Why is the vapor pressure of a warm pale higher than the vapor pressure of a cold lake

1 answer:

3 0

The vapor pressure of a warm pale higher than the vapor pressure of a cold lake because Warm water evaporates more quickly.

Hence, Option B is correct answer.

<h3>What is Evaporation ? </h3>

The process in which a liquid or solid is converted into vapour is called Evaporation. When water gains the heat energy then it changes in to gas. When the temperature increases it speeds up the rate of evaporation.

The temperature of warm water increases, the kinetic energy of the warm water molecule also increases.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The vapour pressure of a warm lake is higher than the vapor pressure of a cold lake because Warm water evaporates more quickly.

Hence, Option B is correct answer.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

$\text{An gasoline-powered vehicle has }\\\boxed{\text{five times the carbon footprint}}\text{ of an electric vehicle.}$

Explanation:

1. Miles travelled in an average month

$\text{Miles} = \text{1 mo} \times \dfrac{\text{52 wk}}{\text{12 mo}} \times \dfrac{\text{5 da}}{\text{1 wk}} \times \dfrac{\text{16 mi}}{\text{1 da}} = \text{347 mi}$

2. Using a gasoline powered vehicle

(a) Moles of heptane used

$n = \text{347 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{36.5 mi}}\times \dfrac{\text{3.785 L}}{\text{1 gal}} \times \dfrac{\text{679.5 g}}{\text{1L}} \times \dfrac{ \text{1 mol}}{\text{100.20 g}}= \text{244 mol}$

(b) Equation for combustion

C₇H₁₆ + O₂ ⟶ 7CO₂ + 8H₂O

(c) Moles of CO₂ formed

$n = \text{244 mol heptane} \times \dfrac{\text{7 mol CO$_{2}$}}{\text{1 mol heptane}} = \text{1710 mol CO$_{2}$}$

(d) Volume of CO₂ formed

At 20 °C and 1 atm, the molar volume of a gas is 24.0 L.

$V = \text{1710 mol } \times \dfrac{\text{24.0 L}}{\text{1 mol}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{3.785 L}} = \textbf{10 800 gal}$

3. Using an electric vehicle

(a) Theoretical energy used

$\text{Theor. Energy} = \text{347 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kWh}}{\text{5.2 mi}} = \text{66.7 kWh theor.}$

(b) Actual energy used

The power station is only 85 % efficient.

$\text{Actual energy used} = \text{66.7 kWh theor.} \times \dfrac{\text{100 kWh actual}}{\text{ 85 kWh theor.}}\times \dfrac{\text{3600 kJ}}{\text{1 kWh}}\\\\ = 2.82\times 10^{5} \text{ kJ}\$

(c) Combustion of CH₄

CH₄ + 2O₂ ⟶ CO₂ +2 H₂O

(d) Equivalent volume of CO₂

The heat of combustion of methane is -802.3 kJ·mol⁻¹

$V= 2.82\times 10^{5}\text{ kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol methane}}{\text{802.3 kJ}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CO$_{2}$} }{\text{1 mol methane}} \times \dfrac{ \text{24.0 L}}{ \text{1 mol CO$_{2}$}}\\\\ \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{3.875 L}} = \textbf{2180 gal}$

4. Comparison

$\dfrac{V_{\text{gasoline}}}{V_{\text{electric}}} = \dfrac{10800}{2180} = 5.0\\\\ \text{An gasoline-powered vehicle has }\\ \boxed{\textbf{ five times the carbon footprint}}\text{ of an electric vehicle.}$

List three branches life<br>Science and describe what studied in each?

Mama L [17]

Answer:

First off Life sciences are anything concerned with the study of a living organisms. So ones that would be included would be, microbiology biology, botany, zoology, ecology, genetics and medicine, from what the dictionary states

Explanation:

Biology is the natural science that studies life and living organisms. Which also includes molecular interactions, including their physical structure.

Genetics, is the study of heredity and or the variation of inherited characteristics that we get from family.

Microbiology, is the branch of science which deals with microorganisms.

Let me know if this helps, if not I'll continue researching.

AleksAgata [21]

Hrxn = Q reaction / mol of reaction
mol of reaction = M * V = 10 * 1 = 10 mmol = 0.01 mol
Q water = m * C * (Tf - Ti)
= (10 + 10) (4.184) (26-20) = 502.08 J
Q reaction = - Q water = -502.08 J
Hrxn = -502.08 / (0.01) = - 50208 J = - 50.21 kJ/mol

Which of these 2A elements has the largest atomic radius?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we move from top to bottom in a group then there occurs an increase in atomic size of the atoms due to increase in the number of electrons.

For example, in group 2A elements beryllium is the smallest in size whereas radium being at the bottom is the largest in size.

Also, atomic number of beryllium is 4 and atomic number of radium is 88.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options radium is the 2A element which has the largest atomic radius.
