A 0.708 g sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to the reaction M ( s ) + H 2 SO 4 ( aq ) ⟶ MSO 4

( aq ) + H 2 ( g ) A volume of 275 mL of hydrogen gas is collected over water; the water level in the collecting vessel is the same as the outside level. Atmospheric pressure is 1.0079 bar and the temperature is 25 °C. The vapor pressure of water at 25 °C is 0.03167 bar. Calculate the molar mass of the metal.

Answer:

The metal has a molar mass of 65.37 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the metal = 0.708 grams

Volume of hydrogen = 275 mL = 0.275 L

Atmospheric pressure = 1.0079 bar = 0.9947 atm

Temperature = 25°C

Vapor pressure of water at 25 °C = 0.03167 bar = 0.03126 atm

Step 2: The balanced equation

M(s) + H2SO4(aq) ⟶ MSO4 (aq) + H2(g)

Step 3: Calculate pH2

Atmospheric pressure = vapor pressure of water + pressure of H2

0.9947 atm = 0.03126 atm + pressure of H2

Pressure of H2 = 0.9947 - 0.03126

Pressure of H2 = 0.96344 atm

Step 4: Calculate moles of H2

p*V=n*R*T

⇒ with p = The pressure of H2 = 0.96344 atm

⇒ with V = the volume of H2 = 0.275 L

⇒ with n = the number of moles H2 = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ with T = the temperature = 25°C = 298 Kelvin

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

n = (0.96344 * 0.275)/(0.08206*298)

n = 0.01083 moles

Step 5: Calculate moles of M

For 1 mole of H2 produced, we need 1 mole M

For 0.0108 moles of H2 we need 0.01083 moles of M

Step 6: Calculate molar mass of M

Molar mass M = Mass M / moles M

Molar mass M = 0.708 grams / 0.01083 moles

Molar mass M = 65.37 g/mol

The metal has a molar mass of 65.37 g/mol

Benzene is a starting material in the synthesis of nylon fibers and polystyrene (styrofoam). Its specific heat capacity is 1.74
Leona [35]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The amount of energy released or absorbed is equal the product of the mass, the specific heat capacity and the temperature change. The temperature change being the difference between the final and initial temperature.

Q = mc∆T

Q = heat energy (Joules, J) m = mass of a substance (kg) c = specific heat (units J/g∙K)

∆ is a symbol meaning "the change in" ∆T = change in temperature (Kelvins, K)

From the data provided in the question, we can deduce that:

Q = 16.7KJ = 16,700J

m = 225g

c = 1.74J/g.k

For the temperature, let the final temperature be f. This means our ∆T = f - 20

16,700 = 225 * 1.74 * (f - 20)

16700 = 391.5 (f - 20)

f - 20 = 16700/391.5

f - 20 = 42.7

f = 20 + 42.7 = 62.7

Explain why an atom has a neutral charge​
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Atoms are neutral because they have equal numbers of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). If an atom gains or loses one or more electrons, it becomes an ion.
