Answer:

OPTION C is correct

3.86 x 10-19 J

Explanation:

Energy of the line can be calculated using below formula

E= h ν.................(1)

Where E= energy

h= plank constant= 6.626 10-34 J s

c=speed of light=3 x 108 m/s

But we know that Velocity V= = c / λ

Then substitute into equation (1) we have

E = h c / λ.............(2)

We can calculate our( hc ) in nm for unit consistency

h c =( 6.626 ×10^-34)x(3×108)

h c = (1.986 x 10-16 )

hc = 1.986 x 10-16 J nm then since our (hc) and λ are in the same unit , were good to go then substitute into equation(2)

E = h c / λ = (1.986 x 10-16) / 515

E = 3.86 x 10-19 J

Therefore, the Energy is 3.86 x 10-19 J

Hello,

In this case, since the reaction between methane and oxygen is:

[tex]CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O[/tex]

If 0.963 g of methane react with 7.5 g of oxygen the first step is to identify the limiting reactant for which we compute the available moles of methane and the moles of methane consumed by the 7.5 g of oxygen:

[tex]n_{CH_4}=0.963gCH_4*\frac{1molCH_4}{16gCH_4}=0.0602molCH_4\\ \\n_{CH_4}^{consumed}=7.5gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32gO_2}*\frac{1molCH_4}{2molO_2} =0.117molCH_4[/tex]

Thus, since oxygen theoretically consumes more methane than the available, we conclude the methane is the limiting reactant, for which it will be completely consumed, therefore, no remaining methane will be left over.

4.84g of FeO is the theoretical yield

Explanation:

The Iron, Fe(s), reacts with oxygen, O₂(g), producing Iron (II) oxide, as follows:

2Fe(s) + O₂(g) → 2FeO

Theoretical yield is the yield of a reaction in which you assume the 100% of reactants is converted in products.

To find theoretical yield we need to find moles of Iron, and, knowing 2 moles of Fe produce 2 moles of FeO (Ratio 1:1), we can find theoretical yield of FeO as follows:

Moles Fe (Molar mass: 55.845g/mol)

Using the molar mass of the compound we can convert grams to moles, thus:

3.76g Fe × (1mol / 55.845g) = 0.0673 moles of Fe

Moles and mass of FeO

As there are in reaction 0.0673 moles Fe, assuming a theoretical yield (And as ratio of the reaction is 1:1), you will obtain 0.0673 moles of FeO.

Theoretical yield is given in grams, As molar mass of FeO is 71.844g/mol, theoretical yield of the reaction is:

0.0673 moles FeO × (71.844g / mol) =

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

4 NH₃(g) + 5 O₂(g) ⇒ 4 NO(g) + 6 H₂O(g)

Step 2: Calculate the standard free energy change (ΔG°r) for the reaction

We will use the following expression.

ΔG°r = 4 mol × ΔG°f(NO(g)) + 6 mol × ΔG°f(H₂O(g)) - 4 mol × ΔG°f(NH₃(g)) - 5 mol × ΔG°f(O₂(g))

ΔG°r = 4 mol × (86.55 kJ/mol) + 6 mol × (-228.57 kJ/mol) - 4 mol × (-16.45 kJ/mol) - 5 mol × (0 kJ/mol)

ΔG°r = -959.42 kJ

Step 3: Calculate the standard free energy change for 1.81 moles of NH₃

959.42 kJ are released per 4 moles of NH₃.

Answer:

pH of the solution is 2.0

Explanation:

The lactic acid is a weak acid that is in equilibrium with water as follows:

Lactic acid + H2O ⇄ Lactate + H₃O⁺

And Ka for lactic acid: 1.38x10⁻⁴

Ka = 1.38x10⁻⁴ = [Lactate] [H₃O⁺] / [Lactic acid]

Initial concentration of lactic acid is (MW: 112.06g/mol):

80g * (1mol / 112.06g) / 1L = 0.714M

The equilibrium concentration of the species in the equilibrium are:

[Lactate] = X

[H₃O⁺] = X

[Lactic acid] = 0.714-X

Replacing in Ka expression:

1.38x10⁻⁴ = [X] [X] / [0.714-X]

9.8532x10⁻⁵ -  1.38x10⁻⁴X = X²

9.8532x10⁻⁵ -  1.38x10⁻⁴X - X² = 0

Solving for X:

X = -1.0x10⁻². False solution, there is no negative concentrations

X = 9.86x10⁻³M. Right solution.

