Answer:

C₄F₈

Explanation:

To find the mass, we will use the mole ratio.

The molar mass of carbon is 12.0107 g/mol.

For fluorine gas, the molar mass is 37.99681 g/mol.

Let x represent the mass of carbon.

The provided mass of fluorine is 1.70 g.

Setting up the proportion: x / 12.01067 = 1.70 / 37.99687.

Now, we will cross-multiply.

This results in: x = (1.70 × 12) / 37.99687 = 20.4 / 37.99687 = 0.53688 g.

To find the mass of one mole of CF₂, we add: 0.53688 + 1.70 = 2.23688 g.

The moles of CF₂ are calculated as: 8.93 g / 2.23688 = 3.992, which rounds to approximately 4.

The molecular formula for CF₂ is then 4(CF₂) = C₄F₈

27. How much energy is required to change 150.0 g of water from 10.0°C to 45.0°C? (Cwater =
Alekssandra [3086]

Answer:

The correct option is C. 21900.3. I calculated 21945 J, which makes option C closely aligned with my result.

Explanation:

Data

mass = 150 g

initial temperature T1 = 10°C

final temperature T2 = 45°C

Cw = 4.18 J/g°C

Formula

Q = mCΔT = mC(T2 - T1)

Substitution

Q = (150)(4.18)(45 - 10)

Simplification

Q = (150)(4.18)(35)

Result

Q = 21945 J

Find the age t of a sample, if the total mass of carbon in the sample is mc, the activity of the sample is a, the current ratio
Alekssandra [3086]
N₀ signifies the quantity of C-14 atoms per kg of carbon in the original sample at time = 0 seconds, when the carbon composition matched that in today’s atmosphere. As time progresses to ts, the number of C-14 atoms per kg declines to N, due to radioactive decay. λ indicates the decay constant.
Hence, we have N = N₀e - λt, which is the equation for radioactive decay. Rearranging gives us N₀/N = e λt, or In(N₀/N) = - λt, which becomes equation 1.
The sample contains mc kg of carbon, leading to an activity measured as A/mc decay per kg. The variable r represents the initial mass of C-14 in the sample at t=0 relative to the total mass of carbon which is calculated as [(total number of C-14 atoms at t = 0) × ma] / total mass of carbon. Thus, N₀ equates to r/ma, which becomes equation 2.
The activity of the radioactive element is directly related to the atom count at the moment. The activity equation A = dN/dt = λ(N) indicates that: A = λ₁(N × mc). Rearranging provides N = A / (λmc), represented in equation 3.
By integrating equations 2 and 3, we can solve for t yielding
t = (1/λ) In(rλmc/m₀A).

The normal boiling point of c2cl3f3 is 47.6°c and its molar enthalpy of vaporization is 27.49 kj/mol. what is the change in entr
eduard [2782]
Based on the equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS = 0

It follows that ΔS = ΔH/T

So, ΔS = n*ΔHVap / Tvap

- where n represents the number of moles calculated as mass/molar mass

For a mass of 24.1 g

and a molar mass of 187.3764 g/mol

substituting gives:

∴ n = 24.1 / 187.3764g/mol

      = 0.129 moles

The molar enthalpy of vaporization, ΔHvap, is 27.49 kJ/mol

The temperature in Kelvin, Tvap = 47.6 + 273 = 320.6 K

After substitution, we compute ΔS, the change in entropy:

∴ΔS = 0.129 mol * 27490 J/mol / 320.6 K

      = 11 J/K

Given the following equation and heat of reaction: 2 moles of A combine with 2 moles of B to produce 6 moles of C and 26 kJ What
KiRa [2933]

Answer: The change in enthalpy will be -13.

Explanation:-

Endothermic reactions absorb heat, while exothermic reactions release heat. In the case of an endothermic reaction, the change in enthalpy is represented as positive, whereas for an exothermic reaction, it is negative.

\Delta H  \Delta H

2A+2B\rightarrow 6C+26kJWhen one mole of A combines with one mole of B to form three moles of C

2A+2B\rightarrow 6CSo the stoichiometric ratio being halved also results in the enthalpy for the reaction being halved.\DeltaH=-26kJ

Thus, for this reaction:

 

     

A+B\rightarrow 3C+\frac{26}{2}kJ

The resulting change in enthalpy is -13.

A+B\rightarrow 3C\DeltaH=-13kJ
