Answer:

892 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Given and required data

  • Mass of the nonvolatile and a non-electrolyte solute: 11.01 g
  • Volume of solution: 158.1 mL = 0.1581 L
  • Osmotic pressure (π): 1.91 atm
  • Ideal gas constant (R): 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K
  • Absolute temperature (T): 298 K

Step 2: Calculate the molarity (M) of the solution

The osmotic pressure is a colligative property that can be calculated using the following expression.

π = M × R × T

M = π / R × T

M = 1.91 atm / (0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K

M = 0.0781 M

Step 3: Calculate the molecular weight of the solute

We will use the following expression for molarity.

M = mass of solute / molecular weight of solute × liters of solution

molecular weight of solute = mass of solute / M × liters of solution

molecular weight of solute = 11.01 g / (0.0781 mol/L) × 0.1581 L

molecular weight of solute = 892 g/mol

<u>Answer:</u> The \Delta H^o_{rxn} for the reaction is 72 kJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation is treated as ordinary algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The given chemical reaction follows:

2SrCO_3(s)\rightarrow 2Sr(s)+2C(s)+3O_2(g)      \Delta H^o_{rxn}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:

(1) 2Sr(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SrO(s)    \Delta H_1=-1184kJ

(2) SrO(s)+CO_2(g)\rightarrow SrCO_3(s)     \Delta H_2=-234kJ      ( × 2)

(3) CO_2(g)\rightarrow C(s)+O_2(g)     \Delta H_3=394kJ    ( × 2)

The expression for enthalpy of the reaction follows:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[1\times (\Delta H_1)]+[2\times (-\Delta H_2)]+[2\times (\Delta H_3)]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times (-1184))+(2\times -(-234))+(2\times (394))]=72kJ

Hence, the \Delta H^o_{rxn} for the reaction is 72 kJ.

Write the condensed ground-state electron configurations of these transition metal ions, and state which are paramagnetic:
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

a) Mo the electron configuration: 42Mo: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d4

Mo3+ - is Paramagnetic

b) Au - [Xe] 4f14 5d10 6s1

For Au+ is not paramagnetic

c) Mn - [Ar] 3d5 4s2

Mn2+ is paramagnetic

d)Hf -[Xe] 4f¹⁴ 5d² 6s²

Hf2+ is not paramagnetic

Explanation:

An atom becomes positively charged when it looses an electron.

Diamagnetism in atom occurs whenever two electrons in an orbital paired equalises with a total spin of 0.

Paramagnetism in atom occurs whenever at least one orbital of an atom has a net spin of electron. That is a paramagnetic electron is just an unpaired electron in the atom.

Here is a twist even if an atom have ten diamagnetic electrons, the presence of at least one paramagnetic electron, makes it to be considered as a paramagnetic atom.

Simply put paramagnetic elements are one that have unpaired electrons, whereas diamagnetic elements do have paired electron.

Hydrologers study the availability of fresh water on the planet.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Hydrologists study how water interacts with the earth's crust. For example, they may study how rainfall and snowfall cause erosion, create caves, percolate through soil and rock to become groundwater, or eventually reach the sea.Hydrologists strive to improve water quality and increase our access to water so that we can continue to make use of it in all the ways that are necessary to our lives. A hydrologist measures the stream flow in a tributary to the Coeur d'Alene River. layers of gases surrounding a planet or other celestial body
