Why it is that evaporation causes cooling,but boiling causes heating?

2 answers:

8 0

During evaporation, particles which have a high kinetic energy come out of the body by gaining heat due to which there is a cooling effect on the particle of the body itself. that is why, evaporation causes cooling. For example: sweating

In evaporation due to internal heat, kinetic energy of molecules increases and they come to the top and take out that heat with them when they evaporate thus causes cooling
in boiling as heat is given to the molecules so their kinetic energy increases and they start vibrating with great energy and thus causes heating

Ammonium hydroxide is neutralized by sulfuric acid to produce ammonium sulfate and water. It will make ___ mol ammonium sulfate

Bingel [31]

Answer:

1) Ammonium hydroxide is neutralized by sulfuric acid to produce ammonium sulfate and water. It will make 0.157 mol ammonium sulfate when you neutralize 11.00 g ammonium hydroxide.

2) 2NH₄OH + H₂SO₄ → (NH₄)₂SO₄ + 2H₂O.

Explanation:

Firstly, we should balance the equation of heptane combustion.
We can balance the equation by applying the conservation of mass to the equation.

The balanced equation is: 2NH₄OH + H₂SO₄ → (NH₄)₂SO₄ + 2H₂O.

This means that every 2.0 moles of ammonium hydroxide (NH₄OH) will produce 1.0 mole of ammonium sulfate (NH₄)₂SO₄ when it is neutralized by sulfuric acid.

We need to calculate the no. of moles in 11.0 g of ammonium hydroxide that is neutralized using the relation: n = mass/molar mass.

n of 11.0 g of ammonium hydroxide (NH₄OH) = mass/molar mass = (11.0 g)/(35.04 g/mol) = 0.314 mol.

Using cross multiplication:

2.0 moles of NH₄OH make → 1.0 mole of (NH₄)₂SO₄.

0.314 mol of NH₄OH make → ??? moles of (NH₄)₂SO₄.

∴ The no. of moles of (NH₄)₂SO₄ that will be made from neutralizing (11.0 g) of NH₄OH = (0.314 mol)(1.0 mol)/(2.0 mol) = 0.157 mol.

∴ Ammonium hydroxide is neutralized by sulfuric acid to produce ammonium sulfate and water. It will make 0.157 mol ammonium sulfate when you neutralize 11.00 g ammonium hydroxide.

Doing which of the following generally increases entropy of a substance

zhuklara [117]

Freezing the substance and condensing it will not increase the entropy of a substance. In fact, dissolving the substance into water is the only way to increase the entropy of a certain substance. The entropy increases because it diversify with each other.

Arrange the following in order of increasing bond strength of the carbon oxygen bond:

icang [17]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that length of a bond is inversely proportional to the bond strength. This also means that a single bond has long length due to which it is weak in nature.

And, a double bond is shorter in length and has more strength as compared to a single bond. Whereas a triple bond has the smallest length and it has high strength as compared to a double or single bond.

For example, carbon monoxide is CO where there is a triple bond between the carbon and oxygen atom.

Carbon dioxide is $CO_{2}$ where there exists a double bond between the carbon and oxygen atom.

A carbonate ion is $CO^{2-}_{3}$ when two oxygen atoms are attached through single bond with the carbon atom and another oxygen atom is attached through a double bond to the carbon atom.

Hence, we can conclude that order of increasing bond strength of the given carbon oxygen bond is as follows.

Carbonate ion < carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide

Do plasmids have an importance beyond the practice of genetic engineering?

kozerog [31]

Answer: Yes

Explanation: Plasmids offer a number of unique characteristics that make genetic engineering much more efficient. Plasmids are a type of non-chromosomal DNA. Integrating DNA into a bacterial or other chromosome is far more complex than simply putting DNA into a cell; plasmids make it easier to transport DNA into a cell by eliminating this step.
