Answer:

239.7mL

Explanation:

Using the general gas equation;

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K)

The balanced chemical equation in this question is as follows:

CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l) --> Ca(OH)2(aq) + C2H2(g)

From the equation, 1 mole of CaC2 produces 1 mole of ethylene gas, C2H2.

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of CaC2 = 40 + 12(2)

= 40 + 24

= 64g/mol

mole = 0.5487/64

mole = 0.00857mol of CaC2

Hence, 0.00857mol of CaC2 produced 0.00857mol of C2H2

Based on the information provided, n = 0.00857mol, T = 43°C = 43 + 273 = 316K, p = 0.926 atm

PV = nRT

V = nRT/P

V = 0.00857 × 0.0821 × 316/0.926

V = 0.222/0.926

V = 0.2397L

In mL, volume = 0.2397 × 1000

= 239.7mL

Calculate ΔrG∘ at 298 K for the following reactions.CO(g)+H2O(g)→H2(g)+CO2(g)2-Predict the effect on ΔrG∘ of lowering the temper
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

1) ΔG°r(298 K) = - 28.619 KJ/mol

2) ΔG°r will decrease with decreasing temperature

Explanation:

  • CO(g) + H2O(g) → H2(g) + CO2(g)

1) ΔG°r = ∑νiΔG°f,i

⇒ ΔG°r(298 K) = ΔG°CO2(g) + ΔG°H2(g) - ΔG°H2O(g) - ΔG°CO(g)

from literature, T = 298 K:

∴ ΔG°CO2(g) = - 394.359 KJ/mol

∴ ΔG°CO(g) = - 137.152 KJ/mol

∴ ΔG°H2(g) = 0 KJ/mol........pure substance

∴ ΔG°H2O(g) = - 228.588 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔG°r(298 K) = - 394.359 KJ/mol + 0 KJ/mol - ( - 228.588 KJ/mol ) - ( - 137.152 KJ7mol )

⇒ ΔG°r(298 K) = - 28.619 KJ/mol

2) K = e∧(-ΔG°/RT)

∴ R = 8.314 E-3 KJ/K.mol

∴ T = 298 K

⇒ K = e∧(-28.619/(8.314 E-3)(298) = 9.624 E-6

⇒ ΔG°r = - RTLnK

If T (↓) ⇒ ΔG°r (↓)

assuming T = 200 K

⇒ ΔG°r(200 K) = - (8.314 E-3)(200)Ln(9.624E-3)

⇒ ΔG°r (200K) = - 19.207 KJ/mol < ΔG°r(298 K) = - 28.619 KJ/mol

How does an electron reach an excited state
quester [9]

When an electron quickly occupies an strength state increased than its ground state, it is in an excited state. An electron can end up excited if it is given greater energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a close by atom or particle.

How many protons (p) and neutrons (n) are in an atom of sr? 38 p, 90 n 90 p, 38 n 38 p, 52 n 52 p, 38 n?
harina [27]
Sr will always have 38 protons because that is its atomic number. Normally Sr has 38 protons and 49 neutrons yielding an atomic mass of 87. unless you are dealing with an isotope of Strontium in which 3 additional neutrons would give you the 53 neutrons in your answer, (38p, 52n).

The component which dissolves in a solution is called the?
VladimirAG [237]

The correct answer is Solute

Explanation:

In chemistry, a solution refers to a homogenous mixture of two substances that occurs through dissolution, this means once they are mixed the substances form a uniform new substance and cannot be easily separated. Additionally, in chemistry, the substances involved in a solution are either classified as solutes if they are the substances that dissolve to form a solution or as solvents in the case of substances in which the solute dissolves in. For example, if you mix salt and water, the salt acts as the solute while the water is the solvent. Thus, the component which dissolves in a solution is called the solute.

What would be the voltage (Ecell) of a voltaic cell comprised of Cd(s)/Cd2+(aq) and Zr(s)/Zr4+(aq) if the concentrations of the
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

1.05 V

Explanation:

Since;

E°cell= E°cathode- E°anode

E°cathode= -0.40 V

E°anode= -1.45 V

E°cell= -0.40-(-1.45) = 1.05 V

Equation of the process;

2Zr(s) + 4Cd^2+(aq) ---->2Zr^4+(aq) + 4Cd(s)

n= 8 electrons transferred

From Nernst's equation;

Ecell = E°cell - 0.0592/n log Q

Ecell= E°cell - 0.0592/8 log [0.5]/[0.5]

Since log 1=0

Ecell= E°cell= 1.05 V
