3.91 ×10²⁴ carbon atoms are in 6.5 moles of carbon. The smallest unit of matter that may be divided without producing electrically charged particles is the atom.

What is atom?

The smallest unit of matter that may be divided without producing electrically charged particles is the atom. It is also the smallest piece of substance with chemical element-like characteristics. As a result, the atom serves as the fundamental unit of chemistry. Space makes up the majority of an atom.

The rest is made up of a cloud of electrons that are negatively charged surrounding a nucleus that is positively charged made up of protons and neutrons. Compared to electrons, which are the smallest charged particles in nature, the nucleus is small and dense. Electric forces, which link radicals to the nucleus of atoms, cause them to be drawn to any positive charge.

number of atoms= 6.5 ×  6.022×10²³

          =3.91 ×10²⁴  

Therefore, 3.91 ×10²⁴ carbon atoms are in 6.5 moles of carbon.

If you have 7 moles of water, how many atoms do you have?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given 7  moles H₂O

By definition, the 'mole', in chemical process, is the mass of substance (usually in grams and includes elements or molecules) that contain 6.023 x 10²³ particles (Avogadro's Number)  of the given substance. The mole is also related (or, equal) to the following:

1 mole = 1 Avogadro's number of particles = 6.023 x 10²³ particles = 1 formula wt. = 1 molecular wt. = 1 gram formula weight

So, if given 7 moles of water (H₂O) => ? molecules of water (H₂O)

By the Avogadro relationship => 1 mole H₂O = 6.023 x 10²³ molecules of H₂O

Then 7 moles H₂O => 7 moles x 6.023 x 10²³ molecules H₂O/mole H₂O

= 4.216 x 10²⁴ water molecules.

_________________________________-

General FYI note ... if needed ...

The subscripts identify number of moles of element in one mole of formula weight. That is while 1 mole H₂O contains 6.023 x 10²³ molecules of water it also contains 2 moles of hydrogen or, 2 x 6.02 x 10²³ atoms of hydrogen and moles of oxygen 1 x 6.023 x 10²³ atoms of oxygen.

Answers

Answer:

1. iodide ion into neutral iodine

2. blue-black

3. neutral iodine into iodide ion

4. clear

Explanation:

The function of hypochlorite in iodine titration is to oxidize the iodide ion into iodine molecule as shown below;

ClO-(aq) + 2H+(aq) + 2I-(aq) ---------> 6 I2(l) + Cl- (aq)+ H2O(l)

The addition of starch to iodine leads to the formation of a starch iodide complex which has a blue black colour.

the titrant, thiosulfate, reduces neutral iodine into iodide ion as shown below;

I2  +  2S2O32-  → 2I- + S4O62-

At end point, the solution becomes clear again.

Please help as much as possible!

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given Rxn =>  4NH₃ + 5O₂ => 4NO + 6H₂O

Given data => 4.23 x 10²² molecules NH₃ => ? molecules NO

Approach: Convert given value in molecules to moles, solve for moles NO by equation ratios in balanced equation. Finish by multiplying moles of NO by Avogadro's Number (= 6.02 x 10²³ molecules/mole) to obtain molecules of NO.

moles NH₃ = 4.23 x 10²² molecules NH₃ / 6.023 x 10²³ molecules/mole

= 0.0703 mole NH₃

From equation stoichiometry of balanced equation 4 moles NH₃ gives 4 moles NO. Then 0.0703 mole NH₃ => 0.0703 mole NO b/c coefficients are equal in balanced equation.

∴molecules of NO = 0.0703 mole NO x 6.03 x 10²³ molecules NO/mole NO

= 4.23 x 10²² molecules of NO.

The remaining problems can be worked much in the same way. Convert given data to moles (if not already expressed in terms of moles), apply equation ratios to calculate needed substance in moles. Finish by converting calculated moles to desired dimension.

