The answer to this item is TRUE. This can be explained through the Graham's law. This law states that the rate at which gases diffuse is inversely proportional to the square root of their densities which is also related to their molecular masses.

Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

Graham's Law:

This law states that the rate of effusion or diffusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular mass of the gas. The equation given by this law follows the equation:

$\text{Rate of diffusion}\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{Molar mass of the gas}}}$

Higher the molecular mass lower will be effusion rate.
Lower the molecular mass higher will be the effusion rate.

If you mix 50mL of 0.1 M TRIS acid with 60 mL of0.2 M TRIS base, what will be the resulting pH?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: The pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

For TRIS acid:

Molarity of TRIS acid solution = 0.1 M

Volume of solution = 50 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.1M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS acid}\times 1000}{50mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS acid}=0.005mol$

For TRIS base:

Molarity of TRIS base solution = 0.2 M

Volume of solution = 60 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.2M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS base}\times 1000}{60mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS base}=0.012mol$

Volume of solution = 50 + 60 = 110 mL = 0.11 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})$

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{TRIS base}]}{[\text{TRIS acid}]})$

We are given:

$pK_a$ = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of TRIS acid = 8.3

$[\text{TRIS acid}]=\frac{0.005}{0.11}$

$[\text{TRIS base}]=\frac{0.012}{0.11}$

pH = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pH=8.3+\log(\frac{0.012/0.11}{0.005/0.11})\\\\pH=8.7$

Hence, the pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Calculate the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a 32g sample of water from 8°C to 22°C.

qwelly [4]

Answer:

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a 32g sample of water from 8°C to 22°C is 1,874.432 J

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

Sensible heat is the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

Between heat and temperature there is a direct proportional relationship. The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body and its mass, and is the product of the specific heat and the mass of the body. So, the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, constituted by a substance of specific heat c and where ΔT is the variation in temperature.

In this case:

c= 4.184 $\frac{J}{g*C}$
m= 32 g
ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 22°C - 8°C= 14°C

Replacing:

Q= 32 g* 4.184 $\frac{J}{g*C}$ *14 °C

Solving:

Q= 1,874.432 J

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a 32g sample of water from 8°C to 22°C is 1,874.432 J
