TNT = trinitrotoluene

The molecular formula of TNT is C7H5N3O<span>6, so the decomposition equation is:

</span> 4C7H5N3O<span>6 ---> 6N2(g) + 7CO2(g) + 10H2O(g) + 21C(s)

Count the atoms to the left and to the right to verify that the equation is balanced

atom         left                  right

C              4*7 = 28          7 + 21 = 28

H              4*5 = 20          10*2 = 20

N              4*3 = 12           6*2 = 12

O              4*6 = 24           7*2 + 10 = 24

So, the equation is correctly balanced.

</span>Answer: 4C7H5N3O6 ---> 6N2(g) + 7CO2(g) + 10H2O(g) + 21C(s)

In an experiment a student mixes a 50.0 mL sample of 0.100 M AgNO₃(aq) with a 50.0 mL sample of 0.100 M NaCl(aq) at 20.0°C in a
drek231 [11]

The enthalpy change of the precipitation reaction is 84 kJ/mole

Why?

The chemical equation for the reaction is

AgNO₃(aq) + NaCl (aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO₃(aq)

To find the enthalpy change we need to apply the following equation

\Delta H =\frac{Q}{n}

To find the heat (Q):

Q=m*C*\Delta T=(100g)*(4.2 J/g*^\circ C)*(21^\circ C-20^\circ C)\\\\Q=420J

Now, to find the number of moles that react (n):

n=[AgNO_3]*v(L)=(0.1M)*(0.05L)=0.005moles

Having these two values we can plug in the first equation:

\Delta H= \frac{420J}{0.005moles}=84000J/mole=84kJ/mole

Have a nice day!

1‑propanol ( n ‑propanol) and 2‑propanol (isopropanol) form ideal solutions in all proportions. Calculate the partial pressure a
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

y_{prop} = 0.134; y_{iso} = 0.866

The partial pressure of isopropanol = 34.04 Torr; The partial pressure of propanol = 5.26 Torr

Explanation:

For each of the solutions:

mole fraction of isopropanol  (x_{iso}) = 1 - mole fraction of propanol (x_{prop}).

Given: mole fraction of propanol = 0.247. Thus, the mole fraction of isopropanol = 1 - 0.247 = 0.753.

Furthermole, the partial pressure of isopropanol = x_{iso}*vapor pressure of isopropanol = 0.753*45.2 Torr = 34.04 Torr

The partial pressure of propanol = x_{prop}*vapor pressure of propanol = 0.247*20.9 Torr = 5.16 Torr

Similarly,

In the vapor phase,

The mole fraction of propanol (y_{prop}) = \frac{P_{prop} }{P_{prop}+P_{iso}}

Where, P_{prop} is the partial pressure of propanol and P_{iso} is the partial pressure of isopropanol.

Therefore,

y_{prop} = 5.26/(34.04+5.16) = 0.134

y_{iso} = 1 - 0.134 = 0.866

At STP, fluorine is a gas and iodine is a solid. This observation can be explained by the fact that fluorine has
motikmotik
<span>The answer is 4. The molecules of each material entice each other over dispersion (London) intermolecular forces. Whether a substance is a solid, liquid, or gas hinge on the stability between the kinetic energies of the molecules and their intermolecular magnetisms. In fluorine, the electrons are firmly apprehended to the nuclei. The electrons have slight accidental to stroll to one side of the molecule, so the London dispersion powers are comparatively weak. As we go from fluorine to iodine, the electrons are far from the nuclei so the electron exhausts can more effortlessly misrepresent. The London dispersion forces developed to be increasingly stronger.</span>
