What is the density (in g/L) of a gas with a molar mass of 16.01 g/mol at 1.75 ATM and 337 K?
IRINA_888 [86]
You can use this formula to solve for density--> Density= PM/ RT, where P is pressure, M is molar mass, R is the gas constant and T is temperature. 

P= 1.75 atm
M= 16.01 g/ mol
R= 0.0821 atm·L/ mol·K
T=337 k

density= (1.75 x 16.01)/ (0.0821 x 337)= 1.01 g/L

Why carbon monoxide is not acidic ​
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Well, carbon monoxide can be created from formic acid by adding sulphuric acid which will dehydrate said formic acid:

HCOOH

−

→

−

−

−

H

2

SO

4

CO+H

2

O

HCOOH→HX2SOX4CO+HX2O

Therefore, we can imagine the reverse reaction theoretically, which would make carbon monoxide an acidic oxide. However, the forward reaction does not proceed easily and it needs both the high acidity of sulphuric acid and its strong dehydrative properties to actually work. And your question mentions using hot, concentrated sodium hydroxide to make the reverse one work.

Most oxides that are classified as acidic or basic either have a very electrophilic central atom (e.g.  

CO

2

COX2

) which can be attacked by the weak nucleophile water (which in turn can then release an acidic proton), or they have a high charge density on the oxygen which allows it to abstract a proton from water directly. Carbon monoxide is neither. If you check out its molecular orbitals, you will notice that even though carbon is partially positive it has the largest HOMO contribution, meaning a proton would be more likely to attatch to the carbon side — which doesn’t want one at all. The LUMO is, luckily, also more carbon-centred, meaning nucleophilic attacks on carbon are possible. However, it is also degenerate due to the double bond so that an attack is not favoured.

Thus, the carbon monoxide molecule is one that won’t react with water at all and totally defies the concept of acidic/basic oxides.

Abbreviations:

HOMO is a widely used abbreviation for the Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital, i.e. the one with the highest energy that still contains electrons. It is usually the orbital that will attack nucleophilicly or that will be attacked electrophilicly.

LUMO is a widely used abbreviation for the Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital, i.e. the virtual (unoccupied) orbital that has the lowest energy. When considering a nucleophilic attack, the attacking electrons will usually interact with the LUMO. Electrophiles attack with other molecules’ HOMO with their LUMO.

The specific heat capacity of a certain type of cooking oil is 1.75 J/(g⋅∘C). What is the amount of heat exchanged when the temp
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Q = -811440 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of oil = 2.76 Kg (2.76× 1000 = 2760 g)

Initial temperature = 191 °C

Final temperature = 23°C

Specific heat capacity of oil = 1.75 J/g.°C

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 23°C - 191 °C

ΔT = -168°C

Q = 2760 g ×1.75 J/g.°C  ×-168°C

Q = -811440 J

Negative sign show heat is released.

A gas is contained in a thick-walled balloon. When the pressure change from 100 kPa to 90.0 kPa, the volume changes from 2.50 L
Orlov [11]
The  temperature  change is   calculated using the  combined  gas law
that  is P1V1/T1  =P2V2/T2
P1=  100KPa
P2=90kpa
v1= 2.50 L
v2= 3.75 L
T1= 303 K
T2=?

T2  is  therefore  =  P2V2T1/P1V1
=( 90  x 3.75  x303)/  (100  x2.50) =  409.05  K
