Why is this temperature scale (Celsius) different and/or better than the other temperature scales?

Chemistry

Vesna [10]2 years ago

Answer:

They are used because of preference or convenience, not necessity. These scales came about historically when there were no standards to calibrate a thermometer against. The Fahrenheit scale used the temperature of the coldest thing then known for its zero, which was salty ice.13-Oct-2019

How much energy must be removed from a 94.4 g sample of benzene (molar mass= 78.11 g/mol) at 322.0 K to solidify the sample and
Kay [80]

Answer : The energy removed must be, 29.4 kJ

Explanation :

The process involved in this problem are :

(1):C_6H_6(l)(322K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(l)(279K)\\\\(2):C_6H_6(l)(279K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(s)(279K)\\\\(3):C_6H_6(s)(279K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(s)(205K)

The expression used will be:  

Q=[m\times c_{p,l}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]+[m\times \Delta H_{fusion}]+[m\times c_{p,s}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]

where,

Q = heat released for the reaction = ?

m = mass of benzene = 94.4 g

c_{p,s} = specific heat of solid benzene = 1.51J/g^oC=1.51J/g.K

c_{p,l} = specific heat of liquid benzene = 1.73J/g^oC=1.73J/g.K

\Delta H_{fusion} = enthalpy change for fusion = -9.8kJ/mol=-\frac{9.8\times 1000J/mol}{78g/mol}=-125.6J/g

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

Q=[94.4g\times 1.73J/g.K\times (279-322)K]+[94.4g\times -125.6J/g]+[94.4g\times 1.51J/g.K\times (205-279)K]

Q=-29427.312J=-29.4kJ

Negative sign indicates that the heat is removed from the system.

Therefore, the energy removed must be, 29.4 kJ

Which solutions is more basic: a solution with a pH of 9 or a solution<br> with a pH of 12?
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Explanation:

pH= 7 is neutral, pH<7 - acidic solutions,

pH>7 - basic solution.

The more value of pH, the more basic solution is.

So, the solution with pH = 12 is more basic.

In lab, a dialysis bag was filled with a 10% sucrose solution and placed in an unlabeled beaker filled with clear liquid. The di
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Of lower concentration or less concentrated

Explanation:

Osmosis is the movement of solvent from a region of lower concentration of solute to a region of higher concentration of solute through a semipermeable membrane in order to equalize the concentration of the solutions on both sides.

Since the membrane of the bag is semipermeable, then the fact that the bag in the beaker decreased in size, lost volume, and became flaccid indicates that the solution in the bag is of lower solute concentration than the solution in the beaker hence the movement of water molecules into the beaker by osmosis.
