why does methane exist as a gas and nonane exist as liquid​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Molecular weight

Explanation:

The difference in the physical state of nonane vs methane at STP.  Methane is a very small molecule with a molecular weight of 16 g/mol.  It exists as a gas at standard temperature and pressure.  Nonane is a much larger molecule with a molecular weight of 128.2 g/mol.  It exists as a liquid at standard temperature and pressure.  

All gasses at STP are Made of small molecular weight molecules.  The smaller a molecule, the more movement the individual atoms have.  The increased movement of smaller molecules allows them to have more space between individual molecules.  The increased molecular motion and space between molecules is one of the main differences between a gas versus a liquid or solid.  The larger nonane molecules have less molecular motion and so are can be closer together and so exist as a liquid instead of a gas.

b. Zn(NO3)2
c. [Cu(NH3)4]Cl2
d. CdSO4
e. AgClO3
f. Cr(NO3)2

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The colour of many transition metal complexes stem from transitions of electrons between energy levels. These transitions are governed by the spin selection rules and the colour is determined by the magnitude of crystal field splitting.

According to the spin selection rules, transitions in which ΔS = 0 are forbidden. Hence, a Mn^2+high spin compound is expected to be colourless. However, contrary to the spin selection rules Mn^2+high spin compounds do exhibit transitions in which the intensity is only about one-hundredth of the intensity of the spin allowed transitions. Thus many Mn^2+  high spin compounds such as Mn(NO3)2 are very pale pink or off white.

Note also that the crystal field stabilization energy of Mn^2+ which is a d^5 low spin ion is zero hence the very pale colour observed.

K4[Mn(CN)6] is deep blue as a result of charge transfer. Also, the compound exhibits an observed crystal field stabilization energy because it is a d^5 low spin compound hence the observed colour. Its low spin nature is because the cyanide ion is a strong field ligand hence it causes a greater magnitude of crystal filed splitting.

The following compounds are colourless;

Zn(NO3)2

CdSO4

AgClO3

One thing that is common to all the compounds listed above is that they are all d^10 compounds. This means that they all possess completely filled d-orbitals hence they are colourless.

Calculate the energy of an electron in the n = 2 level of a hydrogen atom.

Answers

Answer: The energy of an electron in the n = 2 level of a hydrogen atom is 3.40 eV.

Explanation:

Given: n = 2

The relation between energy and [tex]n^{th}[/tex] orbit of an atom is as follows.

[tex]E = - \frac{13.6}{n^{2}} eV[/tex]

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

[tex]E = - \frac{13.6}{n^{2}} eV\\= - \frac{13.6}{(2)^{2}}\\= - 3.40 eV[/tex]

The negative sign indicates that energy is being released.

Thus, we can conclude that the energy of an electron in the n = 2 level of a hydrogen atom is 3.40 eV.

The equilibrium concentrations 0.60 M for E, 0.80 M for F, and 1.30 M for G. (Note: E, F, and G are all gases.) Do not include your solution.

Answers

Answer:

kc = [G]² / [E] [F], kc = [1.30M]² / [0.60M] [0.80M]

Explanation:

The reaction is:

E + F ⇄ 2G

The equilibrium constant, kc, must be written as the ratio of the molar concentrations of products over reactants. Each concentration powered to its coefficient.

For the reaction of the problem, kc is:

kc = [G]² / [E] [F]

Replacing the given concentrations:

kc = [1.30M]² / [0.60M] [0.80M]

The average rate of formation of O2 over the same time period is:__________ M min-1

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced reaction for the decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide

2 N₂O₅(g) ⇒ 2 N₂(g) + 5 O₂(g)

Step 2: Calculate the average rate of formation of oxygen

The average rate of disappearance of N₂O₅ over the time period from t = 0 min to t = 112 min is found to be 5.80 × 10⁻⁴ M min⁻¹ (5.80 × 10⁻⁴ molN₂O₅ L⁻¹  min⁻¹). Given that the molar ratio of N₂O₅ to O₂ is 2:5, the average rate of formation of O₂ is:

5.80 × 10⁻⁴ molN₂O₅ L⁻¹  min⁻¹ × 5 molO₂/ 2 molN₂O₅ = 1.45 × 10⁻³ molO₂ L⁻¹  min⁻¹ = 1.45 × 10⁻³ M min⁻¹

How Do i get this answer with steps ?

Answers

Answer:

1.765x10²⁵ molecules

Explanation:

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4H₂O

First we convert 7.328 moles of propane (C₃H₈) into moles of H₂O, using the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced reaction:

7.328 mol C₃H₈ * [tex]\frac{4molH_2O}{1molC_3H_8}[/tex] = 29.312 mol H₂O

Then we convert 29.312 moles of H₂O into molecules, using Avogadro's number:

29.312 mol * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 1.765x10²⁵ molecules

2()+32() ⇄ 23()

Answers

Answer:

The reaction will proceed to the right to attain the equilibrium.

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 N₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) = 2 NH₃(g)

Step 2: Calculate the reaction quotient

The reaction quotient (Qc) is calculated in the same way as the equilibrium constant (Kc) but it uses the concentrations at any time.

Qc = [NH₃]² / [N₂]² × [H₂]³

Qc = 8.00² / 1.50² × 1.00³ = 28.4

Since Qc ≠ Kc, the reaction is not at equilibrium.

Since Qc < Kc, the reaction will proceed to the right to attain the equilibrium.

You react 20.00 grams of aluminum with iron(III) oxide. How many grams of iron should you produce?
What is the percent yield if the experimental yield is 32.67 grams of iron?

Answers

Answer:

78.8%

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

2 Al(s) + Fe2O3(aq) ------> Al2O3(aq) + 2Fe(s)

Number of moles in 20g of Al= 20g/27 g/mol = 0.74 moles

From the reaction equation;

2 moles of Al yields 2 moles of Fe

0.74 moles of Al yields 0.74 moles of Fe

Hence;

Mass of Fe produced = 0.74 moles of Fe * 56 g/mol

Mass of Fe produced = 41.44 g of Fe (This is the theoretical yield of Fe)

percent yield = actual yield/ theoretical yield  * 100

actual yield = 32.67 grams of iron

percent yield = 32.67 g/41.44 g * 100

percent yield = 78.8%

0.040M RbOH

Explanation:

The reaction of Rb with water is:

2Rb + 2H₂O → 2RbOH + H₂

As 2 moles of rubidium produce 2 moles of rubidium hydroxide, we need to find the moles of rubidium added. With these moles and the volume we can find molar concentration of RbOH as follows:

Moles Rb = Moles RbOH -Molar mass Rb = 85.4678g)

8.5g * (1mol / 85.4678g) = 0.099 moles RbOH

As 1dm³ = 1L, the volume in liters is 2.5L

That means molarity is:

0.099 moles RbOH / 2.5L =

0.040M RbOH
