Yes it could, but you'd have to set up the process very carefully.
I see two major challenges right away:
1). Displacement of water would not be a wise method, since rock salt
is soluble (dissolves) in water. So as soon as you start lowering it into
your graduated cylinder full of water, its volume would immediately start
to decrease. If you lowered it slowly enough, you might even measure
a volume close to zero, and when you pulled the string back out of the
water, there might be nothing left on the end of it.
So you would have to choose some other fluid besides water ... one in
which rock salt doesn't dissolve. I don't know right now what that could
be. You'd have to shop around and find one.
2). Whatever fluid you did choose, it would also have to be less dense
than rock salt. If it's more dense, then the rock salt just floats in it, and
never goes all the way under. If that happens, then you have a tough
time measuring the total volume of the lump.
So the displacement method could perhaps be used, in principle, but
it would not be easy.
Answer:
5010J
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass (m) = 15g
Heat of fusion (ΔHf) = 334J/g
Heat required (Q) =..?
The heat energy required to melt the ice can be obtained as follow:
Q = m·ΔHf
Q = 15 x 334
Q = 5010J
Therefore, the heat energy required to melt the ice is 5010J.
Answer:
12.
1 + 2 + 1 = 4 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 4 = 12 = 4 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 4 = 1 + 2 + 1
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
T =
= (11 + 273) K = 284 K, V = 45.0 L
m = 35 g
As molar mass of chlorine pentafluoride is 130.445 g/mol. Hence, number of moles of chlorine pentafluoride are as follows.
No. of moles =
= 
= 0.268 mol
Now, using the ideal gas equation we will find the pressure as follows.
PV = nRT

P = 0.139 atm
Thus, we can conclude that pressure of chlorine pentafluoride gas in the given reaction vessel after the reaction is 0.139 atm.
