enyata [817]1 year ago
7 0

The downward pressure on the hg in barometer is <u>the same as</u> the pressure of the atmosphere.

The atmospheric pressure or barometric pressure is the force exerted by the air in the atmosphere on the earth's surface.

The atmospheric pressure is caused by air molecules colliding with the surface. The atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 101 kPa and at the cruising altitude of a passenger plane it is 27 kPa.

The atmospheric pressure decrease as the height of a surface above ground level increases.

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

A barometer is a measuring instrument used to measure the atmospheric pressure or weight of the air, which is useful for making weather predictions.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of alpha D gluose and beta D fructose linked together by beta 2,alpha1 glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

The specificity of glycosidic linkage very much essential to choose the substrate for the synthesis of specific disaccharide.

 For example sucrose contain beta 2,alpha1 glycosidic linkage that means the hydroxyl group of anomeric carbon of one monosaccharide(fructose) should remain in beta conformation and the hydroxyl group of other monosaccharide(glucose) should remain in alpha conformation.

How many milliliters of water at 25.0°C with a density of 0.997 g/mL must be mixed with 163 mL of coffee at 97.9°C so that the r
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

248 mL

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat absorbed by water (Qw) and the heat released by the coffee (Qc) is zero.

Qw + Qc = 0

Qw = -Qc [1]

We can calculate each heat using the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

where,

  • c: specific heat
  • m: mass
  • ΔT: change in the temperature

163 mL of coffee with a density of 0.997 g/mL have a mass of:

163 mL × 0.997 g/mL = 163 g

From [1]

Qw = -Qc

cw × mw × ΔTw = -cc × mc × ΔTc

mw × ΔTw = -mc × ΔTc

mw × (54.0°C-25.0°C) = -163 g × (54.0°C-97.9°C)

mw × 29.0°C = 163 g × 43.9°C

mw = 247 g

The volume corresponding to 247 g of water is:

247 g × (1 mL/0.997 g) = 248 mL
