Which statement best describes London dispersion forces?

1 answer:

7 0

<span>London dispersion forces is the weakest intermolecular force. It is a temporary force that happens when electrons of two adjacent atoms occupy positions that make atoms form dipoles which are temporary dipoles. This is also referred as dipole-dipole attraction.</span>

VikaD [51]

Answer : The value of $\Delta G^o$ and K is, -180 kJ/mol and $3.6\times 10^{31}$

Explanation :

The balanced cell reaction will be,

$Pb(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Ag(g)$

The half-cell reactions are:

Oxidation reaction (anode) : $Pb(s)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2e^-$

Reduction reaction (cathode) : $2Ag^+(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow 2Ag(g)$

Relationship between standard Gibbs free energy and standard electrode potential follows:

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy

F = Faraday constant = 96500 C

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2

$E^o_{cell}$ = standard electrode potential of the cell = 0.93 V

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$\Delta G^o=-2\times 96500\times 0.93$

$\Delta G^o=-179490J/mol=-179.49kJ/mol\approx -180kJ/mol$

Now we have to calculate the value of 'K'.

$\Delta G^o=-RT\ln K$

where,

$\Delta G_^o$ = standard Gibbs free energy = -180 kJ/mol

R = gas constant = $8.314\times 10^{-3}kJ/mole.K$

T = temperature = 298 K

K = equilibrium constant = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

$-180kJ/mol=-(8.314\times 10^{-3}kJ/mole.K)\times (298K)\times \ln K$

$K=3.6\times 10^{31}$

Therefore, the value of $\Delta G^o$ and K is, -180 kJ/mol and $3.6\times 10^{31}$

4. An 82 kg hiker climbs Mt. Humphrey near Flagstaff. During a two hour period, the hiker's

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$\Delta E = 434253.96\,J$ , $\Delta P = 60.313\,W$

Explanation:

The change in energy is given by the change in gravitational potential energy:

$\Delta E = m\cdot g \cdot \Delta h$

$\Delta E = (82\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (540\,m)$

$\Delta E = 434253.96\,J$

The average rate of change in terms of time is approximately this:

$\Delta P = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t}$

$\Delta P = \frac{434253.96\,J}{(2\,h)\cdot (\frac{3600\,s}{1\,h} )}$

$\Delta P = 60.313\,W$

If you have 2.1 liters of hydrogen gas (at STP), what mass of hydrogen gas would you have?

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

0.19 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Volume of hydrogen at standard temperature and pressure (STP): 2.1 L

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 2.1 L of hydrogen at STP

At STP (273.15 K and 1 atm), 1 mole of hydrogen has a volume of 22.4 L if we treat it as an ideal gas.

2.1 L × 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.094 mol

Step 3: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.094 moles of hydrogen

The molar mass of hydrogen is 2.02 g/mol.

0.094 mol × 2.02 g/mol = 0.19 g
