Answer:
The pressure increases.
Explanation:
According to Avogadro's principle, equal volume of gases contains the same number of moles. From the reaction equation, there is a decrease in the total number of moles from reactant to product indicating a decrease in volume (as per Avogadro) and an increase in pressure according to Boyle's Law-Volume is inversely proportional to pressure.
Answer:
-177.9 kJ.
Explanation:
Use Hess's law. Ca(s) + CO2(g) + 1/2O2(g) → CaCO3(s) ΔH = -812.8 kJ 2Ca(s) + O2(g) → 2CaO(s) ΔH = -1269.8 kJ We need to get rid of the Ca and O2 in the equations, so we need to change the equations so that they're on both sides so they "cancel" out, similar to a system of equations. I changed the second equation. Ca(s) + CO2(g) + 1/2O2(g) → CaCO3(s) ΔH = -812.8 kJ 2CaO(s) → 2Ca(s) + O2(g) ΔH = +1269.8 kJ The sign changes in the second equation above since the reaction changed direction. Next, we need to multiply the first equation by two in order to get the coefficients of the Ca and O2 to match those in the second equation. We also multiply the enthalpy of the first equation by 2. 2Ca(s) + 2CO2(g) + O2(g) → 2CaCO3(s) ΔH = -1625.6 kJ 2CaO(s) → 2Ca(s) + O2(g) ΔH = +1269.8 kJ Now we add the two equations. The O2 and 2Ca "cancel" since they're on opposite sides of the arrow. Think of it more mathematically. We add the two enthalpies and get 2CaO(s) + 2CO2(g) → 2CaCO3(s) and ΔH = -355.8 kJ. Finally divide by two to get the given equation: CaO(s) + CO2(g) → CaCO3(s) and ΔH = -177.9 kJ.
Mass of Sulphur dioxide : 256 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
S + O2 --> SO2 *
Required
Mass of Sulphur dioxide
Solution
mol of Sulphur (Ar=32 g/mol) :
mol = mass : Ar
mol = 128 : 32
mol = 4
From the equation, mol ratio S : SO2 = 1 : 1, so mol SO2 = 4
Mass of SO2 :
mass = mol x MW SO2
mass = 4 x 64
mass = 256 g
Answer:
b. 54.9%
Explanation:
An emerald gemstone has the formula Be₃Al₂Si₁₆O₁₈. We can find the mass of each element in 1 mole of Be₃Al₂Si₁₆O₁₈ by multiplying the molar mass of the element by its atomicity.
Be: 3 × 9.01 g = 27.03 g
Al: 2 × 26.98 g = 53.96 g
Si: 16 × 28.09 g = 449.4 g
O: 18 × 16.00 g = 288.0 g
Total mass = 818.4 g
The mass percentage of silicon is:
(449.4 g / 818.4 g) × 100% = 54.91%
