Answer:
d. why matter exists
Explanation:
The kind of questions that chemistry CANNOT answer is "why matter exists".
In Chemistry, question of how the properties, composition and structure of substances are is answered. Also, the transformations that these substances undergo, and the energy that they release or absorbe during the transformation processes are revealed in chemistry.
Chemistry can answer the question of what forms of matter exists but cannot answer why matter actually exists.
Answer:
Ethane would have a higher boiling point.
Explanation:
In this case, for the lewis structures, we have to keep in mind that all atoms must have <u>8 electrons</u> (except hydrogen). Additionally, each carbon would have <u>4 valence electrons</u>, with this in mind, for methane we have to put the hydrogens around the carbon, and with this structure, we will have 8 electrons for the carbon. In ethane, we will have a bond between the carbons, therefore we have to put three hydrogens around each carbon to obtain 8 electrons for each carbon.
Now, the main difference between methane and ethane is an <u>additional carbon</u>. In ethane, we have an additional carbon, therefore due to this additional carbon, we will have <u>more area of interaction</u> for ethane. If we have more area of interaction we have to give <u>more energy</u> to the molecule to convert from liquid to gas, so, the ethane will have a higher boiling point.
I hope it helps!
Answer:
1.209g of MgO participates
Explanation:
In this problem, we have 0.030 moles of MgO that participates in a particular reaction.
And we are asked to solve for the mass of MgO that participates, that means, we need to convert moles to grams.
To convert moles to grams we need to use molar mass of the compound:
<em>1 atom of Mg has a molar mass of 24.3g/mol</em>
<em>1 atom of O has a molar mass of 16g/mol</em>
<em />
That means molar mass of MgO is 24.3g/mol + 16g/mol = 40.3g/mol
And mass of 0.030 moles of MgO is:
0.030 moles MgO * (40.3g/mol) =
<h3>1.209g of MgO participates</h3>
Answer:
The solution is not ideal and shows a positive deviation from Raoult’s law since Psolution (experimental) > Psolution (actual).
Explanation:
Number of moles of CS2 = 3.95g/76.13gmol-1 = 0.0519 moles
Number of moles of acetone = 2.43g/58.08gmol-1 = 0.0418 moles
Total number of moles = 0.0937 moles
Mole fraction of CS2 = 0.0519/0.0937 = 0.5538
Mole fraction of acetone = 0.0418/0.0937 = 0.4461
From Raoult’s law;
PCS2 = 0.5538 × 515 torr = 285.207 torr
Pacetone = 0.4461 × 332 torr = 148.1052 torr
Total pressure = 285.207 torr + 148.1052 torr = 433.3 torr
