Sergio [31]3 years ago
6 0
To answer this problem, we use Hess' Law to calculate the overall enthalpy of the reactions. The goal is to add all the reactions such that the final reaction is C<span>5H12 (g) + 8O2 (g) → 5CO2 (g) + 6H2O (l) through cancellation adn multiplication. The first equation is multiplied by 5, the second one is multiplied by 6 and the third one is reversed. The final answer is -3538 J or -3.54 x10^3 kJ.</span>

Why LED is better option for testing the conduction of electricity?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Led is a light-emitting diode, a semiconductor diode that glows when a voltage is applied. So, there is always a sure result of whether a substance conducts electricity or not as the light glows. That is why it is a better option for testing conduction of electricity.

Describes two uses of surfactants at least one must be something that was not described in the passage
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

We don't have the passage.  A random sampling of surfactant uses includes:

  • removal of oily materials from objects (clothes and dishes)
  • forms remarkable structures called bubbles
  • Assists in forming emulsions (e.g., mayonaise and paints)

Explanation:

The structure of a surfactant makes one end of a molecule hydrophilic and the other end hydrophobic.  In water, they self-assemble into micelles, an arrangement in which the hydrophobic ends align towards the center, and the hydrophilic ends are pointed outwards to the water.  This self-assembly is apparant when bubbles are made.  The  molecules quickly align themselves such that the hyrophilic ends are oriented inwards towards a thin layer of water and the hydrophobic ends are pointed outward to the air.  This arrangement allows a mono-molecular sphere of water molecules to remain stable enough to float, reflect light, and please.  These same properties allow the inverse to occur.  Soap molecules surround a hydrophobic mass (e.g., the hamburger grease on your shirt) and solubilize it into small micelles which are then carried away in the surrounding water.

In a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen gases, the mole fraction of nitrogen is 0.333. If the partial pressure of hydrogen in the
notka56 [123]

Answer:

P_T=112.4torr

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since these problems about gas mixtures are based off Dalton's law in terms of mole fraction, partial pressure and total pressure, we can write the following for hydrogen, we are given its partial pressure:

P_{H_2}=x_{H_2}*P_T

And can be solved for the total pressure as follows:

P_T=\frac{P_{H_2}}{x_{H_2}}

However, we first calculate the mole fraction of hydrogen by subtracting that of nitrogen to 1 due to:

x_{H_2}+x_{N_2}=1\\\\x_{H_2}=1-0.333=0.667

Then, we can plug in to obtain the total pressure:

P_T=\frac{75.0torr}{0.667}\\\\P_T=112.4torr

Regards!
