A sample of PCl5 weighting 2.69 gram was placed in 1.00 Litter container and completely vaporized at 250C. The pressure observed at that temperature was 1.00 atm. The possibility exists that some of the PCl5 dissociated according to PCl5 (g) ! PCl3 (g) Cl2 (g) . What must be the partial pressures of PCl5 PCl3 and Cl2 under these experimental conditions

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Partial pressures:

PCl₅ = 0.558 atm

PCl₃ = 0.22 atm

Cl₂ = 0.22 atm

Explanation:

From the given information:

The number of moles of PCl₅ associated with the evaporation is:

[tex]n_{PCl_5}= \dfrac {weight \ of \ PCl_5} {M.Wt. \ of \ PCl_5}[/tex]

[tex]n_{PCl_5}= \dfrac {2.69 \ g} {208.5 \ g/mol}[/tex]

[tex]n_{PCl_5}= 0.013 \ mol[/tex]

Temperature of the gas = 250° C = (250 + 273.15) K

= 523.15 K

Using the Ideal gas equation to determine the pressure exerted by the completely vaporized PCl₅

PV = nRT

[tex]P = \dfrac{nRT}{V}[/tex]

[tex]P = \dfrac{0.0013 \ mol \times 0.082 \ Latm^0 K^{-1} . mol ^{-1} \times 523.15 \ K}{1.0 \ L}[/tex]

P = 0.558 atm

Thus, at  250° C, decomposition of PCl₅ occurs.

In the container, PCl₅  decomposes to PCl₃ and Cl₂.

i.e.

[tex]PCl_{5(g)} \to PCl_{3(g)}+ Cl_{2(g)}[/tex]

Using Dalton's Law:

[tex]P_{total } =P_1 + P_2+P_3 +...[/tex]

[tex]P_1 = P_{Total} \times X_1[/tex]

where;

X = mole fraction

Then, the total no. of moles in the container is:

[tex]n = \dfrac{PV} {RT}[/tex]

[tex]n = \dfrac{1\ atm \times 1.0\ L}{0.0821 \ L \ atm \ K^{-1}.mol \times 523.15\ K}[/tex]

n = 0.023 mol

Now, the container contains a total amount of 0.023 mol where initially 0.013 mol are that of PCl₅ and remaining 0.005 mol of PCl₃ and 0.005 mol of Cl₂.

Thus, the partial pressure of  PCl₃  is:

[tex]P__{PCL_3} }= P_{total} \times \dfrac{no. \ of \ moles \ of PCl_5}{total \ no. \ of \ moles}[/tex]

[tex]P__{PCL_3}} = 1 \ atm \times \dfrac{0.005}{0.023}[/tex]

[tex]P__{PCL_3}} = 0.22 \ atm[/tex]

Thus, since the no of moles of PCl₃ and Cl₂ are the same, then the partial pressure for Cl₂ is = 0.22 atm

Which statement correctly describes ionic bonds? Multiple Choice An ionic bond only forms between two atoms of the same element. Ionic bonds usually form between electrically neutral, stable atoms. An ionic bond is the electrostatic force that holds ions together when they form bonds. All of the answer choices are correct.

Answers

Answer:

An ionic bond is the electrostatic force that holds ions together when they form bonds

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed when a metal looses electron(s) to a non metal leading to the formation of a positive ion and a negative ion.

An ionic compound is actually an ion pair, the ions are held together by strong electrostatic forces.

This strong electrostatic force that holds the ion pair together in ionic compounds is what we commonly call the IONIC BOND.

How many orbitals in an atom can have each of the following designations:
(a) 1s;
(b) 4d;
(c) 3p;
(d) n=3?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 1s; has one orbital

(b) 4d; has five orbitals

(c) 3p; has three orbitals

(d) n=3 has nine orbitals

Explanation:

Electrons in an atom are always in constant motion, making it hard to predict there exact position. However, the most probable locations electrons can be be found are described with the terms shells, subshells and orbitals. A shell contains subshells and orbitals are found within subshells. The shells are given names such as K, L, M, N, which correspond to the principal quantum numbers, n = 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively. There are 4 major types of subshells that can be found in a shell. They are named as s, p, d, f. Each subshell is composed of several orbitals.

a. 1s; the s subshell has only one orbital. Therefore, the 1s subshell has one orbital

b. 4d; the d subshell has five orbitals. Therefore, the 4d subshell has five orbitals

c. 3p; the p subshell has three orbitals. Therefore, the 3d subshell has  three orbitals

d. n = 3; the shell with n = 3 has the following subshells, 3s, 3p, 3d.the number of orbitals will be 1 + 3 + 5 = 9 orbitals. Therefore, the number of orbitals in n = 3 is nine orbitals

An atom has 81 electrons, 84 neutrons, and 82 protons. What element is this atom?

Answers

Answer:

Lead

Explanation:

The subatomic particles within an atom can be used to know the atom or element given.

Of particular interest is the number of protons within the atom.

The periodic table is based on the atomic number of atoms. This atomic number is the number of protons within an atomic space.

So; If we know the number of protons within an atom, we can know the element.

The number of protons given is 82, the element is  therefore lead.

Answer:

The atomic number of polonium is 84. The atomic number lead is 82.

A series of dilute NaCl solutions are prepared starting with an initial stock solution of 0.100 M NaCl. Solution A is prepared by pipeting 10 mL of the stock solution into a 250-mL volumetric flask and diluting to volume. Solution B is prepared by pipeting 25 mL of solution A into a 100-mL volumetric flask and diluting to volume. Solution C is prepared by pipeting 20 mL of solution B into a 500-mL volumetric flask and diluting to volume. What is the molar concentration of NaCl in solutions A, B and C

Answers

Answer:

Solution A: 0.00400M

Solution B: 0.00400M

Solution C: 4.00x10⁻⁵M

Explanation:

Solution A is diluting the 0.100M NaCl from 10mL to 250mL. That is:

250mL / 10mL = 25 times.

That means molar concentration of sln A is:

0.100M / 25 = 0.00400M

Solution B is obtained diluting 25mL to 100mL:

100mL / 25mL = 4 times

0.00400M / 4 times = 0.00100M

And solution C is obtained diluting the solution C from 20mL to 500mL:

500mL / 20mL = 25 times

Solution C:

0.00100M / 25 times = 4.00x10⁻⁵M

The formula for serial dilution can be used to obtain the molarity of solution A, B , C.

For solution A

M1V1 = M2V2

M2 = 0.100 M ×  10 mL/250-mL

M2 = 0.004 M

For solution B

M1V1 = M2V2

M2 = 0.004 M × 25 mL/100-mL

M2 = 0.001 M

For solution C

M1V1 = M2V2

M2 = 0.001 M × 20 mL/500-mL

M2 = 0.00004 M

Which statement about Niels Bohr's atomic model is true?
O Higher orbits have lower energies.
O Each orbit has a specific energy level.
O Electrons can exist in any energy level.
O Orbits close to the nucleus have no energy.

Answers

Answer:

O Each orbit has a specific energy level.

Explanation:

Neils Bohr put forward his own model of the atom based on the quantum mechanics originally developed by Planck.

He assumed the Rutherford's model and suggested that the extranuclear part consists of electrons in specific spherical orbits around the nucleus.

The orbits/energy level are the permissible through which the electrons can move through.

His concept is based the concept that the electron can move round the nucleus in certain permissible orbitss
