Scientists conducted an experiment to show whether the ability to see an object affects a person's idea of the mass of the objec

t. They used the following procedure: Obtain two cardboard boxes of different sizes. Place rocks in each box so that both boxes have the same mass. Close each box and tie a string to it so that participants lift each box using the string. Blindfold half of the participants in the experiment. Ask participants to lift each box using the string and report which one they think has more mass. Record results. The table shows the results of the experiment

Lithium, sodium and potassium are all in group 1 of the periodic table. Which of these has the lowest boiling point?

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Potassium

Explanation:

In group one of the periodic table both the melting and the boiling points usually decrease down the group.

Now, down the group, it's lithium that comes first, then sodium, then potassium.

Thus, among the 3, potassium is furthermost down the group by virtue of the factor it has the highest atomic number.

Therefore, we can say that potassium has the lowest boiling point among the 3.

Solution A is 0.44 M and reacts with 0.11 M of solution B. Assume that the value of x is 0, the value of y is 1, and r is 1.07 ×

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

K, the rate constant = 9.73 × 10^(-1)/s

Explanation:

r = K × [A]^x × [B]^y

r = Rate = 1.07 × 10^(-1)/s

K = Rate constant

A and B = Concentration in mol/dm^-3

A = 0.44M

B = 0.11M

x = Order of reaction with respect to A = 0

y = Order of reaction with respect to B = 1

Solving, we get

r/([A]^x × [B]^y) = K

K = 1.07 × 10^(-1)/s/(0.44^0 × 0.11^1)= 0.9727

K = 0.9727

Determine Z and V for steam at 250°C and 1800 kPa by the following: (a) The truncated virial equation [Eq. (3.38)] with the foll

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

the temperature $T_1$ = 250 °C= ( 250+ 273.15 ) K = 523.15 K

Pressure = 1800 kPa

a)

The truncated viral equation is expressed as:

$\frac{PV}{RT} = 1 + \frac{B}{V} + \frac{C}{V^2}$

where; B = - $152.5 \ cm^3 /mol$ C = -5800 $cm^6/mol^2$

R = 8.314 × 10³ cm³ kPa. K⁻¹.mol⁻¹

Plugging all our values; we have

$\frac{1800*V}{8.314*10^3*523.15} = 1+ \frac{-152.5}{V} + \frac{-5800}{V^2}$

$4.138*10^{-4} \ V= 1+ \frac{-152.5}{V} + \frac{-5800}{V^2}$

Multiplying through with V² ; we have

$4.138*10^4 \ V ^3 = V^2 - 152.5 V - 5800 = 0$

$4.138*10^4 \ V ^3 - V^2 + 152.5 V + 5800 = 0$

V = 2250.06 cm³ mol⁻¹

Z = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

Z = $\frac{1800*2250.06}{8.314*10^3*523.15}$

Z = 0.931

b) The truncated virial equation [Eq. (3.36)], with a value of B from the generalized Pitzer correlation [Eqs. (3.58)–(3.62)].

The generalized Pitzer correlation is :

$T_c = 647.1 \ K \\ \\ P_c = 22055 \ kPa \\ \\ \omega = 0.345$

$T__{\gamma}} = \frac{T}{T_c}$

$T__{\gamma}} = \frac{523.15}{647.1}$

$T__{\gamma}} = 0.808$

$P__{\gamma}} = \frac{P}{P_c}$

$P__{\gamma}} = \frac{1800}{22055}$

$P__{\gamma}} = 0.0816$

$B_o = 0.083 - \frac{0.422}{T__{\gamma}}^{1.6}}$

$B_o = 0.083 - \frac{0.422}{0.808^{1.6}}$

$B_o = 0.51$

$B_1 = 0.139 - \frac{0.172}{T__{\gamma}}^{ \ 4.2}}$

$B_1 = -0.282$

The compressibility is calculated as:

$Z = 1+ (B_o + \omega B_1 ) \frac{P__{\gamma}}{T__{\gamma}}$

$Z = 1+ (-0.51 +(0.345* - 0.282) ) \frac{0.0816}{0.808}$

Z = 0.9386

$V= \frac{ZRT}{P}$

$V= \frac{0.9386*8.314*10^3*523.15}{1800}$

V = 2268.01 cm³ mol⁻¹

c) From the steam tables (App. E).

At $T_1 = 523.15 \ K \ and \ P = 1800 \ k Pa$

V = 0.1249 m³/ kg

M (molecular weight) = 18.015 gm/mol

V = 0.1249 × 10³ × 18.015

V = 2250.07 cm³/mol⁻¹

R = 729.77 J/kg.K

Z = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

Z = $\frac{1800*10^3 *0.1249}{729.77*523.15}$

Z = 0.588
