Answer:

Red phosphorus and white phosphorus are two the most common and important allotropes of phosphorus. Red phosphorus is thermally more stable than white phosphorus. It is a white waxy solid. ... It turns yellow in colour in exposure to light, hence, it is also called as yellow phosphorus.

mixture of N 2 And H2 Gases weighs 13.22 g and occupies a volume of 24.62 L at 300 K and 1.00 atm.Calculate the mass percent of

anygoal [31]

Answer: The mass percent of nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas is 91.41 % and 8.59 % respectively.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of the gaseous mixture = 1.00 atm

V = Volume of the gaseous mixture = 24.62 L

n = number of moles of the gaseous mixture = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = Temperature of the gaseous mixture = 300 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.00atm\times 24.62L=n_{mix}\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 300K\\\\n_{mix}=\frac{1.00\times 24.62}{0.0821\times 300}=0.9996mol$

We are given:

Total mass of the mixture = 13.22 grams

Let the mass of nitrogen gas be 'x' grams and that of hydrogen gas be '(13.22 - x)' grams

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

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

For nitrogen gas:

Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28 g/mol

$\text{Moles of nitrogen gas}=\frac{x}{28}mol$

For hydrogen gas:

Molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2 g/mol

$\text{Moles of hydrogen gas}=\frac{(13.22-x)}{2}mol$

Equating the moles of the individual gases to the moles of mixture:

$0.9996=\frac{x}{28}+\frac{(13.22-x)}{2}\\\\x=12.084g$

To calculate the mass percentage of substance in mixture we use the equation:

$\text{Mass percent of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Mass of mixture}}\times 100$

Mass of the mixture = 13.22 g

For nitrogen gas:

Mass of nitrogen gas = x = 12.084 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Mass percent of nitrogen gas}=\frac{12.084g}{13.22g}\times 100=91.41\%$

For hydrogen gas:

Mass of hydrogen gas = (13.22 - x) = (13.22 - 12.084) g = 1.136 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Mass percent of hydrogen gas}=\frac{1.136g}{13.22g}\times 100=8.59\%$

Hence, the mass percent of nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas is 91.41 % and 8.59 % respectively.

What amount of carbon dioxide (in moles) is produced from the reaction of 2.24 moles of ethanol with excess oxygen?

algol13

Answer : The amount of carbon dioxide produced is, 197.12 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of ethanol = 2.24 mole

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mole

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

$C_2H_5OH+3O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O$

First we have to calculate the moles carbon dioxide.

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of ethanol react to give 2 moles of carbon dioxide

So, 2.24 mole of ethanol react to give $2\times 2.24=4.48$ moles of carbon dioxide

Now we have to calculate the mass of carbon dioxide.

$\text{Mass of }CO_2=\text{Moles of }CO_2\times \text{Molar mass of }CO_2$

$\text{Mass of }CO_2=4.48mole\times 44g/mole=197.12g$

Therefore, the amount of carbon dioxide produced is 197.12 grams.

How does the position of the Sun, moons, planets and stars affect a person's personality traits and daily behavior patterns

Explanation:

The question that cannot be answered scientifically from the given choices is "how does the position of the Sun, moons, planets and stars affect a person's personality traits and daily behavior patterns".

This problem is off the jurisdiction of natural science.

Scientific questions are usually empirical in nature and draws relationship between two variables.
Usually, one variable changes and the other is affected.
This problem stated is subjective and not scientific.
Humans have a wide range of personality traits.
This problem can be solved using a psychological analysis.
