Answer:

No, because Flourine can only form 1 bond, thus backbonding is not obtainable

Solid aluminum (AI) and oxygen (O_2) gas react to form solid aluminum oxide (Al_2O_3). Suppose you have 7.0 mol of Al and 9.0 mo

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

There will be formed 3.5 moles of Al2O3 ( 356.9 grams)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Numbers of Al = 7.0 mol

Numbers of mol O2 = O2

Molar mass of Al = 26.98 g/mol

Molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

4Al(s) + 3O2(g) → 2Al2O3(s)

Step 3: Calculate limiting reactant

For 4 moles Al we need 3 moles O2 to produce 2 moles Al2O3

Al is the limiting reactant, it will be consumed completely (7 moles).

O2 is in excess. There will react 3/4 * 7 = 5.25 moles

There will remain 9-5.25 = 3.75 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles Al2O3

For 4 moles Al we'll have 2moles Al2O3

For 7.0 moles of Al we'll have 3.5 moles of Al2O3 produced

Step 5: Calculate mass of Al2O3

Mass Al2O3 = moles Al2O3 * molar mass Al2O3

Mass Al2O3 = 3.5 moles* 101.96 g/mol

Mass Al2O3 = 356.9 grams

There will be formed 3.5 moles of Al2O3 ( 356.9 grams)

Without doing any calculations, match the following thermodynamic properties with their appropriate numerical sign for the follo

siniylev [52]

Answer:

∆H > 0

∆Srxn <0

∆G >0

∆Suniverse <0

Explanation:

We are informed that the reaction is endothermic. An endothermic reaction is one in which energy is absorbed hence ∆H is positive at all temperatures.

Similarly, absorption of energy leads to a decrease in entropy of the reaction system. Hence the change in entropy of the reaction ∆Sreaction is negative at all temperatures.

The change in free energy for the reaction is positive at all temperatures since ∆S reaction is negative then from ∆G= ∆H - T∆S, we see that given the positive value of ∆H, ∆G must always return a positive value at all temperatures.

Since entropy of the surrounding= - ∆H/T, given that ∆H is positive, ∆S surrounding will be negative at all temperatures. This is so because an endothermic reaction causes the surrounding to cool down.

A gas mixture contains HBr, NO2, and C2H6 at STP.If a tiny hole is made in the container, which gas will effuse fastest?Which ga

MakcuM [25]

Explanation:

Molar mass of HBr = 81 g/mol

Molar mass of nitrogen dioxide gas = 46 g/mol

Molar mass of ethane = 30 g/mol

Graham's 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. The equation given by this law follows the equation:

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

So, the gas with least molar mass will effuse out fastest from the container and that is ethane gas.

The formula for average kinetic energy is:

$K.E=\frac{3}{2}kT$

where,

k = Boltzmann’s constant = $1.38\times 10^{-23}J/K$

T = temperature = 273.15 K ( at STP)

As we can see from the formula that kinetic energy depends upon only temperature of the gas molecule.

So, from this we can say that all the gas molecules have the same average kinetic energy at this temperature.
