How much heat is lost when 0.440 mol of steam condenses at 100 °C?
dusya [7]

Answer:

17,890 J

Explanation:

The amount of heat released by a gaseous substance when it condenses is given by the formula

Q=n\lambda_v

where

n is the number of moles of the substance

\lambda_v is the latent heat of vaporization

The formula can be applied if the substance is at its vaporization temperature.

In this problem, we have:

n = 0.440 mol is the number of moles of steam

\lambda_v=40,660 J/mol is the latent heat of vaporization of water

And the steam is already at 100C, so we can apply the formula:

Q=(0.440)(40660)=17,890 J

Write equations to show whether the solubility of either of the following is affected by pH: (b) Hg₂(CN)₂.
nata0808 [166]

<u> Increasing pH will increase the solubility of the Hg2(CN)2 by shifting </u><u>equilibrium </u><u>to right side.</u>

What is the meaning of OH in chemistry?

The chemical group, ion, or radical OH that consists of one atom of hydrogen and one of oxygen and is neutral or negatively charged.

Hg2(CN)2 + 2OH-  ----> 2HgO(s) + 2HCN

adding OH- to the mercury(l) cyanide  will cause the formation of the solid HgO.

therefore increasing pH will increase the solubility of the Hg2(CN)2 by shifting equilibrium to right side.
