When a solid melts, why does it absorb energy?

Chemistry

yan [13]3 years ago
5 0
In order for the molecules to actually separate from each other, more energy must be added. This energy, called heat of fusion or heat of melting, is absorbed by the particles as potential energy as the solid changes to a liquid. I hope this helps

What is the density of 0.50 grams of gaseous carbon stored under 1.5 atm of pressure at a temperature of -20.0 C?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer: The density of 0.50 grams of gaseous carbon stored under 1.50 atm of pressure at a temperature of -20.0 °C is 0.867 g/L.

Explanation:

  • d = m/V, where d is the density, m is the mass and V is the volume.
  • We have the mass m = 0.50 g, so we must get the volume V.
  • To get the volume of a gas, we apply the general gas law PV = nRT

P is the pressure in atm (P = 1.5 atm)

V is the volume in L (V = ??? L)

n is the number of moles in mole, n = m/Atomic mass, n = 0.50/12.0 = 0.416 mole.

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K).

T is the temperature in K (T(K) = T(°C) + 273 = -20.0 + 273 = 253 K).

  • Then, V = nRT/P = (0.416 mol)(0.082 L.atm/mol.K)(253 K) / (1.5 atm) = 0.576 L.
  • Now, we can obtain the density; d = m/V = (0.50 g) / (0.576 L) = 0.867 g/L.

How is an electrons energy related to its position in an atom?
balu736 [363]

Answer: The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one zone to another is a fixed, finite amount. The electron with its extra packet of energy becomes excited, and promptly moves out of its lower energy level and takes up a position in a higher energy level.

22. A piece of wood board contains approximately 6.76 X 1023 molecules of wood, C2H4920, how
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

<h2>1.23 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{6.76 \times  {10}^{23} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  =  \frac{6.76}{6.02}  \\  = 1.22923...

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.23 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
