Metal carbonates decompose to the metal oxide and CO2 on heating according to this general equation. Mx(CO3)is) → My(s) + yCO2(g

) You heat 0.0900 g of a white, solid carbonate of a Group 2A metal and find that the evolved CO2 has a pressure of 69.8 mm Hg in a 285 mL flask at 25 °C. Determine the molar mass of the metal carbonate.

Answer:

84.11 g/mol

Explanation:

A metal from group 2A will form the cation M²⁺, and the ion carbonate is CO₃²⁻, so the metal carbonate must be: MCO₃, and the reaction:

MCO₃(s) → MO(s) + CO₂(g)

For the stoichiometry of the reaction, 1 mol of MCO₃(s) will produce 1 mol of CO₂. Using the ideal gas law, it's possible to calculate the number of moles of CO₂:

PV = nRT , where P is the pressure, V is the volume(0.285 L), R is the gas constant (62.36 mmHg*L/mol*K), n is the number of moles, and T is the temperature (25 + 273 = 298 K).

69.8*0.285 = n*62.36*298

18583.28n = 19.893

n = 0.00107 mol

So, the number of moles of the metal carbonate is 0.00107. The molar mass is the mass divided by the number of moles:

0.0900/0.00107 = 84.11 g/mol

The yttrium- nuclide radioactively decays by electron capture. Write a balanced nuclear chemical equation that describes this pr
evablogger [386]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

Yttrium has many isotopes, the lowest mass number of Yttrium  is 89Y.

Recall that electron capture converts an electron into a proton and then into a neutron with a consequent emission of a neutrino (v).

In electron capture, the mass number of the daughter nucleus remains the same as that of the parent nucleus while the atomic number of the daughter nucleus is less than that of the parent by one unit.

Use the given data at 500 K to calculate ΔG°for the reaction
Anton [14]

Answer : The  value of \Delta G^o for the reaction is -959.1 kJ

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2H_2S(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(g)+2SO_2(g)

First we have to calculate the enthalpy of reaction (\Delta H^o).

\Delta H^o=H_f_{product}-H_f_{reactant}

\Delta H^o=[n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2O)}+n_{SO_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(SO_2)}]-[n_{H_2S}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2S)}+n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(O_2)}]

where,

\Delta H^o = enthalpy of reaction = ?

n = number of moles

\Delta H_f^0 = standard enthalpy of formation

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

\Delta H^o=[2mole\times (-242kJ/mol)+2mole\times (-296.8kJ/mol)}]-[2mole\times (-21kJ/mol)+3mole\times (0kJ/mol)]

\Delta H^o=-1035.6kJ=-1035600J

conversion used : (1 kJ = 1000 J)

Now we have to calculate the entropy of reaction (\Delta S^o).

\Delta S^o=S_f_{product}-S_f_{reactant}

\Delta S^o=[n_{H_2O}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(H_2O)}+n_{SO_2}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(SO_2)}]-[n_{H_2S}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(H_2S)}+n_{O_2}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(O_2)}]

where,

\Delta S^o = entropy of reaction = ?

n = number of moles

\Delta S_f^0 = standard entropy of formation

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

\Delta S^o=[2mole\times (189J/K.mol)+2mole\times (248J/K.mol)}]-[2mole\times (206J/K.mol)+3mole\times (205J/K.mol)]

\Delta S^o=-153J/K

Now we have to calculate the Gibbs free energy of reaction (\Delta G^o).

As we know that,

\Delta G^o=\Delta H^o-T\Delta S^o

At room temperature, the temperature is 500 K.

\Delta G^o=(-1035600J)-(500K\times -153J/K)

\Delta G^o=-959100J=-959.1kJ

Therefore, the value of \Delta G^o for the reaction is -959.1 kJ

In the molecule ClF3, chlorine makes three covalent bonds. Therefore, three of its seven valence electrons need to be unpaired.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Chlorine has electronic configuration of 2 , 8 , 7

In n = 3 there are 7 electrons out of which 2 are in s , and 5 are in p . But out of 5 electrons in p , one electron jumps into d orbital . so the electronic configuration  becomes as follows

3s^23p_x^23p_y^23p_z^1  = 7

3s^23p_x^23p_y^13p_z^13d_{xy}^1

These orbitals like sp³d hybridise to form 7 degenerate orbitals out of which 2 orbitals contain electrons in pairs and rest three are singly occupied by electrons.( unpaired electrons )
