Answer:

 \frac{3}{2}

Explanation:

Given formula of Gypsum:

               CaSO₄. xH₂O,

       True formula:

              CaSO₄. 2H₂O,  x  = 2

Formula of plaster of paris  = CaSO₄. \frac{1}{2} H₂O,

               y  =  \frac{1}{2}

The difference between x and y; x - y:

               x  - y = 2 -  \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{3}{2}

The heat of vaporization of a liquid is 84.0 J/g. How many joules of heat would it take to completely vaporize 172 g of this liq
Aliun [14]

Answer:

14,448 J of heat would it take to completely vaporize 172 g of this liquid at its boiling point.

Explanation:

The heat Q that is necessary to provide for a mass m of a certain substance to change phase is equal to Q = m*L, where L is called the latent heat of the substance and depends on the type of phase change.

During the evaporation process, a substance goes from a liquid to a gaseous state and needs to absorb a certain amount of heat from its immediate surroundings, which results in its cooling. The heat absorbed is called the heat of vaporization.

So, it is called "heat of vaporization", the energy required to change 1 gram of substance from a liquid state to a gaseous state at the boiling point.

In this case, being:

  • Q=?
  • m= 172 g
  • L= 84 \frac{J}{g}

and replacing in the expression Q = m*L you get:

Q=172 g*84 \frac{J}{g}

Q=14,448 J

<u><em>14,448 J of heat would it take to completely vaporize 172 g of this liquid at its boiling point.</em></u>

Rank these compounds by their expected boiling point? CH4 CH3Cl CH3OH? Lowest to highest; 10+ for the best explanation. Thank yo
docker41 [41]
Methane, CH4, would have the lowest boiling point among the three since it has the lowest number of carbon and has no functional groups. Methanol would have the highest boiling point since it has a functional group which contains hydrogen bonding which much stronger than the one in CH3Cl. Hope this helps.<span />

What is mole-to-mole stoichiometry.
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

https://youtu.be/3zmeVamEsWI

Explanation:

It is defined as the ratio of moles of one substance to the moles of another substance in a balanced equation. ... Mole ratios are the central step in performing stoichiometry because they allow us to convert moles of one substance to moles of another substance.

In the following reaction, how many grams of silver can be produced from 49.1 g copper?
notsponge [240]

166.4 g Ag grams of silver can be produced from 49.1 g of copper.

<h3>What is a mole?</h3>

A mole is a very important unit of measurement that chemists use. A mole of something means you have 602,214,076,000,000,000,000,000 of that thing, like how having a dozen eggs means you have twelve eggs.

1 mol Cu + 2 mol AgNO_3 → 2 mol Ag + 1 mol Cu(NO3)2

63.55 g Cu —> 2 x 107.688 g Ag

63.55 g Cu gives 215.376 g of Ag

So, 49.1 g Cu —> \frac{215.376 g X 49.1 g}{63.55 g}

= 166.4 g Ag

Hence, 166.4 g Ag grams of silver can be produced from 49.1 g of copper.
