How you rank the following items in order of complexity.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Natalija [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

lowest to Highest

Carbon atom

Methane molecule (CH4)

Graphite

Diamond

Explanation:

A carbon atom would be the lowest complexity on this list, that is because it is a lone molecule with no other bonding between other atoms. The same forces interacting between the carbon atom would be the same for the others.

Next would be methane. Methane is a hydrocarbon composed of a single carbon atom bonded covalently with four hydrogens. The electrons within the hydrogen atoms repel each other causing them to be dispersed around the carbon atom to form a   tetrahedral shape. While more complex, the other two are continuous structures made from carbon atoms bonded to gather to form crystal structures.

Graphite is considered to be a crystal structure, just like a diamond. However, the biggest difference between them is their atomic and crystal frameworks. Diamonds have a rigid 3-dimensional structure whilst graphite is composed of 2d planes of graphite with carbon-carbon double bonds connecting the layers. Due to this, a diamond would be more complex then grpahite

The enthalpy change of the reaction when sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid react can be calculated using the mass of solution, temperature change, and specific heat of water.

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction can be represented as,

H_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + 2NaOH (aq) ----> Na_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + 2H_{2}O(l)

Given volume of the solution = 101.2 mL + 50.6 mL = 151.8 mL

Heat of the reaction, q = m C .ΔT

m is mass of the solution = 151.8 mL * \frac{1 g}{1 mL} = 151.8 g

C is the specific heat of solution = 4.18 \frac{J}{g. ^{0}C}

ΔT is the temperature change = 31.50^{0}C - 21.45^{0}C = 10.05^{0}C

q = 151.8 g (4.18 \frac{J}{g ^{0}C})(10.05^{0}C) = 6377 J

Moles of NaOH = 101.2 mL * \frac{1L}{1000 mL}*\frac{1.00 mol}{L} = 0.1012 mol NaOH

Moles of H_{2}SO_{4} = 50.6 mL * \frac{1 L}{1000 mL} * \frac{1.0 mol}{1 L} = 0.0506 mol H_{2}SO_{4}

Enthalpy of the reaction = \frac{6377 J*\frac{1kJ}{1000J}}{0.0506 mol} = 126 kJ/mol

A star is estimated to have a mass of 2.0 x 10 ^36kg. Assuming it to be a sphere of average radius of 7.0 x 10 ^5 km. Calculate
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

<em>a)</em> <em>1.392 x 10^6 g/cm^3</em>

<em>b) 8.69 x 10^7 lb/ft^3</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

mass of the star m =  2.0 x 10^36 kg

radius of the star (assumed to be spherical) r = 7.0 x 10^5 km = 7.0 x 10^8 m

The density of substance ρ = mass/volume

The volume of the star = volume of a sphere = \frac{4}{3}\pi  r^{3}

==> V = \frac{4}{3}*3.142*(7.0*10^8)^{3} = 1.437 x 10^27 m^3

density of the star ρ = (2.0 x 10^36)/(1.437 x 10^27) = 1.392 x 10^9 kg/m^3

in g/cm^3 = (1.392 x 10^9)/1000 = <em>1.392 x 10^6 g/cm^3</em>

in lb/ft^3 =  (1.392 x 10^9)/16.018 = <em>8.69 x 10^7 lb/ft^3</em>
