What is the specific latent heat of fusion of ice if it takes 863 kJ to convert 4.6 kg of ice into water at 0 C?

Chemistry
1 answer:
charle [14.2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is 187.7 J/Jg.

Explanation:

The formula for finding the specific heat of fusion is,  

Specific heat of fusion = Q/m

Here Q is the heat energy added, signified in kJ, and m is the mass of the object in kg.  

Based on the given information, the heat energy added or Q is 869 kJ and the mass of the ice is 4.6 Kg

Now putting the values in the formula we get,  

Specific heat of fusion = Q/m

Specific heat of fusion = 863 kJ / 4.6 Kg = 187.7 J/Kg

Draw all possible Newman projections results from the rotation of C3-C4 bond in 2-methylpentane and label all the conformations.
Elden [556K]

Answer:

See the image Below

Explanation:

Single C-C bonds have free rotation and thus Newman Projections are quite useful for understanding the different 3D conformations of a molecule.

For any Newman Projection you have 2 bonded carbons, one <em>in front </em>of the other, therefore you rotate the bond by rotating the groups that are bonded to the carbons. i. e. in the 2-Methylpentane <em>(viewing the C3-C4 bond)</em> the carbons chosen are the 3rd and the 4th then you look to which are the other groups bonded; <em>2 H and an isopropyl for the 3rd one, and 2 H and a Methyl for the 4th one</em>.

The different rotations of those groups receive different names:

  • <em>Anti Conformation: </em>Main groups of the two Carbons are 180º apart from one another. Making this the most stable conformation of the molecule. <em>(Taking into account steric effects)</em>
  • <em>Gauche Conformation: </em>Principal groups are 60º apart from each other. Since are 6 spaces between groups (360º/6)=60º. It is less stable than an Anti conformation due to the same reason.
  • <em>Eclipsed Conformation: </em>The less stable conformation since the main groups are confronted.

Are molecules with identical chemical formulas but different three-dimensional structures
Radda [10]
<span>Molecules are having the same chemical formula same number of atom but different three dimensional shapes are called <u>isomer</u>. Cis trans isomers maintain the same covalent partnerships,but atom may arranged differently.There are two or more compounds arranged in same molecular formula but different arranged atoms are seen in this molecule with different structure of it.</span>

Is powdered sports drink ionic or covalent ? 10pts !
Dahasolnce [82]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Ionic

Powdered sports drink is<u> ionic </u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Sports drinks are beverages whose purpose is to help athletes replace water, electrolytes, and energy before and after training or competition.</u></em>
  • Sport drinks contain may contain water, fuel and electrolytes which are used to regulate fluid balances in the body. Electrolytes are molecules that have electrical charge called ions, such as calcium , potassium, sodium and chloride ions.
  • <em><u>Ionic compounds are made up of ions, that is positively charged ions and negatively charged ions which are joined together by ionic bonds. Electrolyte in sport drinks forms ionic bonds.</u></em>

How many moles of air must escape from a 10-m  8.0-m  5.0-m room when the temperature is raised from 0c to 20c? assume the p
slega [8]
Data:

p = 1 atm
V = 10 m * 8 m * 5 m = 400 m^3 = 400,000 liter

To = 0 + 273.15K = 273.15K
Tf = 20 + 273.15K = 293.15K

No - Nf =?

2) Formula

pV = NRT => N = pV / (RT)

3) solution

No = pV / (RTo)

Nf = pV / (RTf)

=> No - Nf = [pv / R] [ 1 / To - 1 / Tf ]

=> No - Nf = [1atm*400,000liter / 0.0821 atm*liter/K*mol ] [ 1 / 273.15 - 1 / 293.15]

No - Nf = 1216.9 moles ≈ 1217 moles

Answer: 1217 moles

A student drew a diagram of the quantum model of an atom, as shown. A small circle is shown. Six light gray spheres and six dark
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The diagram is incorrect because there is only a single type of particle at the center of the atom.

Explanation:

The small circle at the centre of the sphere which contains six light gray spheres and six dark gray spheres represents the nucleus of the atom which is found at the centre of the atom.

The nucleus contains only one type of particle which is the proton. Hence the representation of two particles at the centre of the circle makes the model incorrect.
