Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by the vapors which are present on the surface of a liquid.

For example, vapor pressure of water at room temperature is 0.0313 atm.

On the other hand, the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals atmospheric pressure is known as boiling point.

For example, boiling point of water at room temperature is 100^{o}C.

Thus, we can conclude that vapor pressure can be described as the pressure exerted by a gas above the surface of its liquid.

How many atoms are in 3 NaCl?
Assoli18 [71]

Explanation:

Sodium Chloride or NaCl is made up of two elements, sodium (or Na) and chlorine (or Cl). A molecule of sodium chloride, NaCl, consists of one atom each of sodium and chlorine. Hence, each molecule of NaCl has 2 atoms total.

A compound is determined to have the empirical formula C2OH4. If the molar mass of the compound is 132 g/mol, determine the mole
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer: The molecular formula will be C_6O_3H_{12}

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Empirical weight of C_2OH_{4} is 12\times 2+16\times 1+1\times 4=44g

Molecular mass of compound is = 132 g

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{132}{44}=3

The molecular formula will be=3\times C_2OH_4=C_6O_3H_{12}

At high temperatures phosphine (PH_3) dissociates into phosphorus and hydrogen by the following reaction: 4PH3 rightarrow P_4 +
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:a)p4=0.75mol

H2=4.5mol

B)PH3=1×10^7mole

P4=0.25×10^7mole

H2=1.5×10^7mole

Time taken for 3mol of phosphine to react is 54 ×10^7s

Explanation:From the balanced chemical equation

4PH3____P4+6H2

From Gay lussac law ,when gases combines

,They do so in a ratio which bear a simple ratio with their products,if gases.

So it means from the equation above

4 mol of PH3 will form 1mol of P4 and 6 mol of H2

Meaning that if 4mol of PH3 gives 1mol of P4

Then 3mol of PH3 will give 1/4 mol or 0.75 mol of P4 .

In the same vein,3mol of PH3 will give 6×3/4 mol of H2= 4.5 Mol of H2

B) molar concentration =mole/volume

Meaning mole=molar concentration ×volume

Molar concentration is given as 5Km/m^3=5000mol/m^3

Volume=2L =2×1000=2000m^3

Nos of moles=5000×2000=10^7moles

So for P4,nos of moles =1/4×10^7=0.25×10^7

ForH2 ,6/4 ×10^7=1.5×10^7 moles

Rate= volume/time

Time taken for reaction will be volume/rate=2000/3.715×10^6

=54×10^7s
