A sample of 42 mL of carbon dioxide gas was placed in a piston in order to maintain a constant 101 kPa of pressure.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 33.4 ml

Explanation:

Data

volume 1 = V1 = 42 ml

temperature 1 = T1 = 20°C

temperature 2 = T2 = -60°C

Volume 2 = V2 = x

Process

1.- Convert celsius to kelvin

T1 = 20 + 273 = 293°K

T2 = -60 + 273 = 233°K

2.- Use the Charles' law to solve this problem

$\frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2}$

Solve for V2

V2 = $\frac{V1T2}{T1}$

3.- Substitution

V2 = $\frac{(42)(233)}{293}$

4.- Simplification

V2 = $\frac{9786}{293}$

5.- Result

V2 = 33.4ml

Considering that the mantle is 44.8% oxygen and 21.5% silicon by mass, calculate the mole ratio of oxygen atoms to silicon atoms

horrorfan [7]

The mantle has a mass of around $4.278 X 10 ^2^4 kg$ that is around 68.4% of earth's mass.

So to calculate moles we need to first find out the mass of oxygen and silicon present in mantle. It is given that oxygen is 44.8% by mass in mantle and 21.5% by mass in mantle, therefore to calculate its mass, we need to use $\text{mass percentage }=\frac{\text{mole of solute}}{\text{mass of solution}}\times100$

Now, to calculate mass percentage of oxygen

$44.8 =\frac{x}{4.278X10^2^4kg}\times100$

$x= 191.65\times10^2^2kg$

Similarly the mass of silicon can be calculated

$21.5 =\frac{x}{4.278X10^2^4kg}\times100$

$x=91.977\times10^2^2kg$

Now, the moles of any substance is calculated by

$\text{moles}= \frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{molar mass}}$

$\text{moles of oxygen}= \frac{191.65\times10^2^2kg}{2.6566962\times10^-^2^6kg}$

where, mass of oxygen in kilograms is $2.6566962\times10^-^2^6kg$

So, $\text{moles of oxygen}=72.1384\times10^4^8\text{moles of O}$

Similarly $\text{moles of silicon}= \frac{91.977\times10^2^2kg}{4.663\times10^-^2^6kg}$

$\text{moles of silicon}=19.724\times10^4^8\text{moles of Si}$

Now, to calculate mole ratio we need to divide every moles to the lowest calculated mole that is the moles of Si and round it off to the nearest whole number.

$\text{mole ratio of oxygen}= \frac{72.138\times10^4^8kg}{19.724\times10^4^8kg}$

$=3.65\approx 4$

$\text{mole ratio of Silicon}=\frac{19.724\times10^4^8}{19.724\times10^4^8}$

$=1$

$\text{Mole ratio of Oxygen : Mole ratio of Silicon} = 4:1$

PLSSSSS HELP I DONT GET THIS PROBLEMMMM

Aleks [24]

Answer:

C. 7370 joules.

Explanation:

There is a mistake in the statement. Correct form is described below:

<em>Using the above data table and graph, calculate the total energy in Joules required to raise the temperature of 15 grams of ice at -5.00 °C to water at 35 °C. </em>

The total energy needed to raise the temperature is the combination of latent and sensible heats, all measured in joules, and represented by the following model:

$Q = m\cdot [c_{i} \cdot (T_{2}-T_{1})+L_{f} + c_{w}\cdot (T_{3}-T_{2})]$ (1)

Where:

$m$ - Mass of the sample, in grams.

$c_{i}$ - Specific heat of ice, in joules per gram-degree Celsius.

$c_{w}$ - Specific heat of water, in joules per gram-degree Celsius.

$L_{f}$ - Latent heat of fusion, in joules per gram.

$T_{1}$ - Initial temperature of the sample, in degrees Celsius.

$T_{2}$ - Melting point of water, in degrees Celsius.

$T_{3}$ - Final temperature of water, in degrees Celsius.

$Q$ - Total energy, in joules.

If we know that $m = 15\,g$ , $c_{i} = 2.06\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ , $c_{w} = 4.184\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ , $L_{f} = 334.72\,\frac{J}{g}$ , $T_{1} = -5\,^{\circ}C$ , $T_{2} = 0\,^{\circ}C$ and $T_{3} = 35\,^{\circ}C$ , then the final energy to raise the temperature of the sample is:

$Q = (15\,g)\cdot \left[\left(2.06\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (5\,^{\circ}C)+ 334.72\,\frac{J}{g} + \left(4.184\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C}\right)\cdot (35\,^{\circ}C) \right]$

$Q = 7371.9\,J$

Hence, the correct answer is C.
