Which should be more viscous,polar or non polar

1 answer:

3 0

Viscosity is governed by the strength of intermolecular forces and especially by the shapes of the molecules of a liquid. Liquids whose molecules are polar or can form hydrogen bonds are usually more viscous than similar nonpolar substances.

What is the maximum number of grams of copper that could be produced by the reaction of 30.0 of copper oxide with excess methane

Solnce55 [7]

Answer: 24.13 g Cu

Explanation:

<u>Given for this question:</u>

M of CuO = 30 g

m of CuO = 79.5 g/mol

Number of moles of CuO = (given mass ÷ molar mass) = (30 ÷ 79.5) mol

= 0.38 mol

The max number of CuO (s) that can be produced by the reaction of excess methane can be solved with this reaction:

CuO(s) + CH4(l) ------> H2O(l) + Cu(s) + CO2(g)

The balanced equation can be obtained by placing coefficients as needed and making sure the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms of each element on the product side

4CuO(s) + CH4(l) ----> 2H2O(l) + 4Cu(s) + CO2(g)

From the stoichiometry of the balanced equation:

4 moles of CuO gives 4 moles of Cu

1 mole of CuO gives 1 mol of Cu

0.38 mol of CuO gives 0.38 mol of Cu

Therefore, the grams of Cu that can be produced = 0.38 × molar mass of Cu

= 0.38 × 63.5 g

= 24.13 grams

Therefore, 24.13 grams of copper could be produced by the reaction of 30.0 of copper oxide with excess methane

Ultraviolet radiation and radiation of shorter wavelengths can damage biological molecules because they carry enough energy to b

DIA [1.3K]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Longest wavelength = 343.7 nm

<h3>Solution and Explanation:</h3>

In this question we need to first use the concept of energy of a photon.

Energy of a photon, E, is given by the formula, E = hf, where h is the plank's constant, f is the frequency.

But since, f is given by dividing speed, c, by wavelength, λ, then;

E = hc/λ

We are given 348 kJ/mol required to break carbon-carbon bonds.

We know that; 1 mole of bonds = 6.022 × 10^23 bonds.

We are required to find the longest wavelength with enough energy to break the C-C bonds.

This can be worked out in simple steps:

Step 1: Energy required to break one bond (kJ/bond)

1 mole of bonds = 6.022 × 10^23 bonds.

Therefore;

348 kJ = 6.022 × 10^23 bonds.

Thus;

1 bond = 348 kJ ÷ 6.022 × 10^23 bonds.

= 5.778 x 10^-22 kJ

But; 1000 joules = 1 kJ

Hence; energy per bond = 5.778 x 10^-19 Joules

Step 2: Energy per photon

Breaking one bond requires energy equivalent to energy of a photon.

Therefore;

1 photon = 5.778 x 10^-19 Joules

= 5.778 x 10^-19 J/photon

Step 3: Calculating the wavelength

From the equation of energy of a photon;

E = hc/λ

h is the plank's constant = 6.626 × 10^-34 J/s

c is the speed of light in vacuum = 2.9998 × 10^8 m/s

E is the energy of a photon = 5.778 x 10^-19 Joules

Therefore, making λ (wavelength) the subject;

$wavelength = \frac{hc}{E}$

$= \frac{(6.626 . 10^{-34})(92.9998.10^8) }{(5.778 .10^{-19} )}$

$= 3.437. 10^{-7} m$

= 3.437 x 10^-7 m

But; 1 nm = 10^-9 m

Thus;

wavelength = 343.7 nm

Therefore, the longest wavelength of the radiation will be 343.7 nm
