Use ideal gas law PV=nRT. The pressure, number of moles, and gas constant are unchanged. Rearrange ideal gas law to get n= PV1/RT1= PV2/RT2 now you can cancel out P and R to get V1/T1 = V2/T2 you know V1= 2.55 L, V2= 1.75 L, T2= 16 degC, you can solve for T1( the initial temperature).

How much energy is required to convert 100.0 g of water completely<br> to steam?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

<u>225.6 kJ</u>, <em>assuming the water is already at 100 °C</em>

Explanation:

The correct answer to this question will depend on the initial temperature of the water to which heat is added to produce steam.  Energy is required to raise the water temperature to 100°C.  At that point, an energy of vaporization is needed to convert liquid water at 100 °C to water vapor at 100°C.  The heat of vaporization for water is 2256.4 kJ/kg.  The energy required to bring 100g of water from a lower temperature to 100°C is calculated at 4.186 J/g°C.  We don't know the starting temperature, so this step cannot be calculated.

<em><u>Assuming</u></em> that we are already at 100 °C, we can calculate the heat required for vaporization:

(100.0g)(1000.0g/1 kg)(2256.4 kJ/kg) = 225.6 kJ for 100 grams water.

Why is carbon ideal for making different compounds?
In-s [12.5K]

Carbon is the only element that can form so many different compounds because each carbon atom can form four chemical bonds to other atoms, and because the carbon atom is just the right, small size to fit in comfortably as parts of very large molecules.
