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.

Is an example of the carbon cycle occurring slowly?(1 point)
o-na [289]

Decomposition is a part of the carbon cycle that occurs slowly hence  movement of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere when bacteria decomposes dead matter is a slow part of the carbon cycle.

<h3>What is the carbon cycle?</h3>

The carbon cycle is part of the biogeochemical cycles that exist in nature. It refers to the movement of carbon in the ecosystem. The carbon cycle cuts across the air, the land and the water bodies.

The process in the carbon cycle that occurs slowly among the options is the movement of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere when bacteria decomposes dead matter.

Many computer chips are manufactured from silicon, which occurs in nature as SiO2. When SiO2 is heated to melting, it reacts wit
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

A) SiO2 is the limiting reactant

B) Theoretical yield= 72333.3g

C) % yield =91.5%

Explanation:

SiO2(s) + 2C(s) --------------> Si(s) + 2CO(g)

n(SiO2)= 155000/60 = 2583.33 mols

n(C)= 79000/12= 3291.66 mols

a)SiO2 is the limiting reactant

According to the balanced reaction equation,

60g of SiO2 produced 28g of SiO2

155000g of SiO2 will produce 155000×28/60= 72333.3g

Therefore theoretical yield of Si= 72333.3g

% yield= 66200/72333.3×100/1 =91.5%
