Liquid nitrogen boils at –195.8°C. Express the boiling point of liquid nitrogen in kelvin
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 77.35 \ K}}[/tex]
Explanation:
The Celsius and Kelvin scales are used to measure the temperature of matter. Their scales and unit differences are the same (1 K increase = 1 °C increase), but they have different starting points.
So, the conversion is quite simple and only requires addition because of the different starting points. The formula is:
[tex]T_K = T_C+ 273.15[/tex]
The boiling point of liquid nitrogen is -195.8 °C. We can substitute this value into the formula.
[tex]T_K= -195.8 + 273.15[/tex]
[tex]T_K= 77.35 K[/tex]
The boiling point of liquid nitrogen is 77.35 Kelvin.

for a reaction, ΔH= 206 kJ/mol and ΔS=0.215 kj/(k•mol). At what temperatures is this reaction spontaneous?
Answer:
When the temperature of the reaction is > 958.1K
Explanation:
A reaction is spontaneous when ΔG < 0.
We can solve this question finding the temperature at which ΔG < 0 using the equation:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
As ΔG < 0
ΔH < TΔS
206kJ/mol < T*0.215kJ/K.mol
958.1K < T
When the temperature of the reaction is > 958.1K, the reaction is spontanous because ΔG < 0.

What is a Chemical Reaction ?A reaction between two or more compounds to form products made after chemical change is called a chemical reaction.
It is given that
A chemical reaction was carried out by mixing 25 g of pure CaCO₃ and 0.75 mole of pure HCl
CaCl₂ , H₂O and CO₂ are the products obtained.
CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + CO₂ + H₂O
Mole ratio CaCO₃ : HCl : CaCl₂ : H₂O = 1 : 2 : 1 : 1
Molar mass of CaCO₃ = 100 g/mol
Molar mass of HCl = 36.5 g/mol
Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol
Molar mass of CaCl₂= 110.98 g/mol
Moles of CaCO₃ = 25/100 = 0.25 moles
Moles of HCl present = 0.75 mole
For 0.25 moles of CaCO₃ 0.5 moles of HCl is required , as the moles of HCl is present in excess therefore
a. CaCO₃ is the limiting reactant
b. mass of CaCl₂ produced
Moles of CaCl₂ produced = 0.25 moles
1 mole means 110.98 gm
0.25 mole means 0.25* 110.98 = 27.74 gm
c. moles of water molecules formed

A sample of oxygen gas has a volume of 89.6 L at STP. How many moles of oxygen gas are present ?
Answer:
89,6/22,4 =4(mol)
Explanation:
There are approximately 1.089 moles of oxygen gas present in the sample at STP.
At STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure), the conditions are defined as follows:
Temperature (T) = 0 degrees Celsius = 273.15 Kelvin
Pressure (P) = 1 atmosphere (atm) = 101.325 kPa = 1013.25 hPa
Now, to find the number of moles of oxygen gas (O2) present in the sample, we can use the ideal gas law:
PV = nRT
Where:
P = pressure (in atm)
V = volume (in liters)
n = number of moles
R = ideal gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/(mol.K)
T = temperature (in Kelvin)
Given:
V = 89.6 L (volume at STP)
T = 273.15 K (STP temperature)
Let's plug in the values and solve for n (number of moles):
n = PV / RT
n = (1 atm) × (89.6 L) / (0.0821 L.atm/(mol.K) × 273.15 K)
n = 1.089 moles
So, there are approximately 1.089 moles of oxygen gas present in the sample at STP.

Answer:
[tex]C_{10}H_8[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to find the molecular formula of the given compound by firstly calculating both moles and grams of carbon in carbon dioxide and hydrogen in water, as the only sources of these elements derived from the compound x due to its combustion:
[tex]n_C=22.35gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44.01gCO_2}*\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}=0.51molC\\\\m_C=0.51molC*\frac{12.01gC}{1molC} =6.10gC[/tex]
[tex]n_H=3.66gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18.02gH_2O}*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O}=0.41molH\\\\m_H=0.41molH*\frac{1.01gH}{1molH}=0.41g[/tex]
Now, since the addition of carbon and hydrogen is about 6.50 grams, we infer the compound has no oxygen, that is why we now set the mole ratios in the empirical formula for both C and H as shown below:
[tex]C:\frac{0.51mol}{0.41mol}= 1.24\\\\H:\frac{0.51mol}{0.51mol}= 1\\\\C_{1.24}H[/tex]
Yet it cannot be decimal, that is why we multiply by 4 to get the correct whole-numbered empirical formula:
[tex]C_5H_4[/tex]
Whose molar mass is 64.09 g/mol, which makes the ratio of molar masses:
[tex]\frac{128.g/mol}{64.09g/mol} =2[/tex]
Therefore, the molecular formula is twice the empirical one:

