lisabon 2012 [21]3 years ago
6 0
In 1803AD, Osmium was discovered by Smithson Tennant when dissolving an impure sample of platinum in aqua regia, a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acids. He was able to determine that the black powder left behind after dissolving the platinum was actually a mixture of two new elements, indium and osmium.

•Osmium is a bluish-white and shiny metal.

•Osmium is very hard and is brittle even at very high temperatures.

•Osmium has the lowast vapor pressure and the highest melting point among the platinum group of metals.

•Osmium's density is slightly more than iridium hence is credited as the heaviest element.

If 46.3 grams of acetylene are required to run a carbide lamp for 8 hours, how many moles of water are required
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

1.78 mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

CaC₂ + H₂O ⇒ C₂H₂ + CaO

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 46.3 g of C₂H₂

The molar mass of C₂H₂ is 26.04 g/mol.

46.3 g × 1 mol/26.04 g = 1.78 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of H₂O required to form 1.78 moles of C₂H₂.

The molar ratio of H₂O to C₂H₂ is 1:1. The moles of H₂O required are 1/1 × 1.78 mol = 1.78 mol.

Lena [83]
We calculate the entropy of an ideal gas follows:

<span>For an isothermal compression, change in internal energy is equal to zero.</span>
<span>Thus, the heat added to the gas is equal to the work done on the gas which is given as 1750 J.</span>

<span>Entropy would be 1750/301 = 5.81 J/K </span>
