Magnesium oxide is an ionic compound with a very high melting point and which requires a large amount of energy for melting.

<h3>What are ionic compounds?</h3>

Ionic compounds are compounds which are formed between oppositely charged ions which are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions.

Ionic compounds are formed when metal atoms donate electrons to non-metals atoms to form ions.

Magnesium oxide is an ionic compound.

The nature of bonding is ionic bonding.

It has a crystalline lattice structure.

The forces of attraction is electrostatic forces of attraction.

It has a high melting point of 2,852 °C, and thus requires a large amount of energy go melting to occur.

Therefore, magnesium oxide is an ionic compound which requires a large amount of energy for melting.

Given the following values for the change in enthalpy (deltaH) and entropy (deltaS), which of the following processes can occur

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Option A and B

Explanation:

(a) DeltaH = -84 kj mol-2 (-20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(+30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G = Delta H – T * DS

Substituting the given values, we get –

Delta G = -84 -298 *(125/1000) = -121.25 KJ/mol

Delta G is negative hence the process is spontaneous and will not violate the second law of thermodynamics

(b) DeltaH = -84 kj mol-2 (-20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = -125j mol-2K-1)(-30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G =-84 -298 *(-125/1000) = -46.75 KJ/mol

Delta G is negative hence the process is spontaneous and will not violate the second law of thermodynamics

Delta G = 84 -298 *(125/1000) = +46.75 KJ/mol

Delta G is positive hence the process is non-spontaneous and will violate the second law of thermodynamics

(d) DeltaH = +84 kj mol-2 (+20 kcal mol-1), DeltaS = +125j mol-2K-1)(-30 cal mol-1 K-1)

Delta G = 84 -298 *(-125/1000) = + 121.25 KJ/mol

Delta G is positive hence the process is non-spontaneous and will violate the second law of thermodynamics

If a gas occupies 733 mL at 10.0 °C, at what temperature will it occupy 950 mL, assuming the pressure of the gas remains constan

raketka [301]

This is an example of Charles’ Law problems, the basic equation is: V1/T1 = V2/T2. One vital thing to recall for all gas law problems is that the temperature must be in Kelvin (not Celsius).
So our given is 10.0 C = 283 K. So
V1/T1 = V2/T2
733/283 = 950/T2

T2 = 367 K

A sample of mercury has a mass of 607.0 lb and a volume of 0.717 ft. What is its specific gravity? Number SG= What are the units

stepan [7]

Answer:

Specific gravity of mercury is 13.56 and it is an unit-less quantity.

Explanation:

Mass of the mercury = m = 607.0 lb = 275330.344 g

1 lb = 453.592 g

Volume of the mercury = v = $0.717 ft^3=20,303.18 mL$

$1 ft^3 = 28316.847 mL$

Density of the mercury = d= $\frac{m}{v}=\frac{275330.344 g}{20,303.18 mL}$

d = 13.56 g/mL

Specific gravity of substance = Density of substance ÷ Density of water

$S.G=\frac{d}{1 g/mL}$

Specific gravity of mercury :

$S.G=\frac{13.56 g/mL}{1 g/mL}=13.56$ (unit-less quantity)

In an investigation, explain the best way to use variables in an experiment

vazorg [7]

Answer:

An experiment is an investigation in which a hypothesis is scientifically tested. In an experiment, an independent variable (the cause) is manipulated and the dependent variable (the effect) is measured; any extraneous variables are controlled. An advantage is that experiments should be objective.
