What are “condensation nuclei”?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Cloud condensation nuclei or CCNs are small particles typically 0.2 µm, or 1/100 the size of a cloud droplet on which water vapor condenses. Water requires a non-gaseous surface to make the transition from a vapour to a liquid; this process is called condensation.

If 316 mL nitrogen is combined with 178 mL oxygen, what volume of N2O is produced at constant temperature and pressure if the re
lord [1]

Answer;

=259 ml

Explanation;

-According to Gay Lussac's Law of Combining Volumes when gases react, they do so in volumes which have a simple ratio to one another, and to the volume of the product formed if gaseous, provided the temperature and pressure remain constant.

-Thus; from the volume of nitrogen and oxygen gases; we have; 316 / 178 = 1.775 moles of nitrogen gas per mole of oxygen gas.

-Therefore, nitrogen gas is the limiting reactant, and for each mole of nitrogen gas used, we will get 1 mole of N2O. This means the resulting volume of N2O with 100% yield will be the same as the volume of nitrogen gas used, thus, 100% yield will produce 316 mL.

However, with 82% yield the volume would be; 316 × 82/100 =259 ml

Therefore; the volume of N2O at 82% yield will be 259 ml
