There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. In
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide is -470.4 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

Step 1 : Calcium carbide and water react to form acetylene and calcium hydroxide

CaC_2(s)+2H_2O(g)\rightarrow

             C_2H_2(g)+Ca(OH)_2(s),\Delta H_1=-414 kJ..[1]

Step 2 : Acetylene, carbon dioxide and water react to form acrylic acid

6C_2H_2(g)+3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCOOH(g),\Delta H_2=132 kJ..[2]

Using Hess's law:

[1] × 6 + [2]

6CaC_2(s)+16H_2O(g)+3CO_2\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCOOH(g)+6Ca(OH)_2(s),\Delta H_3=?

\Delta H_3=6\times \Delta H_1+\Delta H_2

\Delta H_3=6\times (-414 kJ)+132 kJ=-2352 kJ

The energy released on formation of 5 moles of acrylic acid = -2352 kJ

The energy released on formation of 1 moles of acrylic acid :

=\frac{-2352 kJ}{5 mol}=-470.4 kJ/mol

Hence, the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide is -470.4 kJ/mol.

The mass number of an atom is 15, and its atomic number is 7. The atom probably has... 8 neutrons in the nucleus. about as much
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number is the sum of only total number of protons present in an element. Whereas mass number is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.

For example, given atom has mass number as 15 and its atomic number is 7.

Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.

                    Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                         15 = 7 + no. of neutrons

                    no. of neutrons = 15 - 7

                                               = 8

Thus, we can conclude that the given atom contains 8 neutrons in the nucleus.

Can swords shatter from cold temperatures
sp2606 [1]
Depends on how the sword is made, what materials are used and temperature used but yes they can shatter.

When molecules cool down they stop vibrating and moving as much and so they "shrink" and the metal of the sword becomes brittle. sometimes they shrink at different phases which cause tension in the sword if this tension is strong enough it can cause the metallic bonds to break causing the sword to shatter.

hope that helps
