The manometer is the device used to measure the pressure exerted by the gas and the liquids. At a pressure of 760 mmHg, the pressure of a gas is 623 mm Hg. Thus, option b is correct.

<h3>What is a manometer?</h3>

A manometer is an instrument used to estimate the pressure of the gauge and not the atmosphere.

Given,

Atmospheric pressure (P atm) = 760 mmHg

Height of the mercury column (P Hg) = 137 mm Hg

Substituting values,

P atm = P gas + P Hg

P gas = P atm - P Hg

P gas = 760 mm Hg - 137 mm Hg

= 623 mm Hg

Therefore, option b. 623 mm Hg is the pressure of the gas.

Using the following standard reduction potentials, Fe3+(aq) + e- → Fe2+(aq) E° = +0.77 V Ni2+(aq) + 2 e- → Ni(s) E° = -0.23 V ca
lina2011 [118]

<u>Answer:</u> The above reaction is non-spontaneous.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given chemical reaction:

Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2Fe^{2+}(aq.)\rightarrow 2Fe^{3+}(aq.)+Ni(s)

Here, nickel is getting reduced because it is gaining electrons and iron is getting oxidized because it is loosing electrons.

We know that:

E^o_{(Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+})}=0.77V\\E^o_{(Ni^{2+}/Ni)}=-0.23V

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

To calculate the E^o_{cell} of the reaction, we use the equation:

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

E^o_{cell}=-0.23-0.77=-1.0V

Relationship between standard Gibbs free energy and standard electrode potential follows:

\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}

As, the standard electrode potential of the cell is coming out to be negative for the above cell. Thus, the standard Gibbs free energy change of the reaction will become positive making the reaction non-spontaneous.

Hence, the above reaction is non-spontaneous.

A decrease in height of a column in a mercury barometer means that
insens350 [35]

Answer:

increase in the air pressure

Explanation:

The barometer is a device that is used for measuring the air pressure. It is a device that uses mercury in order to show the air pressure. The mercury reacts easily to the changes in the air pressure, so it is a nice indicator for it. The air pressure can simply be defined as the weight of the air masses, and the pressure they make it because of it on the objects. The lower the air pressure, the higher up the mercury will go, as it will experience less pressure from the air, and the higher the air pressure, the lower the mercury will drop, as it will experience more pressure from the air.

Which of the following reactions is the least energetic? Question 18 options: ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi ATP + H2O → AMP + PPi AMP + H
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is AMP+H2O→ Adenosine + pi

Explanation:

The above reaction is least energetic because there is no phosphoanhydride bond present with adenosine mono phosphate.Phospho anhydride bond is an energy rich bond.

As a result hydrolysis of AMP generates very little amount of energy in comparison to the hydrolysis of ATP and ADP.

Which of the following would be a reasonable synthesis of CH3CH2CH2CH2OH?Group of answer choices
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

B. 1-Butene rightarrow (1) BH3: THF (2)H202, OH-

Explanation:

In the hydroboration of alkenes, an alkene is hydrated to form an alcohol with anti-Markovnikov orientation.

the reagent BH₃:THF is the way that borane is used in organic reactions. The BH₃ adds to the double bond of an alkene to form an alkyl borane. Peroxide hydrogen in basic medium oxidizes the alkyl borane to form an alcohol. Indeed, hydroboration-oxidation converts alkenes to alcohols by adding water through the double bond, with anti-Markovnikov orientation.
