Answer:

Attraction between molecules of methane in liquid state is primarily due to "London dispersion force".

Explanation:

Methane is a non-polar and aprotic molecule. Hence there is no dipole moment in methane as well as no chance of hydrogen bonding formation by methane.

We know that all molecules contain electrons. Therefore transient dipole arises in every molecule due to revolution of electrons around nucleus in a non-circular orbit. Hence an weak intermolecular attraction force is always present in every molecule as a result of this which is termed as "London dispersion force".

So, attraction between molecules of methane in liquid state is primarily due to "London dispersion force".

What is the maximum number of moles of nickel carbonate (NiCO3) that can form during the precipitation reaction
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is : 0.025.

Explanation:

The precipitation reaction is as follows in this procedure:

NiSO4.6H20 (aq) + Na2CO3.10H2O (aq)⇒ NiCO3 (s) + Na2SO4 (aq) + 16H2O

So, the number of moles of reactants can be found by

number of moles : mass used/ molar mass

n (NiSO4×6H2O) = (6.57 g)/(262.84 g/mol) = 0.025 mol (for Ni)

n (Na2CO3×10H2O) = (7.15 g)/(286.14 g/mol) = 0.0250 mol (for CO3).

Thus, The maximum number of moles of NiCO3 that can form is 0.025 mol.

If the atmospheric pressure in the laboratory is 1.2 atm, how many moles of gas were in each syringe? (Hint: Choose one volume a
Naily [24]

Answer:

A: 2.525 x 10-4 mol

B: 2.583 x 10-4 mol

Explanation:

Part A:

Data Given:

. Temperature of water (H2O) = 21.3°C

Convert Temperature to Kelvin

T = °C + 273

T = 21.3 + 273 = 294.3 K

volume of (H2O) gaseous state = 5.1 mL

Convert mL to liter

1000 mL = 1L

5.1 ml = 5.1/1000 = 0.0051 L

Pressure = 1.2 atm

. no. of moles = ?

Solution

no. of moles can be calculated by using ideal gas formula

PV = nRT

Rearrange the equation for no. of moles

n=PV/RT......... (1)

where

P = pressure

V = Volume

T= Temperature

n = Number of moles

R = ideal gas constant

where

R = 0.08206 L.atm/ mol. K

Now put the value in formula (1) to calculate no. of moles of

n = 1.2 atm x 0.0051 L / 0.08206 L.atm.mol-1. K-1 x 294.3 K

n = 0.0061 atm.L / 24.162 L.atm.mol-1

n = 2.525 x 10-4 mol

no. of moles of gas (H2O) = 2.525 x 10-4 mol

Part B:

Data Given:

Temperature of water (H2) = 21.3°C

Convert Temperature to Kelvin

T = "C + 273

T= 21.3 + 273 = 294.3 K

volume of (H2) gas = 5.2 mL

Convert mL to liter

1000 mL = 1 L

5.2 ml = 5.2/1000 = 0.0052 L

Pressure = 1.2 atm

. no. of moles = ?

Solution

no. of moles can be calculated by using ideal gas formula

PV = nRT

Rearrange the equation for no. of moles

n= PV / RT......... (1)

where

P = pressure

V = Volume

T= Temperature

n = Number of moles

R = ideal gas constant

where

R = 0.08206 L.atm/mol. K

Now put the value in formula (1) to calculate no. of moles of

n = 1.2 atm x 0.0052 L/0.08206 L.atm.mol-1. K-1 x 294.3 K

n = 0.0062 atm.L/ 24.162 L.atm.mol-1

n = 2.583 x 10-4 mol

I

no. of moles of gas (H2) = 2.583 x 10-4 mol
