Answer:

Molecules in both the metal and the surrounding air will start moving at higher speeds.

Explanation:

Temperature is defined as a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a body.

The greater the temperature of a body, the greater the average kinetic energy of the molecules of the body and the greater the speed of the particles of the body.

A metal at 150°C will witness an increase in the average kinetic energy of its molecules, the molecules will speed up as temperature increases.

Similarly, the hot metal plate releases heat to the surrounding air molecules by radiation causing the surrounding air molecules to experience an increase in temperature and average kinetic energy. Thus the air molecules surrounding the metal hot plate also speed up.

What is the mass of 0.714 moles of Mercury (I) Chloride (Hg2Cl2)?

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Data:

m (Sample Mass) = ?
n (Number of moles) = 0.714 mol
MM (Molar Mass) of Mercury (I) Chloride ( $Hg_{2} Cl_{2}$ )
Hg = 2*200.59 = 401.18 amu
Cl = 2*35.453 = 70.906 amu
----------------------------------------
Molar Mass $Hg_{2} Cl_{2}$ = 401.18 + 70.906 = 472.086 ≈ 472.09 amu or 472.09 g/mol

Formula:

$n = \frac{m}{MM}$

Solving:

$n = \frac{m}{MM}$
$0.714 = \frac{m}{472.09}$
$m = 337.07226\:\to\:\boxed{\boxed{m\approx 337 g}} \end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Answer:
By approximation would be letter D) 337.2 g

An important reaction that takes place in a blast furnace during the production of iron is the formation of iron metal and CO2 f

ladessa [460]

Answer: Mass of $Fe_2O_3$ required to form 930 kg of iron is 1328 kg

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For iron:

Given mass of iron = 930 kg = 930000 g (1kg=1000g)

Molar mass of iron = 56 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of iron}=\frac{930000g}{56g/mol}=16607mol$

The chemical equation for the production of iron follows:

$Fe_2O_3+3CO\rightarrow 2Fe+3CO_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of iron are produced by = 1 mole of $Fe_2O_3$

So, 16607 moles of iron will be produced by = $\frac{1}{2}\times 16607=8303moles$ of $Fe_2O_3$

Now, calculating the mass of $Fe_2O_3$ from equation 1, we get:

Mass of $Fe_2O_3$ = $moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=8303\times 160=1328480g=1328kg$

Thus mass of $Fe_2O_3$ required to form 930 kg of iron is 1328 kg

PLEASE HELP AND EXPLAIN!Calculate the energy required to heat 187.0 g of ammonia from 36.1 °C to 52.9 °C. Assume the specific he

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

$E=1.48x10^4J$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the energy implied in a heating process is computed by using the following equation:

$E=mC(T_f-T_i)$

Whereas m is the mass, C the specific heat and T the temperature. In such a way, by plugging in the given mass, specific heat and temperatures, we obtain the following energy:

$E=187.0g*4.703\frac{J}{g\°C} (52.9\°C-36.1\°C)\\\\E=1.48x10^4J$

Considering that the specific heat can by used by unit of °C or K because their difference is equivalent.

Regards!
