Answer:

80.92, Krypton

Explanation:

<u>What is effusion?</u>

• It is a process where gas escapes through a pinhole (a very small hole) into a region of low pressure or vacuum

<u>Graham's law of effusion of </u><u>gas</u>

• states that at a given constant temperature and pressure, the rate of effusion of gases is inversely proportional to the square root of their molar masses

\boxed{ \frac{Rate_1}{Rate_2} =  \sqrt{ \frac{M_2}{M_1} } }

<u>Calculations</u>

Nitrogen exist as N₂ at room temperature, thus its molar mass is 2(14)= 28.

Let the rate and molar mass of unknown gas be Rate₂ and M₂ respectively.

Since N₂ effuses 1.7 times as fast as the unknown gas,

Rate₁= 1.7(Rate₂)

\frac{Rate_1}{Rate_2} = 1.7

1. 7 =  \sqrt{ \frac{M_2}{28} }

Square both sides:

2.89  = \frac{M_2}{28}

Multiply both sides by 28:

2.89(28)= M₂

M₂= 80.92

<u>Identity of </u><u>gas</u>

The molar mass of 80.92 lies between Bromine and Krypton. However since Bromine exist as Br₂, the value of it's molar mass would be 159.8 instead. Hence, Bromine is eliminated.

If the gas is a diatomic element, the atomic weight is 80.92 ÷2= 40.46. Thus, we are now considering if Argon could be its identity. However, Argon is a noble gas and will not exist as a diatomic element. Argon is therefore eliminated too.

Thus based on the above reasoning, its probable identity is Krypton.

Calculate the number of moles of C2H6 in 6.29×1023 molecules of C2H6.
Kipish [7]

1.05moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of molecules of C₂H₆ = 6.29 x 10²³molecules

Unknown:

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

The mole is the amount of substances that contains Avogadro's number of particles i.e 6.02 x 10²³

 To find the number of moles:

  number of moles = \frac{number of particles}{Avogadro's number}

  number of moles = \frac{6.29 x 10^{23} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }

  number of moles = 1.05moles

As a student , what can you do to help in preventing pollution in your community ?​
aliya0001 [1]

Answer: as a student , i will  do to help in preventing pollution in my  community :

Reduce the number of trips you take in your car.

Reduce or eliminate fireplace and wood stove use.

Avoid burning leaves, trash, and other materials.

Avoid using gas-powered lawn and garden equipment.

Using non-toxic or less toxic chemicals as cleaners, degreasers and other maintenance chemicals. Implementing water and energy conservation practices. Reusing materials such as drums and pallets rather than disposing of them as waste.

Store your household chemicals (including cleaning products, paints, fuel canisters, etc.) as far away as possible from the living space and, if possible, in metal cabinets. Do not store chemicals in areas where you spend most of the time. Also, do not store chemicals in open cabinets or shelves.

Use Public Transportation. Use your vehicle a lot less often. .

Drive Smart. .

Do Regular Car Check-Up. .

Keep Car Tires Properly Inflated. .

Buy Energy-Efficient Vehicles. .

Consider “going green” .

Plant a Garden. .

Use Low-VOC or Water-based Paints.

Avoid smoking indoors (but quitting smoking is the best answer for overall health).

Use craft supplies in well-ventilated areas.

Make sure your gas stove is well-ventilated.

Minimize clutter.

Remove carpeting if possible.

Use a dehumidifier and/or air conditioner to reduce moisture.

How can students help reduce pollution?

Help Recycling

The most obvious things to reuse are plastic, glass, metal, and paper or fabric (paper and organic fabric are made of the same component, cellulose, and are recycled in a similar way). The color-coded trash bins show where each of these components can be put to be recycled in a proper way.

Draw a Lewis structure for C2H3Cl . Include all hydrogen atoms and show all unshared electron pairs. None of the atoms bears a f
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

See attached picture.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since C2H3Cl is an organic compound we need a central C-C parent chain to which the three hydrogen atoms and one chlorine atom provides the electrons to get all the octets except for H as given on the statement.

In such a way, on the attached picture you can find the required Lewis dot structure without formal charges and with all the unshared electron pairs, considering there is a double bond binding the central carbon atoms in order to compete their octets.

Best regards!

If I have 21 liters of gas held at a pressure of 78 atm and a temperature of 900 K, what will
shusha [124]

Answer:

30.33L

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law which states that the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure, provided temperature remains constant  and Charles law states that the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to the temperature provided the pressure remains constant

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/ T2

P1 =  78atm, V1 = 21L , T1 = 900K

P2 = 45atm, V2 = ? , T2 =750K

78× 21 / 900 = 45×V2 / 750

1638/900 = 45 V2 / 750

1638×750 = 900×45V2

1228500 = 40500V2

Divide both sides by 40500

1228500÷40500= V2

V2 = 30.33L
