Answer:

Volume occupied by 55.5 moles of water gas at STP = 1240 Liters.

Explanation:

1st keep in mind that 'volume' in the context of problems like this apply only to the gas phase form of the substance. Water in solid form (ice) or liquid form (liquid water) do not apply. Volume in this case is referred to as 'molar volume' and is a gas occupying 22.4 liters at STP conditions (0°C, 1Atm).

So, if 1 molar volume of water gas (steam) occupies 22.4 Liters at STP, then 55.5 moles of water gas occupies 22.4 Liters/mole x 55.5 moles = 1243.2 Liters, or 1240 Liters (3 sig. figs.). :-)

What is the difference between atomic mass, relative atomic mass and average atomic mass

vesna_86 [32]

$\bold{\huge{\underline{\purple{ Answer }}}}$

Difference between Atomic mass, relative atomic mass and average atomic mass :-

<h3>Atomic Mass :-</h3>

Atomic mass is the mass of neutrons and protons present in the nucleus of an atom .
It is always calculated for a single element and having direct value
For isotopes also, the atomic mass is calculated separately . Example :- Carbon 12 , carbon 13 and carbon 14 have different atomic mass. 
The SI unit of Atomic mass is " u" and "amu"

<h3>Relative Atomic mass :-</h3>

Relative atomic mass is mean mass of the atoms of an element which is compared to the 1/12th mass of carbon - 12 .
Carbon - 12 is taken as a relative when we calculate the relative atomic mass of any element
For calculating relative atomic mass, we need to know the masses, percentage and abundance of all types of elements
Relative atomic mass is a dimension less quantity

<h3>Average Atomic Mass :-</h3>

Average atomic mass is the average mass of an atoms of a particular element by considering it's isotopes
While we calculate average atomic mass is a standardized number. Whereas, Average atomic mass sometimes varies geologically .
It also includes percentage, abundance and masses of given element .
In average atomic mass, We do not compare mean value with the 1/12 mass of carbon - 12
The unit of Average atomic mass is "Amu" or " u " .

Explain why noble gases usually do not form bonds with other atoms?

katovenus [111]

Noble gases' outer shells are already filled with 8 electrons (other than He, which has 2, but is still filled and stable). Atoms bond with other elements to fill their outer shell, but they don't need to do that and are already stable.

Draw all four products obtained when 2-ethyl-3-methyl-1,3-cyclohexadiene is treated with HBr at room temperature and show the me

LenKa [72]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case we have reaction of addition. In this case a diene reacting with an acid as HBr. This reaction is known as Hydrohalogenation, and, as we have a diene, this kind of reaction can be done as 1,4 addition. Which means that the reaction will be undergoing with an adition in the carbon 1, and carbon 4.

At room temperature we can expect that this reaction can be done in thermodynamic conditions, Now, as the problem states that is forming 4 products, we can expect products of a 1,2 addition too. This product can be formed if the reaction is taking place in the most stable carbocation, and then, by resonance, we can expect the 1,4 product too.

Now, the HBr can be attacked by the double bond of the first position, giving two possible products or by the double bond of the third position giving the other two products. These products are all possible, obviously the most stable will be the major of all of them, but the other three are perfectly possible. One product is formed without doing much, and the other by resonance. Same happens with the other double bond.

In the picture below, you have the mechanism for all the 4 products.

Hope this helps
