List and discuss two major sources of errors in numerical methods

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are three major sources of errors in numerical method, namely human error, truncation error and round off error, but here we have to discuss only two sources-

Human error: This type of error occurs when the experiment is being performed but student isn't attentive during the experiment, or noted down the wrong observation, this error is very difficult to detect.There are rules for significant figures and rounding off, but if we round off the values incorrectly it will lead to error in final answer.

Why is a solid recrystallized with the minimum of hot solvent?

Answers

Answer:

Recrystallization refers to the method used for purifying chemical compounds. In this method, the chemical compound along with the impurities is dissolved in an appropriate hot solvent, to separate the chemical compound and the impurity.

The pure chemical compound that separates after the recrystallization process exists in the form of crystals.

Generally, the impure chemical compound is fully dissolved in the minimum amount of the solvent, thus forming a saturated solution. This is because if large amount of solvent is used, then a large amount of the chemical compound will remain dissolved in the solvent, even after cooling.

Therefore, all of the chemical compound will not get recrystallized.

B. In dissolving 1.2 g of unknown solute in 50 g of benzene, a solution with a boiling point of 80.36ºC is obtained, which is the molar mass of the solute (assume that i = 1) (show calculations)

Answers

Answer:

A)Boiling point constant of benzene = 2.63°C/m

B) 242.77 g/mol is the molar mass of the solute.

Explanation:

[tex]\Delta T_b=T_b-T[/tex]

[tex]\Delta T_b=K_b\times m[/tex]

[tex]Delta T_b=iK_b\times \frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent in Kg}}[/tex]

where,

[tex]\Delta T_f[/tex] =Elevation in boiling point

[tex]K_b[/tex] = boiling point constant od solvent= 3.63 °C/m

1 - van't Hoff factor

m = molality

A) Mas of solvent = 500 g = 0.500 kg

T = 80.1°C ,[tex]T_b[/tex] =82.73°C

[tex]\Delta T_b=T_b-T[/tex]

[tex]\Delta T_b[/tex]= 82.73°C - 80.1°C = 2.63°C

[tex]2.63^oC=K_b\times \frac{36 g}{72 g/mol\times 0.500 kg}[/tex]

[tex]K_b=\frac{2.63^oC\times 72 g/mol\times 0.500 kg}{36 g}=2.63 ^oC/m[/tex]

Boiling point constant of benzene = 2.63°C/m

B) Mass of solute = 1.2 g

Molar mas of solute = M

Mass of solvent = 50 g= 0.050 kg

i = 1

T = 80.1°C ,[tex]T_b[/tex] =80.36°C

[tex]\Delta T_b=T_b-T[/tex]=80.36°C -  80.1°C = 0.26°C

[tex]0.26^oC=1\times K_b\times \frac{1.2 g}{M\times 0.050 kg}[/tex]

[tex]M=1\times 2.63^oC/m\times \frac{1.2 g}{0.26^oC\times 0.050 kg}[/tex]

M = 242.77 g/mol

242.77 g/mol is the molar mass of the solute.

Final answer:

The boiling point constant (Kb) of benzene was found to be 2.63°C/m using the data from part A. Using this constant and the boiling point elevation data in part B, the molar mass of the unknown solute was calculated to be 240 g/mol.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is Chemistry, focusing specifically on the boiling point elevation of solutions and the calculation of molar mass from boiling point data. The problem pertains to colligative properties of solutions, which are properties that depend on the number of particles in a solution but not their identity.

Part A: Calculating Boiling Point Elevation

To find the boiling point constant (Kb) of benzene, we use the formula for boiling point elevation, ΔTb = Kb × m, where ΔTb is the change in boiling point and m is the molality of the solution. Given that the boiling point of benzene increases from 80.1°C to 82.73°C, the elevation in boiling point is 2.63°C. Molality (m) is calculated by the number of moles of pentane divided by the mass of benzene in kilograms. The molar mass of pentane (C5H12) is 72.15 g/mol, and so 36 g corresponds to 0.5 moles. The mass of benzene is 500 g, which is 0.5 kg. Thus, m = 0.5 moles / 0.5 kg = 1 mol/kg. Using these values, we can calculate Kb: 2.63°C = Kb × 1 mol/kg, so Kb = 2.63°C/m.

