Answer:
Elemental gold to have a Face-centered cubic structure.
Explanation:
From the information given:
Radius of gold = 144 pm
Its density = 19.32 g/cm³
Assuming the structure is a face-centered cubic structure, we can determine the density of the crystal by using the following:


a = 407 pm
In a unit cell, Volume (V) = a³
V = (407 pm)³
V = 6.74 × 10⁷ pm³
V = 6.74 × 10⁻²³ cm³
Recall that:
Net no. of an atom in an FCC unit cell = 4
Thus;


density d = 19.41 g/cm³
Similarly; For a body-centered cubic structure

where;
r = 144


a = 332.56 pm
In a unit cell, Volume V = a³
V = (332.56 pm)³
V = 3.68 × 10⁷ pm³
V 3.68 × 10⁻²³ cm³
Recall that:
Net no. of atoms in BCC cell = 2
∴


density =17.78 g/cm³
From the two calculate densities, we will realize that the density in the face-centered cubic structure is closer to the given density.
This makes the elemental gold to have a Face-centered cubic structure.
M(P)=3.72 g
M(P)=31 g/mol
m(Cl)=21.28 g
M(Cl)=35.5 g/mol
n(P)=m(P)/M(P)
n(P)=3.72/31=0.12 mol
n(Cl)=m(Cl)/M(Cl)
n(Cl)=21.28/35.5=0.60 mol
P : Cl = 0.12 : 0.60 = 1 : 5
PCl₅ - is the empirical formula
Answer:
-125.4
Explanation:
Target equation is 4C(s) + 5H2(g) = C4H10
These are the data equations for enthalpy of combustion
- C(s) + O2(g) =O2(g) -393.5 kJ/mol * 4
- H2(g) + ½O2(g) =H20(l) = 285.8 kJ/mol * 5
- 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l) = 13/2O2 (g) + C4H10 - 2877.1 reverse
To get target equation multiply data equation 1 by 4; multiply equation 2 by 5; and reverse equation 3, so...
Calculate 4(-393.5) + 5(-285.8) + 2877.6 and you should get the answer.
