Answer:
When a substance is heated, it gains thermal energy. Therefore, its particles move faster and its temperature rises. When a substance is cooled, it loses thermal energy, which causes its particles to move more slowly and its temperature to drop.
Answer:
Explanation:
You realize that C2H5OH releases -1277.3kJ/mol. We need to convert this to the amount based on the question. We that 22.52g of C2H5OH = 0.48884 mol.
This means that it will release (-1277.3)(0.48884) = 624.40 KJ of heat will be released. Note the negative sign is not necessary here (I think) because it says how much is released and not the change in heat of the system so it should be positive.
Answer:
The minimum volume of the container is 0.0649 cubic meters, which is the same as 64.9 liters.
Explanation:
Assume that ethane behaves as an ideal gas under these conditions.
By the ideal gas law,
,
.
where
is the pressure of the gas,
is the volume of the gas,
is the number of moles of particles in this gas,
is the ideal gas constant, and
is the absolute temperature of the gas (in degrees Kelvins.)
The numerical value of
will be
if
,
, and
are in SI units. Convert these values to SI units:
;
shall be in cubic meters,
;
.
Apply the ideal gas law:
.