Part B: Determining Molar Mass of an Unknown Solute

For part B, to find the molar mass of the solute, we first calculate the change in boiling point of benzene, which is 80.36°C - 80.1°C = 0.26°C. With the boiling point constant of benzene from Part A (Kb = 2.63°C/m), and assuming i (the van 't Hoff factor) is 1 for a non-electrolyte, we establish the molality of the solution as m = ΔTb / Kb = 0.26°C / 2.63°C/m = 0.1 mol/kg. Knowing the molality and the mass of solvent (benzene), we can now calculate the molar mass (M) of the unknown solute using the formula M = mass of solute / (molality × mass of solvent in kg). With the mass of solute as 1.2 g and the mass of solvent as 0.05 kg, M = 1.2 g / (0.1 mol/kg × 0.05 kg)= 240 g/mol.

The reaction described by the equation CH 3 Cl + NaOH → CH 3 OH + NaCl follows the second-order rate law, rate = k [ CH 3 Cl ] [ NaOH ] .

The reaction rate decreases because there’s a smaller concentration of reactives.

What volume (in microlitres) of a 200M stock solution of a primer (molecular weight = 7.3 kDa) would you need to include in a 100ul PCR reaction to achieve a final concentration of primer of 300nM?

Answers

Answer:

150 × 10⁻⁹ μL

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Molarilty of the stock solution, M₁ = 200 M

Final Volume of the solution, V₂ = 100 μL = 100 × 10⁻⁶ L

Final concentration, M₂ = 300 nM = 300 × 10⁻⁹ M

Now,

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

where,

V₁ is volume of the stock solution

Thus,

200 × V₁ = 100 × 10⁻⁶ × 300 × 10⁻⁹

or

V₁ = 150 × 10⁻⁹ μL

The two methods in the lab for measuring the volume of a geometric solid object are weighing it on the balance and measuring it with a ruler measuring it with a ruler and then noting its volume in water using final volume minus initial volume in the graduated cylinder measuring it with a ruler and then again with a different ruler noting its volume in water using final volume minus initial volume in the graduated cylinder and then weighing it.

Answers

Answer:

Measuring with a ruler and using final volume minus initial volume

Explanation:

You can measure the volume of a geometric object by measuring its sides with a ruler and calculating the volume according to the corresponding formula for each object. For example, for a rectangular prism it would be

[tex]volume=length*width*height[/tex]

You can also measure the volume of an object by measuring how much water it displaces. To do this you have to fill a measuring cylinder with enough water for the object to be completely submerged and take note of the volume. Then, add the object and note again the volume of the water+object. The difference between both is the volume of the object.

[tex]Volume of the object= volume of water and object - volume of water[/tex]

The advantage of the second method is that it can be used for objects with irregular shapes as long as they do not float.

Answers

Answer: The volume of 2.0 M solution of glucose required is 11.3 mL

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of concentrated solution, we use the equation:

[tex]M_1V_1=M_2V_2[/tex]

where,

[tex]M_1\text{ and }V_1[/tex] are the molarity and volume of the concentrated solution

[tex]M_2\text{ and }V_2[/tex] are the molarity and volume of diluted solution

We are given:

Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL

[tex]M_1=2.0M\\V_1=?mL\\M_2=0.15M\\V_2=0.15L=150mL[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]2.0\times V_1=0.15\times 150\\\\V_1=11.3mL[/tex]

[tex]\Delta T_{f}=K_{f}.m[/tex], where [tex]\Delta T_{f}[/tex] is depression in freezing point and m is molality of solution

Molality of solution (m) = (moles of solute/mass of solvent in kg)

In an x-ray tube with 70kV, what is the velocity of the electrons upon reaching the anode? And what is the shortest wavelength of the x-rays emitted from this tube?

Answers

Answer:

v=3.92*10¹⁷ m/s, and l=2.93*10⁻³⁰m

Explanation:

The velocity of the electrons in the x-ray tube is related to the mass of electrons and the energy applied, the equation is E=0.5*m*v², where E is the energy in kV, m is the mass of the electrons (9.11x10-31kg), and v the velocity. Substituting, 70000 = 0.5*(9.11x10-31kg)*v², and rearranging the terms, sqrt((70000)/(0.5)(9.11x10-31)) = v = 3.92*10¹⁷ m/s. Then the energy is related to the constant h (6.62607015×10−34 Js), the speed of light 299792458 m/s, and "l" that is the wavelength. So the equation is l=(h*c)/E, and l = 2.93*10⁻³⁰m.

