Why does naphthalene have a higher melting point than biphenyl?

Chemistry
1 answer:
AlexFokin [52]3 years ago
4 0

<span>Naphthalene has a higher melting point than biphenyl because naphthalene is a polar compound while biphenyl is a non-polar compound.</span> Studies show <span>that polar compounds have higher melting and boiling points than nonpolar compounds. It is because polar compounds have strong intermolecular forces.</span>

The standard molar heat of fusion of ice is 6020 j/mol. calculate q, w, and ∆e for melting 1.00 mol of ice at 0◦c and 1.00 atm p
zysi [14]

Answer :    q = 6020 J, w = -6020 J, Δe = 0

Solution : Given,

Molar heat of fusion of ice = 6020 J/mole

Number of moles = 1 mole

Pressure = 1 atm

Molar heat of fusion : It is defined as the amount of energy required to melt 1 mole of a substance at its melting point. There is no temperature change.

The relation between heat and molar heat of fusion is,

q=\Delta H_{fusion}(\frac{Mass}{\text{ Molar mass}})  (in terms of mass)

or, q=\Delta H_{fusion}\times Moles     (in terms of moles)

Now we have to calculate the value of q.

q=6020J/mole\times 1Mole=6020J

When temperature is constant then the system behaves isothermally and Δe is a temperature dependent variable.

So, the value of \Delta e=0

Now we have to calculate the value of w.

Formula used :    \Delta e=q+w

where, q is heat required, w is work done and \Delta e is internal energy.

Now put all the given values in above formula, we get

0=6020J+w

w = -6020 J

Therefore, q = 6020 J, w = -6020 J, Δe = 0

What do plants do that requires Energy?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Photosynthesis uses energy from light to convert water and carbon dioxide molecules into glucose (sugar molecule) and oxygen. The oxygen is released, or “exhaled”, from leaves while the energy contained within glucose molecules is used throughout the plant for growth, flower formation, and fruit development.
