Answer:

Recycling and reuse of materials

Explanation:

One of the greatest problems facing the human population is the problem of solid waste disposal. The menace of solid waste disposal has led to the idea of landfills. Land fills are depressions on the earth surface prepared for the purpose of solid waste disposal.

The most important approach towards solid waste disposal is the idea of recycling of materials. A material can be collected after use and processed into the same material or serve as a precursor in another manufacturing process. This means that no waste is generated as the materials which are supposed to be disposed of as solid waste are processed into other useful materials. This will reduce the volume of solid wastes generated that may need to be disposed in a landfill.

Compared to an atom of C-12, an atom of C-14 has

KonstantinChe [14]

Explanation:

Carbon-12 atoms have stable nuclei because of the 1:1 ratio of protons and neutrons.

Carbon-14 atoms have nuclei which are unstable. C-14 atoms will undergo alpha decay and produce atoms of N-14. Carbon-14 dating can be used to determine the age of artifacts which are not more than 50,000 years old.

Propane gas, C3H8, is sometimes used as a fuel. In order to measure its energy output as a fuel a 1.860 g sample was combined wi

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The heat of the reaction is 105.308 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

Let the heat released during reaction be q.

Heat gained by water: Q

Mass of water ,m= 1kg = 1000 g

Heat capacity of water ,c= 4.184 J/g°C

Change in temperature = ΔT = 26.061°C - 25.000°C=1.061 °C

Q=mcΔT

Heat gained by bomb calorimeter =Q'

Heat capacity of bomb calorimeter ,C= 4.643 J/g°C

Change in temperature = ΔT'= ΔT= 26.061°C - 25.000°C=1.061 °C

Q'=CΔT'=CΔT

Total heat released during reaction is equal to total heat gained by water and bomb calorimeter.

q= -(Q+Q')

q = -mcΔT - CΔT=-ΔT(mc+C)

$q=-1.061^oC(1000 g\times 4.184J/g^oC+4.643 J/^oC )=-4,444.15J=-4.444 kJ$

Moles of propane = $\frac{1.860 g}{44 g/mol}=0.0422 mol$

0.0422 moles of propane on reaction with oxygen releases 4.444 kJ of heat.

The heat of the reaction will be:

$\frac{4.444 kJ}{0.0422 mol}=105.308 kJ/mol$

1. A sample of polystyrene is found to have a number-average molar mass of 89,440 g mol−1 . Neglecting contributions from end gr

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The weight-average molar mass of polystyrene is 134,160 g/mol.

Explanation:

Molar mass of the monomer styrene , $C_8H_8$ , M=104 g/mol

Given , number average molar mass of the polymer , M'= 89,440 g/mol

Degree of polymerization = n

$n=\frac{M'}{M}=\frac{89,440 g/mol}{104 g/mol}=860$

The weight-average molar mass = $M_{avg}=?$

Molar mass dispersity is ratio of weight-average molar mass to the number average molar mass of the polymer.

$\text{Molar mass dispersity}=\frac{M_{avg}}{M'}$

$1.5=\frac{M_{avg}}{89,440 g/mol}$

$M_{avg}=89,440 g/mol\times 1.5 = 134,160 g/mol$

The weight-average molar mass of polystyrene is 134,160 g/mol.

Calculate the molar mass of a gas

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

MOLAR MASS = 32 g/mol

Explanation:

Condition of standard temperature and pressure(STP) are as follow:

Temperature = 273 K

Pressure = 1 atm (or 100000 Pa)

Here atm is atmosphere and Pa is Pascal

STP conditions arte used for measuring gas density and volume using Ideal Gas Law.Here 1 mole of ideal gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

According toi Ideal Gas Equation :

PV = nRT

where P = pressure, n= number of moles, V = volume ,R= Ideal Gas Constant and T= temperature

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}$

From question:

V=280 ml = 0.28 L

P = 1 atm

R=0.08205 L atm/K mol

T=273 K

Putting values in above formula :

$n=\frac{1\times .280}{0.08205\times 273}$

n = 0.0125 moles

Now $n=\frac{given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}$

$Molar\ mass=\frac{given\ mass}{n}$

given mass = 0.4 g (given)

$Molar\ mass=\frac{0.4}{0.0125}$

On solving we get:

Molar mass = 32 g/mol
