Answer:

Option C

The specific heat is the heat capacity for one mole of a substance.

Explanation:

The incorrect statement is  <em>The specific heat is the heat capacity for one mole of a substance.</em>

This is because the specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gramme of a substance by 1 degree Celcius.

Note that the unit in question here for the specific heat capacity of the substance is in grammes.

The definition given in the options is actually for the molar heat capacity of the substance, not the specific heat capacity.

The reaction is proceeding at a rate of 0.0080 Ms-1 in 50.0 mL of solution in a system with unknown concentrations of A and B. W
Leokris [45]

Answer:

0.0010 mol·L⁻¹s⁻¹  

Explanation:

Assume the rate law is  

rate = k[A][B]²

If you are comparing two rates,

\dfrac{\text{rate}_{2}}{\text{rate}_{1}} = \dfrac{k_{2}\text{[A]}_2[\text{B]}_{2}^{2}}{k_{1}\text{[A]}_1[\text{B]}_{1}^{2}}= \left (\dfrac{\text{[A]}_{2}}{\text{[A]}_{1}}\right ) \left (\dfrac{\text{[B]}_{2}}{\text{[B]}_{1}}\right )^{2}

You are cutting each concentration in half, so

\dfrac{\text{[A]}_{2}}{\text{[A]}_{1}} = \dfrac{1}{2}\text{ and }\dfrac{\text{[B]}_{2}}{\text{[B]}_{1}}= \dfrac{1}{2}

Then,

\dfrac{\text{rate}_{2}}{\text{rate}_{1}} = \left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right ) \left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right )^{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}\times\dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{1}{8}\\\\\text{rate}_{2} = \dfrac{1}{8}\times \text{rate}_{1}= \dfrac{1}{8}\times \text{0.0080 mol$\cdot$L$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$} = \textbf{0.0010 mol$\cdot$L$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$}\\\\\text{The new rate is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.0010 mol$\cdot$L$^\mathbf{{-1}}$s$^{\mathbf{-1}}$}}$}

Which of the following would not be considered an observation in terms of the scientific method?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

the first option, tasting a pasta sauce after adding a new ingredient.

Explanation:

tasting a pasta sauce after adding a new ingredient is not an observation because there is no qualitative or quantitative data to be taken from that experience.

Predict the sign of the entropy change,Delta S, for each of the following reactions:The signs are either going to be pos or nega
algol [13]

Answer: a) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s):  negative

b)  CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g) : positive

c) 2NH_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3H_2(g): positive.

d) P_4(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow P_4O_{10}(s) : negative

e) C_4H_8(g)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g):  positive.

f) I_2(s)\rightarrow I_2(g) : positive.

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

a) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)

As ions are moving to solid form , randomness decreases and thus sign of \Delta S is negative.

b) CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

c) 2NH_3(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+3H_2(g)

As 2 moles of reactants are converted to 4 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

d) P_4(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow P_4O_{10}(s)

As gas is changing to solid, randomness decreases and thus sign of \Delta S is negative.

e) C_4H_8(g)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

As 7 moles of reactants are converted to 8 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

f) I_2(s)\rightarrow I_2(g)

As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of \Delta S is positive.

Calculate the molar solubility of silver chloride in 0.15 M sodium chloride.
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

S = 1.1 × 10⁻⁹ M

Explanation:

NaCl is a strong electrolyte that dissociates according to the following expression.

NaCl(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

Given the concentration of NaCl is 0.15 M, the concentration of Cl⁻ will be 0.15 M.

We can find the molar solubility (S) of AgCl using an ICE chart.

      AgCl(s) ⇄ Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

I                         0            0.15

C                      +S              +S

E                        S            0.15+S

The solubility product (Ksp) is:

Ksp = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁰ = [Ag⁺].[Cl⁻] = S (0.15 + S)

If we solve the quadratic equation, the positive result is S = 1.1 × 10⁻⁹ M
