Answer:

The partial pressure of argon in the jar is 0.944 kilopascal.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the jar of air = 25.0 L

Number of moles argon = 0.0104 moles

Temperature = 273 K

Step 2: Calculate the pressure of argon with the ideal gas law

p*V = nRT

p = (nRT)/V

⇒ with n = the number of moles of argon = 0.0104 moles

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.0821 L*atm/mol*K

⇒ with T = the temperature = 273 K

⇒ with V = the volume of the jar = 25.0 L

p = (0.0104 * 0.0821 * 273)/25.0

p = 0.00932 atm

1 atm =101.3 kPa

0.00932 atm = 101.3 * 0.00932 = 0.944 kPa

The partial pressure of argon in the jar is 0.944 kilopascal.

The heat of fusion for a substance is 122 joules per gram. How many joules of heat are need to melt 7.50 grams of this substance
daser333 [38]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

915 Joules

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The heat of fusion is the heat that is required to convert a given mass of a substance from solid state to liquid state without change in temperature.
  • In this case, we are given specific heat of a substance as 122 joules per gram
  • It means that amount of heat equivalent to 122 joules is required to change 1 gram of the substance from solid state to liquid state.
  • Therefore, we can determine the amount of heat needed to change 7.5 grams of the substance from solid to liquid state.

1 g = 122 Joules

7.5 g = ?

       = 122 × 7.5

      = 915 Joules

Thus, 7.5 g of the substance at its melting point will require 915 Joules of heat to melt.

Tanya [424]

Answer:

The particles begin to vibrate faster and more.

Explanation:

Adding heat to matter increases the energy, thus creating more movement. Eventually, the bucket will melt, turning to a liquid. While it is a sold, it still has particle movement, just not enough to break volume or shape.
