1 answer:

3 0

A gas with a vapor density greater than that of air, would be most effectively displaced out off a vessel by ventilation.

The two following principles determine the type of ventilation: Considering the impact of the contaminant's vapour density and either positive or negative pressure is applied.

Consider a vertical tank that is filled with methane gas. Methane would leak out if we opened the top hatch since its vapour density is far lower than that of air. A second opening could be built at the bottom to greatly increase the process' efficiency.

A faster atmospheric turnover would follow from air being pulled in via the bottom while the methane was vented out the top. The rate of natural ventilation will increase with the difference in vapour density. Numerous gases that require ventilation are either present in fairly low concentrations or have vapor densities close to one.

A solution is made by mixing equal masses of methanol, CH4O, and ethanol, C2H6O. Determine the mole fraction of each component t

Serggg [28]

Answer: mole fraction of methanol = 0.590

mole fraction of ethanol = 0.410

Explanation:

We are given:

Equal masses of methanol $CH_4O$ and ethanol $C_2H_6O$ are mixed.

let the mass be x g.

Calculating the moles of methanol in the solution, by using the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{xg}{32.04g/mol}$

Calculating the moles of ethanol in the solution, by using the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{xg}{46.07g/mol}$

To calculate the mole fraction of methanol, we use the equation:

$\chi_{methanol}=\frac{n_{methanol}}{n_{methaol}+n_{ethanol}}$

$\chi_{methanol}=\frac{\frac{xg}{32.04g/mol}}{\frac{xg}{32.04g/mol}+\frac{xg}{46.07g/mol}}=0.590$

To calculate the mole fraction of ethanol, we use the equation:

$\chi_{ethanol}=\frac{n_{ethanol}}{n_{methaol}+n_{ethanol}}$

$\chi_{ethanol}=\frac{\frac{xg}{46.07g/mol}}{\frac{xg}{32.04g/mol}+\frac{xg}{46.07g/mol}}=0.410$

Thus mole fraction of methanol is 0.590 and mole fraction of ethanol 0.410 in three significant figures.

A sample contains 16. 75 g of the radioisotope U-236 and 50. 25 g of its daughter isotope, Th-232. How long did it take for deca

garri49 [273]

The time taken for the isotope to decay is 46 million years.

We'll begin by calculating the number of half-lives that has elapsed. This can be obtained as follow:

Original amount (N₀) = 50.25 g

Amount remaining (N) = 16.75

Number of half-lives (n) =?

2ⁿ = N₀ / N

2ⁿ = 50.25 / 16.75

2ⁿ = 3

Take the log of both side

Log 2ⁿ = 3

nLog 2 = Log 3

Divide both side by log 2

n = Log 3 / Log 2

n = 2

Finally, we shall determine the time.

Half-life (t½) = 23 million years

Number of half-lives (n) = 2

Time (t) =?

t = n × t½

t = 2 × 23

t = 46 million years

2. Problem: Is colored or black and white text more easily remembered? Hypothesis: If the text is colored, then the text is more

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

This question contains a lot of subsections. Please find the variables to each question below

Explanation:

Hypothesis is a testable explanation to a scientific question. It aims at proffering a testable solution to an observed problem. It usually goes in an IF, THEN format.

Dependent variable is the variable being measured in an experiment, while the independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or changed by the experimenter.

The control group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment while constant is the variable that is kept unchanged for all groups in the experiment.

Based on this explanation, find the answers to the hypothesis, independent variable, dependent variable, constant, and control groups to each question.

2. Dependent variable: How easy it is to remember

Independent variable: Color of the text

Control: Group given Black and White text to read

Constants: Same text

3. Hypothesis: If the temperature is increased, THEN the speed of ants increases or move faster

Independent variable: TEMPERATURE

Dependent variable: SPEED OF ANTS

Control: Ants placed in room temperature

Constants: SAME KIND OF ANTS

4. Hypothesis: IF the pH of the soil is acidic or alkaline, THEN the growth of strawberries will be inhibited

Independent variable: pH of soil

Dependent variable: Growth of strawberries

Control: Strawberries grown in a Neutral pH soil

Constants: Same type of plants (strawberries)

5. Hypothesis: IF caffeine is taken, then the blood pressure will be increased or raised.

Independent variable: CAFFEINE

Dependent variable: BLOOD PRESSURE

Control: Group given no caffeine

Constants: Same amount of caffeine

6. Hypothesis: IF music is played, THEN the heart rate increases

Independent variable: MUSIC

Dependent variable: HEART RATE

Control: Groups placed where no music is played

Constants: Same type of music, same time music runs for etc.

7. Hypothesis: IF bleach is present/used, THEN bacteria will die

Independent variable: Bleach

Dependent variable: Death of bacteria

Control: Bacteria given no bleach

Constants: Same species of bacteria, Same type of bleach
