Answer: For price-sensitive customers and for customers with no sodium-related health concerns, sodium chloride is an excellent choice. It's effective, inexpensive, easily obtained and usable in any water softener. On the other hand, potassium chloride would be a better choice for other kinds of customers.

128g of sulphur are burned in excess oxygen. What mass of sulphur dioxide forms? S + O2 --> SO2 *
Rasek [7]

Mass of Sulphur dioxide : 256 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

S + O2 --> SO2 *

Required

Mass of Sulphur dioxide

Solution

mol of Sulphur (Ar=32 g/mol) :

mol = mass : Ar

mol = 128 : 32

mol = 4

From the equation, mol ratio S : SO2 = 1 : 1, so mol SO2 = 4

Mass of SO2 :

mass = mol x MW SO2

mass = 4 x 64

mass = 256 g

The heating curve shows the energy gain of a substance as it changes from solid to gas. Which section of the graph shows the liq
Schach [20]

Answer:

C. C

Explanation:

The heating curve is a graphical representation shows that how different phases of substances change as it is influenced by the increase in temperature or heat.

Section A represents solid phase, Section B represents solid-liquid phase, section C represents liquid phase, section D represent liquid-gas phase and section E represents gas phase.

Section C of the graph shows the liquid phase of the substance gaining kinetic energy. During Phase C, heat energy is absorbed and liquid particles gain kinetic energy to change into gas form that is section E.

Hence, the correct option is C.C.

How much heat energy is required to boil 87.7 g of ammonia, NH3? The molar heat of vaporization of ammonia is 23.4 kJ/mol.
kiruha [24]

Energy released from changing the phase of a substance from the gas phase to liquid phase can be calculated by using the specific latent heat of vaporization. Calculation are as follows:

 <span>Energy = 87.7 g (1 mol / 17.04 g) x 23.4 kJ/mol</span>

 

Energy = 120.4 kJ