How many grams of sodium fluoride should be added to 300. mL of 0.0310 M of hydrofluoric acid to produce a buffer solution with a pH of 2.60?

Answers

Answer : The mass of sodium fluoride added should be 0.105 grams.

Explanation : Given,

The dissociation constant for HF = [tex]K_a=6.8\times 10^{-4}[/tex]

Concentration of HF (weak acid)= 0.0310 M

First we have to calculate the value of [tex]pK_a[/tex].

The expression used for the calculation of [tex]pK_a[/tex] is,

[tex]pK_a=-\log (K_a)[/tex]

Now put the value of [tex]K_a[/tex] in this expression, we get:

[tex]pK_a=-\log (6.8\times 10^{-4})[/tex]

[tex]pK_a=4-\log (6.8)[/tex]

[tex]pK_a=3.17[/tex]

Now we have to calculate the concentration of NaF.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

[tex]pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}[/tex]

[tex]pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[NaF]}{[HF]}[/tex]

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

[tex]2.60=3.17+\log (\frac{[NaF]}{0.0310})[/tex]

[tex][NaF]=0.00834M[/tex]

Now we have to calculate the moles of NaF.

[tex]\text{Moles of NaF}=\text{Concentration of NaF}\times \text{Volume of solution}=0.00834M\times 0.300L=0.0025mole[/tex]

Now we have to calculate the mass of NaF.

[tex]\text{Mass of }NaF=\text{Moles of }NaF\times \text{Molar mass of }NaF=0.0025mole\times 42g/mole=0.105g[/tex]

Therefore, the mass of sodium fluoride added should be 0.105 grams.

(c) What is the mole fraction of chlorobenzene? (b) What is the chlorobenzene concentration in PPM?

Answers

Answer:

Part 1

(a) 0.0113

(b) 11300 ppm

(c) 1.82 *10⁻³

(d) 0.100 M

(e) 0.101 m

Part 2

(a) 9.45 *10⁻³

(b) mole fraction = 2.45 *10⁻³

(c) 11.3 ppm

Explanation:

Chlorobenzene formula is C₆H₅Cl

Part 1: We are given a concentration of chlorobenzene in water of 100 mol/m³, and a density of the solution of 1.00 g/cm³.

(a) weight fraction C₆H₅Cl = mass C₆H₅Cl / mass solution

We know there are 100 moles of C₆H₅Cl per m³ of solution.

To get the mass of C₆H₅Cl we'll convert the moles to mass by using the molar mass:

Molar mass C₆H₅Cl = 6*12.011 + 5*1.00794 + 35.4527 = 112.558 g/mol

mass C₆H₅Cl = moles C₆H₅Cl * molar mass C₆H₅Cl

mass C₆H₅Cl = 100 moles * 112.558 g/mol = 11255.8 g

11255.8 g of C₆H₅Cl are in 1 m³ of solution.

Next we'll convert 1 m³ of solution to mass by using the density

mass solution = volume solution * density of solution

[tex]mass solution = 1m^{3} *\frac{(100cm)^{3} }{ 1m^{3}} * \frac{1.00 g}{cm^{3} } = 1.00 *10^{6} g[/tex]

weight fraction C₆H₅Cl = 11256 g / 1.00 *10⁶ g = 0.0113

(b) ppm stands for "parts per million" and it is usually expressed as mg per Liter of solution

We already calculated that there are 11256 g or more exactly 11300 g of C₆H₅Cl in 1 m³ of solution, so lets convert to mg/L:

[tex]\frac{11300 g}{1 m^{3} } * \frac{1000 mg}{1 g} * \frac{1 m^{3} }{1000 L} = 11300 mg/L[/tex]

