Ice melting from water. Nothing has changed except the state of matter.
Answer:At the molecular level, the pressure of a gas depends on the number of collisions its molecules have with the walls of the container. If the pressure on the piston is doubled, the volume of the gas decreases by one-half. The gas molecules, now confined in a smaller volume, collide with the walls of the container twice as often and their pressure once again equals that of the piston.
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
Mass of Ag = 1.67 g
Mass of Cl = 2.21 g
Heat evolved = 1.96 kJ
<u>To determine:</u>
The enthalpy of formation of AgCl(s)
<u>Explanation:</u>
The reaction is:
2Ag(s) + Cl2(g) → 2AgCl(s)
Calculate the moles of Ag and Cl from the given masses
Atomic mass of Ag = 108 g/mol
# moles of Ag = 1.67/108 = 0.0155 moles
Atomic mass of Cl = 35 g/mol
# moles of Cl = 2.21/35 = 0.0631 moles
Since moles of Ag << moles of Cl, silver is the limiting reagent.
Based on reaction stoichiometry: # moles of AgCl formed = 0.0155 moles
Enthalpy of formation of AgCl = 1.96 kJ/0.0155 moles = 126.5 kJ/mol
Ans: Formation enthalpy = 126.5 kJ/mol
The element neon, in period 2, has the most mass.
