Answer:

This is because the pressure will build so up so much that the can will burst (and explode if there is a naked flame nearby) the gas pressure increases. more of the liquefied propellant turns into a gas.

This is Boyle's Law. It states pressure and volume have an inverse relationship.

Answer:

The gas inside the can and the can’s volume are both constant.

The gas pressure increases with increasing temperature.

The can will burst if the pressure becomes great enough.

The gas law that applies is Gay-Lussac’s law.

Hess law can help us to obtain the enthalpy of a series of reactions by summation. The missing enthalpy of this reaction is −198kJ.

According to the Hess law of constant heat summation, the enthalpy of a sequence of reactions can be obtained as the sum of the enthalpies of all the reactions.

Now looking at all the reavtion written here in order to obtain the missing enthalpy, we conclude that the missing enthalpy is −198kJ.

A student performs an experiment to determine the molar mass of magnesium oxide. The student repeats the experiment five times a

Answer:

Percent relative error = 0.191%

Explanation:

Relative error is a measure of accuracy (How closeness is the measure to the accepted value) for a determined data. The formula is:

Percent relative error = |Experimental - Accepted| / Accepted * 100

<em>Where experimental is the average of the data:</em>

(40.220g/mol + 40.654g/mol + 40.314g/mol + 40.165g/mol + 40.554g/mol) / 5 =

40.381g/mol

Replacing using accepted value = 40.304g/mol:

|40.381g/mol - 40.304g/mol| / 40.304g/mol * 100

<h3>Percent relative error = 0.191%</h3>

Use the provided reduction potentials to calculate ArGº for the following balanced redox reaction: Pb2+(aq) + Cu(s) → Pb(s) + Cu

nydimaria [60]

Answer : The correct option is, +91 kJ/mole

Solution :

The balanced cell reaction will be,

$Cu(s)+Pb^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq)+Pb(s)$

Here copper (Cu) undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. Lead (Pb) undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

First we have to calculate the standard electrode potential of the cell.

$E^0_{[Pb^{2+}/Pb]}=-0.13V$

$E^0_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}=+0.34V$

$E^0_{cell}=E^0_{cathode}-E^0_{anode}$

$E^0_{cell}=E^0_{[Pb^{2+}/Pb]}-E^0_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}$

$E^0_{cell}=-0.13V-(0.34V)=-0.47V$

Now we have to calculate the standard Gibbs free energy.

Formula used :

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy = ?

n = number of electrons = 2

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C/mole

$E^o$ = standard e.m.f of cell = -0.47 V

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the Gibbs free energy.

$\Delta G^o=-(2\times 96500\times (-0.47))=+90710J/mole=+90.71kJ/mole\approx +91kJ/mole$

Therefore, the standard Gibbs free energy is +91 kJ/mole

Draw the product(s) that are expected when tert-butyl bromide undergoes solvolysis in isopropanol, (CH3)2CHOH.

N76 [4]

Those reactions in which Alkyl Halide reacts with the solvent without the involvement of any acid or base is called as Solvolysis. In given problem <em>tert</em>-Butyl Bromide is a tertiary Alkyl Halide and we know well that tertiary alkyl halides undergo SN¹ and E¹ elimination reaction due to the formation of stable tertiary carbocation. In given example after the formation of carbocation when Isopropyl act as nucleophile it will produce ether and when it acts as a base it will produce unsaturated compound. The reaction along with both products is shown below,
