Mariana [72]2 years ago

Answer is 2.18017\times10^{-22}gms.

Explanation: To calculate the mass of 1 Xe-atom , we will require atomic mass of Xe which is 131.29amu.

This atomic mass is the mass of 1 mole of 1 Xe-atom. One mole of Xe-atom is 6.022\times10^{23} atoms of Xe. We will use this relation to convert Mass of Xe-atom into grams.

\frac{\text{mass of 1 atom}}{atom}=\frac{\text{mass of 1 mole of atom}}{6.022\times10^{23}atoms}

\text{mass of 1 atom}=\frac{\text{mass of 1 mole of atom}}{6.022\times10^{23}}

\text{mass of 1 Xe-atom}=\frac{131.29}{6.022\times10^{23}}

\text{mass of 1-Xe atom}=21.8017\times10^{-23}gms

                                               =2.18017\times10^{-22}gms

1. A gas has a pressure of 799.0 mm Hg at 50.0 degrees C. What is the temperature at standard Pressure?
larisa [96]

Answer:

A = 674.33mmHg

B = 0.385atm

Explanation:

Both question A and B requires the application of pressure law which states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature provided that volume is kept constant.

Mathematically,

P = kT, k = P / T

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2 = P3 / T3 =.......= Pn/Tn

A)

Data:

P1 = 799mmHg

T1 = 50°C = (50 + 273.15) = 323.15K

P2 = ?

T2 = 273.15K

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

Solve for P2

P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1

P2 = (799 × 273.15) / 323.15

P2 = 674.37mmHg

The final pressure is 674.37mmHg

B)

P1 = 0.470atm

T1 = 60°C = (60 + 273.15)K = 333.15K

P2 = ?

T2 = 273.15K

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

Solve for P2,

P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1

P2 = (0.470 × 273.15) / 333.15

P2 = 0.385atm

The final pressure is 0.385atm

How many moles are equal to 89.23 g of calcium oxide?
adelina 88 [10]
The molecular formula of calcium oxide - CaO
The molar mass of CaO - 40 + 16 = 56 g/mol 
Which means that 1 mol weighs 56 g
Therefore 56 g of CaO is - 1 mol
Then 89.23 g is equivalent to - 1/56 x 89.23 = 1.6 mol of CaO

Using periodic trends, place the following bonds in order of increasing ionic character. Si-P Si-Cl Si-S Using periodic trends,
mars1129 [50]

Answer: Option (5) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed by transfer of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms. Whereas a covalent bond is defined as the bond formed by sharing of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms.

When electronegativity difference is from 0.0 to 0.4 then bond formed between the two atoms is non-polar covalent in nature.

When electronegativity difference is greater than 0.4 and less than 1.7 then bond between the two atoms is a polar covalent bond.

When electronegativity difference is 1.7 or greater than the bond formed is ionic in nature.

Therefore, electronegativity difference of the given species is as follows.

Si-P = 2.1 - 1.8 = 0.3

Si-Cl = 3.0 - 1.8 = 1.2

Si-S = 2.5 - 1.8 = 0.7

Thus, we can conclude that given bonds are placed in order of increasing ionic character as follows.

                           Si-P < Si-S < Si-Cl

According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed. It is an entity that's always existing in the environment. It takes different forms of energy. Among the choices, the best answer would be letter B. Chemical energy. The chemical energy originates from the energy within the muscles that are dormant. Once used, this chemical energy is transformed into mechanical energy by the action of pushing his foot on the ground.

EastWind [94]

The correct answer is option B, that is, Animalia.  

The animals refer to the multicellular eukaryotic species, which forms the biological kingdom known as Animalia. The majority of the animals breathe oxygen, consume organic substances, and possess the tendency to move, has the tendency to reproduce, and develop from a hollow sphere of cells, the blastula at the time of embryonic development. In comparison to Kingdom Plantae, the cells in animals do not exhibit cell wall. Thus, on the basis of the characteristics, the newly discovered species must be categorized under Kingdom Animalia.
