Sodium metal is added to a solution of magnesium chloride. Will a reaction occur? If so, what reaction will take place?

What is the driving force for the movement of earths plates?

ElenaW [278]

Heat and gravity are fundamental to the process
The energy source for plate tectonics is Earth's internal heat while the forces moving the plates are the “ridge push” and “slab pull” gravity forces.

Hope I helped! :)

Iodine monochloride (ICl) has a higher boiling point than bromine (Br2) partly because iodine monochloride is a(n)

tekilochka [14]

Answer: polar molecule.

Explanation:

The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. The boiling point is dependent on the type of forces present.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativities of iodine and chlorine. Thus the molecules are bonded by strong dipole dipole forces. Thus a higher temperature is needed to generate enough vapor pressure.

Bromine $(Br_2)$ is a non polar molecule as there is no electronegativity difference between two bromine atoms. The molecules are bonded by weak vanderwaal forces and thus has low boiling point.

How much energy must be removed from a 94.4 g sample of benzene (molar mass= 78.11 g/mol) at 322.0 K to solidify the sample and

Kay [80]

Answer : The energy removed must be, 29.4 kJ

Explanation :

The process involved in this problem are :

$(1):C_6H_6(l)(322K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(l)(279K)\\\\(2):C_6H_6(l)(279K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(s)(279K)\\\\(3):C_6H_6(s)(279K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(s)(205K)$

The expression used will be:

$Q=[m\times c_{p,l}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]+[m\times \Delta H_{fusion}]+[m\times c_{p,s}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]$

where,

$Q$ = heat released for the reaction = ?

m = mass of benzene = 94.4 g

$c_{p,s}$ = specific heat of solid benzene = $1.51J/g^oC=1.51J/g.K$

$c_{p,l}$ = specific heat of liquid benzene = $1.73J/g^oC=1.73J/g.K$

$\Delta H_{fusion}$ = enthalpy change for fusion = $-9.8kJ/mol=-\frac{9.8\times 1000J/mol}{78g/mol}=-125.6J/g$

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

$Q=[94.4g\times 1.73J/g.K\times (279-322)K]+[94.4g\times -125.6J/g]+[94.4g\times 1.51J/g.K\times (205-279)K]$

$Q=-29427.312J=-29.4kJ$

Negative sign indicates that the heat is removed from the system.

Therefore, the energy removed must be, 29.4 kJ

Help!!! I need the answer for "explain how using the periodic table can help answer this question"

Tanzania [10]

Well a compound is 2 or more different molecules together. So if you see a periodic table you will see the elements to see if they are the same or not.
