Answer:

The mass of coke needed to react completely with 1.0 ton of copper(II) oxide is 0.794 Ton.

Explanation:

$2CuO+C\rightarrow 2Cu+CO_2$

1 Ton = 907185 grams

Mass of copper oxide = 1.0 Ton = 907185 grams

Moles of copper oxide = $\frac{907185 g}{79.55 g/mol}=11,403.95 moles$

According to reaction, 2 moles of copper oxide reacts with 1 mole of carbon.

Then 11403.95 moles of copper oxide will react with:

$\frac{1}{2}\times 11403.95 mol=5,701.98 mol$ of carbon

Mass of 5,701.98 moles of carbon:

$5,701.98 mol\times 12 g/mol=68,423.75 g$

Mass of coke = x

Mass of carbon = 68,423.75 g

Percentage of carbon in coke = 95%

$95\%=\frac{68,423.75 g}{x}\times 100$

$x=720,250.09 g=0.794 Ton$

The mass of coke needed to react completely with 1.0 ton of copper(II) oxide is 0.794 Ton.

Boron has two naturally-ocurring isotopes. Boron-10 has an abundance of 19.8% and actual mass of 10.013 amu, and boron-11 has an

aniked [119]

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 10.812 amu

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

$Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})$

Given that:

For first isotope, Boron-10:

% = 19.8 %

Mass = 10.013 amu

For second isotope, Boron-11:

% = 80.2 %

Mass = 11.009 amu

Thus,

$Average\ atomic\ mass=\frac{19.8}{100}\times {10.013}+\frac{80.2}{100}\times {11.009}=1.982574+8.829218=10.811792$

Average atomic mass = 10.812 amu

If you were going to graphically determine the enthalpy of vaporization, δhvap, for this liquid, what points would you plot

Klio2033 [76]

It depends on what type of graph you have. The easiest would be using a H-T diagram. Enthalpy of vaporization is the physical change from liquid to vapor. It occurs at a constant pressure and a constant temperature. As shown in the picture, 1 point is drawn on the subcooled liquid, and another point of the saturated vapor isothermal line. Now, the difference between those two points is the value for the enthalpy of vaporization of water.