Hints for remaining problems:

Divide given moles of reactant substances by respective coefficients, the smaller value is the limiting reactant. Work problem based on moles (not the divide value. That's just for ID of Limiting Reactant). All other reactants will be in excess.

for problem 5 ...

Given       8S(l)        +         4Cl₂(g) => 4S₂Cl₂(l)

Given:  0.433mole       0.500mole

LR        0.433/8             0.500/4

            = 0.054             = 0.125

Limiting Reactant => Sulfur

Work problem from given 0.433 mole sulfur. Cl₂ will be in excess on completion of rxn.

Summary:

- convert data to moles

- divide mole values calculated by respective coefficient => smaller value is limiting reactant.

- use mole ratios to determine results, NOT the divided by value <=> this is only for ID of limiting reactant.

If ya need more, put question in comments. I'll get it. Now, If you do need additional input, before I do I will ask if you followed the hint suggestions, and your calculation results. Good luck :-)

At 47c a gas has a pressure of 140kpa. The gas is cooled until the pressure decreases to 105kpa. If the volume remains constant, what will the final temperature be in kelvin’s? In degrees Celsius

Answers

Answer:

The final temperature is equal to 240 K or -33.15°C

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial temperature of the gas, T₁ = 47°C = 320 K

Initial pressure, P₁ = 140 kpa

Final pressure, P₂ = 105 kpa

We need to find the final temperature if the volume remains constant.  The relation between temperature and pressure is given by :

[tex]P\propto T[/tex]

or

[tex]\dfrac{P_1}{P_2}=\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{P_2T_1}{P_1}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{105\times 320}{140}\\\\T_2=240\ K\\\\T_2=-33.15^{\circ} C[/tex]

So, the final temperature is equal to 240 K or -33.15°C.

The x-intercept shows us where the temperature can be no lower, defined as absolute zero. Absolute zero is 0 K. Look at the graph.

How many molecules are in 3.7 g H2O

Answers

No. of molecules= (No. of moles)*NA

No. of moles= (Given mass)/GMM

Given mass= 3.7

GMM of H2O= 18

Hence,

No. of moles= 3.7/18

NA= 6.022*10^23

so,

No. of molecules= (3.7/18)*6.022*10^23

Explanation:

Find out number of molecules first. To find out number of molecules, first we need to know the number of moles present. The number of moles can be obtained by dividing the weight by molecular mass. The Molecular mass of water is 18. Now, by multiplying the moles with the Avogadro number we can find out the number of molecules. Avogadro number is 6×(10 to the power 23). Hence the final result is 3.7/18 ×6 × ( 10 to the power 23).

Answers

Answer:

T₂ = 19.95°C

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy:

[tex]Heat\ Lost\ by\ Copper = Heat\ Gained\ by\ Water\\m_cC_c\Delta T_c = m_wC_w\Delta T_w[/tex]

where,

mc = mass of copper = 37.2 g

Cc = specific heat of copper = 0.385 J/g.°C

mw = mass of water = 188 g

Cw = specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g.°C

ΔTc = Change in temperature of copper = 99.8°C - T₂

ΔTw = Change in temperature of water = T₂ - 18.5°C

T₂ = Final Temperature at Equilibrium = ?

Therefore,

[tex](37.2\ g)(0.385\ J/g.^oC)(99.8\ ^oC-T_2)=(188\ g)(4.184\ J/g.^oC)(T_2-18.5\ ^oC)\\99.8\ ^oC-T_2 = \frac{(188\ g)(4.184\ J/g.^oC)}{(37.2\ g)(0.385\ J/g.^oC)}(T_2-18.5\ ^oC)\\\\99.8\ ^oC-T_2 = (54.92) (T_2-18.5\ ^oC)\\54.92T_2+T_2 = 99.8\ ^oC + 1016.02\ ^oC\\\\T_2 = \frac{1115.82\ ^oC}{55.92}[/tex]

Hello there!

