A substance has a triple point at −24.5 ∘C and 225 mmHg. What is most likely to happen to a solid sample of the substance as it
is warmed from −35 ∘C to 5 ∘C at a pressure of 210 mmHg?Nothing (the solid will remain as a solid).The solid will sublime into a gas.The solid will melt into a liquid.
1 answer:
Answer:
The solid will sublime into a gas
Explanation:
In the graph in the attachment
Y-axis represents pressure in mm of Hg
X- axis represents temperature in degree Celsius
The graph show the triple point of water.
Clearly, the sample will go from solid to vapor directly, no liquid involved (pink line is there to show that this is below triple point)
So
expect sublimation
The solid will sublime into a gas.

Answer : The excess reactant in the combustion of methane in opem atmosphere is molecule.
Solution : Given,
Mass of methane = 23 g
Molar mass of methane = 16.04 g/mole
The Net balanced chemical reaction for combustion of methane is,
First we have to calculate the moles of methane.
=
= 1.434 moles
From the above chemical reaction, we conclude that
1 mole of methane react with the 2 moles of oxygen
and 1.434 moles of methane react to give moles of oxygen
The Moles of oxygen = 2.868 moles
Now we conclude that the moles of oxygen are more than the moles of methane.
Therefore, the excess reactant in the combustion of methane in open atmosphere is molecule.
