(a) One form of the Clausius-Clapeyron equation is

ln(P₂/P₁) = (ΔHv/R) * (1/T₁ - 1/T₂); where in this case:

  • P₁ = 1.3 kPa
  • P₂ = 5.3 kPa
  • T₁ = 85.8°C = 358.96 K
  • T₂ = 119.3°C = 392.46 K

Solving for ΔHv:

  • ΔHv = R * ln(P₂/P₁) / (1/T₁ - 1/T₂)
  • ΔHv = 8.31 J/molK * ln(5.3/1.3) / (1/358.96 - 1/392.46)
  • ΔHv = 49111.12 J/molK

(b) <em>Normal boiling point means</em> that P = 1 atm = 101.325 kPa. We use the same formula, using the same values for P₁ and T₁, and replacing P₂ with atmosferic pressure, <u>solving for T₂</u>:

  • ln(P₂/P₁) = (ΔHv/R) * (1/T₁ - 1/T₂)
  • 1/T₂ = 1/T₁ - [ ln(P₂/P₁) / (ΔHv/R) ]
  • 1/T₂ = 1/358.96 K - [ ln(101.325/1.3) / (49111.12/8.31) ]
  • 1/T₂ = 2.049 * 10⁻³ K⁻¹
  • T₂ = 488.1 K = 214.94 °C

(c)<em> The enthalpy of vaporization</em> was calculated in part (a), and it does not vary depending on temperature, meaning <u>that at the boiling point the enthalpy of vaporization ΔHv is still 49111.12 J/molK</u>.

Hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, is common in many households and is used as a bleaching agent. It usually comes in a dark, opaque bottl
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Hydrogen peroxide should be stored in

1) a cool environment

2) with amber bottles away from sunlight

3) with little drops of sodium phosphate

Explanation:

It has been confirmed that heat and light aids in the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide according to the equation; 2H2O2→2 H2O + O2.

This means that hydrogen peroxide must be stored in a cool place. This will reduce its rate of decomposition. Secondly, it should be stored in amber bottles away from light since light also aids in its decomposition.

Thirdly, drops of sodium phosphate may be added to prevent its catalytic decomposition during storage.

Assuming ideal behavior, how many moles of argon would you need to fill a 14.0×12.0×10.0 ft room? assume atmospheric pressure of
Blababa [14]

We use the formula:

PV = nRT

First let us get the volume V:

volume = 14 ft * 12 ft * 10 ft = 1,680 ft^3

Convert this to m^3:

volume = 1680 ft^3 * (1 m / 3.28 ft)^3 = 47.61 m^3

 

n = PV / RT

n = (1 atm) (47.61 m^3) / (293.15 K * 8.21x10^-5 m3 atm / mol K)

<span>n = 1,978.13 mol</span>

Rashid [163]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.

 <span>3O2(g) <--> 2O3(g); 

Keq = 1 = [O3]^2/[O2]^3 

So [O2]^3 = [O3]^2 

Thus A) is correct</span>
