Builders and dentists must store plaster of Paris,

Chemistry
1 answer:
eimsori [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

547 L of water vapour

Explanation:

Equation of reaction: 2[CaSO4.2H20] + Heat ---> 2[CaSO4.½H2O] + 3H20

From the equation of reaction above, 2 moles of gypsum when heated produces 2 moles of plaster of Paris and 3 moles of water vapour.

Molar mass of gypsum = 172 g/mol

Molar mass of H2O = 18 g/mol

Therefore, 2 * 172 g of gypsum produces 3 * 18 g of water vapour

i.e. 344 g of gypsum produces 54 g of H2O

2 Kg(2000 g) of gypsum will produce (54 * 2000)/344 g of water vapour = 313.95 of water vapour.

Volume of water vapour produced = mass/density

Volume of water vapour = 313.95 g/ 0.574 g/L = 547 L of water vapour

Therefore 547 L of water vapour are produced

What is the predominant intermolecular force in the liquid state of each of these compounds: ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4), and n
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The  predominant intermolecular force in the liquid state of each of these compounds:

ammonia (NH3)

methane (CH4)

and nitrogen trifluoride (NF3)

Explanation:

The types of intermolecular forces:

1.Hydrogen bonding: It is a weak electrostatic force of attraction that exists between the hydrogen atom and a highly electronegative atom like N,O,F.

2.Dipole-dipole interactions: They exist between the oppositely charged dipoles in a polar covalent molecule.

3. London dispersion forces exist between all the atoms and molecules.

NH3 ammonia consists of intermolecular H-bonding.

Methane has London dispersion forces.

Because both carbon and hydrogen has almost similar electronegativity values.

NF3 has dipole-dipole interactions due to the electronegativity variations between nitrogen and fluorine.

The flame in a torch used to cut metal is produced by burning acetylene (C2H2) in pure oxygen. Assuming the combustion of 1 mole
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

19.8 kg of C₂H₂ is needed

Explanation:

We solve this by a rule of three:

If 1251 kJ of heat are relased in the combustion of 1 mol of acetylene

95.5×10⁴ kJ of heat may be released by the combustion of

(95.5×10⁴ kJ . 1) /1251kJ = 763.4 moles of C₂H₂

Let's convert the moles to mass → 763.4 mol . 26 g/1 mol = 19848 g

If we convert the mass from g to kg →  19848 g . 1kg / 1000g = 19.8 kg

A sample of ice is heated continuously until it becomes a liquid, and then a gas. Its temperature is recorded throughout and a g
padilas [110]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: C. The specific latent heat of fusion

Explanation:

A. The specific latent heat of vaporization  Specific latent heat of vaporization indicates the transition from liquid to vapor, but we are not looking for this definition. This answer is wrong.

B. The specific heat indicates the amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of water 1°C, so this answer is wrong.

C. The specific latent heat of fusion . This heat indicate the transition from solid ie to liquid, so this is the right answer.

D. The internal energy measures the energy of the molecules of a substance, so this answer is wrong.
