Katyanochek1 [597]3 years ago
5 0


in the chemistry , the law of definite proportions , sometimes called Proust's law or the law of definite composition states that a chemical compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by mass.

law of constant composition- all samples of a given chemical compound have the same elemental composition

Arte-miy333 [17]

We have that the the liquid is

  • C_2H_5OH (ethanol
  • And at a condition of H_2SO4 as catalyst and temp 170

From the question we are told

  • A student wished to prepare <em>ethylene </em>gas by <em>dehydration </em>of ethanol at 140oC using sulfuric acid as the <em>dehydrating </em>agent.
  • A low-boiling liquid was obtained instead of ethylene.
  • What was the liquid, and how might the reaction conditions be changed to give ethylene

<h3>Ethylene formation</h3>

Generally the equation is

2C_2H_5OH------CH3CH_2O-CH_2CH_3+H_20

Therefore

with ethanol at 140oC

The product is diethyl ethen

The reaction at 170 ethylene will give

C_2H_5OH-------CH_2=CH_2+H_2O( at a condition of H_2SO4 as catalyst and temp 170)

Therefore

The the liquid is

  • C_2H_5OH (ethanol

Choose the thermochemical equation that illustrates ΔH°f for Li2SO4. Choose the thermochemical equation that illustrates ΔH°f fo
Deffense [45]

Answer:

2Li(s) + ⅛S₈(s, rhombic) + 2O₂(g) → Li₂SO₄(s)  

Explanation:

A thermochemical equation must show the formation of 1 mol of a substance from its elements in their most stable state,.

The only equation that meets those conditions is the last one.

A and B are wrong , because they show Li₂SO₄ as a reactant, not a product.

C is wrong because Li⁺ and SO₄²⁻ are not elements.

D is wrong because it shows the formation of 8 mol of Li₂SO₄.

A certain liquid X has a normal boiling point of 133.60°C and a boiling point elevation constant Kb= 2.46°C kg mol^-1.Calculate
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

136.63 °C

Explanation:

ΔTb=Tb solution - Tb pure

Where; Tb pure = 133.60°C

molar mass of solute = 121.14 g/mol

number of moles of solute; 52.2g/121.14 g/mol = 0.431 moles

molality = 0.431 moles/350 * 10^-3 = 1.23 molal

Then;

ΔTb = Kb * m * i

Kb = 2.46°C kg mol^-1

m = 1.23 molal

i = 1

ΔTb = 2.46 * 1.23 * 1

ΔTb = 3.03 °C

Hence;

Tb solution = ΔTb + Tb pure

Tb solution = 3.03 °C + 133.60°C

Tb solution = 136.63 °C
