Where does the energy required to break the interactions between butane molecules come from when butane boils?

Arada [10]

Answer:

The properties of liquids are intermediate between those of gases and solids, but are more similar to solids. In contrast to intramolecular forces, such as the covalent bonds that hold atoms together in molecules and polyatomic ions, intermolecular forces hold molecules together in a liquid or solid. Intermolecular forces are generally much weaker than covalent bonds. For example, it requires 927 kJ to overcome the intramolecular forces and break both O–H bonds in 1 mol of water, but it takes only about 41 kJ to overcome the intermolecular attractions and convert 1 mol of liquid water to water vapor at 100°C. (Despite this seemingly low value, the intermolecular forces in liquid water are among the strongest such forces known!) Given the large difference in the strengths of intra- and intermolecular forces, changes between the solid, liquid, and gaseous states almost invariably occur for molecular substances without breaking covalent bonds.

The chemical equation is said to be balanced if the number of atoms in the reactants and products is the same

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Equation balanced ⇒ total number of atoms in reactants(on the left)= total number of atoms in products(on the right)

H₂+O₂---> H₂O

Reactants : H₂, O₂

Products : H₂O

not balanced

H₂O₂ ---> H₂O+O₂

Reactants : H₂O₂

Products : H₂O, O₂

not balanced

Na+O₂ ---> Na₂O

Reactants : Na, O₂

Products : Na₂O

not balanced

N₂+H₂ ---> NH₃

Reactants : N₂, H₂

Products : NH₃

not balanced

P₄+O₂---> P₄O₁₀

Reactants : P₄, O₂

Products : P₄O₁₀

not balanced

Fe+H₂O ----> Fe₃O₄ + H₂

Reactants : Fe, H₂O

Products : Fe₃O₄

Phosphorus pentachloride reacts with water to form hydrochloric acid and phosphoric acid. How many total moles of acid are forme

klio [65]

Answer:

0,13 moles of acid are produced

Explanation:

The reaction of the problem is:

PCl₅ + 4H₂O → 5HCl + H₃PO₄

Based on the reaction, 1 mole of PCl₅ produces 6 moles of acid (5 moles of HCl + 1 mole of H₃PO₄).

The molecular mass of PCl₅ is:

1P = 30,97g/mol + 5Cl = 5×35,45g/mol = <em>208,24 g/mol</em>

That means 4,5g of PCl₅ are:

4,5g PCl₅×(1mol / 208,24g) = 0,0216 moles of PCl₅. As 1 mole of PCl₅ produces 6 moles of acid, 0,0216 moles of PCl₅ produce:

0,0216 moles PCl₅ × (6 moles acid / mole of PCl₅) =

<em>0,13 moles of acid are produced</em>

I hope it helps!

Which state of matter is Na OH(s)

Shalnov [3]

Explanation:

SOLID

Sodium hydroxide exists in the solid phase at room temperature. You would find it in the lab as hemispherical white solid pellets. The phase of a substance depends on temperature and pressure. As you heat a solid, it will melt and change to the liquid phase.
