List the three states of matter and give two different examples of matter in each state

A student would like to determine how heating a liquid changes its volume. The student hypothesizes that the liquid will increas

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The volume of the liquid should be measured before it is heated.

Explanation:

Because During an experiment to test how a variable changes a substance, it is important to first observe and record the characteristics of the substance before the variable is introduced. In this case, the variable is heat energy.

Problem PageQuestionSteam reforming of methane ( ) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas,

Serhud [2]

The question is incomplete. Her eis the complete question.

Steam reforming methane (CH4) produces "synthesis gas", a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas, which is the starting point for many important industrial chemical syntheses. An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 125L tank with 20 mol of methane gas and 10 mol of water vapor at 38°C. He then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the amount of gas hydrogen to be 18 mol. Calculate the concentration equilibrium constant for the steam reforming of methane at the final temperature of the mixture. Round your answer to significant digits.

Answer: $K_{c}$ = 2. $10^{-2}$

Explanation: The reaction for steam reforming methane is:

$CH_{4} + H_{2}O$ ⇒ $CO_{} + 3H_{2}$

To calculate the concentration equilibrium constant, first calculate the molarity ( $\frac{mol}{L}$ ) of each molecule of the reaction.

At 38°C: At the initial temperature, there no products yet

Molarity of CH4:

CH4 = $\frac{20}{125}$ = 0.16M

Molarity of H20:

H2O = $\frac{10}{125}$ = 0.08M

At final temperature:

Molarity of H2:

H2 = $\frac{18}{125}$ = 0.144M

According to the chemical reaction, the combination of 1 mol of each reagents produces 1 mol of CO and 3 mols of H2, so, for the products, the ratio is 1:3.

Molarity of CO:

CO = $\frac{0.144}{3}$ = 0.048M

For the reagents, the proportion is 1:1, but they had an initial concentration, so, when in equilibrium, the concentration will be:

Molarity of CH4:

CH4 = 0.16 - 0.048 = 0.112M

Molarity of H2O:

H20 = 0.08 - 0.048 = 0.032M

The equilibrium constant is given by:

$K_{c} = \frac{[CO][H_{2}]^{3} }{[CH_{4}][H_{2}O ] }$

$K_{c}$ = $\frac{0.048.0.144^{3} }{0.112.0.032}$

$K_{c}$ = 2. $10^{-2}$

The concentration equilibrium constant for the process is $K_{c}$ = 2. $10^{-2}$ .

How many grams of ethane gas (C2H6) are in a 12.7 liter sample at 1.6 atmospheres and 24°C? Show all work used to solve this pro

dexar [7]

n = PV/RT

p = 1.6 atm

v = 12.7L

R = 0.0821

T = 24°C which is equivalent to 297.15 degrees k

n = (16 × 12.7) / (0.0821 × 297.15)

n = 20.32 / 24.39

n = 0.83 mol

C = 12.90

H = 1.0079

C2 = 12.010 × 2 = 24.02

H6 = 1.0079 × 6 = 6.0474

C2H6 = 30.0674

Ethane times n which is 30.0674 × 0.83mol

= 24.95 grams of C2H6. Which is Ethane.

Why is some amount of cryolite added in the electrolysis of molten alumina

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

A.It lowers the melting point of alumina. B.It increases the electrical conductivity. ... Hint: The solution of alumina and cryolite during the electrolysis gives the aluminium at cathode and oxygen at anode. The alumina is a poor conductor of electricity and the fusion temperature of alumina is about 2000∘C.
