P4O10(s) = -3110 kJ/mol H2O(l) = -286 kJ/mol H3PO4(s) = -1279 kJ/mol Calculate the change in enthalpy for the following process:
mash [69]

Answer:

-290KJ/mol

Explanation:

ΔHrxn = ΔHproduct - ΔHreactant

ΔHrxn= 4ΔHH3PO4 - {6ΔHH2O + ΔHP4O10}

ΔHrxn = 4(-1279) - [6(-286) - 3110]

= -5116 -(-1716-3110)

= -5116-(-4826)

= -5116 + 4826 = -290KJ/mol

The _______ geometry of a water molecule is tetrahedral even though the molecular geometry is bent
IRINA_888 [86]

The electron geometry of a water molecule is tetrahedral even though the molecular geometry is bent.

As water molecule hybridisation is sp³ that provides it a electron geometry tetrahedral but due to presence of 2 lone pairs and 2 bond pairs its molecular geometry is bent.

The hybridisation sp³ makes  electron geometry of a water molecule tetrahedral but the presence of 2 lone pairs makes its  molecular geometry bent

How many moles are in 2.98x10^23 particles?
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.495 \ mol}}

Explanation:

We are given a number of particles and asked to convert to moles.

<h3>1. Convert Particles to Moles </h3>

1 mole of any substance contains the same number of particles (atoms, molecules, formula units) : 6.022 *10²³ or Avogadro's Number. For this question, the particles are not specified.

So, we know that 1 mole of this substance contains 6.022 *10²³ particles. Let's set up a ratio.

\frac { 1 \ mol }{6.022*10^{23 } \ particles}}

We are converting 2.98*10²³ particles to moles, so we multiply the ratio by that value.

2.98*10^{23} \ particles *\frac { 1 \ mol }{6.022*10^{23 } \ particles}}

The units of particles cancel.

2.98*10^{23}  *\frac { 1 \ mol }{6.022*10^{23 } }}

\frac { 2.98*10^{23}}{6.022*10^{23 } }}  \ mol

0.4948522086 \ mol

<h3>2. Round</h3>

The original measurement of particles (2.98*10²³) has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same.

For the number we found, 3 sig figs is the thousandth place.

The 8 in the ten-thousandth place (0.4948522086) tells us to round the 4 up to a 5 in the thousandth place.

0.495 \ mol

2.98*10²³ particles are equal to approximately <u>0.495 moles.</u>
