Answer: The specific heat (J/g-K) for the given substance is 0.780 J/g.K.

Explanation:

Molar heat capacity: It represents the quantity of heat required to increase the temperature of one mole of a substance by one degree Celsius.

One mole of the substance releases 92.1 J/K.

Given that the molar mass of the unknown substance is 118 g/mol, we conclude that one mole weighs 118 g.

Since 118 g of this substance gives off heat equal to 92.1 J/K,

we find that 1 g of the substance releases heat = \frac{92.1}{118}=0.780J/g.K.

Thus, the specific heat (J/g-K) of this substance is, 0.780 J/g.K.

alisha [2683]

Answer:

a-294

b-3.401×10^-6

c and d - 2.048×10^18

Explanation:

Multiply the RAM for each individual element by its molecular number, e.g., (c-12×14), and then sum to find the molar mass.

b-The molar mass is expressed in grams/mol, hence convert 1 mg to g, which equals 0.001, and divide it by the molar mass.

c/d-1 mole of any substance consists of 6.023×10^23 (ions, molecules, etc.), therefore we need to find the moles here as

(3.401×10^-6) × (6.023×10^23).

65g of nitric acid are produced in a reaction. 2.5g of platinum are added to the reaction vessel at the start of the reaction to
alisha [2683]

Answer:

2.5 g of platinum

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance added to a reaction to enhance the reaction speed. It does not undergo any change during the reaction, meaning it remains unchanged after the reaction concludes. The role of a catalyst is to provide an alternative pathway for the reaction by reducing the activation energy required. Therefore, a catalyzed reaction occurs more rapidly and requires less energy compared to an uncatalyzed one.

Since catalysts do not get involved in reactions and retain their mass post-reaction, the amount of platinum will stay the same (2.5g). The mass can only alter if a substance participates in the chemical process. Thus, this is the response.

The value of delta G at 141.0 degrees celsius for the formation of phosphorous trichloride from its constituent elements,
VMariaS [2616]
The appropriate answer is option E. Gibbs free energy can be expressed using the equation: ΔG = ΔH - TΔS, where ΔH denotes the change in enthalpy of the reaction, T is the reaction temperature, and ΔS signifies entropy change. For our calculations, we have ΔH = -720.5 kJ/mol which converts to -720500 J/mol (given that 1 kJ = 1000 J), ΔS = -263.7 J/K, and T = 141.0°C, which equals 414.15 K. Consequently, the Gibbs free energy for the specified reaction at 141.0°C is calculated as -611.3 kJ/mol.
