<h3>As fluorine sits atop chlorine in the periodic table, most people expect it to have the highest electron affinity, but this is not the case. ... Therefore, chlorine has a higher electron affinity than fluorine, and this orbital structure causes it to have the highest electron affinity of all of the elements.</h3>
Answer:
Before we get into the first law of thermodynamics we need to understand the relation between heat and work and the concept of internal energy. Just like mass, energy is always conserved i.e. it can neither be created nor destroyed but it can be transformed from one form to another. Internal energy is a thermodynamic property of the system that refers to the energy associated with the molecules of the system which includes kinetic energy and potential energy.
Whenever a system goes through any change due to interaction of heat, work and internal energy, it is followed by numerous energy transfer and conversions. However, during these transfers, there is no net change in the total energy.
Similarly, if we look at the first law of thermodynamics it affirms that heat is a form of energy. What it means is that the thermodynamic processes are governed by the principle of conservation of energy. The first law of thermodynamics is also sometimes referred to as the Law of Conservation of Energy
Explanation:
Q1)
firstly we need to determine the empirical formula of the compound. empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components in the compound.
percentages of the elements have been given, so lets assume we are calculating for a compound of 100g
C H O
mass 63.13 g 8.830 g 28.03 g
molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
number of moles 63.13/12 8.830/1 28.03/16
5.26 8.830 1.75
divide by the smallest number of moles
5.26/1.75 8.830/1.75 1.75/1.75
= 3.01 = 5.04 =1
rounded off to the nearest whole numbers
C - 3
H - 5
O - 1
therefore empirical formula = C₃H₅O
Q2)
we have to next determine the molecular formula of the compound
molecular formula gives the actual composition of elements in the compound.
since we know the empirical formula and molecular mass, we can find how many empirical units are in the molecular formula.
mass of empirical unit = Cx3 + Hx5 + Ox1
= 12 g/mol x 3 + 1g/mol x 5 + 16 g/mol x 1
= 36 + 5 + 16 = 57 g/mol
the molecular mass = 228 g/mol
then number of empirical units in the molecular formula = 228 / 57 = 4
therefore there are 4 empirical units
then the molecular formula = 4 x empirical formula =4 (C₃H₅O)
molecular formula = C₁₂H₂₀O₄
