During a melting point determination, the heating is constant and causes the temperature of the unit to continuously rise. In light of that, explain in your words why a measured melting point can never truly be a single temperature. Which would give a smaller melting point range, slower heating or more rapid heating? A small sample or a large sample? Explain.

How many moles of gas are present if p=11 atm, v=12l, t=185k?

For each of the compounds below, show that the charges on the ions add up to zero. a. kbr b. cao c. li(2)o d. cacl(2) e. alcl(3)

There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. in the first step, calcium carbide and water react to form acetylene and calcium hydroxide: cac2 (s) + 2h2o (g) → c2h2 (g) + caoh2 (s) =δh−414.kj in the second step, acetylene, carbon dioxide and water react to form acrylic acid: 6c2h2 (g) + 3co2 (g) + 4h2o (g) → 5ch2chco2h (g) =δh132.kj calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide from these reactions. round your answer to the nearest kj .
