Answer:

Erosion involves movement to a new location, Weathering occurs in place, although they can occur together and both are caused by similar factors of wind, water, ice, temperature, and even biological action.

The heat of vaporization of water at 100°c is 40.66 kj/mol. Calculate the quantity of heat that is absorbed/released when 9.00 g

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

20.3 kJ of heat is absorbed when 9.00 g of steam condenses to liquid water.

Explanation:

Heat is being consumed during vaporization and heat is being released during condensation.

To vaporize 1 mol of water, 40.66 kJ of heat is being consumed.

Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol

Hence, to vaporize 18.02 g of water , 40.66 kJ of heat is being consumed.

So, to vaporize 9.00 g of water, $(\frac{40.66}{18.02}\times 9.00)kJ$ of heat or 20.3 kJ of heat is being consumed

As condensation is a reverse process of vaporization therefore 20.3 kJ of heat is absorbed when 9.00 g of steam condenses to liquid water.

A jar is filled with water, and the lid is closed tightly. The jar is kept at constant temperature. What happens at the surface

Katarina [22]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The correct answer is A: Water molecules evaporate and condense at the same rate.

Evaporation is defined as the physical change from liquid to gas, and Condensation is the physical change from gas to liquid.

At any given temperature, these two processes occur at once, in a dynamic equilibrium.

When the lid is closed, evaporation occurs faster than condensation, and pressure increases. Then, when pressure reaches a critical value, condensation starts to occur faster than evaporation, until an equilibrium is reached, and the pressure of the water molecules in the gas phase is maximum for that temperature. The pressure at that point is called Vapor Pressure.

Have a nice day!

How do you know if a compound will dissociate or ionize in water?

Ivenika [448]

when an ionic or covalent compound is dissolved in water they break apart into ions through process called dissociation ..the ions get attracted by the water molecules and hence they carry polar charges ..and if there is a conduction of electricity. .then we get to know that a compound is dissociated ..

9. Using the balanced equation from Question #8, how many grams of lead will be produced if 2.54 grams of PbS is burned with 1.8

MissTica

Answer: 2.24 grams of Pb

Explanation:

Step 1

Balanced chemical reaction;

2PbS + 3O2 → 2Pb + 2SO3

Step 2

Moles of both PbS and O2

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles of PbS = 2.54 g / 239.3 g/mol = 0.0108 moles

Moles of O2 = 1.88 / 32 g/mol = 0.0588 moles

Step 3

Finding the limiting reactant.

Limiting reactant, is that reactant which is completely used in the reaction;

If we assume that PbS is the limiting reactant;

We have 0.0588 moles of O2. This needs ( 0.0588 * 2) / 3 = 0.0392 moles of PbS to fully react. But we have only 0.0108 moles of PbS available. That means that the PbS will be completely consumed hence the limiting reactant

If we assume O2 is the limiting reactant;

We have 0.0108 moles of PbS. That needs ( 0.0108 * 3) / 2 = 0.0162 moles of O2. But we have 0.0588 moles of O2 which is in excess further confirming that PbS is the limiting reactant since it will be depleted in the reaction.

Step 4

Moles of lead

For this step we apply the mole ratios with the limiting reactant;

Mole ratio of PbS : Pb = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1

Therefore;

Moles of Pb = (0.0108 moles * 1 ) 1

Moles of Pb =0.0108 moles

Step 5

Mass of Pb

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass of Pb =0.0108 moles * 207.2 g/mol

Mass of Pb = 2.24 grams

What amount of moles of sodium chloride is needed to prepare 1.25 L of a salt solution with a concentration of 0.750 mol/L

stellarik [79]

Answer:

Number of moles = 0.94 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of sodium chloride = ?

Volume of sodium chloride = 1.25 L

Concentration of solution = 0.750 mol/L

Solution:

Formula:

Concentration = number of moles/ volume in L

By putting values.

0.750 mol/L = number of mole / 1.25 L

Number of moles = 0.750 mol/L×1.25 L

Number of moles = 0.94 mol
