Answer:

The mass of silver is 49 g (0.049 kg).

Explanation:

Initial temperature = $30^{o}$ C

Final temperature = $40^{o}$ C

Quantity of heat required = 117.5 J

Specific heat capacity of silver = 0.240 J/g $^{o} C$

mass of the silver can be determined by;

Q = mcΔθ

Where: Q is the quantity of heat required, m is the mass of substance, c is the specific heat capacity of the substance and Δθ is the change in temperature.

So that,

117.5 = m x 0.240 x (40 - 30)

117.5 = m x 0.24 x 10

= 2.4m

m = $\frac{117.5}{2.4}$

= 48.9583

m ≅

m = 49 g

The mass of silver is 49 g (0.049 kg).

In atmospheric chemistry, the following chemical reaction converts SO2, the predominant oxide of sulfur that comes from combusti

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information;

The chemical reaction can be well presented as follows:

$\mathtt{SO_{2(g)} + \dfrac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} }$ ⇄ $\mathtt{3SO_{2(l)}}$

Now, K is known to be the equilibrium constant and it can be represented in terms of each constituent activity:

i.e

$K = \dfrac{a_{so_3}}{a_{so_2} a_{o_2}^{\frac{1}{2}}}$

However, since we are dealing with liquids solutions;

$K = \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{Pso_2}{P^0}\Big ( \dfrac{Po_2}{P^0} \Big)^{1/2}}$ since the activity of $a_{so_3}$ is equivalent to 1

Hence, under standard conditions(i.e at a pressure of 1 bar)

$K = \dfrac{1}{Pso_2Po_2^{1/2}}$

(b)

From the CRC Handbook, we are meant to determine the value of the Gibb free energy by applying the formula:

$\Delta _{rxn} G^o = \sum \Delta_f \ G^o (products) - \sum \Delta_fG^o (reactants) \\ \\ = (1) (-368 \ kJ/mol) - (\dfrac{1}{2}) (0) - ((1) (-300.13 \ kJ/mol)) \\ \\ = -368 \ kJ/mol + 300.13 \ kJ/mol \\ \\ \simeq -68 \ kJ/mol$

Thus, for this reaction; the Gibbs frree energy = -68 kJ/mol

(c)

Le's recall that:

At equilibrium, the instantaneous free energy is usually zero &

Q(reaction quotient) is equivalent to K(equilibrium constant)

So;

$\mathtt{\Delta _{rxn} G = \Delta _{rxn} G^o + RT In Q}$

$\mathtt{0- \Delta _{rxn} G^o = RTIn K } \\ \\ \mathtt{ \Delta _{rxn} G^o = -RTIn K } \\ \\ K = e^{\dfrac{\Delta_{rxn} G^o}{RT}} \\ \\ K = e^{^{\dfrac{67900 \ J/mol}{8.314 \ J/mol \times 298 \ K}} }$

$K =7.98390356\times 10^{11} \\ \\ \mathbf{K = 7.98 \times 10^{11}}$

(d)

The direction by which the reaction will proceed can be determined if we can know the value of Q(reaction quotient).

This is because;

If Q < K, then the reaction will proceed in the right direction towards the products.

However, if Q > K , then the reaction goes to the left direction. i.e to the reactants.

So;

$Q= \dfrac{1}{Pso_2Po_2^{1/2}}$

Since we are dealing with liquids;

$Q= \dfrac{1}{1 \times 1^{1/2}}$

Q = 1

Since Q < K; Then, the reaction proceeds in the right direction.

Hence, SO2 as well O2 will combine to yield SO3, then condensation will take place to form liquid.

Compound A is an alkene that was treated with ozone to yield only (CH3CH2CH2)2C=O. Draw the major product that is expected when

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

2,2,3,3-tetrapropyloxirane

Explanation:

In this case, we have to know first the alkene that will react with the peroxyacid. So:

What do we know about the unknown alkene?

We know the product of the ozonolysis reaction (see figure 1). This reaction is an oxidative rupture reaction. Therefore, the double bond will be broken and we have to replace the carbons on each side of the double bond by oxygens. If $(CH_3CH_2CH_2)_2C=O$ is the only product we will have a symmetric molecule in this case 4,5-dipropyloct-4-ene.

What is the product with the peroxyacid?

This compound in the presence of alkenes will produce peroxides. Therefore we have to put a peroxide group in the carbons where the double bond was placed. So, we will have as product 2,2,3,3-tetrapropyloxirane. (see figure 2)
