1. Answer;

=56 g/mol

Explanation and solution;

PV = nRT

nRT= mass/molar mass (RT)

molar mass = (mass/V ) × (RT/P)

                   = Density × (RT/P)

Molar mass = 2.0 g/L × (0.0821 × 323 K)/0.948 atm

Molar mass = 56 g/mol


2. Answer;

Molecular mass is C4H8

Explanation;

Empirical mass × n = molar mass

Empirical mass for CH2 = 14 g/mol

Therefore;

56 g/mol = 14 g/mol × n

   n = 4

The molecular formula= 4(CH2)

    = C4H8

Which of the following trends is indirectly proportional to effective nuclear charge, Zeff
Julli [10]

Answer : Option C) Atomic Size

Explanation : The atomic radius of the elements is found to be decreasing if we go from left to right in the modern periodic table. Accordingly, Z_{eff} increases as the number of shielding electrons present in the atomic nucleus of the periodic elements which lies in the same row remains constant while the number of protons in each atomic shell increases.

The effective nuclear charge Z_{eff} of an atom is defined as the net positive charge which is felt by the valence electron of the atomic element.

When Z_{eff} is observed to decrease, it is seen that the atomic radius grows in size. So, it explains the inverse relationship between both. This phenomenon occurs, because there is more screening of the electrons from the nucleus taking place, which is observed due to decrease the attraction between the electron and the nucleus.

A sample of aluminum absorbs 9.86 J of heat, upon which the temperature increases from 23.2°C to 30.5°C. Since the specific heat
True [87]

Answer:

1.50 g

Explanation:

The heat absorbed by the aluminum in this case is:

q = m x C x ΔT     m= q/ (C x ΔT)

q= 9.86 J

C = 0.90 J/g-K

ΔT = ( 30.5 ºC - 23.2 ºC ) = 7.3 ºC = 7.3 K (this is a range of temperature)

m = 9.86 J / ( 0.90 J/g-K ) x 7.3 K ) = 1.50 g

What is the concentration of a saturated solution of SrSO4? SrSO4 has a Ksp of 3.2 x 10–7
Andrej [43]
SrSo4 = Sr(2+) + SO4(2-)

Let’s say that the initial concentration of SrSo4 was 1. ( or we have 1 mole of this reagent).

When The reaction occurs part of SrSo4is dissociated. And we get X mole Sr(2+) and So4(2-).
Ksp=[Sr(2+)]*[SO4(2-)]
X^2=3.2*10^-7
X=5.6*10^-4

The metallic radius of a potassium atom is 231 pm. What is the volume of a potassium atom in cubic meters?
Sauron [17]
1 pm = 10∧-10 cm
Therefore, 230 pm is equivalent to 2.3 ×10∧-8 cm.
Atom is in the shape of a sphere,
The volume of a sphere is given by 4/3πr³
Thus, volume of the atom = 4/3π( 2.3 ×10∧-8)³
                                          = 4/3 (3.142 ×12.167×10∧-24
                                           = 5.096 ×10∧-23 cm³
but 1m³= 1000000cm³
Therefore, the volume of the atom = 5.096 ×10∧-29 m³
