what is the molecular formula for a compound with the empirical formula: K2SO4 and a molecular mass of 696g​

Chemistry
1 answer:
LekaFEV [45]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

K8S4O16 or K8(SO4)4 depending on if the SO4 is supposed to represent sulfate or not

Explanation:

Find the molar mass of K2SO4 first:

2K + S + 4O ≈ 174 g/mol

Divide the goal molar mass of 696 by the molar mass of the empirical formula:

696 / 174 = 4

This means you need to multiply everything in the empirical formula by 4:

K2SO4 --> K8S4O16 or K8(SO4)4 depending on if the SO4 is for sulfate or not

Nitric oxide reacts with chlorine to form nocl. the data refer to 298 k. 2no(g) + cl2(g) → 2nocl(g) substance: no(g) cl2(g) nocl
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

- 10.555 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

∵ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn.

Where, ∆G°rxn is the standard free energy change of the reaction (J/mol).

∆H°rxn is the standard enthalpy change of the reaction (J/mol).

T is the temperature of the reaction (K).

∆S°rxn is the standard entorpy change of the reaction (J/mol.K).

  • Calculating ∆H°rxn:

∵ ∆H°rxn = ∑∆H°products - ∑∆H°reactants

<em>∴ ∆H°rxn = (2 x ∆H°f NOCl) - (1 x ∆H°f Cl₂) - (2 x ∆H°f NO) </em>= (2 x 51.71 kJ/mol) - (1 x 0) - (2 x 90.29 kJ/mol) = - 77.16 kJ/mol.

  • Calculating ∆S°rxn:

∵  ∆S°rxn = ∑∆S°products - ∑∆S°reactants

<em>∴ ∆S°rxn = (2 x ∆S° NOCl) - (1 x ∆S° Cl₂) - (2 x ∆S° NO) </em>= (2 x 261.6 J/mol.K) - (1 x 223.0 J/mol.K) - (2 x 210.65 J/mol.K) =<em> - 121.1 J/mol.K. = - 0.1211 kJ/mol.K.</em>

<em></em>

  • Calculating ∆G°rxn:

∵ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn.

<em>∴ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn </em>= (- 77.16 kJ/mol) - (550 K)(- 0.1211 kJ/mol.K) = <em>- 10.555 kJ/mol.</em>

A 13.5g sample of gold is heated, then placed in a calorimeter containing 60g of water. The temperature of water increases from
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

T_i~=163.1 ºC

Explanation:

We have to start with the variables of the problem:

Mass of water = 60 g

Mass of gold = 13.5 g

Initial temperature of water= 19 ºC

Final temperature of water= 20 ºC

<u>Initial temperature of gold= Unknow</u>

Final temperature of gold= 20 ºC

Specific heat of gold = 0.13J/gºC

Specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C

Now if we remember the <u>heat equation</u>:

Q_H_2_O=m_H_2_O*Cp_H_2_O*deltaT

Q_A_u=m_A_u*Cp_A_u*deltaT

We can relate these equations if we take into account that <u>all heat of gold is transfer to the water</u>, so:

m_H_2_O*Cp_H_2_O*deltaT=~-~m_A_u*Cp_A_u*deltaT

Now we can <u>put the values into the equation</u>:

60~g*4.186~J/g{\circ}C*(20-19)~{\circ}C=-(13.5~g*0.13~J/g{\circ}C*(20-T_i)~{\circ}C)

Now we can <u>solve for the initial temperature of gold</u>, so:

T_i~=(\frac{60~g*4.186~J/g{\circ}C*(20-19)~{\circ}C}{13.5~g*0.13~J/g{\circ}C})+20

T_i~=163.1 ºC

I hope it helps!

Hydrophobic compounds dissolve in
Anastaziya [24]
Hydrophobic molecules tend to be nonpolar molecules that group together to form micelles rather than be exposed to water. Hydrophobic molecules typically dissolve in nonpolar solvents (e.g., organic solvents).
