Answer:

B) 2

Explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

The rule apply for the multiplication and division is :

The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

The rule apply for the addition and subtraction is :

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

(3.478-2.31) = 1.168 ≅ 1.17 (Rounded to least decimal digit)

(4.428-3.56) = 0.868 ≅ 0.87 (Rounded to least decimal digit)

So,

1.17 * 0.87 = 1.0  (Rounded to least significant)

Answer - two significant digits

Use the molar bond enthalpy data in the table to estimate the value of Δ∘rxn
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol

Explanation:

  • CH4(g) + 4Cl2(g) → CCl4(g) + 4HCl(g)

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4ΔH°HCl(g) + ΔH°CCl4(g) - 4ΔH°Cl2(g) - ΔH°CH4(g)

∴ ΔH°Cl2(g) = 0 KJ/mol.....pure element in its reference state

∴ ΔH°CCl4(g) = - 138.7 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°HCl(g) = - 92.3 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°CH4(g) = - 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4(- 92.3 KJ/mol) + (- 138.7 KJ/mol) - 4(0 KJ/mol) - (- 74.8 KJ/mol)

⇒  ΔH°rxn = - 369.2 KJ/mol - 138.7 KJ/mol - 0 KJ/mol + 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol

effect. RbClO(s) → Rb+(aq) + ClO−(aq) HClO(aq) + H2O(l) equilibrium reaction arrow H3O+(aq) + ClO−(aq) The degree of dissociatio
Lemur [1.5K]

Explanation:

Common ion effect is defined as the effect which occurs on equilibrium when a common ion (an ion which is already present in the solution) is added to a solution. This effect generally decreases the solubility of a solute.

Equilibrium reaction of strontium sulfate and sodium sulfate follows the equation:

RbClO(s)\rightarrow Rb^{+}(aq.)+ClO^{-}(aq.)

HClO(aq)+H_2O\rightleftharpoons H_3O^+(aq.)+ClO^{-}(aq.)

According to Le-Chateliers principle: If there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction in order to minimize the effect.

In the equilibrium reactions, hypochlorite ion is getting increased on the product side, so the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize this effect, which is in the direction of hydrogen hypochlorite.

Thus, the addition hypochlorite ions will shift the equilibrium in the left direction.

The dissociation of hydrogen hypochlorite is suppressed due to the common ion effect.

The osmotic pressure exerted by a solution is equal to the molarity multiplied by the absolute temperature and the gas constant
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: M = 22/ (i x28.948)

Explanation:

Pi = osmotic pressure = 22atm

T = Temperature = 353K

M = Molarity = ?

R = gas constant = 0.082atm.L/mol/K

i = van’t Hoff factor

Pi = iMRT

M= Pi /(iRT) = 22 / ( i x 0.082 x 353)

M = 22/ (i x28.948)
