Explain, in terms of particles, what happens when methane boils and why

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ronch [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:Butane > ethane > methane, because between bigger molecules there are stronger van der Waals forces and also higher molar mass means they need to be given more energy to have enough kinetic energy to move quickly, freely in gas.

There are multiple butene isomers (Butene) and some (2-Butenes - cis and trans) actually have higher boiling point than n-Butane (there is also Isobutane, of course, with quite much lower boiling point than all of them) and some (1-Butene, Isobutylene) have lower, so this isn't really a fair or simple question. But on simplest level, it can again be said that 1-butene has lower boiling point because it has very similar shape but slightly lower molar mass (2H less) than n-butane.

if 334.6 g of phosphoric acid is reacted with excess potassium hydroxide. the final mass K3PO4 produced is found to be 248g. wha
Orlov [11]

Answer:

                     %age Yield  =  34.21 %

Explanation:

                   The balance chemical equation for the decomposition of KClO₃ is as follow;

                            3 KOH + H₃PO₄ → K₃PO₄ + 3 H₂O

Step 1: Calculate moles of H₃PO₄ as;

Moles = Mass / M/Mass

Moles = 334.6 g / 97.99 g/mol

Moles = 3.414 moles

Step 2: Find moles of K₃PO₄ as;

According to equation,

                 1 moles of H₃PO₄ produces  =  1 moles of K₃PO₄

So,

              3.414 moles of H₃PO₄ will produce  =  X moles of K₃PO₄

Solving for X,

                      X = 1 mol × 3.414 mol / 1 mol

                      X = 3.414 mol of K₃PO₄

Step 3: Calculate Theoretical yield of K₃PO₄ as,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 3.414 mol × 212.26 g/mol

Mass = 724.79 g of K₃PO₄

Also,

%age Yield  =  Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100

%age Yield  =  248 g / 724.79 × 100

%age Yield  =  34.21 %
