Vesna [10]3 years ago
8 0

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

NaCl has a mc020-1.jpgHfus = 30.2 kJ/mol. What is the mass of a sample of NaCl that needs 732.6 kJ of heat to melt completely?
lilavasa [31]

Answer: The mass of the sample will be 1417.7 grams.

Explanation:

We are given:

\Delta H_{fusion}=30.2kJ/mol

This means that 1 mole of NaCl has an enthalpy of fusion of 30.2 kJ

1 mole of NaCl has a mass of 58.44 grams.

So, 30.2 kJ of heat is require for a mass 58.44 grams of NaCl

So, 732.6 kJ of heat will be required for = \frac{58.44g}{30.2kJ}\times 732.6 kJ = 1417.65 grams of NaCl.

Hence, the mass of NaCl sample will be 1417.7 grams.

A mixture of nitrogen gas and oxygen gas has a total pressure of 123.5 kPa. If the
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer: 19kpa

Explanation:

The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressure exacted by the individual gases.

P total = P X + P Y

From the question above:

P total = P .nitrogen + P. oxygen

123.5kpa = 104.5kpa + P. Oxygen

P. Oxygen = 123.5kpa - 104.5kpa

= 19kpa

9) After lab, all of Darrel’s friends looked at his data and laughed and laughed. They told him that he was 30.8% too low in the
zaharov [31]
If he was 30.8% too low, it means that he was at 69.2% of the boiling point needed. So 50o C is 69.2% of total.

In order to know what 100% is, you can divide the number by it's percentage and then multiply it by a hundred.

So: 50/30.8=1.623
1.623*100=162.3
So the correct boiling point of the liquid he was working with in the lab is 162.3 oC
