How many are molecules ( or formula) in each sample?

andre [41]

Answer:

$4.010 \times 10^{25} \text { molecules of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3} \text { present in } 55.93 \mathrm{kg} \text { of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}$
$16.86 \times 10^{26} \text { molecules of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4} \text { present in } 459 \mathrm{kg}\left(4.59 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{gm}\right) \text { of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$

Explanation:

Number of molecules for $55.93 \mathrm{kg} \text { of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}$

$\text { Firstly molar mass is calculated of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}:$

Atomic mass of Na + H + C + 3(O) = 22.99 + 1.008 + 12.01 + 3 × 16.00 = 84.00 g/mol

$\text { Number of molecules of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3} \text { in } 55.93 \text { kg are as follows: }$

$55.93 \times\left(10^{3} \mathrm{gm}\right) \times \frac{1 \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}}{84.00 \mathrm{gm} \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}} \times\left(6.022 \times 10^{23} \mathrm{molecules} \text { i.e Avogadro number }\right)$

$=4.010 \times 10^{26} \text { molecules of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3} \text { present in } 55.93 \mathrm{kg} \text { of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}$

Number of molecules for for $\left(4.59 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{gm}\right) \text { of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$

$\text { Firstly molar mass is calculated of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$

= Atomic mass of 3(Na) + P + 4(O)

= 3(22.99) + 30.97 + 4(16.00) = 163.94 g/mol

$459 \times\left(10^{3} \mathrm{gm}\right) \times \frac{1 \mathrm{mol} N a_{3} P O_{4}}{163.94 \mathrm{gm} N a_{3} P O_{4}} \times\left(6.022 \times 10^{23} \mathrm{molecules} \text { i.e Avogadro number) } / 1 \mathrm{mol}\right.$

$=16.86 \times 10^{26} \text { molecules of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4} \text { present in } 459 \mathrm{kg}\left(4.59 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{gm}\right) \text { of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$

In an exothermic reaction, energy is blank the surroundings.

S_A_V [24]

Answer: released to; absorbed from

- In an exothermic reaction, energy is released to the surroundings.

- In an endothermic reaction, energy is absorbed from the surroundings.

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs spontaneously and brings about the release of energy to the surroundings. Hence, the reacting vessel feels hot as the reaction proceeds.

An endothermic reaction, on the other hand, does not occur spontaneously and proceed only when energy is absorbed from the surroundings. Hence, the reacting vessel feels cold as the reaction proceeds.
