Who is Alfred Wegener? What did he discover?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Aliun [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift – the idea that Earth's continents move. Despite publishing a large body of compelling fossil and rock evidence for his theory between 1912 and 1929, it was rejected by most other scientists.

Hope this helps!

Be sure to answer all parts. The equilibrium constant (Kp) for the reaction below is 4.40 at 2000. K. H2(g) + CO2(g) ⇌ H2O(g) +
nikklg [1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The value of \Delta G for the chemical equation is -24.636 kJ/mol

<u>For 2:</u> The value of \Delta G for the chemical equation is -20.925 kJ/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given chemical equation:

H_2(g)+CO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons H_2O(g)+CO(g)

  • <u>For 1:</u>

To calculate the \Delta G for given value of equilibrium constant, we use the relation:

\Delta G=-RT\ln K_p      .....(1)

where,

\Delta G = ? kJ/mol

R = Gas constant = 8.314J/K mol

T = temperature = 2000 K

K_p = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 4.40

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta G=-(8.314J/Kmol)\times 2000K\times \ln (4.40)\\\\\Delta G=-24636.12J/mol

Converting this into kilo joules, we use the conversion factor:

1 kJ = 1000 J

So, -24636.12 J/mol = -24.636 kJ/mol

Hence, the value of \Delta G for the chemical equation is -24.636 kJ/mol

  • <u>For 2:</u>

The expression of K_p for the given chemical equation is:

K_p=\frac{p_{CO}p_{H_2O}}{p_{H_2}p_{CO_2}}

We are given:

p_{CO}=1.18atm\\p_{H_2O}=0.66atm\\p_{CO_2}=0.82atm\\p_{H_2}=0.27atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_p=\frac{1.18\times 0.66}{0.27\times 0.82}\\\\K_p=3.52

Now, calculating the value of \Delta G by using equation 1:

R = Gas constant = 8.314J/K mol

T = temperature = 2000 K

K_p = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 3.52

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\Delta G=-(8.314J/Kmol)\times 2000K\times \ln (3.52)\\\\\Delta G=-20925.68J/mol

Converting this into kilo joules, we use the conversion factor:

1 kJ = 1000 J

So, -20925.68 J/mol = -20.925 kJ/mol

Hence, the value of \Delta G for the chemical equation is -20.925 kJ/mol

A solid, pure substance containing just carbon and hydrogen is found to contain 35.8g of carbon and 3.72 g of hydrogen. how many
Igoryamba

Answer:

            4.36 g of Carbon

Solution:

Step 1: Calculate the %age of Carbon in given Solid as;

                        Mass of Carbon  =  35.8 g

                        Mass of Hydrogen  =  3.72

                        Total Mass  =  35.8 g + 3.72  =  39.52 g

                        %age of Carbon  =  (35.8 g ÷ 39.52 g) × 100

                        %age of carbon  =  90.58 %

Step 2: Calculate grams of Carbon in 4.82 g of given solid as;

                        Mass of Carbon  =  4.82 g × (90.58 ÷ 100)

                        Mass of Carbon  =  4.36 g

ICl has a higher boiling point than Br2. What is the best explanation for this?
Flura [38]
<span>The best answer is B. ICl experiences induced dipole-induced dipole interactions. Both iodine and chlorine belongs to the same group of the periodic table. Electronegativity decreases as you go down a group therefore Cl will have a greater attraction with the bond it forms with another atom. Dipole-dipole interactions form between I and Cl. For the Br2 molecule, no dipole occurs because they are two identical atoms. Therefore we will be expecting ICl will have a higher boiling point due to higher binding energy it forms.</span>