So the solution is 11300 ppm

(c)  mole fraction = moles of C₆H₅Cl / total moles in solution

total moles = moles C₆H₅Cl + moles water

moles water = mass water / molar mass water

mass water = mass solution - mass C₆H₅Cl

moles of C₆H₅Cl = 100 moles

mass water = 1.00 *10⁶ g of solution - 11256 g = 988744 g of water

moles water = 988744 g / 18.0153 g/mol = 54884 moles water

total moles = 100 + 54884 = 54984 moles

mole fraction = 100 moles of C₆H₅Cl / 54984 moles = 1.82 *10⁻³

(d) Molarity = moles C₆H₅Cl / Liters of solution

We know the solution is 100 mol / m³ so we just have to convert the m³ to L:

[tex]\frac{100 mol}{m^{3} } * \frac{1 m^{3}}{1000 L} = 0.100 mol / L = 0.100 M[/tex]

(e) Molality = moles C₆H₅Cl / kg water

We know that there are 100 moles per 988744 g of water, so we need to convert the grams of water to kilograms.

[tex]Molality = \frac{100 moles}{988744 g} *\frac{1000 g}{1 kg} = 0.101 m[/tex]

____________________________________

Part 2: Concentration of C₆H₅Cl in air is 0.100 mol/m³, at 25 °C and 1 atm.

Molar mass air = 28.84 g/mol

(a) weight fraction C₆H₅Cl = mass C₆H₅Cl / total mass

mass C₆H₅Cl = 0.100 mol * 112.558 g/mol = 11.26 g

total mass = mass C₆H₅Cl + mass air

mass air = moles air * molar mass air

moles air = total moles - moles C₆H₅Cl

We can calculate the total moles by using the ideal gas law:

P V = n R T

where P is pressure in atm, V is volume in L, n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant and T is temperature in Kelvin.

n = P V / R T

P = 1 atm

V = 1 m³ = 1000 L

R = 0.08206 L atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

T = 25 + 273.15 = 298 K

n = (1 atm * 1000 L) / (0.08206 L atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹ * 298 K) = 40.89 moles

moles air = 40.89 - 0.100 = 40.79 moles air

mass air = 40.79 mol * 28.84 g/mol = 1176.4 g

total mass = 1176.4 g + 11.26 g = 1188 g

weight fraction = 11.26 g / 1188 g = 9.45 *10⁻³

(b) mole fraction = moles C₆H₅Cl / total moles

mole fraction = 0.100 / 40.89 = 2.45 *10⁻³

(c) ppm = mg C₆H₅Cl / Liters

We already know there are 11.26 g C₆H₅Cl in 1 m³, which is the same as 1000 L, so:

[tex]\frac{11.26 g}{1000 L} *\frac{1000 mg}{1 g} = 11.3 mg/L[/tex]

The concentration is 11.3 ppm

Final answer:

a) The weight fraction of chlorobenzene is 11.26. b) The chlorobenzene concentration in ppm is 100,000 ppm. c) The mole fraction of chlorobenzene is 0.1. d) The molarity of chlorobenzene is 0.1 M. e) The molality of chlorobenzene is 0.1 m.

Explanation:

a) The weight fraction of chlorobenzene can be calculated by dividing the mass of chlorobenzene by the total mass of the solution. Since the density of the solution is 1.00 g/cm3, the mass of chlorobenzene can be calculated as 100 mol/m3 * 112.6 g/mol / 1000 cm3 = 11.26 g/cm3. Therefore, the weight fraction of chlorobenzene is 11.26 g/cm3 / (1.00 g/cm3) = 11.26.

b) To convert the concentration of chlorobenzene from mol/m3 to ppm (parts per million), we need to multiply by 10^6. Therefore, the chlorobenzene concentration in ppm is 100 mol/m3 * 10^6 ppm/mol = 100,000 ppm.

c) The mole fraction of chlorobenzene can be calculated by dividing the number of moles of chlorobenzene by the total number of moles in the solution. Since the concentration of chlorobenzene is given in mol/m3, the number of moles of chlorobenzene can be calculated as 100 mol/m3 * (1 L / 1000 cm3) = 0.1 mol. The total number of moles in the solution is 1 L * (1 mol/m3) = 1 mol. Therefore, the mole fraction of chlorobenzene is 0.1 mol / 1 mol = 0.1.

