Water's high heat capacity<span> is a property caused by hydrogen bonding among </span>water<span> molecules. When </span>heat<span> is absorbed, hydrogen bonds are broken and </span>water <span>molecules </span>can<span> move freely. When the temperature of </span>water decreases, the hydrogen bonds are formed and release a considerable amount of energy.
<span>Water's heat of vaporization is around 540 cal/g at </span>100 °C<span>, water's boiling point.

You mix 265.0 mL of 1.20 M lead(II) nitrate with 293 mL of 1.55 M potassium iodide. The lead(II) iodide is insoluble. What amoun
slava [35]

Answer:

105 grams PbI₂

Explanation:

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2KI => 2KNO₃ + PbI₂(s)

moles Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.265L(1.2M) = 0.318 mole

moles KI = 0.293(1.55M) = 0.454 mole => Limiting Reactant

moles PbI₂ from mole KI in excess Pb(NO₃)₂ = 1/2(0.454 mole) = 0.227 mol PbI₂

grams PbI₂ = 0.227 mol PbI₂ x 461 g/mole = 104.68 g ≈ 105 g PbI₂(s)
