Now they feel it is best to have you identify an unknown gas based on its properties. Suppose 0.508 g of a gas occupies a volume

of 0.175 L at a temperature of 25.0◦C is held at a pressure of 1.000 atm. What gas is this most likely?
Neon
Chlorine
Fluorine
Oxygen
Krypton

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

             mass = 0.508 g,               Volume = 0.175 L

             Temperature = (25 + 273) K = 298 K,       P = 1 atm

As per the ideal gas law, PV = nRT.

where,  n = no. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

Hence, putting all the given values into the ideal gas equation as follows.

               PV = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}} \times RT            

           1 atm \times 0.175 L = \frac{0.508 g}{\text{molar mass}} \times 0.0821 L atm/ K mol \times 298 K  

                            = 71.02 g

As the molar mass of a chlorine atom is 35.4 g/mol and it exists as a gas. So, molar mass of Cl_{2} is 70.8 g/mol or 71 g/mol (approx).

Thus, we can conclude that the gas is most likely chlorine.

The process of ____ occurs when magma, lava, or a solute in a solution becomes a solid and the internal components will arrange
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

D. Crystallization

Explanation:

Let's clarify the irrelevant terms first.

  1. unification: This term has nothing to do with chemistry at all
  2. lithification: When the problem mentions magma and lava, you might think that this term is related to the process here. However, 'lithification' <em>do </em>have a precise meaning in geology. It refers to the process where sediments collapses into one single rock under pressure, which has nothing to do with the process mentioned here.

Now, for 2 terms that might confuse you: 'solidification' and 'crystallization' these also has precise scientific definition

Solidification is defined the process where substances in <em>liquid</em> phase changes its phase to <em>solid</em>. On first glance, this answer might seems correct, and yes, it is correct for this question. But not the <em>most</em> correct.

The keyword here is  

 'the internal components will arrange its self in an  organized pattern.'

Crystallization is a special case of Solidification where the atoms or molecules of liquid solidify by spontaneously arrange themselves in periodic, ordered, and organized pattern. It might or might not happen during solidification depending on cooling rate, viscosity of liquid, and other factors.

So, Crystallization is the most correct answer here.

Differentiate between a precipitate and an aqueous solution
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

A precipate is a solid while an aqueous solution is liquid.

Explanation:

A precipitate is a solid which separates after a chemical reaction occurs. It is the solid product of the reaction.

An aqueous solution is formed when a substance is dissolved in water.

I believe that it is all of the above.

"A Scientific Hypothesis Must Be "Falsifiable". A scientific hypothesis must be testable, but there is a much stronger requirement that a testable hypothesis must meet before it can really be considered scientific."

I hope this helped, have a nice day!
