Answer:

The valence shell (the 3s and 3p sublevels) contains six electrons, but it needs eight to become stable. Think of the octet rule. Therefore a sulfur atom will gain two electrons to form the sulfide anion with a charge of 2− , with the symbol S2− .

A 50.0 mL sample of a 1.00 M solution of CuSO4 is mixed with 50.0 mL of 2.00 M KOH in a calorimeter. The temperature of both sol

Reika [66]

Answer : The enthalpy change for the process is 52.5 kJ/mole.

Explanation :

Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the solution

$q=[q_1+q_2]$

$q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m_2\times c_2\times \Delta T]$

where,

q = heat released by the reaction

$q_1$ = heat absorbed by the calorimeter

$q_2$ = heat absorbed by the solution

$c_1$ = specific heat of calorimeter = $12.1J/^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of water = $4.18J/g^oC$

$m_2$ = mass of water or solution = $Density\times Volume=1/mL\times 100.0mL=100.0g$

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = $T_2-T_1=(26.3-20.2)^oC=6.1^oC$

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

$q=[(12.1J/^oC\times 6.1^oC)+(100.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 6.1^oC)]$

$q=2623.61J$

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change for the process.

$\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat released = 2626.61 J

n = number of moles of copper sulfate used = $Concentration\times Volume=1M\times 0.050L=0.050mole$

$\Delta H=\frac{2623.61J}{0.050mole}=52472.2J/mole=52.5kJ/mole$

Therefore, the enthalpy change for the process is 52.5 kJ/mole.

Water has a density of 1.0g/ml * Physical Property Physical Change Chemical Property Chemical Change

Daniel [21]

The density of water is a physical property.

You can measure it without changing the water to a different substance.

It is not a physical change because the water does not change to ice or steam.

You can observe a chemical property or a chemical change only if the water changes to a different substance.
