The vapor pressure of benzene, C6H6, is 40.1 mmHg at 7.6°C. What is its vapor pressure at 60.6°C? The molar heat of vaporization
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The vapor pressure at 60.6°C is 330.89 mmHg

Explanation:

Applying Clausius Clapeyron Equation

ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1}) = \frac{\delta H}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2}]

Where;

P₂ is the final vapor pressure of benzene = ?

P₁ is the initial vapor pressure of benzene = 40.1 mmHg

T₂ is the final temperature of benzene = 60.6°C = 333.6 K

T₁ is the initial temperature of benzene = 7.6°C = 280.6 K

ΔH is the molar heat of vaporization of benzene = 31.0 kJ/mol

R is gas rate = 8.314 J/mol.k

ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = \frac{31,000}{8.314}[\frac{1}{280.6}- \frac{1}{333.6}]\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 3728.65 (0.003564 - 0.002998)\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 3728.65  (0.000566)\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 2.1104\\\\\frac{P_2}{40.1} = e^{2.1104}\\\\\frac{P_2}{40.1} = 8.2515\\\\P_2 = (40.1*8.2515)mmHg = 330.89 mmHg

Therefore, the vapor pressure at 60.6°C is 330.89 mmHg

Which of the following has the greatest kinetic energy? A. a mass of 4m at velocity v. B. a mass of 3m at velocity 2v. C. a mass
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that the body possesses by virtue of its motion.

The formula for Kinetic energy is given by \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Using this formula let us find kinetic energy for the bodies given and find out which is the greatest

A) KE = \frac{1}{2} (4m)(v^2) = 2mv^2

B) KE =\frac{1}{2} (3m)(2v)^2 = 6mv^2

C) KE = \frac{1}{2} (2m)(3v)^2 = 9mv^2

D) KE = \frac{1}{2} (3)(4v)^2 = 8mv^2

Comparing these we find that 9mv^2 is the highest.

Hence option C is the answer.

Light from a fluorescent lamp is observed through a cloud of cool nitrogen gas. Again, two students are having a discussion abou
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

From the previous explanation Student No. 1 has the correct explanation

Explanation:

When the fluorescent lamp emits a light it has the shape of its emission spectrum, this light collides with the atoms of Nitrogen and excites it, so these wavelengths disappear, lacking in the spectrum seen by the observed, for which we would see an absorption spectrum

The nitrogen that was exited after a short time is given away in its emission lines, in general there are many lines, so the excitation energy is divided between the different emission lines, which must be weak

From the previous explanation Student No. 1 has the correct explanation
