Answer:

To find out what water is made of, it helps to look at its chemical formula, which is H2O. This basically tells us that the water molecule is composed of two elements: hydrogen and oxygen or, more precisely, two hydrogen atoms (H2) and one oxygen atom (O). Hydrogen and oxygen are gases at room temperature.

Answer:

$\Delta G^o=-5.4032 kJ$

The temperature for $\Delta G^o=0[/tex is [tex]T=328.6 K$

Explanation:

The three thermodinamic properties (enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs's energy) are linked in the following formula:

$\Delta G^o=\Delta H^o + T*\Delta S^o$

Where:

$\Delta G^o$ is Gibbs's energy in kJ

$\Delta H^o$ is the enthalpy in kJ

$\Delta S^o$ is the entropy in kJ/K

$T$ is the temperature in K

Solving:

$\Delta G^o=-58.03 kJ - 298K*-0.1766 kJ/K$

$\Delta G^o=-5.4032 kJ$

For $\Delta G^o=0$ :

$0=\Delta H^o - T*\Delta S^o$

$\Delta H^o= T*\Delta S^o$

$T=\frac{\Delta H^o}{\Delta S^o}$

$T=\frac{-58.03 kJ}{-0.1766 kJ/K}$

$T=328.6 K$

To get moles. divide mass by molar mass.Molar mass of
Na is 23
and for Cl is 35.5.
the total molar mass of NaCl is 23+35.5 = 58.5mol/gUse the mass and divide by this number30.22g divide by 58.5mol/g and you will get 0.5166 mole.
Since the molecule has 1 Na to 1 Cl, and that the number of moles for NaCL is 0.5166. All of them would be 0.5166molesNa = 0.5166 x 1 = 0.5166molesCl = 0.5166 x 1 = 0.5166moles
to get number of atoms. Multiply your mole by Avogadro number which is 6.022x10^23Na = 0.5166 x 6.022E23 = 3.111x10^23Cl = 0.5166 x 6.022E23 = 3.111x10^23

Reptile [31]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Chris the Chemist was working in the lab, and he wanted to see what would happen if he put copper chloride into a Bunsen burner flame. As soon as he put it in the flame, it began to emit a green color. Which of these BEST describes this outcome?

A) The heat split the nucleus and created a new element.

B) As the copper chloride was heated, electrons were turned into neutrons.

C) As the electrons moved to a higher energy level, a photon of light is emitted.

D) When excited electrons return back to the ground state, a photon of light is emitted.

Answer:

D) When excited electrons return back to the ground state, a photon of light is emitted.

Explanation:

According to Bohr's model of the atom, electrons may absorb energy and move up to higher energy levels.

These electrons quickly return to ground state from such higher energy excited states thereby emitting the excess energy absorbed during excitation.

If the higher energy level is E2 and the ground state is E1 then the energy of the photon emitted when the electron descends from energy level E2 to E1 is;

ΔE = E2 - E1

This photon emitted accounts for the green colour of the copper salt observed when it was heated.
