Answer:
Molar heat of solution of KBr is 20.0kJ/mol
Explanation:
Molar heat of solution is defined as the energy released (negative) or absorbed (Positive) per mole of solute being dissolved in solvent.
The dissolution of KBr is:
KBr → K⁺ + Br⁻
In the calorimeter, the temperature decreases 0.370K, that means the solution absorbes energy in this process. The energy is:
q = 1.36kJK⁻¹ × 0.370K
q = 0.5032kJ
Moles of KBr in 3.00g are:
3.00g × (1mol / 119g) = 0.0252moles
Thus, molar heat of solution of KBr is:
0.5032kJ / 0.0252moles = <em>20.0kJ/mol</em>
Answer:
Particles of matter possess energy called kinetic energy.
Solid cannot be compressed, but gases are highly compressible.
The Kinetic energy of molecules of gases is very large & solids the least.
On heating a sublimable liquid, the molecules break free & escape from the surface of the solid directly into vapour.
Particles of matter move more rapidly on the application of heat
