Answer : The normal boiling point of ethanol will be, $348.67K$ or $75.67^oC$

Explanation :

The Clausius- Clapeyron equation is :

$\ln (\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}\times (\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2})$

where,

$P_1$ = vapor pressure of ethanol at $30^oC$ = 98.5 mmHg

$P_2$ = vapor pressure of ethanol at normal boiling point = 1 atm = 760 mmHg

$T_1$ = temperature of ethanol = $30^oC=273+30=303K$

$T_2$ = normal boiling point of ethanol = ?

$\Delta H_{vap}$ = heat of vaporization = 39.3 kJ/mole = 39300 J/mole

R = universal constant = 8.314 J/K.mole

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$\ln (\frac{760mmHg}{98.5mmHg})=\frac{39300J/mole}{8.314J/K.mole}\times (\frac{1}{303K}-\frac{1}{T_2})$

$T_2=348.67K=348.67-273=75.67^oC$

Hence, the normal boiling point of ethanol will be, $348.67K$ or $75.67^oC$

Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs when heptane, C7H16(l) , burns in air.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Start with Unbalanced Equation and balance it, so...
C7H16+O2--->CO2+H2O
There are 7 C atoms on the left-hand side, so we need 7 C atoms on the right-hand side. Add a 7 in front of the CO2...7CO2+H2O on right side now.
We have fixed 16 H atoms on the left-hand side, so we need 16 H atoms on the right-hand side. Add an 8 in front of H2O to make 16 (8x2)...7CO2+8H2O on right side now.
There are 22 O atoms on the right-hand side: 14 from the CO2 and 8 from the H2O. Add an 11 in front of the O2 on the left side to make 22 (11x2).
Every formula now has a fixed coefficient. You should have a balanced equation of...
C7H16+11O2--->7CO2+8H2O

(b) The conductivity of a 0.01 mol dm–3 solution of a monobasic organic acid in water is 5.07 × 10–2 S m–1. If the molar conduct

Zarrin [17]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

$\Lambda^{o}_{m}$ (NaCl) = $1.264 \times 10^{-2}$

$\Lambda^{o}_{m}$ (H-O=C-ONO) = $1.046 \times 10^{-2}$

$\Lambda^{o}_{m}$ (HCl) = $4.261 \times 10^{-2}$

Conductivity of monobasic acid is $5.07 \times 10^{-2} S m^{-1}$

Concentration = 0.01 $mol/dm^{3}$

Therefore, molar conductivity ( $\Lambda_{m}$ ) of monobasic acid is calculated as follows.

$\Lambda_{m} = \frac{conductivity}{concentration}$

= $\frac{5.07 \times 10^{-2} S m^{-1}}{0.01 mol/dm^{3}}$

= $\frac{5.07 \times 10^{-2} S m^{-1}}{0.01 mol \times 10^{3}}$

= $5.07 \times 10^{-3} S m^{2} mol^{-1}$

Also, $\Lambda^{o}_{m}$ = $\Lambda^{o}_{m}_{(HCl)} + \Lambda^{o}_{m}_{(H-O=C-ONO)} - \Lambda^{o}_{m}_{(NaCl)}$

= $4.261 \times 10^{-2} + 1.046 \times 10^{-2} - 1.264 \times 10^{-2}$

= $4.043 \times 10^{-2} S m^{2} mol^{-1}$

Relation between degree of dissociation and molar conductivity is as follows.

$\alpha = \frac{\Lambda_{m}}{\Lambda^{o}_{m}}$

= $\frac{5.07 \times 10^{-2} S m^{-1}}{4.043 \times 10^{-2} S m^{2} mol^{-1}}$

= 0.1254

Whereas relation between acid dissociation constant and degree of dissociation is as follows.

K = $\frac{c \times \alpha^{2}}{1 - \alpha}$

Putting the values into the above formula we get the following.

K = $\frac{c \times \alpha^{2}}{1 - \alpha}$

= $\frac{0.01 \times (0.1254)^{2}}{1 - 0.1254}$

= $0.017973 \times 10^{-2}$

= $1.7973 \times 10^{-4}$

Hence, the acid dissociation constant is $1.7973 \times 10^{-4}$ .

Also, relation between $pK_{a}$ and $K_{a}$ is as follows.

$pK_{a} = -log K_{a}$

= $-log (1.7973 \times 10^{-4})$

= 3.7454

Therefore, value of $pK_{a}$ is 3.7454.

The statement "electrons have a negative charge" is true. Select the correct evidence scientist have that proves this statement

Kryger [21]

The question is incomplete but i will try to offer as much help as i can.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The electron was discovered by J.J Thompson. His model of the atom was called the plum-pudding model of the atom.

He discovered that cathode rays being negatively charged particles were deflected by a magnet in just the same way as moving, negative electrically charged particles.

Similarly, in an electric field, they are deflected towards the positive plate of the electrostatic field which shows that they are negatively charged.
