Answer:

2.16 moles are lost from the container

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Moles of acetylene = 3.86 moles

Volume = 39.2 L

The volume reduces to 17.3 L

Temperature and pressure is constant

Step 2: Calculate the new number of moles acetylene

V1/ n1 = V2/ n2

⇒with V1 = the initial volume in the container = 39.2 L

⇒with n1 = the initial number of moles acetylene = 3.86 moles

⇒with V2 = the new volume in the container after the leak = 17.3 L

⇒with n2 : the new number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

39.2 L / 3.86 moles = 17.3 L / n2

n2 = 1.70 moles

Step 3: Calculate the loss of moles

Loss of moles = 3.86 - 1.70 = 2.16 moles

2.16 moles are lost from the container

\frac{V_{1} }{n_{1} } =\frac{V_{2} }{n_{2} } where V₁ is a volume, <em>n</em>₁ is a number in moles, V₂ is a second volume, and <em>n</em>₂ is its corresponding number in moles.

In our data:

  • <em>n</em>₁ = 3.86 mol C₂H₂
  • V₁ = 39.2 L
  • V₂= 17.3 L
  • <em>n</em>₂ = ?

Let's plug our values in the equation above.

\frac{39.2}{3.86} =\frac{17.3}{n} \\\\10.2=\frac{17.3}{n} \\\\10.2n=17.3\\\\n=1.70

Note: You could rearrange the equation before plugging in values for less algebraic manipulation.

We're not done yet.  Now, you have to subtract this number of moles from the initial value to find the difference, since the question states "how many moles...have been lost".

3.86-1.70=2.16

<h3>Answer:</h3>

2.16 moles would have been lost

What is the total number of calories of heat energy absorbed when 10 grams of water is vaporized at its normal boiling point
Darya [45]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of energy absorbed by water is 5390 Calories

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the amount of heat absorbed at normal boiling point, we use the equation:

q=m\times L_{vap}

where,

q = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of water = 10 grams

L_{vap} = latent heat of vaporization = 539 Cal/g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

q=10g\times 539Cal/g=5390Cal

Hence, the amount of energy absorbed by water is 5390 Calories

A sample of mass 6.814 grams is added to another sample weighing 0.08753 grams.
Feliz [49]

Answer:

17.5609g

Explanation:

According to the question, a sample of mass 6.814 grams is added to another sample weighing 0.08753 grams. That is weight of sample 1 + weight of sample 2;

6.814 + 0.08753 = 6.90153grams

Next, the subsequent mixture is then divided into exactly 3 equal parts i.e. 6.90153grams divided by 3

= 6.90153/3

= 2.30051grams.

One of the equal parts is 2.30051grams, which is then multiplied by 7.6335 times I.e. 2.30051 × 7.6335 = 17.5609grams

Therefore, the final mass is 17.5609grams

Answer:

Missing component

Cl₂

H₂O

Explanation:

Reaction given:

? + 2NaBr → 2NaCl+Br

Mg+? → MgO+H2

missing component = ?

Solution:

Reaction 1

             ? + 2NaBr -----→ 2NaCl + Br

if we look at the reactants and products there is one element is in product side but not shown in the reactant side.

In products there are following atoms

Na (Sodium)

Cl (Chlorine)

Br (Bromine)

In Reactant there are following atoms

Na (Sodium)

Br (Bromine)

So only Chlorine is missing in the reactant side.

if we put chlorine in the reactant then this reaction will be complete

        Cl + 2 NaBr -----→ 2NaCl + Br

So chlorine react with water and give sodium chloride and bromine molecule, this is a single displacement reaction and chlorine replace bromine in the above reaction

Now balance the equation

          Cl₂ + 2 NaBr -----→ 2NaCl + Br₂

So, the missing component is

  • Cl₂

____________

Reaction 2

                Mg + ? ---------→ MgO + H₂

if we look at the reactants and products there are two element in product side but not shown in the reactant side.

In products there are following atoms

Mg (Magnesium)

O (Oxygen)

H (Hydrogen)

In Reactant there is only one following atom

Mg (Magnesium)

So Oxygen and Hydrogen is missing in the reactant side.

if we put water molecule (H₂O) in the reactant then this reaction will be complete

          Mg + H₂O ---------→ MgO + H₂

in this reaction magnesium (Mg) react with water (H₂O) and give magnesium oxide and hydrogen gas.

So, the missing component is

  • H₂O
