A new element (solid at room temperature) is discovered that has:

Chemistry
1 answer:
gtnhenbr [62]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A metalloid is a substance that has both the qualities of a metal and a non metal. Metals conduct electricity and have a high melting point.The element described does not conduct electricity until temperatures are reduced therefore it is not a metal. The fact that conduction occurs when temperatures are reduced means that it is not a non metal because non metals do not conduct electricity at all. Therefore the element is a metaloid because it exhibits some properties of a metal and others of a non mental.

A sample of helium has a volume of 5 liters and a pressure of 699 mmHg. If the final volume is 5.7 Liters, its final temperature
malfutka [58]

Answer:

The initial temperature of helium was T1 = 232.23 K

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume V1 = 5 L

Initial pressure P1 = 699 mmHg

Final pressure P2 = 800 mmHg

Final volume V2 = 5.7 L

Final temperature T2= 303 K

Initial temperature T1 = ?

Solution:

Formula:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

T1 = T2 × P1V1/P2V2

T1 = 303 K × 699 mmHg × 5 L / 800 mmHg × 5.7 L

T1 = 1058985/ 4560

T1 = 232.23 K

initial temperature of helium was 232.23 k.

How isa molecule of mercury different from a molocue of water
Genrish500 [490]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The density of mercury molecule is higher than water.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Density is defined as mass per unit volume.In other words, density is the amount of matter within a given amount of space. water has the density of 1.0 gram per milliliter whereas the mercury has a density of 13.6 grams per centimeter squared.

One reason for the differences in density between mercury and water is that the atomic mass of mercury is 200.59 grams per mole. The atomic mass of water is 18.0 grams per mole. This is because mercury has a larger nucleus than hydrogen or water.

Additionally, there are strong inter-molecular forces (hydrogen bonds) between water molecules. hydrogen molecules do not stack upon one another as nicely as mercury atoms. Thus, there is additional empty spaces between the water molecules leading to its lower mass per volume(density)

A) 2Fe(s) + O2(g) =&gt;
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:  -22.2 kJ

Explanation:

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps. SGDSDGSDGSDGgsg

According to Hess’s law, the chemical equation can be treated as algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

(1)  2Fe(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2FeO(s)  \Delta H_1=-544.0kJ

(2)  4Fe(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3(s)  \Delta H_2=-1648.4kJ

(3)  Fe_3O_4(s)\rightarrow 3Fe(s)+2O_2(g)  \Delta H=+1118.4kJ

Reversing 1 ,2 and 3 and halving 1 and 2 and then adding we get net equation:

(4) Fe_2O_3(s)+FeO(s)\rightarrow Fe_3O_4(s)  \Delta H_4=?

\Delta H_4=\frac{-\Delta H_1}{2}+\frac{-\Delta H_2}{2}+(-\Delta H_3)=\frac{544.0}{2}+\frac{1648.4}{2}+(-1118.4)=-22.2kJ

Therefore, the heat of reaction, ΔH, for the reaction is -22.2 kJ
