Answer:

20 mL

Explanation:

<em>The student should record 20 mL as the correct volume.</em>

The curved surface of a liquid that is usually observed in a buret is referred to as the meniscus. This meniscus is created as a result of the surface tension of the liquid against the walls of the buret. <u>Hence, in order to avoid errors due to parallax, the bottom of the meniscus should be read and not the top.</u>

Therefore, the correct volume that the student should record is 20 mL.

Answer:  a)   _{88}^{234}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{86}^{230}\textrm{Ra}+_{2}^{4}\textrm{He}

b)  _{92}^{238}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{93}^{238}\textrm{Np}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

c)  _{92}^{238}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{93}^{238}\textrm{Np}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

e) _{12}^{24}\textrm{Mg}\rightarrow _{12}^{24}\textrm{Mg}+_{0}^{0}{\gamma}

Explanation:

A balanced nuclear equation is one in which the atomic number and mass number remains same on both sides of the equation i.e the number of protons and neutrons remain same.

General representation of an element is given as:  

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

a) _{88}^{234}\textrm{Ra}\rightarrow _{86}^{230}\textrm{Ra}+_{2}^{4}\textrm{He}

b)  _{92}^{238}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{93}^{238}\textrm{Np}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

c)  _{94}^{242}\textrm{Pu}\rightarrow _{92}^{238}\textrm{Ra}+_{2}^{4}\textrm{He}

 d)   _{6}^{14}\textrm{C}\rightarrow _{7}^{14}\textrm{N}+_{-1}^{0}{\beta}

e)   _{12}^{24}\textrm{Mg}\rightarrow _{12}^{24}\textrm{Mg}+_{0}^{0}{\gamma}

Given the equation C3H8(g) + O2(g) = CO2(g) + H2O(g) and that the enthalpies of formation for H2O(g) = -241.8 kJ/mol, CO2(g) = -
kari74 [83]

Answer: 72.4 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

C_3H_8(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(l)  \Delta H=-2220.1kJ/mol

The expression for enthalpy change is,

\Delta H=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(reactant)]

\Delta H=[(n_{CO_2}\times \Delta H_{CO_2})+(n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_{H_2O})]-[(n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_{O_2})+(n_{C_3H_8}\times \Delta H_{C_3H_8})]

where,

n = number of moles

\Delta H_{O_2}=0 (as heat of formation of substances in their standard state is zero

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

-2220.1=[(3\times -393.5)+(4\times -241.8)]-[(5\times 0)+(1\times \Delta H_{C_3H_8})]

\Delta H_{C_3H_8}=72.4kJ/mol

Therefore, the heat of formation of propane is 72.4 kJ/mol

P 4 + 5O 2 P 4 O 10 , 1.5 moles of product was made in 30 seconds. What is the rate of reaction? 0.011 g/min 210 g/min 380 g/min
Airida [17]

Answer: 850.0 g/min.

Explanation:

  • The rate of the reaction = (ΔC/Δt) where,

ΔC is the change in concentration of reactants or products.

Δt is the change in time of the reaction proceeding.

  • The rate is needed to be calculated in (g/min).
  • We need to calculate the amount of the product in (g) via using the relation (n = mass / molar mass).
  • mass (g) = n x molar mass,
  • n = 1.5 moles and molar mass of P₄O₁₀ = 283.88 g/mol.
  • m = 1.5 x 283.88 = 425.82 g.
  • ΔC = 425.82 g and Δt = 30 s / 60 = 0.5 min.
  • The rate of the reaction = ΔC / Δt = (425.82 g / 0.5 min) = 851.64 g/min.

<em>can be approximated to 850.0 g/min.</em>
