Calculate the amount of heat required to completely sublime 55.0 g of solid dry ice CO2 at its sublimation temperature. The heat of sublimation for carbon dioxide is 32.3 kj mol

40.4 kJ

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 55.0 g of CO₂

The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol.

n = 55.0 g × 1 mol/44.01 g = 1.25 mol

Step 3: Calculate the heat (Q) required to sublimate 1.25 moles of CO₂

We will use the following expression.

Q = n × ΔH°sub

Q = 1.25 mol × 32.3 kJ/mol = 40.4 kJ

one negative thing it that it can kill water animals. another negative thing is it can cause the destruction of ecosystem. one way water pollution can be reduced is to conserve energy.
