The correct answer is option B. Where are the regions of electron density?

In the quantum mechanical model of the atom the exact location of an electron is unknown. But there is a probability of finding an electron in a given space. So in quantum mechanics instead of an electron we always refer to electron density, which is simply the probability of finding an electron in space.

The enthalpy of a pure liquid at 75oC is 100 J/mol. The enthalpy of the pure vapor of that substance at 75oC is 1000 J/mol. What
pentagon [3]

Answer:

900 J/mol

Explanation:

Data provided:

Enthalpy of the pure liquid at 75° C = 100 J/mol

Enthalpy of the pure vapor at 75° C = 1000 J/mol

Now,

the heat of vaporization is the the change in enthalpy from the liquid state to the vapor stage.

Thus, mathematically,

The heat of vaporization at 75° C

=  Enthalpy of the pure vapor at 75° C - Enthalpy of the pure liquid at 75° C

on substituting the values, we get

The heat of vaporization at 75° C = 1000 J/mol - 100 J/mol

or

The heat of vaporization at 75° C = 900 J/mol

Given below is the balanced equation for the combustion of decane. 2C10H22 (l) + 31O2 (g) --> 20CO2 (g) + 22H2O (g) What is t
Aleks [24]

Answer: The ratio of carbon dioxide molecules to oxygen molecules is 20 :31

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which hydrocarbons are burnt in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced combustion reaction is,:

2C_{10}H_{22}(l)+31O_2(g)\rightarrow 20CO_2(g)+22H_2O(g)

Thus the ratio of carbon dioxide molecules to oxygen molecules is 20 : 31

Why can scientists ignore the forces of attraction between particles in a gas under ordinary conditions
Alika [10]
<span>Scientists ignore the forces of attraction between particles in a gas under ordinary conditions</span><span> because the particles in a gas are apart and moving fast, rather than clustered and moving slow, therefore the forces of attraction are too weak to have a visible effect.</span>
