Answer: A

Explanation:

Considering the order of filling electrons into orbitals, movement from a higher to a lower energy level results in the emission of a photon with energy equal to the energy difference between the two energy levels. However, the energies of different orbitals are close together for high values of n (principal quantum number). Their relative energies may change significantly when they form ions. This implies that energy levels are better separated and have high differences in energy for low values of n. Hence the answer. This means that photons transiting between these Lowe n levels will posses higher photon energy due to larger energy difference between levels.

During a lab experiment performed at STP conditions, you prepare HCl by reacting 100. ml of Cl2 gas with an excess of H2 gas.

Brrunno [24]

Answer: 19.4 mL Ba(OH)2

Explanation:

H2(g) + Cl2(g) --> 2HCl(aq) (make sure this equation is balanced first)

At STP, 1 mol gas = 22.4 L gas. Use this conversion factor to convert the 100. mL of Cl2 to moles.

0.100 L Cl2 • (1 mol / 22.4 L) = 0.00446 mol Cl2

Use the mole ratio of 2 mol HCl for every 1 mol Cl2 to find moles of HCl produced.

0.00446 mol Cl2 • (2 mol HCl / 1 mol Cl2) = 0.00892 mol HCl

HCl is a strong acid and Ba(OH)2 is a strong base so both will completely ionize to release H+ and OH- respectively. You need 0.00892 mol OH- to neutralize all of the HCl. Note that one mole of Ba(OH)2 contains 2 moles of OH-.

0.00892 mol OH- • (1 mol Ba(OH)2 / 2 mol OH-) • (1 L Ba(OH)2 / 0.230 M Ba(OH)2) = 0.0194 L = 19.4 mL Ba(OH)2

What is water's density at 93 ∘C? Assume a constant coefficient of volume expansion. Express your answer with the appropriate un

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

982.5 kg/m³

Explanation:

When the temperature of a fluid increases, it dilates, and because of the variation of the volume, it's density will vary too. The density can be calculated by the expression:

ρ₁ = ρ₀/(1 + β*(t₁ - t₀))

Where ρ₁ is the final density, ρ₀ the initial density, β is the constant coefficient of volume expansion, t₁ the final temperature, and t₀ the initial temperature.

At t₀ = 4°C, the water desity is ρ₀ = 1,000 kg/m³. The value of the constant for water is β = 0.0002 m³/m³ °C, so, for t₁ = 93°C

ρ₁ = 1,000/(1 + 0.0002*(93 - 4))

ρ₁ = 1,000/(1+ 0.0178)

ρ₁ = 982.5 kg/m³

Some building materials contain small capsules filled with paraffin wax to improve the insulating properties of the materials. T

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

(a)

From surrounding to wax

(b)

Q = 2.62 KJ

(c)

Density of a substance is defined as the no. of particles of the substance, that occur in a unit volume. So, when the substance melts, the inter-molecular attractive forces and bonds between molecules or atoms are weakened. This, increases the distance between the molecules or atoms. Hence, the no. of particles in a unit volume is decreased. As, a result of this, the density of the substance also decreases.

Explanation:

(a)

During the melting process, the solid material or substance requires energy, in order to break the bonds between its molecules or atoms.

Therefore, while the wax is melting, the net flow of thermal energy is from surrounding to the wax.

(b)

The amount of energy required to melt solid paraffin wax is given by the formula:

Q = nC

where,

Q = amount of energy

C = Molar Heat of Fusion = 48.78 KJ/mol

n = No. of Moles = Mass in gram/Molar Mass = (15.2 g)/(282.62 g/mol)

n = 0.0538 mol

Therefore,

Q = (0.0538 mol)(48.78 KJ/mol)

Q = 2.62 KJ

(c)

If you have 2.41 × 1024 atoms of copper, how many moles of copper do you have? If you have 2.41 atoms of copper, how many moles

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

4.00 moles

Explanation:

Avogadro´s number is 6.022 x 10²³ molecules, atoms, particles, etc.

Here we are talking of atoms of copper, so 1 mol of copper is equal to 6.022 x 10²³ atoms, and we only need to setup the proportion to find the number of mol in 2.41 x 10²⁴ atoms. ( Think of it like a dozen, avogadro´s is 6.022 x 10²³ )

( 1 mol copper/ 6.022 x 10²³ atoms of copper ) x 2.41 x 10²⁴ atoms

= 4.00 moles