d) The molarity of chlorobenzene can be calculated by dividing the number of moles of chlorobenzene by the volume of the solution in liters. Since the concentration of chlorobenzene is given in mol/m3, the number of moles of chlorobenzene can be calculated as 100 mol/m3 * (1 L / 1000 cm3) = 0.1 mol. The volume of the solution is 1 L. Therefore, the molarity of chlorobenzene is 0.1 mol / 1 L = 0.1 M.

e) The molality of chlorobenzene can be calculated by dividing the number of moles of chlorobenzene by the mass of the solvent in kilograms. Since the density of the solution is 1.00 g/cm3, the mass of the solvent (water) can be calculated as 1 L * (1000 cm3 / 1 L) * (1.00 g/cm3) = 1000 g. The number of moles of chlorobenzene can be calculated as 100 mol/m3 * (1 L / 1000 cm3) = 0.1 mol. Therefore, the molality of chlorobenzene is 0.1 mol / 1 kg = 0.1 m.

These are gases. They are typically known for their randomness and no fixed arrangement of their atoms.

Gases generally assume the volumes of the containers they fill. They spread easily and readily to fill the volume where they occupy. Also, gases are readily compressible as they lack intermolecular attraction between their molecules.

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a solid substance, the atoms are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. Hence, the atoms are not able t move freely but they are able to vibrate at their mean position.

As a result, solids have a definite shape and volume and also, they are incompressible in nature.

In liquids, the atoms are held together by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. Therefore, atoms of a liquid are able to slide past each other. So, they are partially compressible in nature.

Also, liquids acquire the shape of container in which they are placed.

But in gases, the molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces of attraction. Hence, atoms are able to move far away from each other as they have high kinetic energy.

Gases are highly compressible in nature.

Therefore, in the given situation as substance took different shapes in each container.

Thus, we can conclude that it is partially compressible could be another characteristic of the substance.

How many total electrons does the P^3- ion have? O a. 3 O b. 31 O c.1 O d. 15 O e. 18

Answers

Answer:

e. 18

Explanation:

A neutral P atom has an atomic number of 15, which means there are 15 protons in the atom. In order to be neutral, the P atom must also have 15 electrons.

The P³⁻ anion has 3 electrons more than the neutral P atom since it has a charge of -3.

Thus, the total number of electrons are 15 + 3 = 18 electrons.

Be sure to answer all parts. Calculate the molality, molarity, and mole fraction of FeCl3 in a 24.0 mass % aqueous solution (d = 1.280 g/mL).

Answers

Answer:

m= 1.84 m

M= 1.79 M

mole fraction (X) =

Xsolute= 0.032

Xsolvent = 0.967

Explanation:

1. Find the grams of FeCl3 in the solution: when we have a mass % we assume that there is 100 g of solution so 24% means 24 g of FeCl3 in the solution. The rest 76 g are water.

2. For molality we have the formula m= moles of solute / Kg solvent

so first we pass the grams of FeCl3 to moles of FeCl3:

24 g of FeCl3x(1 mol FeCl3/162.2 g FeCl3) = 0.14 moles FeCl3

If we had 76 g of water we convert it to Kg:

76 g water x(1 Kg of water/1000 g of water) = 0.076 Kg of water

now we divide m = 0.14 moles FeCl3/0.076 Kg of water

m= 1.84 m

3. For molarity we have the formula M= moles of solute /L of solution

the moles we already have 0.14 moles FeCl3

the (L) of solution we need to use the density of the solution to find the volume value. For this purpose we have: 100 g of solution and the density d= 1.280 g/mL

The density formula is d = (m) mass/(V) volume if we clear the unknown value that is the volume we have that (V) volume = m/d

so V = 100 g / 1.280 g/mL = 78.12 mL = 0.078 L

We replace the values in the M formula

M= 0.14 moles of FeCl3/0.078 L

M= 1.79 M

3. Finally the mole fraction (x)  has the formula

X(solute) = moles of solute /moles of solution

X(solvent) moles of solvent /moles of solution

X(solute) + X(solvent) = 1

we need to find the moles of the solvent and we add the moles of the solute like this we have the moles of the solution:

76 g of water x(1 mol of water /18 g of water) = 4.2 moles of water

moles of solution = 0.14 moles of FeCl3 + 4.2 moles of water = 4.34 moles of solution

X(solute) = 0.14 moles of FeCl3/4.34 moles of solution = 0.032

1 - X(solute) = 1 - 0.032 = 0.967

Copper sulfate is a blue solid that is used to control algae growth. Solutions of copper sulfate that come in contact with the surface of galvanized (zinc-plated) steel pails undergo the following reaction that forms copper metal on the zinc surface. How many grams of zinc would react with 454 g (1 lb) of copper sulfate (160 g/mol)?

