Answer:

Empirical formula is CCl₄

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of carbon = 7.70%

Percentage of chlorine = 92.3%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of Cl = 92.3 / 35.5 = 2.6

Number of gram atoms of C = 7.70 / 12 = 0.64

Atomic ratio:

            C                      :              Cl            

           0.64/0.64        :             2.6/0.64

            1                      :                4        

C : Cl  = 1 : 4

Empirical formula is CCl₄.

The vapor pressure of ethanol is 30°C at 98.5 mmHg and the heat of vaporization is 39.3 kJ/mol. Determine the normal boiling poi
Gelneren [198K]

Answer : The normal boiling point of ethanol will be, 348.67K or 75.67^oC

Explanation :

The Clausius- Clapeyron equation is :

\ln (\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}\times (\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2})

where,

P_1 = vapor pressure of ethanol at 30^oC = 98.5 mmHg

P_2 = vapor pressure of ethanol at normal boiling point = 1 atm = 760 mmHg

T_1 = temperature of ethanol = 30^oC=273+30=303K

T_2 = normal boiling point of ethanol = ?

\Delta H_{vap} = heat of vaporization = 39.3 kJ/mole = 39300 J/mole

R = universal constant = 8.314 J/K.mole

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

\ln (\frac{760mmHg}{98.5mmHg})=\frac{39300J/mole}{8.314J/K.mole}\times (\frac{1}{303K}-\frac{1}{T_2})

T_2=348.67K=348.67-273=75.67^oC

Hence, the normal boiling point of ethanol will be, 348.67K or 75.67^oC

Espresso Coffee House is designing a coffee mug that keeps liquids hot. The research department tested several different materia
raketka [301]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because the result of the described experiment would have better determined the type of scientific explanation to profer. However, the type of material that will preserve the relative hotness or temperature of the hot coffee for the longest time will be a material than can resist heat transfer. These materials tend to keep hot substances hot by not allowing the heat of the coffee to be conducted or pass through it. These materials are mostly insulators or made by placing an insulator between two heat conductors.

Generally, heat is usually transferred from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration, hence when the heat is denied of this transfer, the heat will remain trapped in the "heat-donor" substance (in this case the hot coffee). Thus, the material chosen (A, B or C) will be the material that resists heat transfer the most based on the explanation above.

Consider the following system at equilibrium where H° = 111 kJ/mol, and Kc = 6.30, at 723 K.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

1) The value of Kc:

C. remains the same.

2) The value of Qc:

A. is greater than Kc.

3) The reaction must:

B. run in the reverse direction to restablish equilibrium.

4) The concentration of N2 will:

B. decrease.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, by means of the Le Chatelier's principle which is based on the shift a chemical reaction could have under some modifications, we have:

1) The value of Kc:

C. remains the same, since it just depend the reaction's thermodynamics as it is computed via:

ln(K)=\frac{\Delta _RG}{RT}

2) The value of Qc:

A. is greater than Kc, since the reaction quotient is:

Qc=\frac{[N_2][H_2]^3}{[NH_3]^2}

Thus, the lower the concentration of ammonia, the higher Qc, making Qc>Kc.

3) The reaction must:

B. run in the reverse direction to restablish equilibrium, since ammonia was withdrawn and should be regenerated to reach the equilibrium.

4) The concentration of N2 will:

B. decrease, since less reactant is forming the products.

Best regards.