As [H₃O⁺] = X

[H₃O⁺] = 9.86x10⁻³M

and pH = -log [H₃O⁺] = -log 9.86x10⁻³M

pH = 2.0

Boiling

Explanation:

When a liquid is heated, the vapor pressure rises steadily. When water attains a temperature of 100°C or 212°F its vapor pressure is now equal to the atmospheric pressure at sea level, this is what we mean by boiling.

When this occurs, water continues to evaporate untill the vapor pressure inside the bubbles becomes high enough to stop water bubbles from collapsing again from the pressure of the water around it so the bubbles rise and break the surface.

Answer:

The energy required to heat 1.30 kg of water from 22.4°C to 34.2°C is 64,121.2 J

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement of the amount of heat that a body gives up or absorbs in the course of a physical or chemical process.

The sensible heat of a body is the amount of heat received or transferred by a body when undergoing a temperature variation (Δt) without there being a change in physical state. That is, when a system absorbs (or gives up) a certain amount of heat, it may happen that it experiences a change in its temperature, involving sensible heat. Then, the equation for calculating heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

Where Q is the heat or quantity of energy exchanged by a body of mass m, constituted by a substance of specific heat c and where ΔT is the variation in temperature (ΔT=Tfinal - Tinitial).

In this case:

Replacing:

[tex]Q=4.18 \frac{J}{g*K}*1,300 g*11.8 K[/tex]

Q= 64,121.2 J

The energy required to heat 1.30 kg of water from 22.4°C to 34.2°C is 64,121.2 J

Answer:

The reaction given is:

In (g) + H₂ (g) ⇔ InH₂ (g), the Kp is 1.48 at 973 K.

The partial pressures measured in the reaction vessel is Partial pressure of In is 0.0540 atm, partial pressure of H₂ is 0.0250 atm, and the partial pressure of InH₂ is 0.0780 atm. By using the table given in the attachment below, the value of PInH₂ is (0.078-x), PIn is (0.054 + x), and the value of PH2 is (0.025 + x).

Kp = PInH₂/PIn × PH₂ = (0.078 - x) / (0.054 +x) (0.025 + x)

1.48 = (0.078 - x) / (0.054 +x) (0.025 + x)

x = 0.06689

Now the partial pressures of In, H₂ and InH₂ will be,

PH₂ = 0.025 + x = 0.025 + 0.0668 = 0.0918 atm

PIn = 0.054 + 0.0668 = 0.1208 atm

PInH₂ = 0.078 - 0.0668 = 0.0112 atm

Now the Qp or the reaction quotient will be,

Qp = (0.078) / (0.054) (0.025) = 57.78.

Answer:

Companies know that people will be willing to spend more to get an in-demand product.

Explanation:

When a product is really in demand, many customers are willing to part with more money order to purchase the product, as a result of that, many companies may take advantage of the increasing demand for the product to hike it's price.

Hence, the increase in price may not really have a negative impact on the quantity demanded because the demand for the product is high and customers are willing to spend more money in order to purchase an in-demand product, hence the answer above.

Prices increase when demand is high because companies know that people will be willing to spend more to get in-demand products.

Prices generally increase with higher demand for goods because the higher demand creates pressure for the supply to meet up.

Manufacturing companies can either increase their production to meet up with demand at the same price or capitalize on the situation to make more money by increasing the price without increasing the supply.

Since there is a buying pressure on the product in the market already, people would still be open to buying even at higher prices.

Answer:

2.81 g of H2O.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating mass of O2 that contains 1.25×10²³ molecules O2.

This can be obtained as follow:

From Avogadro's hypothesis, we understood that 1 mole of any substance contains 6.022×10²³ molecules. This implies that 1 mole of O2 also contains 6.022×10²³ molecules.

1 mole of O2 = 16x2 = 32 g.

Thus 6.022×10²³ molecules is present in 32 g of O2,

Therefore, 1.25×10²³ molecules will be present in =

(1.25×10²³ × 32) / 6.022×10²³ = 6.64 g of O2.

Therefore, 1.25×10²³ molecules present in 6.64 g of O2.

Next, the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) —> CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Next, we shall determine the masses of CH4 and O2 that reacted and the mass of H2O produced from the balanced equation.

This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of CH4 = 12 + (4x1) = 16 g/mol.

Mass of CH4 from the balanced equation = 1 x 16 = 16 g

Molar mass of O2 = 16x2 = 32 g/mol.

Mass of O2 from the balanced equation = 2 x 32 = 64 g

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18 g/mol.

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 2 x 18 = 36 g

From the balanced equation above,

16 g of CH4 reacted with 64 g of O2 to produce 36 g if H2O.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant.