Answers

Answer:

185.5156 g

Explanation:

The reaction of copper sulfate with zinc is shown below as:

[tex]CuSO_4+Zn\rightarrow ZnSO_4+Cu[/tex]

Given that :

Amount of copper sulfate = 454 g

Molar mass of copper sulfate = 160 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

[tex]moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}[/tex]

Thus, moles are:

[tex]moles= \frac{454\ g}{160\ g/mol}[/tex]

[tex]moles\ of\ copper\ sulfate= 2.8375\ mol[/tex]

From the reaction,  

1 mole of copper sulfate reacts with 1 mole of zinc

Thus,

2.8375 moles of copper sulfate reacts with 2.8375 moles of zinc

Moles of Zinc that should react = 2.8375 moles

Mass of zinc= moles×Molar mass

Molar mass of zinc = 65.38 g/mol

Mass of zinc = 2.8375 ×65.38 g = 185.5156 g

Final answer:

185.595 grams of zinc would react with 454 g of copper sulfate, based on the one-to-one mole ratio between copper sulfate and zinc and the molar mass of zinc (65.38 g/mol).

Explanation:

The student is asking how many grams of zinc would react with 454 g of copper sulfate, which has a molar mass of 160 g/mol. According to the provided reaction, CuSO4 (aq) + Zn(s) → Cu(s) + ZnSO4 (aq), there is a one-to-one mole ratio between copper sulfate and zinc. Given the molar mass of copper sulfate (160 g/mol), we first find the number of moles of copper sulfate in 454 g.

Number of moles of CuSO4 = (454 g) / (160 g/mol) = 2.8375 mol

Since the mole ratio between copper sulfate and zinc is 1:1, an equal number of moles of zinc will react with the copper sulfate. We then need to find the molar mass of zinc to convert moles of zinc to grams. Zinc has a molar mass of approximately 65.38 g/mol.

Mass of zinc = Number of moles of Zn × molar mass of Zn = 2.8375 mol × 65.38 g/mol = 185.595 g

Therefore, 185.595 grams of zinc would react with 454 g of copper sulfate.

One of the significant achievements of Fahrenheit was to: O make thermometers smaller using air O make thermometers compact using alcohol O make thermometers more accurate using alcohol O make thermometers smaller using mercury

Answers

Answer:

make thermometers smaller using mercury

Explanation:

Daniel Fahrenheit invented first accurate thermometer which used mercury instead of the alcohol and the water mixtures. In laboratory, he used this invention of him to develop first temperature scale which was enough precise to become the worldwide standard.

The key to the Fahrenheit's thermometer was that the mercury is able to rise and fall within tube without sticking to sides. It was ideal substance for the reading temperatures since mercury expanded at more constant rate than the alcohol and is also able to be read the temperature at much higher and also lower temperatures.

In the reaction C zH4 + H2 - e) +4 CHo the carbon atoms are a) oxidized b) reduced c) cannot be determined

Answers

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Reduction is defined as the process in which there occurs gain of hydrogen. Whereas oxidation is defined as the process in which there occurs loss of hydrogen.

As the given reaction is as follows.

      [tex]C_{2}H_{4} + H_{2} \rightarrow C_{2}H_{6}[/tex]

Since, hydrogen is being added in this chemical reaction. It means that reduction is taking place and carbon atom is reduced.

Thus, we can conclude that in the given reaction carbon atoms are reduced.

Determine the electrical work required to produce one mole of hydrogen in the electrolysis of liquid water at 298°K and 1 atm. The chemical reaction is H2001) H2(g) + 0.502(g) Data (at 298°K and 1 atm): AH = 286 kJ for this reaction, Suzo = 70 JK, SH2 = 131 JIK, and Soz = 205 J/ºK.

