If a gas is 16 times as heavy as hydrogen which will diffuse faster and by what ratio​

Answer:

1. Hydrogen will diffuse faster.

2. The ratio of diffusion of hydrogen gas to that of the unknown gas is 4 : 1

Explanation:

Let the rate of diffusion of hydrogen gas, H2 be R1

Let the molar mass of H2 be M1

Let the rate of diffusion of the unknown gas be R2.

Let the molar mass of the unknown gas be M2.

Molar mass of H2 (M1) = 2x1 =2g/mol

Molar mass of unknown gas (M2) = 16 times that of H2

= 16 x 2 = 32g/mol

1. Determination of the gas that will diffuse faster. This is illustrated below:

R1/R2 = √(M2/M1)

R1/R2 = √(32/2)

R1/R2 = √16

R1/R2 = 4

Cross multiply

R1 = 4R2

From the above calculations, we can see that the rate of diffusion H2 (R1) is four times the rate of diffusion of the unknown gas (R2).

Therefore, hydrogen will diffuse faster.

2. Again, from the calculations made above, the ratio of diffusion of hydrogen (R1) to that of the unknown gas (R2) is given by;

R1/R2 = 4

Therefore, the ratio of diffusion of hydrogen (R1) to that of the unknown gas (R2) is:

4 : 1

How much heat energy, in kilojoules, is required to convert 72.0 gg of ice at −−18.0 ∘C∘C to water at 25.0 ∘C∘C ? Express your a
Ghella [55]

Answer: The enthalpy change is 34.3 kJ

Explanation:

The conversions involved in this process are :

(1):H_2O(s)(-18^0C)\rightarrow H_2O(s)(0^0C)\\\\(2):H_2O(s)(0^0C)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(0^0C)\\\\(3):H_2O(l)(0^0C)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(25^0C)

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change.

\Delta H=[m\times c_{s}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]+n\times \Delta H_{fusion}+[m\times c_{l}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy change = ?

m = mass of water = 72.0  g

c_{s} = specific heat of ice = 2.09J/g^0C

c_{l} = specific heat of liquid water = 4.184J/g^0C

n = number of moles of water = \frac{\text{Mass of water}}{\text{Molar mass of water}}=\frac{72.0g}{18g/mole}=4.00moles

\Delta H_{fusion} = enthalpy change for fusion = 6010 J/mole

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get

\Delta H=[72.0g\times 2.09J/g^0C\times (0-(-18)^0C]+4.00mole\times 6010J/mole+[72.0g\times 4.184J/g^)C\times (25-0)^0C]\Delta H=34279.8J=34.3kJ        (1 KJ = 1000 J)

Therefore, the enthalpy change is 34.3 kJ

What is the mass of an object with a net force of 10 N accelerating at 2 m/s^2??
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

5kg

Explanation:

Force = Mass x acceleration

F = ma

m = F/a = 10N/2m/s^2

m = 10/2 = 5kg

The standard unit for mass = Kilogram