In this case, according to the definition of molarity as moles of solute divided by volume of solution in liters, we can proceed as follows:

Q1: Here, given the molarity and volume we can calculate the moles of the sugar as follows:

[tex]n=M*V=0.4mol/L*0.1L\\\\n=0.04 mol[/tex]

Next, since its molar mass is about 180 g/mol, the mass turns out:

[tex]0.04mol*\frac{180g}{1mol} =7.2 g[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is c. 7.2 g.

Q2: Here, recalling the definition of molarity, we can just plug in the 0.629 moles and 1.500 L to obtain:

[tex]M=\frac{0.629mol}{1.5L}\\\\M=0.42M[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is a. 0.42 M.

Answers

Answer:

Asexual reproduction produces genetically identical offspring.

Binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction.

Explanation:

Asexual reproduction is that which occurs without gamete participation, ie there is no mixing of genetic material. In this process, a cell or group of them detaches from the body of a living being and gives rise to a new individual.

Individuals arising from asexual reproduction are genetically identical with each other, forming what is called a clone. These individuals will have different genetic heritage only if they undergo gene mutation, that is, alteration in the nitrogen base sequences of one or more DNA molecules.

There are several living beings that reproduce asexually among them, eukaryotes, prokaryotes, unicellular, multicellular, protists, bacteria, plants, animals, among others.

An example of asexual reproduction is binary fission, which consists of dividing a cell into two by mitosis, each with the same genome as the "mother cell" (with the same DNA or genetic material as the "mother cell").

Answers

If a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change to reestablish equilibrium. If a chemical reaction is at equilibrium and experiences a change in pressure, temperature, or concentration of products or reactants, the equilibrium shifts in the opposite direction to offset the change. This page covers changes to the position of equilibrium due to such changes and discusses briefly why catalysts have no effect on the equilibrium position.

For example, if the system is changed in a way that increases the concentration of one of the reacting species, it must favor the reaction in which that species is consumed. In other words, if there is an increase in products, the reaction quotient, Qc, is increased, making it greater than the equilibrium constant, Kc.

My swimming pool is rectangular (16 feet by 34 feet) and has a depth of 6 feet. Lets imagine that my pool water is full to the top and is heated by a laser that emits photons with a wavelength of 520 nm. The starting temperature of my pool is a chilly 52 degrees Celsius. How many moles of photons would be required to heat the pool to a balmy 80 degrees Celsius

Answers

Answer:

Number of moles of photons required = 5.04 × 10⁴ moles

Explanation:

The energy of a photon can be calculated from Planck's equation E = hc/λ

Where h = 6.63 × 10-³⁴ Js and c, the velocity of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s

Energy of one mole of photons = N₀ × hc/λ

wavelength of photon, λ = 520 nm = 5.20 × 10-⁷ m

Energy of one mole of photons = 6.02 × 10²³ × 6.63 × 10−³⁴ × 3 × 10⁸/5.20 × 10-⁷

Energy of one mole of photons = 2.30 × 10⁵ J/mol

Energy required to raise the temperature of a given mass of a substance, E = mcΔT

Where m is mass of substance,  c is specific heat capacity,  ΔT is temperature difference

Mass ofnwternin the pool = volume × density

Volume of water = Volume of swimming pool

Volume of water = 16 × 34 × 6 ft³ = 3264 ft³

1 ft³ = 28316.8 cm³; 3264 ft³ = 28316.8 × 3264 = 92426035.2 cm³

Density of water = 1 g/cm³

Mass of water = 92426035.2 cm³ × 1 g/cm³ = 92426035.2g

ΔT = 80°C - 50°C = 30°C, c = 4.18 J/g/K

Energy required to raise 92426035.2 g water by 30° C = 92426035.2 × 4.18 × 30

Energy required = 1.16 × 10¹⁰ J

Hence, number of moles of photons required = 1.16 × 10¹⁰ J/2.30 × 10⁵ J/mol

Number of moles of photons required = 5.04 × 10⁴ moles