Answers

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

          [tex]\Delta H[/tex] = 286 kJ = [tex]286 kJ \times \frac{1000 J}{1 kJ}[/tex]

                            = 286000 J

 [tex]S_{H_{2}O} = 70 J/^{o}K[/tex],      [tex]S_{H_{2}} = 131 J/^{o}K[/tex]

 [tex]S_{O_{2}} = 205 J/^{o}K[/tex]

Hence, formula to calculate entropy change of the reaction is as follows.

          [tex]\Delta S_{rxn} = \sum \nu_{i}S_{i}_(products) - \sum \nu_{i}S_{i}_(reactants)[/tex]

                     = [tex][(\frac{1}{2} \times S_{O_{2}}) - (1 \times S_{H_{2}})] - [1 \times S_{H_{2}O}][/tex]

                    = [tex][(\frac{1}{2} \times 205) + (1 \times 131)] - [(1 \times 70)][/tex]

                    = 163.5 J/K

Therefore, formula to calculate electric work energy required is as follows.

             [tex]\Delta G_{rxn} = \Delta H_{rxn} - T \Delta S_{rxn}[/tex]

                            = [tex]286000 J - (163.5 J/K \times 298 K)[/tex]

                            = 237.277 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that the electrical work required for given situation is 237.277 kJ.

Final answer:

To find the electrical work required for the electrolysis of water to produce 1 mole of hydrogen, calculate the Gibbs Free Energy (ΔG) for the reaction. Using the given thermodynamic data, ΔG at 298 K is 236.4 kJ, representing the minimum electrical work needed.

Explanation:

The student has asked how to determine the electrical work required to produce one mole of hydrogen in the electrolysis of liquid water at 298 K and 1 atm. The question involves understanding the thermodynamics of the reaction: H2O(l) → H2(g) + 0.5O2(g), with given data points including ΔH and standard entropies (S°) for the reactants and products. To find the electrical work required, you first calculate the ΔG (Gibbs Free Energy) of the reaction using the formula ΔG = ΔH - TΔS. Knowing ΔG allows you to determine the maximum work that can be extracted from the reaction, which, in the case of electrolysis, corresponds to the minimum work required to drive the reaction in reverse.

ΔS for the reaction can be calculated using the given entropies: ΔS = ⅛∑S°(products) - ⅛∑S°(reactants) = (131 + 0.5×205) - 70 = 166.5 J/K. Therefore, ΔG at 298 K can be calculated as ΔG = 286,000 J - (298K × 166.5 J/K) = 286,000 J - 49,617 J = 236,383 J or 236.4 kJ. This value represents the minimum electrical work required to produce one mole of hydrogen gas via electrolysis of water under the specified conditions.

Answers

Answer:

The temperature difference across the stainless steel is 18°C

Explanation:

The heat flows through the plastic layer by convection and then through the steel layer by conduction and then through the plastic layer on the other side.

The heat flux q/A can be expressed as:

[tex]q/A = h*\Delta T[/tex]

It can also be expressed as

[tex]q/A=h*(T_A-T_B) = h_1(T_A-T_1)=k/\Delta x*(T_1-T_2)=h_2(T_2-T_B)[/tex]

being Δx/k*(T1-T2) the conductive heat flux through the steel.

If we want to know the temperatur difference across the stainless steel (T1-T2) we can write:

[tex](k/\Delta x)*(T_1-T_2)=h*(T_A-T_B)\\\\(T_1-T_2)=(\Delta x/k)*h*(T_A-T_B)\\\\(T_1-T_2)=(0.04/16)*120*60=18 \, ^{\circ} C[/tex]

A sealed can with an internal pressure of 721 mmHg at
25degrees C is thrown into an incinerator operating at 755 degrees
C.What will be the pressure inside the heated can, assuming
thecontainer remains intact during incineration?

Answers

Answer:

2486 mmHg

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's Law states the pressure varies directly with temperature when volume remains constant:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Where P₁ and T₁ are initial pressure and temperature and P₂ and T₂ are final pressure and temperatue.

The problem says initial pressure is 721 mmHg, initial temperature is 25°C and final temperature is 755°C. The question is final pressure.

