Answer:

Similarities: both state the mass of chemical species and they have the same numerical value

Differences: molecular mass refers to one single molecule and molar mass refers to one mole of a molecule

Explanation:

The molecular mass is the value of the mass of each molecule and it is measured in mass units (u). It is calculated adding the mass of each atom of the molecule.

The molar mass is the value of the mass of one mole of molecules, which means the mass of 6.022140857 × 10²³ molecules. The unit is g/mol.

For example, we can consider the methane molecule, which has the chemical formula of CH₄:

Molecular mass CH₄ = C mass + 4 x (H mass)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 12.01 + 4 x (1.01)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 u

Now to calculate the molar mass we multiply the value of the molecular mass by the Avogadro number and convert the units to g/mol:

Molar mass CH₄: 16.05 x $\frac{1}{6.022140857 x 10x^{23} } g$ x 6.022140857 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 g / mol

_______ is the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Kelvin. A. A calorie B. En

Maksim231197 [3]

<h2>The required option d) "specific heat" is correct.</h2>

Explanation:

To raise the temperature of any substance or material of certain mass to respective temperature it requires some amount of heat.
Specific heat is the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of the substance of 1 gram to 1 Kelvin.
It is the amount of heat which is required to raise the temperature per unit mass to per unit temperature.
Thus, the required "option d) specific heat" is correct.

TiliK225 [7]

The molecular structure of 1-nitrobutane is $C_{4} H_{9} NO_{2}$ . The structure of 1-nitrobutane is shown below.

An atom's formal charge would be determined by the covalent model of chemical bonding, which assumes that almost all chemical bonds include equal sharing of electrons among all atoms, regardless their relative electronegativity.

The structure for 1-nitrobutane, making sure to add all non-zero formal charges

There are four kind of molecule present in 1-nitrobutane and they are carbon, hydrogen , nitrogen and oxygen. Nitrogen is bonded with two oxygen atom out of them one oxygen atom is attached with single bond and second oxygen atom is bonded with double bond.

If the molar absorptivity constant for the red dye solution is 5.56×104 M-1cm-1, calculate the molarity of the red dye solution

Shtirlitz [24]

Explanation:

a) Using Beer-Lambert's law :

Formula used :

$A=\epsilon \times c\times l$

where,

A = absorbance of solution = 0.945

c = concentration of solution = ?

l = length of the cell = 1.20 cm

$\epsilon$ = molar absorptivity of this solution = $5.56\times 10^4 M^{-1} cm^{-1}$

$0.945=5.56\times 10^4 M^{-1} cm^{-1}\times 1.20 \times c$

$c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} M=14.16 \mu M$

( $1\mu M=10^{-6} M$ )

14.16 μM is the molarity of the red dye solution at the optimal wavelength 519nm and absorbance value 0.945.

b) $c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} mol/L$

1 L of solution contains $1.4163\times 10^{-5}$ moles of red dye.

Mass of $1.4163\times 10^{-5}$ moles of red dye:

$1.4163\times 10^{-5}\times 879.86g/mol=0.01246 g$

$(w/v)\%=\frac{\text{Mass of solute (g)}}{\text{Volume of solvent (mL)}}\times 100$

$red(w/v)\%=\frac{0.01246 g}{1000 mL}\times 100=0.001246\%$

c) In order to dilute red dye solution by 5 times, we will need to add 1 L of water to solution of given concentration.

Concentration of red dye solution = $c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} M$

Concentration of red solution after dilution = c'

$c=c'\times 5$

$1.4163\times 10^{-5} M=c'\times 5$

$c'=2.83\times 10^{-6} M$

The final concentration of the diluted solution is $2.83\times 10^{-6} M$

Calculate the total energy, in kilojoules, that is needed to turn a 46 g block

neonofarm [45]

Answer: The total energy, in kilojoules, that is needed to turn a 46 g block of ice at -25 degrees C into water vapor at 100 degrees C is 11.787 kJ.

Explanation:

Given: Mass = 46 g

Initial temperature = $-25^{o}C$

Final temperature = $100^{o}C$

Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.05 $J/g^{o}C$

Formula used to calculate the energy is as follows.

$q = m \times C \times (T_{2} - T_{1})$

where,

q = heat energy

m = mass

C = specific heat capacity

$T_{1}$ = initial temperature

$T_{2}$ = final temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$q = m \times C \times (T_{2} - T_{1})\\= 46 g \times 2.05 J/g^{o}C \times (100 - (-25))^{o}C\\= 11787.5 J (1 J = 0.001 kJ)\\= 11.787 kJ$

Thus, we can conclude that the total energy, in kilojoules, that is needed to turn a 46 g block of ice at -25 degrees C into water vapor at 100 degrees C is 11.787 kJ.