Does water mess up carbon dating?
Answer:
THE hard-water effect is a recognized source of error in radiocarbon dating. It causes ages to be over-assessed and arises when the material to be dated, such as mollusc shell or plant, synthesizes its skeleton under water and so uses bicarbonate derived in part from old, inert sources.

Nitrogen monoxide and water react to form ammonia and oxygen, like this: (g)(g)(g)(g) Write the pressure equilibrium constant expression for this reaction.
Answer:
Kp = \frac{P(NH_{3}) ^{4} P(O_{2}) ^{5}}{P(NO) ^{4} P(H_{2}O)^{6}}
Explanation:
First, we have to write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction. Nitrogen monoxide (NO) reacts with water (H₂O) to give ammonia (NH₃) and oxygen (O₂), according to the following:
NO(g) + H₂O(g) → NH₃(g) + O₂(g)
To balance the equation, we add the stoichiometric coefficients (4 for NH₃ and NO to balance N atoms, then 6 for H₂O to balance H atoms and then 5 for O₂ to balance O atoms):
4 NO(g) + 6 H₂O(g) → 4 NH₃(g) + 5 O₂(g)
All reactants and products are in the gaseous phase, so the equilibrium constant is expressed in terms of partial pressures (P) and is denoted as Kp. The Kp is expressed as the product of the reaction products (NH₃ and O₃) raised by their stoichiometric coefficients (4 and 5, respectively) divided into the product of the reaction reagents (NO and H₂O) raised by their stoichiometric coefficients (4 and 6, respectively). So, the pressure equilibrium constant expression is written as follows:
[tex]Kp = \frac{P(NH_{3}) ^{4} P(O_{2}) ^{5}}{P(NO) ^{4} P(H_{2}O)^{6}}[/tex]

b. smoke in air
c. carbon dioxide in air
d. milk
Answer:
a. glucose in water( solution)
b. smoke in air (colloids)
c. carbon dioxide in air (solution)
d. milk( colloids)
Explanation:
A solution is said to be formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture. The solute particles are less than 10^-9m in size. Familiar solutions are those where the solute are dissolved in a liquid solvent. When the liquid water, the solution is known as an aqueous solution. A typical example is (glucose in water). In some other cases, the apparent solution of a solute in a solvent is accompanied by a chemical reaction and this is often known as a chemical reaction. A typical example is (carbon dioxide in air).
Colloids are also known as false solutions. Here, the individual solute particles are larger than the particles of the true solution, but not large enough to be seen by the naked eye. When a light beam is placed beside a beaker containing a colloid, the light rays of the beam can be clearly seen. This shows that it exhibits the Tyndall effect while a solution dosent exhibit such.
In a colloid, the liquid solvent is more appropriately know as the DISPERSION medium while the solid solute particles constitute the DISPERSED substance. This can either be solid, liquid or gas.
For example:
--> smoke in air : Dispersion medium is gas while the dispersed substance is solid.
--> milk: Dispersion medium is liquid while the dispersed substance is liquid.
Calculate the mass percent of KCl in a 0.35 m solution of KCl in water. Assume that the density of water is 1.00 g/mL.
Answer:
Mass percent of KCl is 2.61 %
Explanation:
Our solute is KCl
Our solvent is water
m means molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)
1 kg = 1000 g
0.35 m means that 0.35 moles of KCl are contained in 1000g of solvent
We determine mass of solute: 0.35 mol . 74.55 g/mol = 26.09 g
Total mass of solution is: mass of solute + mass of solvent
26.09 g + 1000 g = 1026.09 g
Mass percent of KCl = (mass of KCl/ mass of solution) . 100
(26.09 / 1026.09) . 100 = 2.61 %
