What are the source of error in determination of boiling point and melting point

Chemistry
1 answer:
Neko [114]3 years ago

<span> purity of the substance is usually the main error (for example: water with impurities will have m.p. less than 273K or 0 degree celcius while it's b.p. will be greater than 373K or 100 degree celcius). </span>
<span>-> air/ room temperature (it takes longer to cook in mountains and shorter at beaches) </span>
<span>-> parallax error (error by determining the meniscus of the thermometer) </span>
<span>and many more..</span>

2. Consider the reaction 2 Cg H18 (4) +250â (9) ⺠16 co, (g) + 18 HâO(g) la How many moles of H20co) are produced, when |--16:1
Sladkaya [172]

Answer :

(a) The moles of water produced are 145.35 moles.

(b) The mass of oxygen needed are 3080.8 grams.

<u>Solution for part (a) : Given,</u>

Moles of C_8H_{18} = 16.15 moles

First we have to calculate the moles of H_2O

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2C_8H_{18}+25O_2\rightarrow 16CO_2+18H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of C_8H_{18} react to give 18 moles of H_2O

So, 16.15 moles of C_8H_{18} react to give \frac{16.15}{2}\times 18=145.35 moles of H_2O

The moles of water produced are 145.35 moles.

<u>Solution for part (b) : Given,</u>

Mass of C_8H_{18} = 878 g

Molar mass of C_8H_{18} = 114 g/mole

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of C_8H_{18}.

\text{ Moles of }C_8H_{18}=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_8H_{18}}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_8H_{18}}=\frac{878g}{114g/mole}=7.702moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of O_2

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2C_8H_{18}+25O_2\rightarrow 16CO_2+18H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of C_8H_{18} react with 25 moles of O_2

So, 7.702 moles of C_8H_{18} react with \frac{7.702}{2}\times 25=96.275 moles of O_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of O_2.

\text{ Mass of }O_2=\text{ Moles of }O_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }O_2

\text{ Mass of }O_2=(96.275moles)\times (32g/mole)=3080.8g

The mass of oxygen needed are 3080.8 grams.

Explain with examples following characteristics of chemical reactions: a. Change of colour b. Evolution of gas c. Change of smel
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. change of colour:

A chemical reaction rearranges the constituent atoms of the reactants to create different substances as products. The products have different molecular structures than the reactants. Different atoms and molecules radiate different colours of light. Hence, there usually is a change in colour during a chemical reaction.

Eg: copper reactions with the elements

b. Evolution of gas:

A gas evolution reaction is a chemical reaction in which one of the end products is a gas such as oxygen or carbon dioxide.

Eg: ammonium hydroxide breaks down to water and ammonia gas.

c. Change of smell :

Production of an Odor Some chemical changes produce new smells.  ... The formation of gas bubbles is another indicator that a chemical change may have occured.

Eg: The chemical change that occurs when an egg is rotting produces the smell of sulfur.

d. Change of state:

A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances, also called reactants, are converted to one or more different substances, known as products.

Eg: candle wax (solid) melts initially to produce molten wax (liquid)

How many moles are in 297g of nh3?<br><br> Please show work, will give brainliest.
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

17.5moles

Explanation:

The number of moles in a substance can be calculated by using the formula;

Number of moles (n) = mass (m) ÷ molar mass (MM)

According to this question, mass of ammonia (NH3) = 297g

Molar Mass of NH3 = 14 + 1(3)

= 17g/mol

n = 297/17

n = 17.47

Number of moles of NH3 = 17.5moles

-FeS2+-O2-&gt;-Fe2O3+-SO2 What coefficient should be placed in front of SO2 to balance the equation?
NISA [10]

Answer:

8 should be placed in front of SO₂.

Explanation:

The easiest way to solve this question is by writing the <u>entire</u> balanced equation:

4FeS₂ + 11O₂ -> 2Fe₂O₃ + 8SO₂

We can achieve this by first balancing the Fe, then S, and finally the O.

We can also double check our answer by counting the number of each element on both sides:

-Reactants: 4 Fe, 8 S, 22 O

-Products: 4 Fe 8 S, 22 O

Since they match, our equation is balanced, and the coefficient in front of SO₂ is 8.
