Answer:

Calcium phosphorous

Explanation:

First, this compound is a mixture of the following elements:

Ca: Calcium

P: Phosphor

Now, both of these elements are united as a binary compound, the metal and a non metal. When we have a binary compound with a metal and non metal, (When the non metal is not hydrogen or oxygen) this usually becomes a salt. A bynary salt. So a binary salt, we should name like this

In this, we should name first the metal and then the non metal with the sufije ous. In this case:

Calcium phosphorous.

Then the name of this salt is that.

It takes 839./kJmol to break a carbon-carbon triple bond. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-carbon tr

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-carbon triple bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon is 143 nm.

Explanation:

It takes 839 kJ/mol to break a carbon-carbon triple bond.

Energy required to break 1 mole of carbon-carbon triple bond = E = 839 kJ

E = 839 kJ/mol = 839,000 J/mol

Energy required to break 1 carbon-carbon triple bond = E'

$E'=\frac{ 839,000 J/mol}{N_A}=\frac{839,000 J}{6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}}=1.393\times 10^{-18} J$

The energy require to single carbon-carbon triple bond will corresponds to wavelength which is required to break the bond.

$E'=\frac{hc}{\lambda }$ (Using planks equation)

$\lambda =\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34} Js\times 3\times 10^8 m/s}{1.393\times 10^{-18} J}$

$\lambda =1.427\times 10^{-7} m =142.7 nm = 143 nm$

$(1 m = 10^9 nm)$

The maximum wavelength of light for which a carbon-carbon triple bond could be broken by absorbing a single photon is 143 nm.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 4.64 x 10 ¹⁵ molecules

b) 9.28 x 10 ¹⁵ atoms of O2

Explanation:

MW C7H14O2 = 84 + 14 + 32 = 130 g

a) 130 g of C7H14O2 ---------------- 1 mol of C7H14O2

1 x 10 ⁻⁶ g --------------- x

x = 7.7 x 10 ⁻⁹ mol

1 mol of C7H14O2 -------------- 6 .023 x 10 ²³ molecules

7.7 x 10⁻⁹ mol -------------- x

x = 4.64 x 10¹⁵ molecules

b) 130 g of C7H14O2 ---------------- 1 mol of C7H14O2

1 x 10⁻⁶ C7H14O2 ----------------- x

x = 7.7 x 10 ⁻⁹ mol of C7H14O2

1 mol of C7H14O2 --------------- 2 mol of O2

7.7 x 10 ⁻⁹ ---------------- x

x = 1.54 x 10⁻⁸ mol of O2

1 mol of O2 ----------------- 6.023 x 10 ²³ atoms

1.54 x 10 ⁻⁸ ---------------- x

x = 9.28 x 10 ¹⁵ atoms of O2

alexandr402 [8]

The correct answer is resource partitioning.

The concept of resource partitioning is applicable in the branch of ecology. It signifies towards the procedure by which natural selection mediates competing species into distinct patterns of different niches or resource utilization.

When the species differentiate a niche to prevent competition for food resources, it is known as resource partitioning. At certain times, the competition is among the species, known as interspecific competition, and at sometimes it is among the individuals of the similar species, that is, intraspecific competition.

Calculate the entropy change for a process in which 3.00 moles of liquid water at 08c is mixed with 1.00 mole of water at 100.8c

kupik [55]

The question provides the data in an incorrect way, but what the question is asking is for the entropy change when combining 3 moles of water at 0 °C (273.15 K) with 1 mole of water at 100 °C (373.15 K). We are told the molar heat capacity is 75.3 J/Kmol. We will be using the following formula to calculate the entropy change of each portion of water:

ΔS = nCln(T₂/T₁)

n = number of moles
C = molar heat capacity
T₂ = final temperature
T₁ = initial temperature

We can first find the equilibrium temperature of the mixture which will be the value of T₂ in each case:

[(3 moles)(273.15 K) + (1 mole)(373.15 K)]/(4 moles) = 298.15 K

Now we can find the change in entropy for the 3 moles of water heating up to 298.15 K and the 1 mole of water cooling down to 298.15 K:

ΔS = (3 moles)(75.3 J/Kmol)ln(298.15/273.15)
ΔS = 19.8 J/K

ΔS = (1 mole)(75.3 J/Kmol)ln(298.15/373.15)
ΔS = -16.9 J/K

Now we combine the entropy change of each portion of water to get the total entropy change for the system:

ΔS = 19.8 J/K + (-16.9 J/K)
ΔS = 2.9 J/K

The entropy change for combining the two temperatures of water is 2.9 J/K.
