Answer:

The answer to your question is: 55.84 u. The element is Iron

Explanation:

isotope 1    mass 53.94 u        abundance  5.85%

             2   mass 55.9349      abundance 91.75%

            3    mass 56.9354       abundance 2.12%

             4    mass 57.9333      abundance 0.28%

average atomic mass = (53.94 x 0.0585) + (55.9349 x 0.9175) + (56.9354 x 0.0212) + (57.9333 x 0.0028)

average atomic mass = 3.155 + 51.32 + 1.207 + 0.1622

average atomic mass = 55.84 u. The element is Iron

Phosphorus pentachloride reacts with water to form hydrochloric acid and phosphoric acid. How many total moles of acid are forme
klio [65]

Answer:

0,13 moles of acid are produced

Explanation:

The reaction of the problem is:

PCl₅ + 4H₂O → 5HCl + H₃PO₄

Based on the reaction, 1 mole of PCl₅ produces 6 moles of acid (5 moles of HCl + 1 mole of H₃PO₄).

The molecular mass of PCl₅ is:

1P = 30,97g/mol + 5Cl = 5×35,45g/mol = <em>208,24 g/mol</em>

That means 4,5g of PCl₅ are:

4,5g PCl₅×(1mol / 208,24g) = 0,0216 moles of PCl₅. As 1 mole of PCl₅ produces 6 moles of acid, 0,0216 moles of PCl₅ produce:

0,0216 moles PCl₅ × (6 moles acid / mole of PCl₅) =

<em>0,13 moles of acid are produced</em>

I hope it helps!

A closed, frictionless piston-cylinder contains a gas mixture with the following composition on a mass basis: 40% carbon dioxide
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

W=-37.6kJ, therefore, work is done on the system.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the first step is to compute the moles of each gas present in the given mixture, by using the total mixture weight the mass compositions and their molar masses:

n_{CO_2}=0.8kg*0.4*\frac{1kmolCO_2}{44kgCO_2}= 0.00727kmolCO_2\\\\n_{O_2}=0.8kg*0.25*\frac{1kmolO_2}{32kgO_2}=0.00625kmolO_2\\ \\n_{Ne}=0.8kg*0.35*\frac{1kmolNe}{20.2kgNe}=0.0139kmolNe

Next, the total moles:

n_T=0.00727kmol+0.00625kmol+0.0139kmol=0.02742kmol

After that, since the process is isobaric, we can compute the work as:

W=P(V_2-V_1)

Therefore, we need to compute both the initial and final volumes which are at 260 °C and 95 °C respectively for the same moles and pressure (isobaric closed system)

V_1=\frac{n_TRT_1}{P}= \frac{0.02742kmol*8.314\frac{kPa*m^3}{kmol\times K}*(260+273)K}{450kPa}=0.27m^3\\ \\V_2=\frac{n_TRT_2}{P}= \frac{0.02742kmol*8.314\frac{kPa*m^3}{kmol\times K}*(95+273)K}{450kPa}=0.19m^3

Thereby, the magnitude and direction of work turn out:

W=450kPa(0.19m^3-0.27m^3)\\\\W=-37.6kJ

Thus, we conclude that since it is negative, work is done on the system (first law of thermodynamics).

Regards.

Compare the reactivity between lithium and sodium towards oxygen. ​
Scrat [10]
Reactivity of Group 1 and 2 elements increases as you go down the periodic table. So sodium is more reactive than lithium. Sodium will react with oxygen forming Na2O (sodium oxide). Lithium forms lithium oxide (Li2O).

Which salt is produced when NH4OH Reacts with HNO3
borishaifa [10]

Explanation:

When an acid reacts with a base then it results in the formation of salt and water.

HNO_{3} is an acid and NH_{4}OH is a base thus, when we dissolve ammonium hydroxide in nitric acid then it results in the formation of ammonium nitrate and water.

The reaction is as follows.

 NH_{4}OH + HNO_{3} \rightarrow NH_{4}NO_{3} + H_{2}O

Hence, there will be formation of ammonium nitrate (NH_{4}NO_{3}) salt.

Calcium chloride is added to the roadways after a snowstorm. Which colligative property is being showcased here?
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Option (D) freezing point depression

Explanation:

Calcium chloride is added to the roadways after a snowstorm because it reduces the freezing point of the ice. Further more, it has been observed that the calcium chloride also produces enough heat which enhances the melting of the ice as it produces an exothermic reaction.
