Answer:

a.) 22.4 L Ne.

Explanation:

It is known that every 1.0 mol of any gas occupies 22.4 L.

For the options:

22.4 L Ne:

<em>It represents </em><em>1.0 mol of Ne.</em>

<em />

20 L Ar:

using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol occupies → 22.4 L.

??? mol occupies → 20 L.

The no. of moles of (20 L) Ar = (1.0 mol)(20 L)/(22.4 L) = 0.8929 mol.

2.24 L Xe:

using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol occupies → 22.4 L.

??? mol occupies → 2.24 L.

<em>The no. of moles of (2.24 L) Xe </em>= (1.0 mol)(2.24 L)/(22.4 L) = <em>0.1 mol.</em>

So, the gas that has the largest number of moles at STP is: a.) 22.4 L Ne.

Identify each process as endothermic or exothermic and indicate the sign of H . (a) an ice cube melting (b) nail polish remover

Answer:an ice cube melting ∆H=+ve

nail polish remover quickly evaporating after it is accidentally spilled on the skin ∆H=-ve

gasoline burning within the cylinder of an automobile engine ∆H=-ve

Explanation:

In an endothermic process, such as the melting of an ice cube, heat is absorbed from the surrounding. The enthalpy change is positive. The evaporation a nail polish and burning of gasoline are exothermic processes which lead to the release of heat to the surrounding. The sign of the enthalpy change in both cases is negative.
