The Lewis structure for H₂CO is shown in the attached picture. The central atom is the carbon. However, I'm not sure which bond you're referring to. There can be two answers. The two C-H bonds are sp³ hybridized because it is a single bond. The C=O bond is sp² hybridized because it is a double bond.

An amount of solid barium chloride, 20.8 g, is dissolved in 100 g water in a coffee-cup calorimeter by the reaction: BaCl2 (s) 

mamaluj [8]

Answer : The enthalpy change during the reaction is -6.48 kJ/mole

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat gained by the reaction.

$q=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

where,

q = heat gained = ?

m = mass of water = 100 g

c = specific heat = $4.04J/g^oC$

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = $26.6^oC$

$T_{initial}$ = initial temperature = $25.0^oC$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=100g\times 4.04J/g^oC\times (26.6-25.0)^oC$

$q=646.4J$

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change during the reaction.

$\Delta H=-\frac{q}{n}$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat gained = 23.4 kJ

n = number of moles barium chloride = $\frac{\text{Mass of barium chloride}}{\text{Molar mass of barium chloride}}=\frac{20.8g}{208.23g/mol}=0.0998mole$

$\Delta H=-\frac{646.4J}{0.0998mole}=-6476.95J/mole=-6.48kJ/mole$

Therefore, the enthalpy change during the reaction is -6.48 kJ/mole

Which of these correctly defines the pOH of a solution? the log of the hydronium ion concentration the negative log of the hydro

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer : The correct option is, the negative log of the hydroxide ion concentration.

Explanation :

pOH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration. It is a measure of the alkalinity of the solution.

Formula used :

$pOH=-log[OH^-]$

$[OH^-]$ is the concentration of $OH^-$ ions.

When pOH is less than 7, the solution is alkaline.

When pOH is more than 7, the solution is acidic.

When pOH is equal to 7, the solution is neutral.

When adjusted for any changes in ΔHΔH and ΔSΔS with temperature, the standard free energy change ΔG∘TΔGT∘Delta G_{T}^{\circ} at

STALIN [3.7K]

The equilibrium constant is 0.0022.

Explanation:

The values given in the problem is

ΔG° = 1.22 ×10⁵ J/mol

T = 2400 K.

R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹

The Gibbs free energy should be minimum for a spontaneous reaction and equilibrium state of any reaction is spontaneous reaction. So on simplification, the thermodynamic properties of the equilibrium constant can be obtained as related to Gibbs free energy change at constant temperature.

The relation between Gibbs free energy change with equilibrium constant is ΔG° = -RT ln K

So, here K is the equilibrium constant. Now, substitute all the given values in the corresponding parameters of the above equation.

We get,

$1.22 * 10^{5} = - 8.314* 2400 * ln K$

$\\ 1.22 * 10^{5} = -19953.6 * ln K$

$ln K = \frac{-1.22*10^{5} }{19953.6} =-6.114\\\\k =e^{-6.114}=0.0022$

So, the equilibrium constant is 0.0022.

Dumbledore decides to gives a surprise demonstration. He starts with a hydrate of Na2CO3 which has a mass of 4.31 g before heati

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Na₂CO₃.2H₂O

Explanation:

For the hydrated compound, let us denote is by Na₂CO₃.xH₂O

The unknown is the value of x which is the amount of water of crystallisation.

Given values:

Starting mass of hydrate i.e Na₂CO₃.xH₂O = 4.31g

Mass after heating (Na₂CO₃) = 3.22g

Mass of the water of crystallisation = (4.31-3.22)g = 1.09g

To determine the integer x, we find the number of moles of the anhydrous Na₂CO₃ and that of the water of crystallisation:

Number of moles = $\frac{mass }{molar mass }$

Molar mass of Na₂CO₃ =[(23x2) + 12 + (16x3)] = 106gmol⁻¹

Molar mass of H₂O = [(1x2) + (16)] = 18gmol⁻¹

Number of moles of Na₂CO₃ = $\frac{3.22}{106}$ = 0.03mole

Number of moles of H₂O = $\frac{1.09}{18}$ = 0.06mole

From the obtained number of moles:

Na₂CO₃ H₂O
