 KJ/kg.

Now, the amount of heat lost by water is entirely used up for the sublimation (conversion from soild to gas) of dry ice. And the heat (Q) lost by water is given as : Q = mCΔT, where m is the mass of water, C the specific heat capacity of water and ΔT the change in temperature.

Here, Q = 15 x 4.186 x (90 - 28) = 3892.98 KJ.

This amount of heat is taken up by the dry ice for its sublimation. Also the energy taken by dry ice (Q') for its sublimation is given by: Q' = m'L', where m' is the mass of dry ice, L' is the latent heat of sublimation (i.e, the amount of heat required per kg of a substance to sublime) of dry ice amd L' = 571 KJ/kg.

Now, Q' =m'L' = heat lost by water = 3892.98KJ.

And, m'L' = m' x 571 KJ/kg = 3892.98 KJ. (Dividing with 571)

Therefore, m' = 6.82 kg.

Andrews [41]
Each aluminium ion should have a charge of +2, because the sum of oxidation numbers must be zero.

The uncharged aluminium atom must lose two electrons to become an ion with +2 charge.

What are alkenes used to make?
evablogger [386]

Answer:

By far the most important use of alkenes is in the making of plastics as plastics are used in almost everything.

Explanation:

Alkenes themselves aren't used much in everyday life however Alkenes are very important to industrial synthesis as it is relatively easy to turn them into other things.

Alkenes can be turned into polymers or plastics through addition reactions and the most common ethene is turned into everything from plastic bags to bottles.

Alkenes can also be turned into alcohols. most commonly propene is used as a feedstock to produce butanol and other products useful in industry or for production

1: At which temperature would a reaction withΔH = -102 kJ/mol, ΔS = -0.188 kJ/(mol×K) be spontaneous? 2: At which temperature wo
Naddik [55]

Answer:

1: At temperatures below 542.55 K

2: At temperatures above 660 K

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the thermodynamic definition of the Gibbs free energy, it is possible to write the following expression:

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

Whereas ΔG=0 for the spontaneous transition. In such a way, we proceed as follows:

1:

0=\Delta H-T\Delta S\\\\T=\frac{-102kJ/mol}{-0.188kJ/mol-K} \\\\T=542.55K

It means that at temperatures lower than 542.55 K the reaction will be spontaneous.

2:

0=\Delta H-T\Delta S\\\\T=\frac{132kJ/mol}{0.200kJ/mol-K} \\\\T=660K

It means that at temperatures higher than 660 K the reaction will be spontaneous.

Best regards!

Determine the number of valence electrons for the following: [kr] 5s2 4d6
wlad13 [49]

Answer: B) 2 (as indicated by electron distribution shown), but taking into account the real properties of this element, 4,7,8 also occur (see below).

Explanation:

This is the electron complement/atomic number of ruthenium, which actually has the structure [Kr] 5s1 4d7

Nevertheless, Ru does not form Ru(I) compounds and few Ru(II) compounds (RuCl2, RuBr2, RuI2). It also forms Ru(III)Cl3 and a larger number of Ru(IV) compounds, e.g. RuO2, RuS2. It also forms RuO4
