Answer:

The new atomic mass of oxygen is 64u

Explanation:

Given

Taking the mass by part on the scale of 1/12 gives atomic mass of oxygen = 16 u

Now, when the scale is changed from 1/12 to 1/3, the new mass would become

\frac{16}{\frac{1}{12} } * \frac{1}{3} \\= \frac{16 * 12}{3} \\= 64

The new atomic mass of oxygen is 64u

Consider the following reaction: CO(g)+2H2(g)⇌CH3OH(g) This reaction is carried out at a different temperature with initial conc
Anni [7]

Answer:

Ka = 4.76108

Explanation:

  • CO(g) + 2H2(g) ↔ CH3OH(g)

∴ Keq = [CH3OH(g)] / [H2(g)]²[CO(g)]

                      [ ]initial         change         [ ]eq

CO(g)              0.27 M       0.27 - x        0.27 - x

H2(g)              0.49 M       0.49 - x        0.49 - x

CH3OH(g)          0                0 + x               x = 0.11 M

replacing in Ka:

⇒ Ka = ( x ) / (0.49 - x)²(0.27 - x)

⇒ Ka = (0.11) / (0.49 - 0.11)² (0.27 - 0.11)

⇒ Ka = (0.11) / (0.38)²(0.16)

⇒ Ka = 4.76108

Which of the following best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water?
Nadusha1986 [10]

The statement that best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water is as follows: it separates into individual molecules and is an electrolyte, which is option C.

<h3>What is an ionic compound?</h3>

Ionic compound is any compound is a chemical compound composed of ions (charged atoms) held together by electrostatic forces termed ionic bonding.

Ionic compounds are electrolytes i.e. a substance when, in solution or when molten, ionizes and conducts electricity.

For example; sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound breaks down into sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ion (Cl-).

Therefore, the statement that best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water is as follows: it separates into individual molecules and is an electrolyte.
