Answer:

Explanation:

Rate of effusion is defined by Graham's Law:

(Rate 1/Rate 2) = (sqrt (M2)/ sqrt (M1))

(Where M is the molar mass of each substance. )

Molar Mass of oxygen, O2, is 32 (M1).

Rate of effusion of O2 to an unknown gas is .935(Rate 1).

Rate 2 is unknown so put 1.

Solve for x (M2).

.935/1 = sqrt x/ sqrt32

.935 x sqrt 32 = sqrt x

5.29 = sq rt x

5.29^2 = 27.975 = 28

N2 has a molar mass of 28 so it is the correct gas.

How many sulfur atoms are there in 21.0 g of al2s3?

ValentinkaMS [17]

Given the mass of aluminum sulfide $Al_{2}S_{3}$ = 21.0 g

Molar mass of $Al_{2}S_{3}$ = $2 * Molar mass of Al + 3 *molar mass of S = 2(27g/mol)+3(32.g/mol)=150.g/mol$

Calculating the moles of $Al_{2}S_{3}$ :

$21.0 g *\frac{1 mol}{150 g} = 0.14 mol Al_{2}S_{3}$

Each mole $Al_{2}S_{3}$ has 3 mol S.

Each mole S constitutes $6.022*10^{23} atoms of S$

Calculating atoms of S in 0.14 mol $Al_{2}S_{3}$ :

$0.14 mol Al_{2}S_{3} *\frac{3mol S}{1 mol Al_{2}S_{3} }*\frac{6.022*10^{23}atoms S }{1 mol S}$

= $2.53 * 10^{23} atoms of S$

Which of the following is true when 1 M KCl is diluted to semi-molar KCl?

eimsori [14]

The solution before dilution and after dilution contains same number of moles, and water is added for dilution.

Option B

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Suppose before dilution, the solution contains x moles of KCl in Y liter of water. Now as the concentration got halved, then the solution contains x moles of KCl in 2Y kiters of solution. So the number of moles of KCl in the solution remained constant.

Again, as the solution is diluted to half of the concentration, water must have been added with the solution to make it dilute.

CH2OHCH2OH is a general example of: an ethyl alcohol a methyl alcohol a polyhydroxyl alcohol an organic acid

RoseWind [281]

CH2OHCH2OH is a general example of a polyhydroxyl alcohol. A polyhydroxyl alchol is one in which there are two hydroxyl groups present in the substance. The –OH group attached to both the carbon atoms.
