When 0.514 g of biphenyl (C12H10) undergoes combustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises from 25.8 C to 29.4 C. Find ⌂E rxn for the combustion of biphenyl in kJ/mol biphenyl. The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter, determined in a separate experiment, is 5.86 kJ/ C.
<span>The answer is - 6.30 * 10^3 kJ/mol

Answer:
hypochlorite ion
Explanation:
The hypochlorous acid, HClO, is a weak acid with Ka = 1.36x10⁻³, when this acid is in solution with its conjugate base, ClO⁻ (From sodium hypochlorite, NaClO) a buffer is produced. When a strong acid as HCl is added, the reaction that occurs is:
HCl + ClO⁻ → HClO + Cl⁻.
Where more hypochlorous acid is produced.
That means, the HCl reacts with the hypochlorite ion present in solution
The empirical formula for a compound is KClO3
Explanation
find the moles of each element
moles = % composition/molar mass
molar mass of of potassium =39g/mol ,chlorine = 35.5 g/mol, oxygen =16 g/mol
moles of potassium = 31.9 / 39 = 0.818 moles
moles of chlorine = 28.9/35.5 = 0.814 moles
moles of oxygen = 39.2/ 16 = 2.45 moles
find the mole ratio by dividing with the smallest mole = 0.814 moles
potassium = 0.818/0.814 =1
chlorine = 0.814/0.814 = 1
oxygen = 2.45 /0.814 =3
the empirical formula is therefore = KClO3
Answer:
A catalytic converter changes nitrogen dioxide to nitrogen gas and oxygen gas is a chemical change.
Explanation:
Hello.
In this case, since physical changes do not modify the molecular composition and structure of the material undergoing it whereas the chemical change does, for catalytic converters we should know they promote chemical reaction in which the composition is changed; for instance, for the given example, the following chemical reaction is the evidence:
As you can see, nitrogen and oxygen are no longer bonded but separated by themselves, therefore, this is a chemical change.
Best regards.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
First of all it is important to know that a half filled orbital is particularly stable. In phosphorus all the electrons occur singly in the 3p sublevel minimizing inter electronic repulsion hence it is more difficult to remove an electron from this energetically stable arrangement. In sulphur, electrons are paired in one of the 3p orbitals thereby lowering the energy of that level due to instability caused by interelectronic repulsion between two electrons in the same orbital.
