Answer:

It is not true that S waves change the volume of material by compression and expansion.

Explanation:

S-waves are transverse seismic space waves (waves moving through the interior of the Earth). With S waves, particles vibrate in the material through which the wave moves (the medium) perpendicular to the way of movement of the wave. Shift occurs in the material, from which it can be deduced that S-waves can only move through elastic materials. S-waves therefore do not occur in liquids or gases.

Assuming equal concentrations and complete dissociation, rank these aqueous solutions by their freezing points. nh4cl cobr3 k2so
Illusion [34]
Answer: CoBr3 < K2SO4 < NH4 Cl

Justification:

1) The depression of the freezing point of a solution is a colligative property, which means that it depends on the number of particles of solute dissolved.

2) The formula for the depression of freezing point is:

ΔTf = i * Kf * m

Where i is the van't Hoof factor which accounts for the dissociation of the solute.

Kf is the freezing molal constant and only depends on the solvent

m is the molality (molal concentration).

3) Since, you are assuming equal concentrations and complete dissociation of the given solutes, the solute with more ions in the molecular formula will result  in the solution with higher depression of the freezing point (lower freezing point).

4) These are the dissociations of the given solutes:

a) NH4 Cl (s) --> NH4(+)(aq) + Cl(-) (aq) => 1 mol --> 2 moles

b) Co Br3 (s) --> Co(3+) (aq) + 3Br(-)(aq) => 1 mol --> 4 moles

c) K2SO4 (s) --> 2K(+) (aq) + SO4 (2-) (aq) => 1 mol --> 3 moles

5) So, the rank of solutions by their freezing points is:

CoBr3 < K2SO4 < NH4 Cl

Which of the following is the balanced equation for P + O2 → P2O5? Question 3 options: A) 4P + O2 → 2P2O B) P + 5O2 → 2P2O5 C) 4
Luden [163]

Given equation:

P + O2 → P2O5

In order for the equation to be balanced, the stoichiometry of the atoms of one kind on the reactant side must be equal to that on the product

Reactants                                            Products

P = 1                                                       P = 2

O = 2                                                     O = 5

The balanced equation would be:

4P + 5O2 → 2P2O5

Reactants                                            Products

P = 4                                                      P = 4

O = 10                                                    O = 10

Ans: D)

How much heat in kj is released by burning 9.5 grams of methane?
tatyana61 [14]
Methane is the compound CH4, and burning it uses the reaction:

CH4 + O2 -> CO2 + H2O, which is rather exothermic. To find the heat released by burning a certain amount of the substance, you should look at the bond enthalpy of each compound, and then compare the values before and after the reaction. In methane, there are 4 C-H bonds, which have bond energy of 416 kj/mol, resulting in a total bond energy of 1664 kj/mol. O2 is 494 kj/mol. Therefore we have a total of 2080 kj/mol on the left side. On the right side we have CO2, which has 2 C=O bonds, each at 799 kj/mol each, resulting in 1598 kj/mol, and H2O has 2 O-H bonds, at 459kj/mol each, resulting in a total of 2516 kj/mol on the right hand side. Now, this may be confusing because the left hand side seems to have less heat than the right, but you just need to remember: making minus breaking, which results in a total change of 436kj/mol heat evolved.

Now it is a simple matter of find the mols of CH4 reacted, using n=m/mr.

n = 9.5/16.042 = 0.592195 mol

Therefore, if we reacted 0.592195 mol, and we produced 436 kj for one mol, the total amount of energy evolved was 436*<span>0.592195 kj, or 258.197 kj.</span>
