What are allotropes?

Allotrope or allotropism is the property of some chemical elements existing in two or more different forms in the same physical state, known as allotropes of the element. Allotropes are different structural modifications of an element. Atoms of elements are connected to each other in different ways. Examples of carbon allotropes include diamond (carbon atoms bonded together to form a cubic tetrahedral lattice), graphite (carbon atoms bonded together in layers in a hexagonal lattice), graphene (individual layers of graphite), and fullerenes (these where the carbon atoms are bonded in a spherical, tubular, or ellipsoidal fashion).

The term allotrope is used only for elements, not for compounds. A more general term used for any chemical compound is polymorphism, but its use is usually limited to solid materials such as crystals. Allotropes refer only to different forms of an element within the same physical phase (state of matter such as solid, liquid, or gas). Differences in these states of matter are not the only examples of allotropes. Allotropes of chemical elements are often called polymorphs or phases of the element.

The mass of 0.10 mole of methane

Answers

Answer:

A methane molecule is made from one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms. Carbon has a mass of 12.011 u and hydrogen has a mass of 1.008 u. This means that the mass of one methane molecule is 12.011 u + (4 × 1.008u), or 16.043 u. This means that one mole of methane has a mass of 16.043 grams.

The mass of 0.10 mole of methane (CH4) is 1.6grams.

HOW TO CALCULATE MASS?

The mass of a substance can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles of the substance by its molar mass. That is;

mass = moles × molar mass

According to this question, there are 0.10 mole in methane (CH4). The molar mass of CH4 is 16g/mol.

Mass of CH4 = 0.10 × 16

Mass of methane = 1.6grams.

Therefore, the mass of 0.10 mole of methane (CH4) is 1.6grams.

The boiling temperature of water is directly related to the atmospheric pressure. At sea level, the atmospheric pressure is 760 torr whereas the boiling temperature is 100equationC. If the atmospheric pressure is lower than 760 torr, then the boiling temperature will be less than 100equationC. If the atmospheric pressure is higher than 760 torr, then you would expect the boiling temperature to be higher than 100equationC. At higher elevations, the atmospheric pressure is lower resulting in a lower boiling temperature. For example: Denver, CO experiences a boiling temperature at ~ 94equationC. If you were conducting an experiment that involved boiling water, what would you expect the boiling temperature to be if the atmospheric pressure was 790 torr

Answers

Answer:

If the atmospheric pressure is lower than 760 torr, then the boiling temperature will be less than 100equationC.

B. 97.7°C

Explanation:

The question mentions the fact that temperature and pressure are directly proportional. This means that if one quantity is increasing the other increases simultaneously and vice versa.

Hence, if the atmospheric pressure is lower than 760 torr, then the boiling temperature will be less than 100equationC.

From;

PαT

P=kT

Hence

P/T = k

P1/T1 = P2/T2

P1T2 = P2T1

P1 =  760 torr

T1 = 94°C

T2 = ?

P2 = 790 torr

T2 =  P2T1/P1

T2 = 790 * 94/760

T2 = 97.7°C

A 1.26 g sample of He gas has a pressure of 0.123 arm and a volume of 32.6 L. What is the temperature of the sample, in degrees Celsius

Answers

Hello, the answer would be -118*C

A 1.26 g sample of He gas has a pressure of 0.123 arm and a volume of 32.6 L, then the temperature of the gas is -117.7 degree C.

How do we calculate the temperature of gas?

Temperature of any gas will be calculated by using the ideal gas equation as:

PV = nRT, where

P = pressure of gas = 0.123 atm

V = volume of gas = 32.6 L

R = universal gas constant = 0.082 L.atm / K.mol

T = temperature of gas = ?

n is moles of He gas and will be calculated as:

n = W/M, where

W = given mass = 1.26g

M = molar mass = 4 g/mol

n = 1.26 / 4 = 0.315 moles

On putting values we get,

T = (0.123)(32.6) / (0.315)(0.082)

T = 155.41 K = 155.41 - 273.15 = -117.7 degree C

Hence required temperature of the helium sample is -117.7 degree C.

9. In a laboratory experiment, two groups of rats are fed two different fatty acids as their sole source of carbon for a month. The first group gets heptanoic acid (7:0), and the second gets octanoic acid (8:0). After the experiment, a striking difference is seen between the two groups. Those in the first group are healthy and have gained weight, whereas those in the second group are weak and have lost weight as a result of losing muscle mass. What is the biochemical basis for this difference

Answers

Answer:

Beta oxidation of the odd chain heptanoic acid will produce propionyl CoA, which can be converted in several steps to oxaloacetate. Oxaloacetate is the starting material for the process of gluconeogenesis (producing glucose from noncarbohydrate precursors). This gives extra glucose to the first group, so they will be healthier and gain weight. Beta oxidation of the even chain will entirely be oxidized to acetyl Co-A (one of the precursors of the TCA cycle). This will lead to a large excess of ketone bodies instead of glucose for energy, which will lead to the second group being weak and losing weight.

Explanation:

The difference is seen in having an odd chain and an even chain of fatty acids and how they are broken down and used in the body.

To solve for speed or rate use the formula for speed, s = d/t which means speed equals distance divided by time.

The direction of a moving object is the direction the velocity vector points in. Where v1/2 is the magnitude of the velocity halfway to the top of the trajectory. So vdown=−vup - the two velocity vectors point in opposite directions not the same direction.

A 25.0 mL sample of HCI reacted with 20.0 mL of 2.00 M NaOH. What is the molarity of the HCI?
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) —> NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)
really need help!

Answers

Answer:

Molarity of HCl = 1.6M

Explanation:

The chemical reaction equation is;

HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) —> NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

Now, molarity = number of moles/volume

Thus, for NaOH, we have;

Number of moles = molarity × volume = 2M × (20/1000) L

Number of moles = 0.04 moles

Using the coefficients in the chemical equation above, we can find the corresponding number of moles for HCl.

Number of moles of HCl = 0.04 moles NaOH × (1 mole of HCl/1 mole of HCl) = 0.04 moles of HCl

Thus;

Molarity of HCl = 0.04/(25/1000)

Molarity of HCl = 1.6M

How many grams is 2.393 x 10^24 atoms of O?
70.45 g O
140.9 g O
63.58 mole O
63.58 g O

Answers

Answer:

63.58 g O

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of O atoms, the number of moles of O atoms are needed and can be calculated as follows:

n (no. of moles) = nA ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

n = 2.393 x 10^24 ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

n = 0.398 × 10^ (24-23)

n = 0.398 × 10^1

n = 3.98moles.

To calculate the mass of Oxygen, we use the following formula:

moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of O = 16.

3.98 = m/16

m = 3.98 × 16

m = 63.68grams of Oxygen.

Answer:

Solution given:

[tex]1 mole \:of O=6.023×10^{23} atoms[/tex]

1 mole of O =16g

we have

[tex] 6.023×10^{23} atoms\: of O=16g[/tex]

now

[tex] 2.393 × 10^{24} atoms\: of \:O\\=16/6.023×10^{23}*2.393 x 10^{24}g\\=63.57g[/tex]

63.57g is a required mass of O.
