5. What are the relative rates of diffusion for methane, CH, and oxygen, O2? If O2 la travels 1.00 m in a certain amount of time
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The relative rates of diffusion for methane and oxygen is 1.4142.

Methane gas will be able to travel 1.4142 meter in the same conditions.

Explanation:

To calculate the rate of diffusion of gas, we use Graham's Law.

This law states that the rate of effusion or diffusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas. Mathematically written as:

\text{Rate of diffusion}\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{Molar mass of the gas}}}

We are given:

Molar mass of methane gas, m = 16 g/mol

Molar mass of oxygen gas,m' = 32 g/mol

By taking their ratio, we get:

\frac{d_{CH_4}}{d_{O_2}}=\sqrt{\frac{m'}{m}}

\frac{d_{CH_4}}{d_{O_2}}=\sqrt{\frac{32}{16}}=1.4142

The relative rates of diffusion for methane and oxygen is 1.4142.

If oxygen gas travels 1 meters in time t.

Rate of diffusion of oxygen =d_{O_2}=\frac{1 m}{t}

If methane gas travels travels in y meters in time t.

Rate of diffusion of methane=d_{CH_4}=\frac{y }{t}

\frac{d_{CH_4}}{d_{O_2}}=\frac{\frac{y }{t}}{\frac{1 m}{t}}=1.4142

y = 1.4142 m

Methane gas will be able to travel 1.4142 meter in the same conditions.

Sodium is a silvery-white metal that reacts with chlorine gas, which is a yellow-greenish gas that is toxic. The reaction gives
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Sodium is a silvery-white metal that reacts with chlorine gas, which is a yellow-greenish gas that is toxic. The  reaction gives off a lot of heat. After the reaction, which statement is true about the chemical properties of the product, sodium chloride?

Pure sodium reacts violently and sometimes explosively with water producing sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas and heat

2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

Chlorine is a very poisonous yellow green gas with a sharp odour that was used in gas warfare during WW1

Sodium and chlorine reacts with each other, however, to produce one of the most familiar substance used in cooking and preservation industry today Sodium Chloride or Common salt or table salt in the irreversible equation;

2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s)

Explanation:

It is easy to see why this reaction takes place so readily sodium has one electron in its outermost valence shell while chlorine has seven electrons in its valence shell. when sodium atom transfers one electron to chlorine atom forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-) both ions have complete valence shells and are energetically more stable. the reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat and fumes of sodium chloride.

In a reaction observation of the reaction process you will see sodium flares up almost immediately upon reaction with water.

Answer:
hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to form sodium chloride (the salt) and water.

Explanation:
Sodium chloride is made up of Na+ cations from the base (NaOH) and CI-anions from the acid (HCI).

Which of the following observations NOT likely describes a chemical change? a A white solid was exposed to ultraviolet light and
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - c.  A solid was added to water and the mixture was stirred until the solid was no longer visible

Explanation:

Photostabalizing is the process where a solid change its color in the presence of ultraviolet light, it is a chemical change, so the first option would not be the correct answer.

when two liquid or aqueous solutions are mixed together and form a solid substance, this reaction is known as precipitation and it is a chemical reaction too.

When a solid is placed in a liquid and after stirring it makes the solid vanish is a physical change known as dissolving character.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
