Explanation:

According to the mole concept, there are $6.022 \times 10^{23}$ atoms or molecules present in 1 mole.

As, it is given that mass of ethyne is 84.3 g. Hence, calculate its number of moles as follows.

No. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

= $\frac{84.3 g}{26.04 g/mol}$

= 3.24 mol

Therefore, calculate number of ethyne molecules as follows.

$3.24 mol \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}$ atoms

= $19.51 \times 10^{23}$ atoms

Thus, we can conclude that there are $19.51 \times 10^{23}$ atoms in 84.3 grams of ethyne.

1. For which of these elements would the first ionization energy of the atom be higher than that of the diatomic molecule?

Lyrx [107]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The energy necessary to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion is known as ionization energy.

This means that smaller is the size of an atom more amount of energy has to be supplied to it in order to remove the valence electron. This is because in small atom or element there will be strong force of attraction between the nucleus and electrons.

So, high amount of energy has to be supplied to remove the valence electrons.

As electronic configuration of helium is $1s^{2}$ . So, due to completely filled valence shell it is more stable in nature.

As a result, we need to provide very high amount of energy to remove an electron from a helium atom.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options helium element would the first ionization energy of the atom be higher than that of the diatomic molecule.

Calculate the heat change in calories for melting 65 g of ice at 0 ∘c.

Genrish500 [490]

When ice melts, the physicals state changes from solid to liquid. The energy or the heat required (q) required to change a unit mass (m) of a substance from solid to liquid is known as the enthalpy or heat of fusion (ΔHf). The variables; q, m and ΔHf are related as:

q = m * ΔHf

the mass of ice m = 65 g

the heat of fusion of water at 0C = ΔHf = 334 J/g

Therefore: q = 65 g * 334 J/g = 21710 J

Now:

4.184 J = 1 cal

which implies that: 21710 J = 1 cal * 21710 J/4.184 J = 5188.8 cal

Hence the heat required is 5188.8 cal or 5.2 Kcal (approx)
