Why did Cyrus Field want to build a transatlantic telegraph?

Chemistry

Paul [167]2 years ago
5 0

In 1854, Cyrus West Field conceived the idea of the telegraph cable and secured a charter to lay a well-insulated line across the floor of the Atlantic Ocean. Obtaining the aid of British and American naval ships, he made four unsuccessful attempts, beginning in 1857.

Alina [70]
Barium chloride + sodium sulphate --> barium sulphate + sodium chloride
BaCl2 + Na2SO4 ---> BaSO4 + 2 NaCl
The barium sulphate appears as a white precipitate

Silver nitrate +  Sodium chloride ---> Silver Chloride + sodium nitrate
AgNO3 + NaCl ----> AgCl + NaNO3
The silver chloride appears as a white precipitate.

These  are sometimes called double decomposition reactions.

What type of reaction is : CaCo3+ HCl = CaCl2 + CO2 +H2O
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Double decomposition reaction

Explanation:

When hydrochloric acid reacts with any carbonates/hydrogen carbonates the products formed are metal chloride , water and carbon dioxide.Since HCl decomposes salts of weaker acids.

So the equation of the reaction between calcium carbonate and HCl is:

CaCO3+2HCl =CaCl2+H2O+CO2

This reaction is also known as double decomposition reaction.

When 21.45 g of KNO3 was dissolved in water in a calorimeter, the temperature fell from 25.00°C to 14.14 °C. If the heat capacit

25.9 kJ/mol. (3 sig. fig. as in the heat capacity.)

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The process:

\text{KNO}_3\;(s) \to \text{KNO}_3\;(aq).

How many moles of this process?

Relative atomic mass from a modern periodic table:

  • K: 39.098;
  • N: 14.007;
  • O: 15.999.

Molar mass of \text{KNO}_3:

M(\text{KNO}_3) = 39.098 + 14.007 + 3\times 15.999 = 101.102\;\text{g}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}.

Number of moles of the process = Number of moles of \text{KNO}_3 dissolved:

\displaystyle n = \frac{m}{M} = \frac{21.45}{101.102} = 0.212162\;\text{mol}.

What's the enthalpy change of this process?

Q = C\cdot \Delta T = 0.505 \times (25.00 - 14.14) = 5.4843\;\text{kJ} for 0.212162\;\text{mol}. By convention, the enthalpy change \Delta H measures the energy change for each mole of a process.

\displaystyle \Delta H = \frac{Q}{n} = \frac{5.4843\text{kJ}}{0.212162\;\text{mol}} = 25.8\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}.

The heat capacity is the least accurate number in these calculation. It comes with three significant figures. As a result, round the final result to three significant figures. However, make sure you keep at least one additional figure to minimize the risk of rounding errors during the calculation.
