Answer:

Molecule

Explanation:

molecule of the substance.  You can break the molecule down further, into the atoms that make it up, but those don't have the properties of the original  'compound'.

Here's an example:

-- Sodium is a soft, slippery metal, that explodes when water touches it.

-- Chlorine is a poisonous green gas.

When an atom of Sodium and an atom of Chlorine combine, they make one molecule of a substance called "Sodium Chloride".  That's SALT !  It isn't green, it isn't a gas, it isn't poisonous, it isn't soft and slippery, and it doesn't explode when water touches it.

The ksp of manganese(ii) carbonate, mnco3, is 2.42 × 10-11. calculate the solubility of this compound in g/l.
Vikki [24]

Answer :  The solubility of this compound in g/L is 565.414\times 10^{-6}g/L.

Solution : Given,

K_{sp}=2.42\times 10^{-11}

Molar mass of MnCO_3 = 114.945g/mole

The balanced equilibrium reaction is,

                      MnCO_3\rightleftharpoons Mn^{2+}+CO^{2-}_3

At equilibrium                         s       s

The expression for solubility constant is,

K_{sp}=[Mn^{2+}][CO^{2-}_3]

Now put the given values in this expression, we get

2.42\times 10^{-11}=(s)(s)\\2.42\times 10^{-11}=s^2\\s=0.4919\times 10^{-5}=4.919\times 10^{-6}moles/L

The value of 's' is the molar concentration of manganese ion and carbonate ion.

Now we have to calculate the solubility in terms of g/L multiplying by the Molar mass of the given compound.

s=4.919\times 10^{-6}moles/L\times 114.945g/mole=565.414\times 10^{-6}g/L

Therefore, the solubility of this compound in g/L is 565.414\times 10^{-6}g/L.

What forces hold network solids together?
mezya [45]

Answer:

Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.

Any help would be appreciated. Confused.

Answer:

q(problem 1) = 25,050 joules;  q(problem 2) = 4.52 x 10⁶ joules

Explanation:

To understand these type problems one needs to go through a simple set of calculations relating to the 'HEATING CURVE OF WATER'. That is, consider the following problem ...

=> Calculate the total amount of heat needed to convert 10g ice at -10°C to steam at 110°C. Given are the following constants:

Heat of fusion (ΔHₓ) = 80 cal/gram

Heat of vaporization (ΔHv) = 540 cal/gram

specific heat of ice [c(i)] = 0.50 cal/gram·°C

specific heat of water [c(w)] = 1.00 cal/gram·°C

specific heat of steam [c(s)] = 0.48 cal/gram·°C

Now, the problem calculates the heat flow in each of five (5) phase transition regions based on the heating curve of water (see attached graph below this post) ...   Note two types of regions (1) regions of increasing slopes use q = mcΔT and (2) regions of zero slopes use q = m·ΔH.

q(warming ice) =  m·c(i)·ΔT = (10g)(0.50 cal/g°C)(10°C) = 50 cal

q(melting) = m·ΔHₓ = (10g)(80cal/g) 800 cal

q(warming water) = m·c(w)·ΔT = (10g)(1.00 cal/g°C)(100°C) = 1000 cal

q(evaporation of water) =  m·ΔHv = (10g)(540cal/g) = 5400 cal

q(heating steam) = m·c(s)·ΔT = (10g)(0.48 cal/g°C)(10°C) = 48 cal

Q(total) = ∑q = (50 + 800 + 1000 + 5400 + 48) = 7298 cals. => to convert to joules, multiply by 4.184 j/cal => q = 7298 cals x 4.184 j/cal = 30,534 joules = 30.5 Kj.

Now, for the problems in your post ... they represent fragments of the above problem. All you need to do is decide if the problem contains a temperature change (use q = m·c·ΔT) or does NOT contain a temperature change (use q = m·ΔH).    

Problem 1: Given Heat of Fusion of Water = 334 j/g, determine heat needed to melt 75g ice.

Since this is a phase transition (melting), NO temperature change occurs; use q = m·ΔHₓ = (75g)(334 j/g) = 25,050 joules.

Problem 2: Given Heat of Vaporization = 2260 j/g; determine the amount of heat needed to boil to vapor 2 Liters water ( = 2000 grams water ).

Since this is a phase transition (boiling = evaporation), NO temperature change occurs; use q = m·ΔHf = (2000g)(2260 j/g) = 4,520,000 joules = 4.52 x 10⁶ joules.

Problems containing a temperature change:

NOTE: A specific temperature change will be evident in the context of problems containing temperature change => use q = m·c·ΔT. Such is associated with the increasing slope regions of the heating curve.  Good luck on your efforts. Doc :-)