This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

16 g of CH4 reacted with 64 g of O2.

Therefore, 1.25 g of CH4 will react with = (1.25 x 64)/16 = 5 g of O2.

From the above calculations, we can see that only 5 g out of 6.64 g of O2 is needed to react completely with 1.25 g of CH4.

Therefore, CH4 is the limiting reactant.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of H2O produced from the reaction.

In this case, the limiting reactant will be used because it will give the maximum yield of H2O.

The limiting reactant is CH4 and the mass of H2O produced from the reaction can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

16 g of CH4 reacted to produce produce 36 g if H2O.

Therefore, 1.25 g of CH4 will react to produce = (1.25 x 36)/16 = 2.81 g of H2O.

Therefore, 2.81 g of H2O were obtained from the reaction.

The mass in grams of H₂O which can be formed when 1.25g CH₄ are combined with 1.25×10²³ molecules O₂ is 2.8 grams.

Stoichiometry of any reaction tells about the amount of species present before and after the completion of the reaction.

Given chemical reaction is:

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)

Moles of CH₄ will b calculate as:

n = W/M, where

W = given mass = 1.25g

M = molar mass = 16g/mol

n = 1.25/16 = 0.078 moles

Molecues of CH₄ in 0.078 moles = 0.078×6.022×10²³ = 0.46×10²³

Given molecules of O₂ = 1.25×10²³

Required molecules of CH₄ is less as compared to the molecules of O₂, so here CH₄ is the limiting reagent and formation of water is depends on it only.

From the stoichiometry of the reaction it is clear that:

1 mole of CH₄ = will produce 2 moles of H₂O

0.078 moles of CH₄ = will produce 2×0.078=0.156 moles of H₂O

Mass of H₂O will be calculated by using its moles as:

W = (0.156)(18) = 2.8g

Hence required mass of H₂O is 2.8g.

Explanation:

pKa of acid = -log Ka

                  = 4.74

pKb of base = -log Kb

                      = 4.74

pKa of acid = pKb of base

salt pH formula   : pH = 7 + 1/2 [pKa -pKb ]

here pKa = pKb

so pH = 7

the salt it is CH3COONH4 exactly neutral solution .

If a salt is formed by combining NH₃ (Kb=1.8×10⁻⁵) and CH₃COOH (Ka=1.8×10⁻⁵), an aqueous solution of this salt would be neutral.

pH of any solution tells about the acidity or basicity or neutral nature of the solution.

pH of any solution is directly proportional to the acid dissociation constant value (Ka) and base dissociation constant (Kb). In the question it is given that,

Value of Kb for NH₃ = 1.8×10⁻⁵

Value of Ka for CH₃COOH =  1.8×10⁻⁵

Ka & Kb values for the base and acid is same means it dissociates with same extent. So the aqueous solution of this acid and base is a neutral in nature as they have same number of acid and base ions in it.

d) a solution that is 0.025M in HCOOH and 0.025M in HCOONa

Explanation:

The reaction of a weak acid (HOOH) with NaOH is as follows:

HCOOH + NaOH → HCOONa + H₂O

Based on the reaction, 1 mole of the acid reacts with 1 mole of the base (Ratio 1:1).

The initial moles of both species are:

HCOOH: 0.050L × (0.1mol / L) = 0.0050 moles of HCOOH

NaOH: 0.050L × (0.05 mol / L) = 0.0025 moles NaOH

After the reaction, all NaOH reacts with HCOOH producing HCOONa (Because moles of NaOH < moles HCOOH).

Final moles:

HCOOH: 0.0050 moles - 0.0025 moles (After reaction) = 0.0025 moles

HCOONa: Moles HCOONa = Initial Moles NaOH: 0.0025 moles

As volume of the mixture is 100mL (50 from the acid + 50 from NaOH), molarity of both HCOOH and HCOONa is:

0.0025 moles / 0.100L = 0.025M of both HCOOH and HCOONa

Since 1604 J of heat = 48.9 g of hexane

Molar mass of hexane = 86 g/mol = 1 mole

then;

1604 J = 48.9 g

x = 86 g

x = 1604 * 86 / 48.9

x = 4205.4 J

Hence, 4205.4 J of heat will be added to 1 mole or 86 g of hexane to raise the temperature by 14.5 C.

In other words,

heat = molar heat capacity * temperature change

molar heat capacity = heat/ temperature change

Molar heat capacity = 4205.4 J / 14.5 C

Molar heat capacity = 290.027 J/C

The molar heat capacity of hexane is 290.027 J/ C
