Missing question: 
<span>(1) C2H5OH (3) C12H22O11
(2) C6H12O6 (4) CH3COOH.

Answer is: 4) CH</span>₃COOH, acetic acid.
In water, acetic acid dissociates on ions, so it can conduct electricity:
CH₃COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
When we put electrodes (cathode and anode) in acetic acid solution, positive and negative ions migrate to electrodes.<span>
Negative acetate ions go to positive electrode and gives electrons to electrode.
<span>Positive hydrogen ions go to negative electrode and gain electrons.</span></span>

Determine the volume, in liters, occupied by 0.015 molecules of oxygen at STp?
Arlecino [84]

5.58 X 10^{-25} Litres is the volume, in liters, occupied by 0.015 molecules of oxygen at STP.

Explanation:

Data given:

molecules of oxygen = 0.015

number of moles of oxygen =?

temperature at STP = 273  K

Pressure at STP = 1 atm

volume = ?

R (gas constant) = 0.08201 L atm/mole K

to convert molecules to moles,

number of moles = \frac{molecules}{Avagadro's number}

number of moles = 2.49 x 10^{-26}

Applying the ideal gas law since the oxygen is at STP,

PV = nRT

rearranging the equation:

V = \frac{nRT}{P}

putting the values in the rearranged equation:

V = \frac{2.49 X10^{-26}   X 0.08201 X 273}{1}

V = 5.58 X 10^{-25} Litres.

Consider the reaction PCl5(g) ⇌ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g). If 0.02 moles of PCl5, 0.04 moles of PCl3, and 0.08 moles of Cl2 are combined
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The reaction quotient (Q) before the reaction is 0.32

Explanation:

Being the reaction:

aA + bB ⇔ cC + dD

Q=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b}  }

where Q is the so-called reaction quotient and the concentrations expressed in it are not those of the equilibrium but those of the different reagents and products at a certain instant of the reaction.

The concentration will be calculated by:

Concentration=\frac{number of moles of solute}{Volume}

You know  the reaction:

PCl₅ (g) ⇌ PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g).

So:

Q=\frac{[PCl_{3} ] *[Cl_{2} ] }{[PCl_{5} ]}

The concentrations are:

  • [PCl₃]=\frac{0.04 moles}{0.5 L} =0.08 \frac{moles}{L}
  • [Cl₂]=\frac{0.08 moles}{0.5 L} =0.16 \frac{moles}{L}
  • [PCl₅]=\frac{0.02 moles}{0.5 L} =0.04 \frac{moles}{L}

Replacing:

Q=\frac{0.08*0.16}{0.04}

Solving:

Q= 0.32

a 4.50 g coin of copper absorbed 54 calories of heat. what was the final temperature of the copper if the initial temperature wa
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Final temperature =  T₂ = 155.43 °C

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Given data:

Mass of coin = 4.50 g

Heat absorbed = 54 cal

Initial temperature = 25 °C

Specific heat of copper = 0.092 cal/g °C

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

Q = m.c. ΔT

ΔT = T₂ -T₁

Q = m.c. T₂ -T₁

54 cal = 4.50 g × 0.092 cal/g °C ×  T₂ -25  °C

54 cal = 0.414 cal/ °C ×  T₂ -25  °C

54 cal /0.414 cal/ °C =  T₂ -25  °C

130.43 °C  =  T₂ -25 °C

130.43 °C + 25 °C = T₂

155.43 °C = T₂
