While working in the chemistry lab, you dissolve 2.5g of sodium hydroxide chips into a beaker containing 50mL of water. As you p

ick up the beaker to add it to a separate solution, you notice the outside of the beaker is very warm. What explains this rise in temperature?

Answer:

The lattice enthalpy of sodium hydroxide is less than the sum of hydration enthalpies of hydroxide ions and sodium ions.

Explanation:

Lattice enthalpy is defined as heat energy required to break 1 mole of crystal lattice.

Hydration enthalpy is defined as amount energy released when 1 mole of ions undergo hydration (surrounding of water molecules).It is always negative.

Enthalpy of solution = Lattice enthalpy + hydration enthalpy

  • If amplitude of lattice enthalpy > hydration enthalpy , enthalpy of solution will positive.Hence, solution will feel cool.
  • If magnitude Lattice enthalpy < hydration enthalpy, enthalpy of solution will negative.Hence solution will feel warm or hot.

Reaction between sodium hydroxide and water is an example of an exothermic reaction. During this process sodium hydroxide dissociates into sodium ions and hydroxide ions into the water.

The rise in temperature is due to hydration enthalpy of hydroxide ions and sodium ions is greater than that of the lattice enthalpy of the sodium hydroxide. This is the reason behind the warmth of the sodium hydroxide solution.

How many grams of F− must be added to a cylindrical water reservoir having a diameter of 2.02 × 102 m and a depth of 87.32 m?
aksik [14]

Complete Question:

To aid in the prevention of tooth decay, it is recommended that drinking water contain 0.800 ppm fluoride. How many grams of F− must be added to a cylindrical water reservoir having a diameter of 2.02 × 102 m and a depth of 87.32 m?

Answer:

2.23x10⁶ g

Explanation:

The concentration of the fluoride (F⁻) must be 0.800 ppm, which is 0.800 parts per million, so the water must have 0.800 g of F⁻/ 1000000 g of the solution. The density of the water at room temperature is 997 kg/m³ = 997x10³ g/m³. So, the concentration of the fluoride will be:

0.800 g of F⁻/ 1000000 g of the solution * 997x10³ g/m³

0.7976 g/m³

The volume of the reservoir is the volume of the cylinder: area of the base * depth. The base is a circumference, which has an area:

A = πR², where R is the radius = 1.01x10² m (half of the diameter)

A = π*(1.01x10²)²

A = 32047 m²

The volume is then:

V = 32047 * 87.32

V = 2.7983x10⁶ m³

The mass of the F⁻ is the concentration multiplied by the volume:

m = 0.7976 * 2.7983x10⁶

m = 2.23x10⁶ g

a 6.7 volume of air, initially at 23 degrees celsius and .98 atm, is compressed to 2.7 L while heated to 125 degrees celsius. Wh
Annette [7]
Data:

V1 = 6.7 liter
T1 = 23° = 23 + 273.15 K = 300.15 K
P1 = 0.98 atm

V2 = 2.7 liter
T2 = 125° = 125 + 273.15 K = 398.15 K
P2 = ?

Formula:

Combined law of ideal gases: P1 V1 / T1 = P2 V2 / T2

=> P2 = P1 V1 T2 / (T1 V2)

P2 = 0.98 atm * 6.7 liter * 398.15 K / (300.15K * 2.7 liter)

P2 = 3.22 atm

joja [24]
The first step is to balance the equation:


<span>C3H8 + 5O2 ---> 3CO2 + 4H2O


Check the balance


element          left side        right side

C                    3                  3  
H                    8                  4*2 = 8
O                    5*2=10        3*2 + 4 = 10


Then you have the molar ratios:


3 mol C3H8 : 5 mol O2 : 3 mol CO2 : 4 mol H2O


Now you have 40 moles of O2 so you make the proportion:

40.0 mol O2 * [3 mol CO2 / 5 mol O2] = 24.0 mol CO2.


Answer: option D. 24.0 mol CO2

Calculate the number of atoms in 3 moles of carbon atoms​
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

1,806,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms.

Explanation:

1 mol of anything is 6.022*10^23 units

1 mol carbon atoms = 6.022*10^23 carbon atoms

3 mol carbon atoms = 3*6.022*10^23 = 1.8*10^24 atoms

Correctly - your answer should have only 1 significant digit: 2 * 10^24 atoms.
