Answer:
It does not always retain the properties of the substances that make it up
Explanation:
Answer:
first number is the correct answer
P₄ + 10Cl₂ ---> 4PCl₅
stoichiometry of P₄ to PCl₅ is 1:4
number of moles of P₄ reacted - 28.0 g / 124 g/mol = 0.22 mol
Cl₂ is in excess therefore P₄ is the limiting reactant, amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present
according to molar ratio of 1:4
number of PCl₅ moles formed -0.22 mol x 4 = 0.88 mol
0.88 mol of PCl₅ is formed
Answer:
c. contraction
Explanation:
Heating will cause substances to expand, or change their state (like solid to liquid) or it may be a chemical reaction.
Answer:
Gases are easily compressed. We can see evidence of this in Table 1 in Thermal Expansion of Solids and Liquids, where you will note that gases have the largest coefficients of volume expansion. The large coefficients mean that gases expand and contract very rapidly with temperature changes. In addition, you will note that most gases expand at the same rate, or have the same β. This raises the question as to why gases should all act in nearly the same way, when liquids and solids have widely varying expansion rates.
The answer lies in the large separation of atoms and molecules in gases, compared to their sizes, as illustrated in Figure 2. Because atoms and molecules have large separations, forces between them can be ignored, except when they collide with each other during collisions. The motion of atoms and molecules (at temperatures well above the boiling temperature) is fast, such that the gas occupies all of the accessible volume and the expansion of gases is rapid. In contrast, in liquids and solids, atoms and molecules are closer together and are quite sensitive to the forces between them.
