Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of hydrogen chloride

IrinaK [193]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of hydrogen chloride would be produced by this reaction if 1.1 mL of methane were consumed? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of hydrogen chloride produced in the reaction will be 4.4 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Volume of methane gas = 1.1 mL

The chemical equation for the reaction of methane gas and chlorine gas follows:

$CH_4(g)+4Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 4HCl(g)+CCl_4(g)$

Moles of methane gas = 1 mole

Moles of hydrogen chloride gas = 4 moles

The relationship of number of moles and volume at constant temperature and pressure was given by Avogadro's law. This law states that volume is directly proportional to number of moles at constant temperature and pressure.

The equation used to calculate number of moles is given by:

$\frac{V_1}{n_1}=\frac{V_2}{n_2}$

where,

$V_1\text{ and }n_1$ are the volume and number of moles of methane gas

$V_2\text{ and }n_2$ are the volume and number of moles of hydrogen chloride

We are given:

$V_1=1.1mL\\n_1=1mol\\V_2=?L\\n_2=4mol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{1.1}{1}=\frac{V_2}{4}\\\\V_2=\frac{1.1\times 4}{1}=4.4mL$

Hence, the volume of hydrogen chloride produced in the reaction will be 4.4 mL

Atoms are composed of a central nucleus which is surrounded by orbiting

ad-work [718]

Answer:

Atoms are composed of a central nucleus which is surrounded by orbiting <u>Electrons</u>.

Explanation:

The word Atom is derived from atomos meaning indivisible particle. An atom is a very small sized particle and its size is approximately 100 picometers.

Atoms are composed of a Nucleus which contains protons and neutrons and the nucleus is surrounded by orbiting electrons. Also, the nucleus is positively charged due to +ve protons and the electrons revolving around nucleus are -vely charged making overall atom neutral in nature.

Atoms react with another atoms due to the presence of valence electrons present in the valence shell of an atom. The valence electrons would make a covalent bond by mutually sharing the electrons or it may form an ionic bond by gaining and loosing valence electron.

Which factor determine the reactivity of alkyl halide

Pavel [41]

Answer:

This reactivity order reflects both the strength of the C–X bond, and the stability of X(–) as a leaving group, and leads to the general conclusion that alkyl iodides are the most reactive members of this functional class.

How isa molecule of mercury different from a molocue of water

Genrish500 [490]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The density of mercury molecule is higher than water.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Density is defined as mass per unit volume.In other words, density is the amount of matter within a given amount of space. water has the density of 1.0 gram per milliliter whereas the mercury has a density of 13.6 grams per centimeter squared.

One reason for the differences in density between mercury and water is that the atomic mass of mercury is 200.59 grams per mole. The atomic mass of water is 18.0 grams per mole. This is because mercury has a larger nucleus than hydrogen or water.

Additionally, there are strong inter-molecular forces (hydrogen bonds) between water molecules. hydrogen molecules do not stack upon one another as nicely as mercury atoms. Thus, there is additional empty spaces between the water molecules leading to its lower mass per volume(density)
