Answer:

A

Explanation:

increase in energy - hotter and/or more reactive

decrease in energy - colder and/or less reactive

Since it is going from a liquid to solid it will have a tighter arrangement of particles.

The heating curve for a sample of pure ethanol shows the slope of the line for gaseous state is greater than the slope of the li
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

a. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is less than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.

Explanation:

The heating curve is a curve that represents temperature (T) in the y-axis vs. added heat (Q) in the x-axis. The slope is T/Q = 1/C, where C is the heat capacity. Then, the higher the slope, the lower the heat capacity. For a constant mass, it can also represent the specific heat capacity (c).

Heats of vaporization and fusion cannot be calculated from these sections of the heating curve.

<em>Which statement below explains that?</em>

<em>a. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is less than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.</em> YES.

<em>b. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is greater than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.</em> NO.

<em>c. The heat of vaporization of ethanol is less than the heat of fusion of ethanol.</em> NO.

<em>d. The heat of vaporization of ethanol is greater than the heat of fusion of ethanol.</em> NO.

How many miles of C are in 32.6 g of C2H6
sammy [17]
32.6 grams divided by the molar mass of C2H6, which is 18.0584g/mol = 1.8 moles of C2H6.

As there are two carbon atoms per C2H6, we must multiply the number of moles of C2H6 by 2 to get the number of moles of Carbon which is 3.6 moles.
The answer is 3.6 moles.

Hope this helps.
