Answer:

C) How much energy was added to the substance to increase molecule motion?

Explanation:

The most relevant question to ask regarding this change must take into account the physical knowledge about matter.

When matter changes from liquid state to gaseous state, a physical change called evaporation, the particles (molecules or atoms) of the pure substance will separate from each other, take up more space and move faster.

Condensation is the opposite to evaporation, thus the option A) is not the most relevant question.

The charge of the particles does not change; so the option B) is not relevant at all.

The particles should gain energy from the surroundings to increase their motion (kinetic energy) when they pass from liquid state, where they move slower, to gas state, where they move faster. Hence, the option C), How much energy was added to the substance to increase molecule motion? , is totally relevant.

Since this is an increase in the kinetic energy of the molecules, the option D) is not relevant.

What is the oxidation number of cl− in the hypochlorite ion clo−?

mariarad [96]

Answer : The oxidation number of chlorine (Cl) is, (+1)

Explanation :

Oxidation number : It represent the number of electrons lost or gained by the atoms of an element in a compound.

Oxidation numbers are generally written with the sign (+) and (-) first and then the magnitude.

When the atoms are present in their elemental state then the oxidation number will be zero.

Rules for Oxidation Numbers :

The oxidation number of a free element is always zero.

The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.

The oxidation number of Hydrogen (H) is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electronegative elements.

The oxidation number of oxygen (O) in compounds is usually -2, but it is -1 in peroxides.

The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.

The oxidation number of a Group 2 element in a compound is +2.

The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.

The sum of the oxidation numbers of all of the atoms in a neutral compound is zero.

The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is equal to the charge of the ion.

The given compound is, $ClO^-$

Let the oxidation state of 'Cl' be, 'x'

$x+(-2)=-1\\\\x-2=-1\\\\x=+1$

Therefore, the oxidation number of chlorine (Cl) is, (+1)

Naphthalene, commonly found in moth balls, is composed of 93.7% carbon and 6.3% hydrogen. The molar mass of naphthalene is 128 g

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Molecular formula naphthalene → C₁₀H₈

Empirical formula naphthalene → C₅H₄

Explanation:

Centesimal composition means that in 100 g of compound we have x g of the element. Therefore in 100 g of naphthalene we have:

93.7 g of C

6.3 g of H

Let's make a rule of three:

In 100 g of naphthalene we have 93.7 g of C and 6.3 g of H

In 128 g of naphthalene we would have:

128 . 93.7 / 100 = 120 g of C

128. 6.3 / 100 = 8 g of H

We convert the mass to moles, by molar mass:

120 g . 1mol / 12 g = 10 moles C

8 g . 1mol/ 1g = 8 moles H

Molecular formula naphthalene → C₁₀H₈

Empirical formula naphthalene → C₅H₄

(The sub-index of each element is divided by the largest possible number)

If 10.62 mL of a standard 0.3330 M KOH solution reacts with 98.20 mL of CH3COOH solution, what is the molarity of the acid solut

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

0.036 M of $CH_{3} COOH$

Explanation:

It is an example of acid-base neutralization reaction.

KOH + $CH_{3} COOH$ ----> $CH_{3} COO^{-} K^{+}$ + $H_{2}O$

Base Acid Salt

When two component react then the number of moles of both the component should be same, therefore the number of moles and acids and bases should be the same in the following .

Molarity= $\frac{\textrm{No. of Moles}}{\textrm{Volume of the Particular Solution}}$
