At what temperature will a solid melt?

Chemistry
1 answer:
jolli1 [7]3 years ago
8 0

<u>Answer</u>:

A solid will melt at the temperature at which the kinetic energy breaks the inter-molecular attractions.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The melting point is the state at which "a substance changes its temperature from a solid to  liquid". At the melting point temperature, there is an equilibrium between the both the solid and the liquid phase. When the solid particle is heated by increasing the temperature the particle in the solid vibrate quickly and it absorbs kinetic energy.

It leads to the breaking of the organisation of particle in between the solid and that leads to the melting of solid. Thus, at the melting point, the kinetic energy breaks the inter-molecular attractions.

Be sure to answer all parts. for each reaction, find the value of δso. report the value with the appropriate sign. (a) 3 no2(g)
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Change in entropy for the reaction is

ΔS° = -268.13 J/K.mol

Explanation:

To calculate the change in entropy for the balanced reaction, we require the natural entropy of all the reactants and products in the reaction.

3 NO₂(g) + H₂O(l) → 2 HNO₃(l) + NO(g)

From Literature.

S°(NO₂) = 240.06 J/K.mol

S°(H₂O) = 69.91 J/K.mol

S°(HNO₃) = 155.60 J/K.mol

S°(NO) = 210.76 J/K.mol

These are the entropies of the reactants and products under standard conditions of 298.15 K and 1 atm.

Note that

ΔS° = Σ nᵢS°(for products) - Σ nᵢS°(for reactants)

Σ nᵢS°(for products) = [2 × S°(HNO₃)] + [1 × S°(NO)]

= (2 × 155.60) + (1 × 210.76) = 521.96 J/K.mol

Σ nᵢS°(for reactants) = [3 × S°(NO₂)] + [1 × S°(H₂O)]

= (3 × 240.06) + (1 × 69.91) =790.09 J/K.mol

ΔS° = Σ nᵢS°(for products) - Σ nᵢS°(for reactants)

ΔS° = 521.96 - 790.09 = -268.13 J/K.mol

Hope this Helps!!

How do the numbers of metal and non-metal elements compare? Estimate an approximate percentage difference.
Lerok [7]

Answer:

metal to non metal ratio is 97/21 = 4.62 or

82.2% metals, 17.8% non metals

Explanation:

How do the numbers of metal and non-metal elements compare? Estimate an approximate percentage difference. (learning about the periodic table if...

of 118 elements in the periodic table , 21 are non metals (even H has metallic properties when approching 0 degrees K)

this means there ar 21 nonmetals and 118-21=97 metals.

2. Calculate the number-average molecular weight of a random poly (isobutylene-isoprene) copolymer in which the fraction of isob
Phoenix [80]

Answer : The number-average molecular weight is, 97500 g/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the molecular weight of isobutylene and isoprene.

The molecular formula of isobutylene and isoprene is, C_4H_8 and C_5H_8

Molecular weight of C_4H_8 = 4(12 g//mol) + 8(1 g/mol) = 56 g/mol

Molecular weight of C_5H_8 = 5(12 g//mol) + 8(1 g/mol) = 68 g/mol

Now we have to calculate the average repeat molecular weight.

Average repeat molecular weight = 0.25\times (56g/mol)+(1-0.25)\times (68g/mol)

Average repeat molecular weight = 65 g/mol

Now we have to calculate the number-average molecular weight.

Number-average molecular weight = Average repeat molecular weight × Degree of polymerization

Number-average molecular weight = (65 g/mol) × (1500)

Number-average molecular weight = 97500 g/mol

Thus, the number-average molecular weight is, 97500 g/mol