°C must be converted to absolute temperature (K), thus:

25°C + 273,15 = 298,15 K

755°C + 273,15 = 1028,15 K

Thus, pressure P₂ is:

(T₂·P₁) / T₁ = P₂

1028,15K · 721mmHg / 298,15 K =  2486 mmHg

Calculate the average atomic weight of Hf. Give your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Final answer:

The average atomic weight of Hafnium is calculated by multiplying the atomic weight of each isotope by its relative abundance and summing the products. The result is an average atomic weight of 178.433 amu.

Explanation:

To calculate the average atomic weight of Hafnium (Hf), we multiply the atomic weight of each isotope by its natural abundance, expressed as a fraction, and then sum the results. Here are the calculations:

(0.0016 × 173.940 amu) for 174Hf(0.0526 × 175.941 amu) for 176Hf(0.1860 × 176.943 amu) for 177Hf(0.2728 × 177.944 amu) for 178Hf(0.1362 × 178.946 amu) for 179Hf(0.3508 × 179.947 amu) for 180Hf

Adding these products together we get the average atomic weight of Hafnium:

(0.0016 × 173.940) + (0.0526 × 175.941) + (0.1860 × 176.943) + (0.2728 × 177.944) + (0.1362 × 178.946) + (0.3508 × 179.947) = 0.278304 + 9.255366 + 32.922978 + 48.523072 + 24.373172 + 63.079956 = 178.432848 amu

At what temperature are the liquid and the vapour of Bromine in equilibrium (e.g. boiling point)?

Answers

Explanation:

Boiling point is defined as the point at which liquid state and vapor state of a substance are existing in equilibrium.

Equilibrium is defined as the state in which rate of forward and rate of backward reaction are equal to each other.

For example, [tex]Br(l) \rightleftharpoons Br(g)[/tex]

So, when we boil bromine which is present in liquid state then at the boiling point its vapors will exist in equilibrium. And unless all the liquid state of bromine will not convert into vapors its temperature will not change.

Therefore, we can conclude that at boiling point the liquid and the vapur of Bromine are in equilibrium.

Many important biochemicals are organic acids, such as pyruvic acid ( p K a = 2.50 ) and lactic acid ( p K a = 3.86 ) . The conjugate bases are pyruvate and lactate, respectively. For each acid, determine which form—the acid or the conjugate base—predominates at pH 7.4. A graphic shows a check mark inscribed on a colored circle. 6

Answers

Answer:

Pyruvic acid: conjugate base

Lactic acid: conjugate base

Explanation:

The ratio of conjugate base to conjugate acid can be found using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation when the pH and pKa are known.

pH = pKa + log([A⁻]/[HA])

The equation can be rearranged to solve for the ratio:

pH - pKa = log([A⁻]/[HA])

[A⁻]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa)

Now we can calculate the ratio for the pyruvic acid:

[A⁻]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(7.4 - 2.50) = 79433

[A⁻] = 79433[HA]

There is a much higher concentration of the conjugate base.

Similarly for lactic acid:

[A⁻]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(7.4 - 3.86) = 3467

[A⁻] = 3467[HA]

For lactic acid the conjugate base also dominates at pH 7.4

Living in a land of plenty like America makes us easy prey for ingratitude. We should show some appreciation for the little everyday things, like wooden pencils, that make written communication easier.The wooden pencil first dates back to 17th century Europe. The first wooden pencils were eraserless. Imagine the anxiety of making mistakes! It was not until the American Civil War years that erasers were added to wooden pencils. Lead pencils date back to early Roman times, when Romans wrote with lead styluses. We still call them "lead" pencils, but actually, what is inside the modernday pencil is graphite. Early pencils were merely long sticks of graphite inserted into wooden sticks that had been hollowed out by hand. Pencils were not massproduced until 1662 in Nuremberg, Germany. In 1762, George Washington used a threeinch pencil to survey the Ohio Territory. In 1812, William Monroe, a cabinetmaker of Concord, Massachusetts, began to massproduce wooden pencils in America.Even the color of the pencil today is significant. In the 19th century, China was renowned for producing the best graphite in the world. Pencil makers in the U.S. wanted to convey to consumers that they only used Chinese graphite. Therefore, they painted them yellow, a color the Chinese associate with respect and royalty. This way, American manufacturers let their buyers know that they used Chinese graphite exclusively. It is amazing how such a tradition has a profound effect on something as mundane, yet important, as pencil production. Seventyfive percent of all pencils produced in America today are yellow.
