Surface tension can change with the change in a medium that is just above the layer of the liquid's surface.

Explanation:

Pouring any oil or oily compounds (such as kerosene) on the free surface of the water will reduce the surface tension.

in the atmosphere directly affects the surface tension of the liquid.

If we increase the temperature of the water, then there is a high possibility of the surface tension of the water getting reduced, due to the fact that the net force of attraction is decreased.

Mixing surfactants or emulsifiers into the water will decrease the surface tension.

If the water is subjected to electrification, then the surface tension will be reduced.

A sealed container holding 0.0255 L of an ideal gas at 0.981 atm and 65 ∘ C is placed into a refrigerator and cooled to 41 ∘ C w

Answer:

0.911 atm

Explanation:

In this problem, there is no change in volume of the gas, since the container is sealed.

Therefore, we can apply Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:

"For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically:

$p\propto T$

where

p is the gas pressure

T is the absolute temperature

For a gas undergoing a transformation, the law can be rewritten as:

$\frac{p_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2}{T_2}$

where in this problem:

$p_1=0.981 atm$ is the initial pressure of the gas

$T_1=65^{\circ}+273=338 K$ is the initial absolute temperature of the gas

$T_2=41^{\circ}+273=314 K$ is the final temperature of the gas

Solving for p2, we find the final pressure of the gas:

$p_2=\frac{p_1 T_2}{T_1}=\frac{(0.981)(314)}{338}=0.911 atm$

What is the definition of the half-life of a radioactive isotope?

Illusion [34]

Answer:Half-life is the amount of time it takes for the initial mass of the isotope to decompose, by half, into other lighter atoms.

Explanation:Different radioactive isotopes have different half-lives. For example, the element technetium-99m has a half life of 6 hours. This means that is 100 kg of the element is left to decay, in 6 hours, 50kg of the mass will have changed into other elements/atoms. The half-life of uranium-238 is 4.5 billion years while that of polonium-216 is only 0.145 seconds.
