Chemistry

Answer:

320

Explanation:

Because the question is asking for 2 significant figures, you want to try to get rid of all of the numbers to the right of the 1. That way, the only numbers that will be significant are the numbers in the position of the 3 and the 1.

Before you can make the rest of the numbers equal 0, you need to correctly round the number in the last significant position (the number 1).

If the number to the right of the 1 is from 0-4, the number stays the same. If the number is from 5-9, the 1 needs to be increased by a unit.

Since the number to the right is an 8, you need to change the 1 to a 2. Now, you can make all of the other numbers a 0. There should be no decimal place because it would mean that the zero to the left of it is significant.

A 3.82L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 204.9K to 304.8 K.

likoan [24]

Given :

A 3.82L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 204.9K to 304.8 K.

To Find :

The volume of the gas after it is heated.

Solution :

Since, their is no information about pressure in the question statement let us assume that pressure is constant.

Now, we know by ideal gas equation at constant pressure :

$\dfrac{V_1}{V_2} = \dfrac{T_1}{T_2}\\\\\dfrac{3.82}{V_2}= \dfrac{204.9}{304.8}\\\\V_2 = \dfrac{304.8}{204.9} \times 3.82\\\\V_2 = 5.68 \ L$

Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the type of weak bond between the hydrogen of one molecule and the nitrogen of another molecule, where the two don't act

Aliun [14]

<h2>Hydrogen Bonding</h2>

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is a type of weak bond.
Hydrogen Bonding occurs when the hydrogen atom of one molecule is bonded with a molecule of high electronegativity element like nitrogen of another molecule.
It is a type of dipole-dipole interations.
The nitrogen is a highly electronegative element that forms a weak bond with the hydrogen atom of another molecule with dipole-dipole interaction.
Hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent and ionic bonds.
Therefore the type of bond is Hydrogen bond.

How many atoms are in 4 moles of oxygen?

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

There are 6.022 × 10 23 O atoms in a mole of O atoms. There are 6.022 × 10 23 O 2 molecules in a mole of . Since you have 2 oxygen atoms in one molecule, there are 2 × 6.022 × 10 23 O atoms in a mole of . A 'mole' is not short for a 'molecule

Most oxygen in our atmosphere _____. has two oxygen atoms has three oxygen atoms combines with carbon has a single oxygen atom

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

has Two oxygen atoms

Explanation:

Oxygen is a diatomic element hence exists as O2 for majority of its existence in our atmosphere. Although small portion does exist in form of O3 which protects earth from sun's harmful ray, the majority portion of oxygen has O2 which is the oxygen we breathe.
