How does the kinetic molecular theory explain the fact that gases condense into liquids?

Elenna [48]

<h3>Condensation of gases into liquids by kinetic molecular theory:</h3>

The "kinetic molecular theory" explains the states of matter based on the matter composed of very tiny little particles that are constantly in motion. The theory also explains the observable properties and behaviors of solids, liquids, and gases.

Condensation of particles of a real gas to form liquid is due to the attractive forces present in between them. During the condensation process, gas molecules slows down and come together to form a liquid. And also during the transfer of energy to something cooler, the process slows down and they attract the bond to become liquid. Each particle motion is completely independent. The kinetic energy of gas particles is dependent on the temperature of the gas.

Determine the limiting reactant (lr) and the mass (in g) of nitrogen that can be formed from 50.0 g n2o4 and 45.0 g n2h4. some p

Licemer1 [7]

N2O4(l) + 2 N2H4(l) → 3 N2(g) + 4 H2O(g)
1) to calculate the limiting reactant you need to pass grams to moles.
 moles is calculated by dividing mass by molar mass

mass of N2O4: 50.0 g
molar mass of N2O4 = 92.02 g/mol
molar mass of N2H4 = 32.05 g/mol.
mass of N2H4:45.0 g

moles N2O4=50.0/92.02 g/mol= 0,54 mol of N2O4
moles N2H4= 45/32.05 g/mol= 1,40 mol of N2H4

 2)
By looking at the balanced equation, you can see that 1 mol of N2O4 needs 2 moles of N2H4 to fully react . So to react 0,54 moles of N2O4, you need 2x0,54 moles of N2H4 moles
N2H4 needed = 1,08 moles.
You have more that 1,08 moles N2H4, so this means the limiting reagent is not N2H4, it's N2O4. The molecule that has molecules that are left is never the limiting reactant.

3) 1 mol of N2O4 reacting, will produce 3 mol of N2 (look at the equation)
There are 0,54 mol of N2O4 available to react, so how many moles will produce of N2?
1 mol N2O4------------3 mol of N2
0,54 mol N2O4--------x
x=1,62 mol of N2

4) the only thing left to do is convert the moles obtained, to grams.
We use the same formula as before, moles equal to mass divided by molar mass.
$moles= \frac{grams}{molar mass}$ (molar mass of N2= 28)
1,62 mol of N2= mass/ 28
mass of N2= 45,36 grams

Is there a clear difference between a very polar covalent bond and an ionic bond explain?

garik1379 [7]

Yes, Ionic bonds do not share electrons. Polar covalent bonds share electrons they just share them unevenly due to the polarity.

How should you measure the mass of a given powdered substance??

Lelu [443]

To measure the mass of a given powdered substance do the following:
1. Zero the weighing balance, that is, put the weigh balance at zero mark.
2. Put an empty weighing paper on the balance and take its reading. Record it as X1.
3. Use spatula to put the powder you want to measure on the weighing paper on the balance. Take your reading and record it as X2.
The mass of the powered is X2 - X1.

A substance placed in a container has a fixed volume and takes up the shape of the container. In which state does this substance

Tems11 [23]

The substance should be in liquid state.

First, it takes up space in the container, which leads to that it shouldn't be a solid, because solid doesn't change its shape easily.

Second, it has a fixed volume, it's difficult to compress the substance, therefore it shouldn't be gas too, as gas can be compressed easily.

Therefore we're left with liquid. And both of these given properties fits the property of liquid.
